Shame is an emotional experience that confirms our biggest
insecurities. S*x is a sacred space that requires us to be naked physically,
emotionally and spiritually. We don't want to think of shame here, rather we
decide that s*x "should" be: passionate, spontaneous, simple yet, s*x
with your intimate partner can trigger shame. Join us today as we discuss the
reasons why we can feel shame around physical intimacy. George and Laurie lead
listeners through a valuable conversation on what parts of an individual
become exposed in this vulnerable place and how to begin to make sense of those
internal messages. George reminds us that the antidote to shame is in
connection and humans are not meant to face shame in isolation. We explore the
deeper attachment themes present and Laurie highlights the dilemma of shame;
sharing shame with a loved one increases safety but we need safety to be able
to share shame. If a s*xual experience with your partner has ever felt like
rejection or failure this episode is a must listen to help you understand how
to address the "relationship ouch" and open up a conversation with
your partner that is full of healthy relationship risk taking. Make sure to

shame and keep it hot y'all!
