Episode description

In today's episode, I have the amazing Tamara Shantikumar on the podcast to talk about all things body shame, approving of your sensual energy, especially as a woman of color, how her culture shaped her beliefs, and how to work through the shame to find self-approval, liberation and healing.

We talked about:
Shame in having sex and sexual desires
Not having representation growing up as a woman of color
Parent/culture beliefs (not being allowed to use tampons)
Body comparison and using dance as a healing modality
Expressing yourself and being seen in your truth

Such an amazing episode bringing so much awareness to us all.

I hope you enjoy the episode and leave feeling seen, educated, and empowered to heal your own relationship with your body and sexuality.

I would love for you to review and rate the podcast and share this episode with a friend.
