Shameless Sex
Noticing Shame in the Body
Nazanin guides tuning into somatic signals—heart racing, tension—and warns against experiential avoidance.
Are You Letting Shame Quietly Run the Show in Your Intimate Life?
Join us as we dive back into the powerful conversation from the launch of Intimacy Rewired, Amy and co-facilitator Ian Stratton's six-week online program that helps you break free from disconnection and cultivate deeper, more playful intimacy. This episode feels as if you are a part of the workshop, so consider sitting down with a pen and paper to get the full classroom experience. Packed with expert insights from returning guests Dr. Nazanin Moali and Keeley Rankin, MA, as they share their wisdom on building connection, overcoming shame, and creating safety in your body and relationships.
Here's what you'll learn:
* How shame shows up in sex and relationships, and why it's often misunderstood
* Practical tools for working with shame as a teacher, rather than letting it limit your pleasure and connection
* Actionable practices to create safety in your body and partnerships, laying the foundation for deeper intimacy and hotter sex
*How to negotiate boundaries and speak you "no"
* The importance of embodied and sustainable connection in your intimate life
