Summary

This is a Fan Fav episode. Lisa Bilyeu sits down with Dr. Emily Morse—renowned sex educator, host of the "Sex with Emily" podcast, and all-around confidence booster—for a candid conversation about building true confidence in and out of the bedroom. Emily shares why confidence isn’t a final destination but an ongoing journey rooted in self-awareness, acceptance, and healing from past relationships and limiting beliefs. Together, Lisa and Emily get real about body image, vulnerability, and the myth that someone else needs to "complete" us. They break down practical ways to boost body confidence, from mirror exercises to finding joy in movement and fostering positive self-talk. Get ready for honest strategies on dating, sex, and relationships—from why you should rethink that "body count" conversation, to reclaiming your right to pleasure and authentic communication with your partner. Plus, Emily and Lisa talk about aging, changing bodies, and how we can reprogram our minds for confidence at any stage of life. If you’ve ever struggled with feeling good in your skin, silencing your inner critic, or showing up authentically, this episode is a must-listen. Emily brings her trademark wisdom, warmth, and straight talk as she helps every woman realize: confidence isn’t just sexy—it’s your birthright.
