Summary

This week on Should I Delete That, we’re talking about sex.

Our guest is Catriona Boffard: clinical psychosexologist, psychotherapist and globally recognised expert on sex and relationships.

She’s here to help us understand the real reasons why so many of us often struggle with intimacy - and she explains that it’s often not *just* about sex.

With your questions in hand, in this episode we cover everything from orgasms and libido to shame, pleasure and desire. And one of the biggest things we took away from this conversation was that it’s normal to have questions about sex - and that it’s healthy to talk about problems that we may be having.

0:32.2	Okay, so before we get into this week's episode, we just want to say a quick thank you to
0:36.3	our sponsor, Ancient and Brave,
0:38.0	who, full disclosure, we were both using well before they sponsored us. Yes, I was already
0:43.6	obsessed with their true magnesium plus, and now I am fully converted. I take it every night before bed,
0:49.1	and I honestly sleep so much better, and like real sleep, not just crashing out on the sofa.
0:53.9	And I've been loving the true
0:55.4	hydration. I have it first thing in the morning. It's kind of become a part of my ritual, to be honest.
0:59.9	It's coconut water based, has magnesium, potassium, all the good stuff. And it actually hydrates you
1:04.6	properly, not just that I had a glass of water kind. Right. And I've been learning about this

1:20.3	and I swear it's made a difference to how I feel in the morning. Also, big love to ancient
1:25.0	and brave for being more than just a supplement brand. They are B-Corp certified, part of the 1% for the planet,
1:30.2	and now they actually donate 2% of sales to environmental causes.
1:34.0	They're also known for their award-winning range of collagen and neutropic blends,
