Sexuality is a part of who we are and we all deserve to learn about it in a way that is safe, comfortable, and judgement-free. Learning about positive sexuality is transformative for individuals and society overall.

I'd like to introduce you to TMI Project, a nonprofit near and dear to my heart, that uses writing and true storytelling for social justice movement building, to ignite human connection and as a healing modality for personal transformation.

Juliane Taylor Shore, LPC, LMFT, SEP (AKA Jules) joins me to discuss the impact of being quarantined at home, experiencing isolation, fear and grief — how these experiences work in tandem with our implicit memory systems —what the effect it all has on our relationships is and what we can do to build resilience.
Dr. Shideh Lennon, a clinical psychologist and Somatic Experiencing practitioner, joins us to discuss how to embody resilience during the current COVID-19 pandemic.

We’re still going to feel it all, but these tools may help increase our capacity by being our biggest best selves, so that we may bear and be with all that's arising.
