Summary

In today’s episode of Let’s Get Vulnerable, I’m joined by my dear friend and the internet’s favorite sex expert, Dr. Tara, for an honest, empowering, and deeply human conversation about sex, shame, and secure connection. We talk about why so many of us feel disconnected from pleasure, how sexual empowerment is about so much more than sex itself, and why learning to communicate your desires is one of the most powerful things you can do for your relationship and your life. This episode is warm, real, and expansive, and it will invite you to rethink what healthy, securely attached intimacy truly looks like.

Inside the Episode:

  1. Why sexual empowerment starts with self-knowledge, not performance and how shame around sex gets wired early in our lives
  2. How securely attached sex is built on emotional safety, communication, and feeling worthy of receiving (and why that kind of sex is not boring)
  3. Practical ways to start talking about sex with your partner, even if it feels scary, including how curiosity and compassion change everything

If this conversation resonated with you, I highly recommend Dr. Tara’s new book, How Do You Like It? A Guide for Getting What You Want in Bed. It’s a foundational, shame-free guide to understanding your sexuality, communicating your needs, and creating deeply connected intimacy.
