Shame: everyone knows what it is because shame is a universal emotion. So how do you become shame-free?
Although not Latina herself, guest Rena Martine shares her expertise in addressing shame, which is deeply rooted in Latine culture. Rena is a former DA who now works as an evidence-based intimacy coach, helping women love their bodies, experience deep intimacy, and have great sex, shame-free.
Rena also emphasizes the importance of understanding our family's input based on what we know now, without resorting to blaming or hating our parents because of the difference in our cultural lenses. Because shame is instilled from an early age, not just from the messages perpetuated within family, but also through religion, personal experiences, and all the media we consume.
*TRIGGER WARNING*
The interview delves into sensitive topics such as PCOS, pregnancy termination, and our individual sterilization choices. We talked candidly about these topics, and encourage you to approach this with an open mind.
***Support the show for as little as $3/month***
We'll also discuss Rena's upcoming book The Sex You Want: A Shameless Journey to Deep Intimacy, Honest Pleasure, and a Life You Love slated for delivery to a bookshop near you in 2024.
Key takeaways for this episode include:
- why shame exists and how it might show up in your relationships
- the vocabulary around shame, such as "shoulds"
- what becoming "shame-free" can mean for you specifically
- why rest is an important aspect of all of this
