Summary
Sexual shame and purity culture teach us that sexuality is bad and inherently sinful, and I’m inviting you to question that narrative this week. The truth is your sexuality is neutral, but you may have been taught that your sexuality is something to be feared.
Hear my thoughts on healthy sexuality and what using your sexuality for good can look like. I’m exploring the key concepts that will help you reduce the shame you’re experiencing, busting the most common myths about porn that might be holding you back, and addressing the moral panic that comes from porn use.

| 0:23.5 | thousands and thousands of lives. I'm your host, Sarah Brewer. Hey, everyone, welcome to today's |
| 0:29.9 | podcast episode. So here's what we're going to do for the next couple of episodes. I have decided I want to |
| 0:35.4 | share a lot of a new milestone that I'm putting into the program. So we've |
| 0:39.8 | just added some new milestones, one specifically on shame and one specifically on healthy sexuality is |

| 0:50.1 | I want to share it with all my podcast listeners too. The reason I want to share this with you is because |
| 0:54.5 | number one, you deserve the education around this. I'm going to get into, you know, a lot of all of |
| 0:59.9 | that, what that means throughout this series. Number two, I want to help you reduce shame. And so there |
