Corona Brady

I’ve been watching Corona’s journey for a while and love what she shares. But one of her posts* on Instagram a little while ago really caught my attention and prompted me to reach out. She spoke about divorce being the catalyst for an extraordinary life.  “Growth happens when we can lean in and embrace the discomfort and the unknown. No transformation occurs in the known.” CORONA BRADY She was wonderful enough to accept my invitation to talk about that - and I’m especially grateful - because I think we’re all experiencing huge and unexpected changes in our lives right now.  Whether it’s divorce, a relationship breakdown, a lost job, business failure or unexpected life shift - I also believe that these things that we often think of as devastating at the time - can really propel our lives to somewhere different and much more amazing than we had planned.  Listen in as I talk with Corona, and she shares her journey through change. Making the decision to divorce What gets you through those early stages  Grieving for the hopes and dreams that we had for the future and how to cope with that How to work through feeling like you’ve lost your identity The importance of having a spiritual practice been while transitioning   I also ask Corona about her Kundalini yoga and the launch of her online school - which is such perfect timing for everyone who can’t get to their regular yoga session right now.    *CORONA’S POST: At 37 I thought my life was over when I chose to make a scary but very brave decision that would change the whole course and direction of my life.  But today at 39 I realise my life is only beginning and I’m excited for this new chapter. Our bravery and courage will always be rewarded for!  It’s been an incredibly tough 2+ years (I’m not going to sugar coat it, I’ve literally walked through the fires of transformation) but I’m now out the other side and I’ve so much to share with you on topics such as conscious relationships, polarity in romantic relationships, when you know it’s time to leave a relationship, divorce/separation, the real inner work that’s required after the collapse of a marriage, grief, losing everything and beginning again, dealing with lies and deceit in relationship, opening yourself up to love again, living as an awakened empowered conscious woman, collapse of and rebuilding your foundations, working through sexual repression plus so much more! Growth happens when we can lean in and embrace the discomfort and the unknown. No transformation occurs in the known.

How heartbreaking change ignited an extraordinary life with Kundalini teacher, Corona Brady

Every now and then some alone time is great but social interactions are a massive part of our lives.  Humans are wired for connection. What happens when we don’t get it?    Well, my loves, that’s what many of us are now discovering.  About 2.6 billion people on the planet are now in lock-down - that’s about one third of the world’s population.   The reality is that for many of us, that means literally being alone, without in person interactions, or physical touch 24 hours a day. With the possibility of lockdown continuing for weeks still to come, I want to share some advice for surviving on your own.     Footnote: I think we’ve all seen with the spread of coronavirus that our lives can change faster than we ever could have imagined. While much of that change has been difficult and painful - know that our lives can also change quickly in the opposite direction.     Know that there is light at the end of this tunnel. Maybe you’re even feeling it now?    This won’t last forever - and we still have so much to be grateful for. Do your best to take care of yourself right now. I truly believe this is an opportunity for us like no other.   To follow my journey and see more of how I’m getting through lockdown, come on over and follow me on Insta as isiahmckimmie.sexologist. I love hearing from my podcast listers over there!   Stay safe and take excellent care of you!

How to survive social distancing when you live alone

How many times have you thought ‘he’s driving me crazy’ or ‘she’s driving me crazy’ this week? Living with your partner isn’t easy at the best of times. Silly arguments often stem from minor things like leaving washing up in the sink or forgetting to put the toilet seat down. But usually, these aren’t the end of the world. However, when you’re stuck inside all day with your partner, having more interactions than usual, even the smallest thing can send you over the edge. That, on top of financial pressure, uncertainty, disruption of routine, trying to homeschool kids and a change in roles can make everything feel like one giant shit show at the moment.  If you are struggling with your partner right now, I want you to know you’re not alone - many of my clients are experiencing heightened tensions - and I’m getting a LOT of people reach out to me to ask for help. This is going to be make or break time for many relationships. I want this to be a “make it” time for you. A time that brings you even closer and shows you just how much you mean to each other. Today I’m sharing with you some practical tips to help you navigate this rollercoaster of a time, like:  Set boundaries on your time and attention Do your best to manage the kids together Try to keep structure and routine Be mindful of your own emotions + how you communicate Aim for empathy + understanding Continue to have ‘couple time’ together Reach out for other support Understand that your sex life might be affected  Stay safe and take excellent care of yourselves and each other! We are all going to come out of this stronger than we ever thought possible.

Your Guide to the G-Spot

It's no secret that I believe in the power of Tantra to help us change our lives and have incredible intimacy. Tantra has been my personal spiritual practice for over 10 years and I've used it to help transform the lives of thousands of people I've worked with. One of the most powerful teachings of Tantra for me, has been the incredible feelings of love it's helped me open to - and the intimacy I see it create between couples. First and foremost though, Tantra helps us connect more deeply to ourselves - so that we can connect more deeply with a partner. In this episode I'm diving deep into how Tantra can help us deepen intimacy and facilitate our own growth and self-awareness. Joining me is fellow Sexologist and Tantra Teacher, Waratah Kerlue. Waratah works with men, women and couples to inspire greater fulfilment within intimacy, sex, love and life. She's a Sexologist, Intimacy Consultant and Couples Therapist, highly skilled in helping you to achieve contentment, fulfilment and empowerment within sexuality and intimacy. Waratah takes a holistic approach to her work which is grounded in 20 years of mindfulness training, science-based advice and powerful practical tools. She's funny, wise and incredibly compassionate in her approach. Listen in as Waratah and I discuss:  The importance of starting with connection to ourselves The questions you need to ask on a first date to discover if someone is right for you Practical steps to discovering what you enjoy sexually The power of giving ourselves permission to ask for what we want in bed - and why that can actually be incredibly sexy How to talk to your partner about improving your relationship and sex life  I also open up about a recent experiment I did on another podcast and  Waratah and I share our favourite Tantra practices that you can try with a partner tonight. For more about Waratah check out her website or follow her on facebook @lovelifehealingtherapies.

Take love + intimacy deeper with Tantra

One of the most common questions that I get asked as a Tantra teacher and sexologist is: "How can I increase my sexual desire"? It might be that you’ve felt a steady decrease in desire, your partner has a higher sexual drive than you - or that your partner initiates sex at a time when you’re not really in the mood. You might concentrating on something important, in the middle of cooking dinner or just at a point in your cycle where you’re not really feeling it. I get it. I’ve been there too. But there’s something powerful - and empowering about being able to connect to our sexual energy and cultivate it at will. Sexual energy is life force energy. When we’re connected to it, we feel more energised and alive. We can engage more intimately with a partner and enjoy ourselves more sexually.

5 Tantra Practices to increase sexual desire

Hands up who ACTUALLY does their KEGELS? I think that pelvic floor exercises like kegels are one of those things that as women, we all know we 'should' be doing… But we might not be.  Or, like a lot of women who get in touch with me, you might be doing them, but be unsure if you’re doing it right.  I have my own perspectives on pelvic floor exercises, as thankfully, they’ve always been part of my Tantra practice. In Tantra, we use pelvic floor exercises to help us BALANCE our lower chakras, CONNECT to and cultivate sexual energy and increase our PLEASURE during sex.   But, I wanted to get the low-down from someone who’s studied from a western perspective in this area too.  In this episode of Wholehearted, I’m talking to women’s Pelvic Floor physiotherapist, Anna Scammell, from The Whole Mother. In this episode, you’ll hear:  Exactly how we should be doing our kegel exercises according to an expert How we can tell if we’re doing them right or not The different ways we should take care of our pelvic floor before, during and after pregnancy - and why this matters even if we’re not planning on having kids.  And you’ll also get Anna’s perspective on Vaginal eggs AND being able to weight lift coconuts!     LISTEN to the full episode THEN pass it onto your girlfriends, 'cause they need to hear this too!

How we should really be taking care of our pelvic floor

The very first time I walked into a Tantra workshop, I don’t think I was nervous. I don’t think I knew enough about Tantra to be nervous! I really didn’t know what Tantra was. I knew that it was spiritual - and that it had something to do with sex… but that was about it!  I would later learn that Tantra is a spiritual practice and a form of yoga and meditation.  Tantra totally changed my life and, in my journey to learn more about it, I ended up teaching.  Tantra is still part of what I do. Sometimes I share Tantra, but don’t necessarily call it Tantra. I use it with my clients at times to help couples stop arguments or to reconnect in the bedroom again. It can help women learn to orgasm for the first time, help stop sex being painful or help women feel more confident in their sexuality. When I mention Tantra to people - I get a whole lot of mixed responses.  Some people are excited and want to know more.  Some say ‘Oh Tantra - right, I’ve heard that Sting does Tantra and he has sex for 9 hours’.  I even once had a client say - ‘Omg, Tantra? Isn’t that group sex?’  So, if you’ve heard me mention Tantra and aren’t sure what it is - don’t worry. In this episode I’m going to share:  What exactly Tantra is (and clear up some of the myths and misconceptions around it) 6 ways Tantra can help you have mind-blowing sex How Tantra can help you have a more loving, connected, harmonious relationship And how you can use Tantra in your own life, right away.  I look forward to sharing this with you. If you'd like to learn even more about Tantra, why not sign up for my next online Tantra workshop?

6 ways Tantra can help you have epic sex

Cam Fraser

Our culture gives us a lot of screwed up messages around gender, intimacy and sex. I often focus on how these messages and our lack of education impact women and their relationship to their bodies and sex, but these messages affect men too - just in different ways.   I was super excited to explore this from a man’s perspective by interviewing Cam Fraser for this episode of Wholehearted.   Cam Fraser, or THE Cam Fraser as he’s known on Instagram is a Certified Professional Sex Coach, Certified Sexologist, Registered Counsellor, and Registered Tantric Yoga Teacher. His work integrates scientifically validated, medically accurate information about sexual health, with sacred sexuality teachings from the mystery traditions.  As a coach, he helps men go beyond surface-level sex and into full-bodied, self-expressed, pleasure-oriented sexual experiences free of anxiety or shame.  In this episode Cam and I discuss:  What Cam wishes women really understood about men and sex Why men need to engage with our cultural conditioning around masculinity for deeper sexual pleasure and fulfilling relationships How you can get a man to open up more emotionally How to start a conversation with your partner about learning Tantra and improving your sex life or letting him know if you want more foreplay.  I absolutely loved this conversation with Cam and I know you will too.  LISTEN in then pass it on to the MEN you love - they deserve to hear this too!

Wholehearted: Love, Life + Intimacy

I love giving oral sex to my lover. There's something deeply intimate and incredibly arousing about oral sex to me. Giving oral sex is an almost guaranteed way for me to turn myself on... But more important than that, it also opens my heart. It feels like a gift I'm giving my partner. It requires trust and surrender, especially if I'm in the mood to take my lover deep. I need to trust that he'll pay attention to me and not push too far. I need to feel like he's connected to me and appreciating me.  I know that not everyone shares my enthusiasm for it... It's one of those contentious issues that shows up with couples I work with in therapy sometimes.   Believe me, I get it. I understand how it isn't everyone's cup of tea. In today’s podcast I’m talking to Roger from curious creatures about oral sex. We share:  Our likes and dislikes How to talk about oral How you can learn to feel more comfortable giving oral sex (if you want to)     More about Roger:  Roger Butler is the driving force behind Curious Creatures.  Roger was brought up white, middle-class, mostly heterosexual, and male. In addition to that lineage, they now identifies as kinky, tantric, polyamorous, queer, and very, very curious. Their training is in Process Oriented Psychology and the facilitation of groups, coupled with an extensive education in sexuality. Curious Creatures believes that sex is about delicious, hedonistic experience as well as being a path of self development and a contribution to a less violent world. They run workshops in a whole range of related topics in cities across Australia. On their podcast Curious Conversations about Sex, Rog speaks on topics as broad as complex relationship dynamics, body image, gender issues, sex in long-term relationships, kinky sex, abuse and trauma, modern tantra, and sex work.  To find out more or contact Rog, you can visit their website at: https://www.curiouscreatures.biz   If there are any other topics you want me to cover, people you want me to talk to or questions you want answered please connect with me on Insta!

Squirting - The Facts, Myths and How To of Female Ejaculation

For a long time, I didn’t know what I wanted sexually. I had very little idea of what turned me on. I had some ideas… things I’d heard about that I wanted to try but I was far too shy to ask for it! It was only after I began practicing Tantra and I felt like I was given permission to enjoy myself and express myself sexually that I started to feel okay with accepting pleasure and my sexual desires. What I enjoy sexually has changed over time - it continues to change actually! I go through phases of really enjoying something and then kind of moving on a bit. Often it’s really dependent on my mood too! I think one of the reasons I love helping women become sexually empowered so much is because I’m so aware of the whole range of possibilities there are for pleasure!  There’s a really common set of questions and statements I hear from women when we’re discussing feeling sexually empowered, confident and being well-pleasured. They go like this: How do I tell my partner what I like? I’m not even sure I know what I like. How do you find this out?  What do other women like?   I also hear women’s partners say things like: I wish I knew what she *really enjoys sexually. I try to ask her, but she says she doesn’t know. I just really want to know how to please her.   In this episode of Wholehearted Love, Sex + Intimacy, I’m sharing advice and practical tips to help you discover epic pleasure. You’ll hear:  The vital factors of a woman’s turn-on that you need to understand My 4 step formula to discover what you really enjoy Playful ways to explore what you enjoy with a partner - no awkward conversations involved Sexy suggestions from other women on what turns them on   This episode comes with a huge thank you to Bliss for Women…. Bliss for Women take a holistic approach to women’s sexuality, sexual wellness and menstrual health. Bliss for Women stock pleasure-enhancing products and provide a unique shopping experience, erasing the taboo of shopping in an adult store. Bliss for Women believe that women deserve a place where they can explore their own unique relationship to sex, desire and their bodies.

How to get out of a sex rut + have more playful, loving, satisfying sex

Kip Moore

Tantra is a spiritual and sexual practice that completely changed my life.  In 2009, after I had been studying Tantra for several years, I went to a workshop that I thought would be like others I had been to before.  I had heard that one of the teachers had a wonderful reputation, but when he walked through the door, I was disappointed.  He looked so… normal.  He looked the least like a Tantra teacher of anyone I had ever seen.  But within the space of a week, this rather normal-looking man would deepen my knowledge of Tantra, relationships, spirituality and myself beyond anything I had known before.  This week on the Soulful Bedroom Goddess podcast, I’m interviewing my Tantra Teacher, Kip Moore. Kip also shares deep wisdom on intimacy, the dance between the masculine and feminine and the powerful, sacred nature of sex.  Hear are some of the highlights of this intimate and insightful conversation:   How sex can be a transcendent experience deepening connection to each other and all that is How a man can respond when a woman is sexually afraid or anxious The importance of presence in a relationship and during love-making How women can step into their feminine energy for deeper intimacy, desire and passion   Kip also offers one of the best definitions of Tantra I’ve ever heard:  “Tantra is letting all the facades go, being absolutely open and honest and present as a man with your beloved and with her trusting you enough to reveal her innermost Divine energy.”   More About Kip Moore  Kip has taught with some of the most renowned Tantra teachers on the planet including Charles Muir, Margot Ananda and Bodhi Avinasha. He has been my Tantra teacher since 2009.  To book a free 15 minute session with Kip, you can email him: tantricsky[at]aol[.]com   More About Isiah McKimmie Isiah McKimmie is a Relationship Therapist, Sex Therapist and Tantra teacher passionate about helping people discover wholehearted sensuality, soulful intimacy and spirit-led lives.

An interview with my Tantra Teacher Kip Moore on Tantra, Sacred Sex and the Dance between the Divine Masculine and Feminine

What should you do if your man has sexual challenges, can’t ‘get it up’ or isn’t interested in sex? I’m sharing my personal experience with you. Some of you will know that one of the experiences that led me to working in the field of sexuality, intimacy and relationships, was my time working as a Sexual Surrogate. In this role, I worked intimately and practically with men experiencing sexual dysfunction such as low libido, premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction. It was an incredible opportunity to see just how deeply sexuality impacts us as human beings, but also the professional possibilities for helping people. I struggle to put into words how profound, insightful and rewarding that work was for me. Although I mostly work with women and couples now, it's still something close to my heart.  I receive a LOT of questions from women now on how to support their men with sexual challenges including low desire, ED and PE.  55% of men will have experienced a sexual dysfunction within the last 12 months. (Which means a significant portion of women will encounter these issues also.) Our culture places high expectations on men to be sexually proficient and capable at all times. When men experience sexual challenges of any kind, they often report it bringing into question their sense of worth and their masculinity. They often express feeling:  Shame/embarrassment Frustration/anger Disappointment in themselves Hopelessness/despair  Our culture also places an expectation on women to feel desired and sought-after.  When a woman’s partner is experiencing sexual challenges, it can sometimes lead her to question her own desirability (even though this usually has little to do with what’s going on!) Women often experience a range of thoughts and emotions when their partner experiences sexual challenges, such as: Feeling like they don’t know what to do to help  Wanting to ignore the problem so they don’t embarrass their partner Frustration Rejection Helplessness Questioning their own attractiveness  How a partner responds to a sexual dysfunction can make a big difference to what happens going forward.  For some men, the negative reaction of a partner increases their anxiety about it happening again - almost guaranteeing it does. But there are helpful ways a partner can respond and there are steps a man can take to overcome these sexual challenges. In this episode of Wholehearted Love, Sex + Intimacy, you’ll hear:  The 4 most common sexual challenges men experience The client who though he had premature ejaculation, but was actually experiencing something very different How men’s partners can respond in a way that’s supportive and can help a man recover faster The underlying causes of each sexual dysfunction Practical steps you need to take to fix them    Like any sexual challenge, these issues aren’t something you need to deal with alone. If you’re ready to move forward to more satisfying, loving sex, book a call with Isiah.

Hey loves - and welcome the penultimate podcast of Orgasm week! We’ve had a whole week of shows on the female orgasm to celebrate my Epic Orgasms Course which is being released next week.  If you’ve missed any of them make sure you go back and listen in.  Today I’m answering a final question from someone in my community. She says: I have had orgasms before. Most of the time by myself and sometimes with my partner, but the thing is, I don’t always with him. It’s really frustrating. I don’t really know what it is. Do you have any tips for someone like me?  Do I have any tips? Of course I do! It’s this kind of real sex ed that I’m passionate about sharing. If you’ve never had an orgasm, I suggest going back to listen to the show we did a couple of days ago “Can every woman reach orgasm? What should I do if I can’t?” But if you have had orgasms, but just can’t seem to have them frequently or reliably, listen up as I delve into 7 practical suggestions for you. I’m going to be including a whole bonus module on getting what we want in bed in my online course, Epic Orgasms. I’ll be sharing exact scripts and techniques that you can use to ask a partner for exactly what you want and give them feedback on how they’re going, so be sure to check that out next week.

Sarah Marie Liddle

Sarah Marie Liddle has been a Pleasure Coach for over a decade and today I’m speaking with her not only about sexual pleasure but being open to all of life's pleasures. Pleasure can seem quite selfish– but Sarah Marie suggests we re-frame our beliefs around that – and by letting go of our association with “guilty pleasures” we allow ourselves to take pleasure in its entirety. We live in such a fast paced world now but by slowing down, being present and mindful, living with intention and attention your energy changes - you see things, feel things, experience things differently. When we can learn to let go of the ego and can step fully into ourselves, our relationship with the world changes – - we show up differently - life flows - we experience things from a place of love, and - we give the best version of ourselves – in life and in the bedroom. We discuss the steps we can take Let’s have fun and explore … all about pleasure.   Sarah Marie Liddle, Pleasure Coach &amp; Host of the Pleasure Rising Podcast is an Aussie-Kiwi obsessed with pleasure – a former lawyer turned pleasure coach. She shows you how to bring pleasure back into your life, relationships &amp; business. Sarah has written for Thought Catalogue, Huffington Post, Elephant Journal, YFS Magazine and more. Learn more on Sarah Marie's website or follow her on Insta.

All About Pleasure with Sarah Marie Liddle

Today I’m talking about Gas Lighting. It’s something I’ve been seeing too much of in my world at the moment. I’m seeing it in my personal life - amongst my friends, in my clients - and on a much larger scale in world politics at the moment too.  And - I just can’t stay quiet about it anymore! Gas lighting is a form of manipulation and control that can occur in relationships causing the victim to question their own feelings, instincts and sanity. It is emotional and psychological abuse. In gas lighting, the abuser sees the victim as an object, a possession, something to control - although they might not necessary be aware that’s what they’re doing.  And it doesn’t just happen in intimate partner relationships – it can happen in the work place by bosses, it can happen from friends and unfortunately from other family members like parents.  In this episode I’ll be sharing  What gas lighting might look like and the signs to look out for that you’re being gas lit  - What to do if you’re in a relationship with someone who is gas lighting you, and - How to avoid this form of manipulation and control. We’ve been talking about this in my Facebook group, Wholehearted Love, Sex and Intimacy - which is for women only - and I’d love you to come and join the discussion and share your experiences with this. We all want love - we want to believe the person we love and know that we can trust them. We all deserve a healthy, stable, loving and respectful relationship. And you need to know that it IS possible. If this is happening to you and you’re ready to move on to a healthier, more loving relationship, this is something that I support people with, so please visit the coaching page of my website and book a 20 minute call with me so we can find out if we’re a good fit for working together.

Nude Yoga and Body Confidence with Rosie Rees

Today I’m sharing just how and where you can start when you haven’t been intimate in a really long time. One of the most common reasons couples see me as a therapist is because they’re not having sex anymore - or at least not being intimate as often as they’d like. Becoming intimate again can make such a huge difference to our relationship and overall happiness. We tend to think everyone else has a great relationship and sex life. We can think that there’s something wrong with us because we’re the only ones not having sex – or arguing about it. But couples who are struggling in this area are not alone. It’s far more common than we might think.  What’s really important to know is it doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you.  If it’s been a while since you were intimate you might be able to relate to this:  Perhaps you’ve been wishing this will just ‘fix’ itself, or wished that you could just get on with your relationship without sex. Maybe you build yourself up, telling yourself ‘I know I need to do something about this – tonight’s the night.’ But then you forget or feel too nervous or just don’t feel in the mood anymore. The longer you go without it, the more awkward and uncomfortable it can feel. You wish you could just want to ‘want to’ again. But you don’t know how or where to start. And it seems like all the sex advice in the world can’t get you over that first hurdle.  For this episode we’re going to talk specifically about how to take small, practical steps towards regaining intimacy when it’s been a long time, including:  Asking yourself how important it is to you Understanding desire Sharing appreciation with your partner Spending quality time together The small steps back to intimacy using non-sexual physical touch  Starting again when your sex life has been in decline isn’t easy, but it is possible. Often, taking the first step is the hardest. By listening to this podcast, you’ve already begun the journey. And I want you to know you don’t need to do it alone. I'm here to help. You can reach out via my website and book a short 20 minute call to see if we’re a good fit for working together. You can also find more free resources on my website on building connection and reigniting intimacy. And for more on Desire – check out my recent podcast, Desire – everything you need to know.

How and where to start when you haven’t had sex in months – or even years!

Hey loves - and welcome back to Orgasm week! My new online course for women - Epic Orgasms is being released next week, so to celebrate, I’m sharing a whole week of shows on the female orgasm. If you’ve missed the first few episodes so far, make sure you go back and tune in. I’m answering more questions from my community today. Can every woman reach orgasm? What should I do if I can’t? Sex absolutely doesn’t need to end in orgasm for it to be enjoyable, fulfilling and satisfying but if you want to reach orgasm and can’t, it can be incredibly frustrating. Fact is, 30% of women struggle to reach orgasm on a regular basis and 1 in 10 of us have never had an orgasm at all.  And, if you’re one of the 10% of sexually active women who have never had an orgasm, you might be wondering if it’s even possible for you to have an orgasm?  It’s a good question. The good news is that the vast majority of women can learn to orgasm when they have the right information and support. Think of it as a skill you just haven’t been taught yet. In this episode I talk about the many reasons women may have difficulty reaching orgasm and I share with you the 6 steps you can take to learn to have an orgasm for the first time.   My latest e-book EPIC ORGASMS: Everything you need to know about the female orgasm will be available later today!  In it I share more tips, practical exercises and Tantric secrets to help you have epic orgasms. So be sure to head to my website and download your copy. It’s totally free for a limited time only.

Can every woman reach orgasm? What should I do if I can’t?

We each give and receive love in different ways. We often give love in the way we’d like to receive it - which is beautiful - but sometimes, that isn’t the way our partner gives love or feels most loved. So what happens when we’re giving love in a way it isn’t understood? Sometimes, two people can each be trying to give love to each other - but can both end up feeling unloved because they’re speaking two different love languages. You might even feel really frustrated, because you’re trying to do so much to show your partner that you love them, but for some reason, they still feel unloved! Understanding the 5 Love Language, helps you understand and navigate these differences. Understanding the different Love Languages has been so helpful for many couples that I work with. Many of them have found it pivotal in their relationship. Instead of feeling unloved and uncared for, I’ve seen people suddenly realise their partner has been trying to show love for them all along. I’ve seen couples stop arguing about what they’re not doing for each other and finally understand each other’s needs better. In this episode we’re going to cover:  What are the 5 Love Languages? And how do you find yours? How can you show love to someone with each different Love Language? What should you do when you think your partner has a different Love Language to you? And how can you talk to your partner about your Love Language?  If you’re still unsure of your Love Language after listening to the episode, take the quiz here.

Understanding the 5 Love Languages

Do you feel like men and women just communicate differently? Have you ever wanted to understand how the other sex thinks? I know you’re going to love this episode, where I take a deep dive with "the relationship guy”, Gideon Hanekom. When I announced to my Facebook community that I was going to be chatting to a male relationship expert for insights into how men and women communicate, I was flooded with questions. Questions like:  How do I talk to a man about emotions? How do I get him to open up when he’s in shut down? Why is sex so important to a relationship? And - we keep fighting over chores - how can I get my partner to do more housework?  We’re answering all of these questions and more. We’ll cover the key needs men and women have in a relationship + the one emotion men are always trying to avoid. We talk about the differences that happen in men and women’s bodies when we try to communicate + how you can effectively understand each other. We also talk about the role of sex in vulnerability and intimacy.

How to talk to men about emotions, your relationship + sex

I remember the first time I kissed a woman. It’s actually not the kiss that I remember most - it’s how I felt afterwards.  Confused. Worried. Embarrassed. Excited. Because, to borrow from Katie Perry:  I kissed a girl. And I liked it. I liked it a lot, you guys. But I had always - and still do - consider myself heterosexual. So how does that work? We recently received a question from a woman who shared similar feelings about her sexual fantasies involving other women. She’s always considered herself heterosexual and only been in relationships with men, but she’s now wondering what these fantasies about women mean. So in this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, we wanted to address her concerns, which are really common. If you’ve also found yourself sexually attracted to the same sex, maybe watching lesbian porn and wondered ‘what does this mean???’ We’re answering it all; We’ll talk about:  How common it is… Why it happens Why more for women than for men? Is it normal? Does it mean I’m a lesbian? How do I feel okay with these fantasies or attractions? How societal conditioning has influenced how we see these desires?  I open up about my own experiences of being with women - and what it means for my own relationships. Enjoy this episode, knowing you are DEFINITELY NOT ALONE! It’s becoming a bit of a theme on the podcast, but our take home message is that we believe:  Love who you love It’s time to break down the rigid labels and boxes we’ve been given Find what brings you pleasure, joy and love and give yourself permission to explore it wholeheartedly!  We think this quote from Kesha sums it up perfectly: “I love people. It’s not about a gender. It’s just about the spirit that exudes from that other person you’re with.”   Have a topic you’d like us to cover? Let us know in the comments.

Kate Toon

In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, Kate Toon joins me to dive into the art of talking dirty with your partner. When Kate reached out to me and said she gave 'great pod' - and had worked on a sex chat line, I knew I had to have her on the show. Talking about sex and what we want can feel uncomfortable and just downright weird when we’re not used to it. This podcast episode aims to empower you with some tips to get the sexy conversation started with your partner without it feeling forced or unnatural. We all have the ability to ‘talk sexy’, you just need to find what works for you and ultimately your relationship. In this episode, we discuss:  - Kate Toon’s experience working on a phone sex line. - Something I talk a lot about on this show and in my work are the ways women hold themselves back during sex. We are given so many cultural messages that it’s not okay to be a woman who enjoys or feels comfortable with sex. And we’re not taught how to do it. This episode offers advice on how to become more comfortable with sex. - Kate’s a copywriter and therefore master of words with some great tips or talking dirty and words that work/ don’t work to get you in the mood. HOT TIP: it doesn’t need to sound unnatural or over-the-top to be sexy. - Sexting is also something women ask me about a lot! I did a survey as part of some research I was doing last year and I was overwhelmed with women telling me they would love to sext their partner but feel like they don’t know how. Kate and I discuss some great sexting tips. - How ‘good sexual communication helps improve our sexual satisfaction.’ Learn to: Ask for what we want / don’t want in the bedroom Share appreciation or tell your partner what you like. - Getting out of the ‘functional sex’ rut – how can you reignite the flame after having kids / being in a long term relationship? - Kate’s experience at a Fellatio workshop. Learn how to making fellatio work for you and your partner. - Shift your mindset of fellatio ‘as a gift for him or a reward or chore’ to ‘learn how to get pleasure out of doing it for yourself.’ - We’ve grown up in a society where we’re not given the skills or the right attitude towards sex. How can we move past that for ourselves and a healthier relationship?

Good sexual communication helps improve our sexual satisfaction – learn to:  Ask for what we want/ don’t want Share appreciation or tell your partner what you like.   An easy place to start is giving compliments to your partner. Positive feedback i.e. How much you’re enjoying it and how they make you feel, how great they look etc. Even start after sex, because it’s harder in the moment. Remember: to tell your partner what you enjoyed NOT what you didn’t enjoy. Start by sending messages, because it’s less confronting and gives you more time to think. Read for inspiration - discover what you like. How? ‘Do a bit of googling and find some ‘sexy articles/ tips’ i.e ‘5 new sex positions to try’ and send those articles to your partner. There’s a lot of good content out there that you can share. If you don’t have the words yourself- use someone else’s’ –Kate Toon's! Do your research- read a sexy novel- choose the parts that turn you on and put it in a text message to your partner. Or tell them this is something you want to try. Send a voicemail to your partner. It gets unsexy when you get analytical about it.    Some tips to help you in the sexting department from Kate Toon  https://www.katetooncopywriter.com.au/how-to-write-sexy-copy-six-sensual-tips/   1:  Use unexpected and sensual words to describe everyday objects.  'How about the gentle curve of the bath tap, or the soft undulating feel of that doona?'   2:  Appeal to the senses ‘Describe the touch, smell and even taste. Sound can also be useful.’   3:  Don’t overdo it ‘I have a three adjective rule, which means I never use more than three in a row.’   4:  Avoid the Mills &amp; Boon effect ‘choosing the right sexy words can be tough…’ ‘Here’s some help in choosing the right ones:’Phrases we loved    Phrases we hated    ‘Copy that tries too hard to be sexy just causes a snigger rather than an emotional or sensual response. So if in doubt, don’t.’   Check out more about Kate at her website: https://www.katetoon.com   If you are a new listener to Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, we would love to hear from you.  Please visit our Contact Page and let us know how we can help you today!
