This is Cultivate a Good Life, episode 79,

Understanding Sexual Development

with Dr. Jennifer Finlason Fife. Welcome back friends. Are you so excited because this is a bonus episode? We loved

our conversation with Dr. Jennifer Finlay's in five so much. We couldn't help

but ask her some more questions to get

some further clarity on this super important topic. Just to know if you haven't

listened to episode 77 press pause go to episode 77 and

then come right back over here also I just wanted to say the disclaimer that

while all of our topics we believe totally help you to

cultivate a good life and that does play into your family, this may not be an

episode that you want to listen to with your kids as there will be some pretty

direct vernacular used as we discuss

teaching your children about sexual development.

What's cool about it too is that it's not just teaching your children about sexual development but

didn't you feel like as we were talking with her that we were understanding some

things better for ourselves right and just like we said at the beginning of episode 77 we want to just make sure that you understand that it's such it's such a gift and such an honor and privilege to be able to absorb what makes sense for you, what feels right for you,

what feels true to you, and it's okay if you don't totally love or agree with every viewpoint that's shared, but man she's wicked smart and so generous with the way that she's sharing her knowledge.

Absolutely and like we said before I think one of the greatest blessings is to listen to information and take it in and then we all have the ability inside of us to decide what is true for us.

So especially when you're talking about an area of sexuality.

There's many different value structures in ways you teach it in your family or because of your faith.

And so the information that is being presented today that Dr. Fife presents to us today,

you have the opportunity to find to be true or not.
