Sex After Trauma feat. Cassandra Corrado
Today on the show we’re doing things a little different. I share my interview with sex educator, Cassandra Corrado and we talk about the assumptions that people make about you when you’re a sex educator--like “you’re always down for sex” or have experienced every type of sex we teach about. We also answer the many questions I’ve received from listeners about sex after trauma and sexual assault. It’s a difficult topic and one that is important for us to discuss.
