It's Sex Positive September, and in celebration, we're diving back into our catalog to when Dr. Lexx Brown-James joined us to discuss Black women's sexuality agency and pleasure. When this episode was initially released, Cardi B & Meg the Stallion had just dropped WAP and the single set the internet on fire. In a new timely release, Meg and Cardi are back with another hit, "Bongos,” a sex-positive anthem perfect for celebrating Sex Positive September. In this episode, Dr. Lexx and I tackled the stereotypes often associated with Black women's sexuality, shame, respectability politics, and agency's role in sexual liberation. We also explored ways to confront our sexual shame and foster healthier attitudes toward sexuality for the next generation.  Resources & Announcements Visit our Amazon Store for all the books mentioned on the podcast.

In this final solo show of the month's series on Marriage, Intimacy, and Mental Health, I reflect on the recent episode with Dr. Christie Kederian, discussing matchmaking and relationship advice. I discuss the importance of individual inner work in improving relationships and my personal experiences of questioning, resentment, and eventual empowerment through therapy. I explore the concept of chemistry and the impact of therapy in bringing subconscious dynamics to the surface and how it ultimately influences my relationships. “In my experience in therapy, whenever my marriage was a topic of discussion, I went from ‘Is it enough for my marriage that I am the only one in therapy?' to ‘Why am I the one in therapy? Why am I doing all of the work?' to ‘Holy cow, this is incredible, I get to do all this work on myself and it helps my marriage and this is SO cool.' From questioning to resentment to empowerment.” - Christie Rocha Links: Christie's Website Christie's Instagram: @sasssays Get the Recording of the Marriage, Intimacy, and Mental Health Panel Discussion Dr. Christie's Website Dr. Christie's Instagram: @thedatedoctorchristie Marriage, Intimacy, and Mental Health Series: Ep 149 Dr. Morgan Anderson, Attachment Theory Expert Ep 150 Christie Rocha, My Attachment Styles Ep 151 Dr. Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, Relational & Sexual Communications Professor Ep 152 Christie Rocha, Reclaiming Personal Pleasure Ep 153 Dr. Lexx Brown-James, Sex Therapist Ep 154 Christie Rocha, Truth vs Honesty Ep 155 Dr. Christie Kederian, Matchmaker, LMFT, and Relationship Coach

Oh mixing it up. Yeah, but it's not me playing a role. It's an actual other person doctor Lex the therapist and we're going to be answering some of your questions and I have to say we do receive so many questions and we fall behind and I always feel badly that we don't get to all of them Faithfully. We're going to power through a few today and I want to open with a question for Brandon. It's a nice short and sweet one that I received on Instagram before we dive off.

Erica Butler, founder, and Sex Educator for Happ E. SexTalk, an education consulting company focused on challenging the media and cultural messages pertaining to female sexuality, body image, and sexual pleasure – specifically the historically negative and hypersexualized images of Black female sexuality. Erica shared her birth story with us, discussed her work and its importance in reproductive health and justice.Erica opened up about both of her pregnancies. The first pregnancy was without complications and only mild nausea but eventually led to an emergency surgical birth. Her personal connection to a local doula organization, ROOTT, allowed her and her husband to envision birth with a new lens during her second pregnancy. She found herself healthily losing weight as she shifted her diet with her doula's support and recommendations. She managed a gestational diabetes diagnosis with her diet as well. Identifying stressors during pregnancy helped Erica to understand how her body worked. Despite her best plans and she was met with placenta previa that would lead to a scheduled surgical birth. The delivery went well, but the postpartum experience was met with low blood sugar levels, lactation issues, medical provider issues, and anxiety. Erica and her husband, David, leaned into their own strength and village for support to help them.Resources:Sex Positive Families | education and resources that help families raise sexually healthy children using a shame-free, comprehensive, and pleasure-positive approachAMAZE | provides young adolescents around the globe with medically accurate, age-appropriate, affirming, and honest sex education onlineGuttmacher | leading research and policy organization committed to advancing sexual and reproductive health and rights in the United States and globallyBedsider | free birth control support network for women ages 18–29Dr. Lexx Brown-James l couples clinician and sex educatorSponsors:Restoring Our Own Through Transformation (ROOTT) | reproductive justice organizationROOTT is a collective of concerned Black families, community members, advocates & interdisciplinary professionals dedicated to decreasing Black maternal & infant mortality in Ohio.
