    Ivy Insights

    The Good Girls Talk About Sex podcast is an incredibly enlightening and empowering listen. As a listener for over four years, I have found the subject content discussed by Leah Carey and her guests to be invaluable. The podcast not only explores Leah's personal journey, but also shines a spotlight on the experiences of women in today's world. What makes this podcast truly exceptional is its ability to resonate with men as well. Men need to hear these stories and discussions in order to better understand women and the societal challenges they face. The wide variety of topics covered on this podcast is extremely important; it educates listeners about various aspects of sexuality and relationships.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is Leah Carey's ability to create an open, non-judgmental space for her guests to share their stories. Her interview style is thoughtful and allows for a true sense of intimacy between the guest and the listener. Through her insightful questions, Leah gets right to the heart of issues surrounding sexuality, body image, shame, and more. This creates a safe space for guests to speak their truth and encourages listeners to reflect on their own experiences.

    However, there are no significant negative aspects about this podcast that come to mind. If anything, one could argue that it would be great to have more episodes or even longer episodes since the content is so valuable. Additionally, while there is a wide variety of topics covered, some listeners might want even more diversity in terms of perspectives or experiences shared.

    In conclusion, The Good Girls Talk About Sex podcast is truly a beacon of light for both women and men seeking education and empowerment regarding sexuality. Through Leah Carey's platform, people from all walks of life can learn about themselves, their desires, their traumas, and how they can cultivate healthy relationships. This podcast has undoubtedly had a profound impact on its listeners by promoting self-acceptance, dispelling shame surrounding sex, and fostering understanding between genders. Thank you, Leah Carey, for the important work you are doing; people are truly listening and benefiting from your platform.

    Jessica's world was turned upside down when her husband died suddenly and she uncovered evidence of his endless lies and a second life that she'd known nothing about.

In this special (mid-hiatus!) episode, Leah talks with Jessica Waite whose book "The Widow's Guide To Dead Bastards" is available today from Atria.  They focus on a pivotal chapter from the book, exploring the questions that still linger for Jessica: What did she know?

    Last year I found myself in the middle of a shitstorm for daring to expose a community leader's abusive behavior. Today I tell the whole story. The backlash was immediate and intense, with DARVO (Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender) tactics used to paint me as the problem. Suddenly, I was not just standing as a representative of this man's abuse, but also receiving harassment and ostracization from those I once considered my community. Sharing this story isn't just about telling you what's going on; it's about shining a light on the dark corners of abuse and systemic failure. It's a call to action for change, support, and understanding for those who have had their voices silenced.
