TRUTH BOMBS

Every relationship needs effort. YES, this includes effort experimenting in the bedroom! It's important to allow the change.

You can be a sexual person and still not be comfortable in your sexuality, especially if your sexuality is under the influence of adrenaline (from something like a trauma bond).

The only way to effectively communicate your needs and values to make sure they're met in your relationships is if you are living in your truth and aligned with your needs and values.

Humans are sexual beings and want to feel desired.

If you want a partner to open up to you, you need to offer them a safe, non - judgemental environment for them to open up and express themselves.

CHICKEN NUGGETS

Men experience trauma just like women do! Their trauma is typically through intimacy, validation, insecurity, masculinity and pressures from society.

We mold ourselves and change our truths based on “should’s”.

So many of us aren't honest with our true selves and desires.

Most of us get bored of the same sex routine over and over.
