In this episode, Beth speaks to Calandra Balfour about sex. As an entrepreneur, Calandra’s achievements are vast. A successful Therepeutic Coach, Wellness Expert and Sex Educator, the Owner of the Adult Retailer, Lust and having appeared on Channel 4’s ‘A Very British Sex Shop’, Beth asks Calandra about why she thinks sex is still taboo, what makes for a healthy sex life (the answers might suprpsie you!) and how to bring more fun into your life.
This one is not for the faint-hearted. We cover everything from masturbation and vaginal dryness to communication, smashing the patricarchy and her best selling sex toys, as well as exploring topics such as:
- Shame around sex and self care “You wouldn’t talk to a friend like that so why do you talk like that to yourself”
- Acceptance around talking about sex “it really is a journey”
- Communicating with your partner “fear of rejection”
- Important areas to discuss and what makes for a good sex life “respect and lube”
- Calandra’s best selling sex toys at Lust
Plus there’s your It Takes Tits power roundup at the end to help you get your own show on the road…
Well, this is a podcast championing courage and breaking taboo...Enjoy.
