Summary

When you feel good in your body and embrace your sexual side, you show up in a more empowered, confident way. Welcome to this special “V-Day” edition of Tea Time with Mary. In this episode, Mary discusses ways that have personally helped her to be more confident in the bedroom. What happens when you use sex to seek validation? And what can you do to show yourself a little more love? As Mary states, your body is for YOU and feeling pleasure in your body is not shameful, it’s natural and needs to be embraced more by women everywhere. So, let’s celebrate this V-Day by celebrating ourselves, our bodies and our sexuality a little bit more! Books mentioned: Come As You Are by Emily Nagoski and Pussy: A Reclamation by Regina Thomashauer. Products mentioned: plusOne makes affordable, high-quality sex toys that you can get at WalMart, Amazon, or Target all under $35! plusOne is breaking down barriers and disrupting outdated taboos regarding self-pleasure with their line of beautiful, affordable and approachable vibrators and sexual wellness products. P.S. If you’re not in a relationship right now, please don’t let this be a day where you beat yourself up about it. At the end of the day, V-Day is a highly-commercialized holiday and literally means nothing. Take this as a day to show extra love for yourself, just because.

0:31.7	So she says, hello, my chickens.
0:33.6	I've also heard, like, loves, loves, babes. I don't know. Those don't feel like me. Internet friends.

Welcome to another episode of Tea Time with Mary.

1:10.0	how do we be confident? I don't know about you, but I used to hate
1:15.5	taking off my clothes in front of somebody. I would hate sex with the lights on. I wouldn't even
