418: How to Find Your Way Out of the Shame Abyss

Brave Love Great Sex – Couples Therapy Podcast

Shame is an emotional experience that confirms our biggest

insecurities. S*x is a sacred space that requires us to be naked physically,

emotionally and spiritually. We don't want to think of shame here, rather we

decide that s*x "should" be: passionate, spontaneous, simple yet, s*x

with your intimate partner can trigger shame. Join us today as we discuss the

reasons why we can feel shame around physical intimacy. George and Laurie lead

listeners through a valuable conversation on what parts of an individual

become exposed in this vulnerable place and how to begin to make sense of those

internal messages. George reminds us that the antidote to shame is in

connection and humans are not meant to face shame in isolation. We explore the

deeper attachment themes present and Laurie highlights the dilemma of shame;

sharing shame with a loved one increases safety but we need safety to be able

to share shame. If a s*xual experience with your partner has ever felt like

rejection or failure this episode is a must listen to help you understand how

to address the "relationship ouch" and open up a conversation with

your partner that is full of healthy relationship risk taking. Make sure to

shame and keep it hot y'all!
