This is the Authentic Sex Podcast, real-life conversations about sex, pleasure and relationships.

I'm your host, Juliet Allen.

Welcome to episode number 135 of the Authentic Sex Podcast.

My name is Juliet Allen. I'm a sexologist and sex and relationship

coach. And today I'm speaking with my friend Stacey O'Gorman about returning to single life

after divorce and everything that comes with that. We speak about how Stacey navigated this time in her life

and how she continues to navigate it, how her orgasmic experiences have changed, how to communicate

effectively, how to ask for what we want. We also speak about Dignitism, which is a new word that Stacy created, which I've adopted,

which is referring to what happens when we feel hypnotized by sexual energy with somebody else,

which is a really great topic and we had a lot of laughs speaking about it.

This is such a fun episode.

I hope you enjoy.

A little bit about Stacey though.

Stacey is a former London bakery owner and cookbook author and has swapped one pleasure

for another.

So Stacey is now working as, she's a holistic

sexuality student and she's the host of a new podcast called Finger Food, which is all about

sexuality, identity and intimacy. And Stacey's mission is to help create safer spaces for people

to talk about sexuality and

pleasure so that people can feel less alone and experience more freedom within themselves.

She is an absolutely amazing woman.

We have so much fun when we get together and we really enjoyed recording this episode and hope that you enjoy listening to it.
