Welcome to our FIRST EVER video episode! As much as I like to refer to myself as "tech-savvy", I can fully admit that's not true, so it was quite a ride getting to the point of releasing video episodes, lol. But here we are — and what a perfect guest to launch with! Tricia, aka "Safe Slut" on IG, TikTok, YouTube, and Patreon is an incredible writer, content creator, and all-around sex-positive feminist icon. In this episode, we chat all things dating with herpes, living with herpes, and tips for disclosing herpes. Whether you're living with HSV yourself or dating someone who recently got diagnosed, I hope this episode is helpful and informative for anyone wanting to learn more about the condition that nearly 80% of the world has!!!

I'm so honored to sit down with licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Jaci Witmer today to discuss all things postpartum sex and intimacy! As many of us know, the postpartum journey is a wild new chapter for most, and figuring out how to maintain intimacy after birth, deal with potential pressure from your partner, getting comfortable with your new postpartum body, etc are all big leaps to take—and you don't have to take them alone. I hope you all learn as much from Dr. Jaci's incredible advice as I did!

Today we're chatting with sex and relationships expert Dr. Tara (who is insanely fun, BTW) all about situationships, settling, and — you guessed it — sex. We spill all the tea about our previous situationship stories, how we've learned to have healthy casual dating and sex connections, and even a bit about my journey from purity culture princess to someone who talks and writes about orgasms for a living!

Lex Be Real: dating as a plus size person can be TOUGH. We have to make sure we don't seem like a "catfish" on the apps, but are told to love and accept ourselves fully in the same breath. In this solo episode, I talk through my experiences with sex and dating as a fat woman and offer my tips and advice for doing so with confidence and pleasure in mind.

WTF is emotional intimacy and why does it matter, anyway???
