Podcast Episode: Wow, We're Really Doing This

Honestly this audience has the best ideas. Recently, in our Facebook group, you all shared (and loved) a piece of writing about sex, or the absence thereof, and the messages we take in around it. I immediately reached out to its author to be a guest because your responses to her work were so strong. Laura Bogart is the brilliant writer behind the recent Buzzfeed piece entitled: Quitting Sex Was The Best Thing I Ever Did For Myself. In it, she discusses her experiences with dating and sex as a fat woman, and this week she joins the podcast to discuss these experiences and to answer questions inspired by this piece that came in from the podcast audience. Anyone who has ever experienced the unique exhaustion that comes along with constantly worrying about how "f*ckable" you are will appreciate this discussion.
