Exploring Trauma-Informed Sexuality and Intimacy with Rena Martine and Mistress Justine Cross

Описание: This episode, I welcome back Justine Cross, a BDSM consultant and dominatrix, and Rena Martine, an intimacy coach and former deputy district attorney to the podcast. Justine and Rena share their expertise in creating safe, shame-free spaces for trauma survivors to explore their sexuality. We explore the concepts of trauma-informed sexual practices, importance of consent, and taking gradual steps in intimate encounters post-trauma. We also discuss frequently asked listener questions, such as how to navigate sexual experiences post-trauma, and emphasize gradual exposure, communication, and understanding one's own desires as pathways to healing and enjoyable intimate experiences.
