Summary
*Note: This episode was done during the era when this podcast used to be called The Sexually Liberated Woman.
How do you feel about talking about sexual desire? In this one, Ev'Yan talks about hers—the way it's fluctuated over the years, the shame and stigma attached to talking about that fluctuation, and what she's learned about sexual desire through her struggles to understand it.
Ev'Yan also talks about where she's at with her sexual desire these days (spoiler: a much better place!) and shares how you can get answers if you're experiencing frustrations with your libido, too.

| 0:44.0 | I'm Avian Whitney, and this is the sexually liberated woman. |
| 0:49.5 | How's it going? |
| 0:51.1 | I know it's been a while since a new episode has popped into your feed and I'm sorry for the radio |
| 0:57.3 | silence. Some major transitions have been happening in my life recently and I needed to put the |
| 1:04.3 | podcast on hold while I focused on getting things grounded again. Don't worry, none of this stuff is bad. Actually, a lot of this |
| 1:14.6 | is really, really good and I can't wait to share what's been happening behind the scenes very soon. |
| 1:21.7 | While we wait for all that to be revealed, I wanted to talk about something that's been on my mind a lot lately. |
| 1:30.4 | It's something I've struggled with in my sexuality since I started having sex, and it's honestly |

| 2:20.4 | attracted to each other, so infatuated with each other, and whenever we were together, we literally |
| 2:26.4 | couldn't keep our hands off of each other. And my God, the sex we were having during this time. |
| 2:34.1 | We were so smitten with each other that we were |
| 2:37.2 | having sex constantly. Since neither of us had our own private living spaces at the time, |
