Safety: Why Feeling Safe Enables Pleasure

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

Dr. Nazanin Moali, a sex and relationship expert with extensive training in trauma and sexual wellness, brings her expertise to the conversation. With her postdoctoral training and experience hosting a top-rated Sexology podcast, Dr. Moali offers compassionate guidance on relating to shame and building deeper connections. Keeley Rankin, a sex therapist and relationship coach, shares her mindful, body-based approach to creating safety and intimacy. With her Master's in Counseling Psychology and experience helping individuals and couples overcome intimacy challenges, Keeley offers practical practices to help you feel more grounded and present.

Tune in to this episode and discover how to build more safety, ease, and intimacy in your relationships—starting from the inside out. And stay tuned for the next launch of Intimacy Rewired by signing up for the Shameless Sex newsletter. Trust us, you won't want to miss it!
