Everything We Got Wrong About Sex Education | Jess Douglas-Monks

Описание: What happens when we stop following the “normal” script for relationships, sex, mental health, and motherhood?

In this powerful episode of The Tell Me About It Podcast, I’m joined by Jess Douglas-Monks (JDM Sexology) - a sexologist and mental health advocate based in rural Victoria, Australia.

This conversation dives deep into ethical non-monogamy (ENM), queer identity, consent education, sex positivity, and the realities of navigating bipolar disorder… while raising children and building a life that actually fits.

Jess shares her lived experience moving from florist to psychologist-in-training to sexologist.

We also explore breaking taboos around sex education in rural Australia, and why honest conversations about bodily autonomy, consent, and pleasure-based sex education are essential for protecting children and empowering adults.

Tune in to hear about:

✅Ethical non-monogamy and navigating a throuple

✅Monogamy vs non-monogamy and why “normal” isn’t working for everyone

✅Queer motherhood and raising kids with consent and bodily autonomy

✅Sex education, pleasure, and why abstinence-based teaching fails

✅Bipolar type 2, postnatal depression, and mental health stigma

✅Family violence awareness and why these conversations are still hidden

✅Parenting, privacy, and consent in the digital age

✅Why doing what’s right for you matters more than public opinion

If you care about consent culture, sex positivity, queer identity, women’s mental health, and honest conversations, this one is for you.
