Summary
How do you balance your sensual self with being a parent? And what would you teach your kids about sensuality and sexual agency? In this one, Ev'Yan speaks with sexologist and educator, Shan Boodram, about what it's like for her to maintain her sensuality/sexuality as she is a parent for the first time. Shan talks about all the things she hopes to teach her kid from a sex education lens, what it looks like to dismantle old narratives of what being a mother "should" look like, and Ev'Yan shares their thoughts and feelings about her choice not to have children in this lifetime.

| 0:36.1 | Hey y'all. Happy New Year. Maybe it's a little late to say that, but who cares? Happy New Year. I hope that 2020 is treating you well. I hope that you are feeling lots of ease and safety in your body. |
| 0:57.0 | I am so happy to be back in your ears after taking a little break from this podcast. |
