34: Top Tips To Feeling Better with Prolapse And Intimacy ~ Vanessa Tarfon

DESCRIPTION

This is what I love most about podcasting because we can have our little earbuds in our ears and no one has a clue what we are actually listening to. Today we are chatting with Vanessa Tarfon, a qualified sex and intimacy therapist. 

If you are living with pelvic organ prolapse and/or incontinence and find it difficult to have a conversation about sex with a partner, Vanessa is going to teach you how to connect with yourself first (because that's so important). Then to be able to connect with your partner in ways you've probably never heard of before her practical tips are simple to implement.

And the best thing is that you can just do it at your own pace.

This episode is for you if you want to know more about:

• intimacy with prolapse and incontinence
• learning that self-pleasure is okay  
• how to have conversations with your partner about sex (prolapse or not) 
• 'squirt blankets' for incontinence 
• navigating pornography 
• how we as parents can start conversations about intimacy with our kids, at the appropriate age.
