Jordan & I talk about the "before & after" of working with your sexual energy. I discuss my own journey, the beliefs about sex that will change, myths about orgasm and how the narrative of doctors is often wrong (yes, everyone can have minutes long orgasms and all different types), and what changes in the rest of your life when you're connected with this energy. Jordan also talks about how it feels for men to be with a women who have done this type of work.

A quick update to tell you I'm taking a little break from episodes! I will likely be back in some amount of weeks :) xo

** this break has gone on much longer than intended & isn't ending anytime soon!!

Jordan and I talk about many things under the sun, such as going to bed and waking up with the sun, the comment our appliance installer made about our handiness and what we are doing now, Jordan chopping wood and Demetra planting the garden, Jordan’s new program, Jordan’s dreams, the cute things about our island, what we had to let go of in getting married, and much much more

In this episode Jess and I talk about our past experiences with men following us home, cat-calling, and being predatory, and what to do in these situations. We discuss verbal boundary setting, how to tell someone you’re not interested in communicating with them, what signs to look for when someone might be dangerous, and the various ways a situation can escalate. We also talk about our own experiences with self-defense training as women, different types of martial arts, and how important it can be to have the knowing that you can physically protect yourself. We also both love men and share the perspective that having had negative experiences with some men does not extrapolate to men in general, and we talk about shifting this story, our appreciation for men, and the protectiveness of men around us.

In this episode (and about 2 years into our marriage), Jordan and I discuss what it was like for us to get engaged. Jordan talks about having anxiety and questioning everything, I talk about how I handled him feeling that way, and we both talk about the many different things our minds did to try to protect us. We especially focus on the societal narrative for how you "should" be feeling during this time, versus the reality of how most people actually feel! Engagement anxiety is a very real thing, and it's not a "condition" as much as it is just very normal. If we don't work through these feelings during our engagement, it's likely they'll surface in the first year of marriage. These life events are a big deal, and we're here to talk you through it!
