Through my journey of photographing vulvas I came to realise there is a huge gap in the understanding and acceptance of the female body. While learning all my self I would love others to learn with me, I want to help women and men all around the world become comfortable in their skin.
Lauren Blundell is a Relationship and intimacy coach. During "Masturbation May" loads of people wrote into Comfortable in my Skin's Instagram page asking questions such as "what is an orgasm" - so I wanted to get Lauren on the Pod Cast and ask her the questions YOU GUYS sent in. We start the Pod Cast by leading you through a breast Massage. Fell free to grab some oil and join with this process!
By the age of 14 Lauren was self harming. By the age of 15 Lauren was suicidal. By the age of 16 Lauren was a prostitute. By the age of 18 Lauren found out she had Genital Herpes In a world where we are fed to believe what is beautiful and acceptable, Laurens experience certainly didn't fit. In this pod cast Lauren teaches us how to use our pain as our power. We give shame a voice and it empowers us and ripples into the world. To any person who listens to this - there is no shame in being you!
I am currently in the process of photographing 500 womens vulvas to educate the world on vulva diversity. In this pod cast I share my personal story and the reasons behind starting this project Comfortable in my Skin.
