In Bed With Alexa: Have Better Sex Smashing Good Girl Myths & Taking Up Space (ft. Catherine Drysdale)
Sexologist Alexa Andre (@sexwithalexa) is joined by Catherine Drysdale—sex & relationship coach—who’s on a mission to help women and femmes unlearn the “good girl” scripts that keep them small, quiet, and out of touch with their desires.
We talk about:
• What “good girl conditioning” really means and how it shows up in our lives
• The difference between Good Girl Conditioning and being a "good girl" in a power dynamic• The pressure to be nice, palatable, and liked (and how that impacts our relationships and sex lives)• Why so many of us have trouble asking for what we want—especially in bed• The link between patriarchy and the fear of being “too much”• How to begin reclaiming your voice, your wants, and your power• Ways to get comfortable with discomfort, especially when it comes to setting boundaries• Rewriting your relationship with shame, worthiness, and sexual expression
This is a permission slip to take up space and live more fully, more loudly, and more authentically.
✨ At the end of the episode, we also chat about how this work spills into dating, communication, and how to support other women on the same journey.
