54. Trust Yourself to Trust Your Sex

In this new series, Sam explores how she found safety in sexual expression.  Five years ago, she felt disconnected from her own sexuality and body, numb, pressured by expectation, sexually closed and wondering if she just wasn’t a sexual person.  Now, she feels so alive and expressive, empowered, and joyful in her sexual expression.  In this series, she breaks down some of the tools, practices, and mindset shifts that helped her make this truly incredible transformation. 

In this episode, Sam discusses how essential it is to be honest with yourself and what you want to feel empowered sexually.  If you don’t feel comfortable saying “no” to anything or anyone that doesn’t feel right, than you won’t trust your yes either.  To feel truly empowered sexually, you need to know how you are feeling and be able to articulate it.  Because if you can’t trust yourself to articulate what you want or need, there will be a part of you that always feels on-guard because you won’t know if you are safe.  In this episode, Sam also discusses using discernment when selecting partners, navigating people pleasing and disappointment, and how to expand your ability to know what you are feeling.
