Your Body Remembers Pleasure Healing Sexual Trauma & Genital Injury: Restoring Pleasure After Surgery, Scar Tissue & Circumcision with Diane and Sophia
What happens when sexual sensation feels lost after trauma or surgery?
Can the body truly heal?
In this deeply moving episode, two courageous women share their journeys of reclaiming pleasure, embodiment, and trust in their bodies after profound pelvic trauma.
Diane speaks about recovering from multiple surgeries following complications from a medical implant, and the long path of restoring comfort, sensation, and connection in her body.
Sophia shares her experience healing from childhood genital cutting and early sexual trauma — and how learning to feel safe in her body again transformed her relationship to intimacy and pleasure.
While their stories are very different, both discovered something essential:
Healing wasn’t only physical.
It required safety, touch, emotional release, and reconnecting with the nervous system.
Together we explore:
• Why trauma lives in both tissues and the nervous system
• Scar tissue, sensation loss, and restoring blood flow
• The role of safe, attuned touch
• Rebuilding trust with your body after medical or sexual violations
• Trauma release practices and nervous system regulation
• How pleasure can return — even when doctors say it won’t
• Learning to listen to your body’s boundaries and desires
• Compassion as the foundation of sexual healing
