Owning Your Sexual Self

Owning Your Sexual Self

Author: Rachel Maine Language: English Episodes: 100
Rachel Maine has spent years working as a sex coach and educator, and her work centers on a single, powerful idea: pleasure is a personal compass. In her Owning Your Sexual Self podcast, she translates that one-on-one guidance into candid conversations meant to dismantle shame and spark curiosity. This isn't a sterile lecture series; it's a lively, often hilarious, and consistently frank exploration of what it means to fully inhabit your body and desires. Episodes delve into the practicalities of sexual health and wellness, but also touch on the entrepreneurial and personal growth aspects of building a confident intimate life. You'll hear discussions that range from the physiological to the psychological, all filtered through a sex-positive perspective that celebrates individual experience. Rachel believes that understanding and claiming what brings you joy is a foundational form of self-improvement, as crucial as any fitness or business goal. So, expect real talk, the occasional swear word, and a refreshing lack of judgment. Tuning into this podcast is like getting thoughtful, actionable advice from a knowledgeable friend who isn't afraid to laugh at the absurdities along the way. It's about moving from uncertainty or silence into a place of informed, empowered choice.
