If you freeze up during intimate moments, feel guilty about pleasure, or can't shake the feeling that something's "wrong" with your desires – you're not alone. Religious trauma might be the missing piece you've been searching for.Meet Ann Russo – a therapist and author whose story will surprise you. Growing up in a polyamorous household with gay fathers in the 1980s, Ann had to hide her family's truth, calling her dad's partner "the roommate" out of fear. Ironically, this painful experience of secrecy and shame became the foundation for her life's work.Today, Ann has turned her trauma into transformation. She's the founder of a practice serving marginalized communities, holds degrees in theology with a focus on queer liberation, and is pioneering a revolutionary approach to healing high control faith systems. Her secret? She doesn't make you choose between your healing and your beliefs.In this powerful conversation, Ann reveals how religious upbringing directly impacts sexual function – and offers hope for anyone trying to reconcile their spirituality with their sexuality. Whether you're staying in your faith, leaving it, or somewhere in between, Ann's approach meets you exactly where you are.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTSSexual empowerment redefined – it's about authentic choice, not performanceReligious recovery without judgment – healing while honoring your spiritual journeyThe hypervigilance reality – how current political climate affects sexuality and safetyMarginalized community support – Ann's sliding-scale practice serving underrepresented folksNon-monogamy myths busted – the real work behind alternative relationshipsStress and sexuality connection – why trauma makes intimacy nearly impossibleLINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE CAN BE FOUND HERE ON THE WEBSITE.POWER OF PLEASURE | Join our FREE Live Online Summit - April 28-29, 2026 featuring 12 leading intimacy experts in conscious sexuality, desire and erotic healing.

You're crushing professional goals while your intimate life crumbles. The modern successful woman faces an impossible paradox: society demands she operate in masculine energy all day (achieving, doing, conquering), then magically shift to feminine energy at home (receiving, flowing, being). But nobody taught us how to make this transition. This disconnect isn't a personal failure—it's a systemic issue affecting high-achieving women everywhere. The result? Depleted libido, sexless marriages, chronic burnout, and a nagging feeling that despite external success, something vital is missing. In this episode, intuitive coach, social worker, and author Avalaura Gaither reveals why the same drive that makes you successful at work is sabotaging your sexual empowerment and intimate relationships.THIS EPISODE IS ESSENTIAL IF YOU:Feel exhausted by the demands of being "everything to everyone"Struggle to shift from work mode to intimate connectionHave achieved external success but feel empty insideExperience low libido despite wanting passionate intimacyCarry sexual trauma that impacts current relationshipsWant to access your intuition but don't know howAre ready to break the cycle of martyrdom and burnoutLINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE CAN BE FOUND HEREPOWER OF PLEASURE | Join our FREE Live Online Summit - April 28-29, 2026 featuring 12 leading intimacy experts in conscious sexuality, desire and erotic healing.
