If You Struggle to Enjoy Sex, You Are Not Broken
16m · PublishedOne thing I hear pretty often from people who were socialized as women is some version of:
I don't want to have sex as much as my partner…
I don't actually care about sex that much…
I don't feel that turned on
What's wrong with me???
I want to clear this up once and for all: Nothing is wrong with you. You are not broken.
And in this week's episode we get into some of the reasons you might be feeling like something's wrong with you and why that is 100% not the case.

Self-Compassion in Relationships & Life with Allison McManis
57m · PublishedOn this episode I got to sit down with my friend Allison McManis and talk about what self-compassion is and why it's so important for thriving in relationships and life.
Allison is a coach who works with habitual over-extenders. (Perfectionists, people-pleasers, and overachievers, I'm looking at you! If you fall into this category, today's episode is going to be extra helpful for you.)
Self-compassion and radical self-acceptance, which are huge themes here on the podcast, are a big part of Allison's work, so I was thrilled to have this conversation with her!
