Hello Sex Drive passengers!
Welcome to episode 3 of the Sex Drive Podcast. Sex Educator, Melanie Rocco, is our driver today.
This episode’s topic is ‘Love” (in its many forms). We recorded this episode an hour after the announcement that Roe v Wade had been overturned. This conversation is full of real-time, raw processing, support, and, you guessed it, love.
What you’ll find in this episode:
- Temperature check amongst the educators.
- The importance of mobilizing and regulating emotions through our nervous systems.
- Processing what overturning Roe v Wade means, how it feels and what we can do as humans and as educators to move forward and support one another.
- How do we care for ourselves in these moments and in this time?
- What does a community of love look like, to you?
Resources mentioned:
- 5 Love Languages, Gary Chapman
