236: Is BDSM a Trauma Response? | Sexuality, Validation, Disassociation & Seasons of Sex

Today we are talking about Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, Sadochism and Masochism (BDSM). I am all for BDSM, kink and all of the things, whatever your sexual fantasies are, I am here for it. Something to be mindful of is that your sexual fantasies in the bedroom should also be coming out in your life. I riff on why this is in today's episode and also dive into:

🌹 What are your sexual fantasies telling you?

🌹 How trauma can impact you in the bedroom

🌹 The difference between a trauma response and a trigger

🌹 Healing yourself and your partner through sex and intimacy

🌹 Being sexual to seek validation and wearing BDSM as badge of honour

🌹 Some questions to ask yourself
