Joy's exposure to p*rn in fifth grade and a traumatic college experience created a burden and contributed to trapping her in a cycle of shame. But through God's grace, Joy discovered a path to freedom and healing. Today, Joy opens up about overcoming shame and destructive habits, addressing the lack of conversation around women's struggles with pornography within church communities. Her insights, drawn from surveying over 1,000 Christian women, reveal how understanding God's design for sexuality and fostering intimacy with Him and a supportive community can lead to profound transformation.

Hello and welcome to another episode of May is for Mamas. I am so excited about the guest that I have today on the podcast because I kept thinking “If I could choose someone who would deliver a lot of value to my listeners who are mamas this month of May, who would it be?” And I kept thinking about Megan Michelson.

The two of them teach about sex and how to talk to your kids about sex in a healthy way. Let me just say—it is such a fabulous resource. Will and I have watched the course, we have taken so many notes, and I have even watched it a second time.

Do you remember when your parents talked to you about your changing body? What did that feel like for you? Was a big conversation where it happened all at once, or did it happen in small pieces scattered over your childhood? Did you feel scared and overwhelmed, or did you feel curious and . . . okay? It's a big topic to tackle, both for parents *and* kids. That's exactly why Emily invited two of our favorite guests back onto the show this week: Megan and Mary Flo of Birds & Bees! All the way back in episode two, Mary Flo and Megan shared how to talk to kids about sex with calm and confidence, and it's one of our most downloaded episodes ever. Today, they chat with Emily about how to talk to kids at any age about bodies and how they'll change someday, and how bodies differ by age and gender. They share how to coach kids to communicate boundaries when it comes to their bodies, the best ways that parents can react to kids' surprising questions, and how to start talking to kids about topics that maybe you should've tackled a while ago (and don't worry, parents: this is a no-shame zone!).
