In this open, honest, and deeply validating episode, we’re joined by the incredible Jo Robertson (@jorobertson.therapy) for a no-holds-barred conversation about sex, shame, and everything we were never taught about our bodies.
Jo opens up about the most common struggles she sees in her therapy room - from painful sex and post-UTI fear, to differing libidos, low desire, and the emotional weight that comes with trying to conceive. She shares how disconnection from our bodies, unrealistic expectations, and a lack of education are quietly shaping the way so many of us experience intimacy.
We unpack what it means to rewrite your sexual story, how to communicate your needs without guilt, and why the idea of being “broken” is not only false - but deeply harmful. Jo also reflects on how infertility can shift your relationship with your partner, your body, and your sense of self - and why compassion is key through it all.
From quiet shame to conscious healing, this conversation is a powerful reminder that your experience is valid, your pleasure matters, and you are so not alone in how you feel.
This is a tender, affirming, and myth-busting episode that opens the door to more empowered, informed, and authentic intimacy - whatever that looks like for you.
Whether sex feels painful, pressured, or just confusing—this one’s for you.
