Shownotes

In this Touchy Subjects Podcast episode, Sex, Love, and Relationship Coach Amanda Testa shares her deconstruction journey from a conservative Southern Baptist upbringing to becoming a sex coach. The conversation explores the impact of purity culture on self-worth, relationships, and societal expectations, emphasizing the importance of embracing a positive and informed approach to sexuality.

Key Takeaways:

  • Purity culture sucks: It messes with self-worth, objectifies people, and puts unfair pressure on women.
  • Let's talk about sex, baby: The podcast encourages relearning how we view and discuss sexuality, focusing on understanding our bodies and prioritizing our own needs and desires.
  • Sexy growth: Embracing a positive attitude towards sexuality can lead to personal growth and stronger connections, so let's ditch the old, outdated narratives.
