Dr. Emily Morse on Prioritizing Pleasure...

Dear Media
About this episode

Imagine if sex was something you actually looked forward to? Dr. Emily Morse and Dr. Sara explore this very question on this episode of Treated. Dr. Emily Morse is a pioneer in the field of sex and sexuality, starting her podcast, Sex with Emily, over twenty years ago. She’s helped millions of people navigate their sex lives – challenging cultural taboos and misinformation in the hopes to create a future where everyone can live pleasure-filled lives. 


Today, Dr. Emily and Dr. Sara discuss the importance of sexual wellness, intelligence, and health. They dive into the impact that stress, trauma, and shame has on the body – and how women are not given all the information about how birth control affects them. They break down why we have the orgasm gap and the tendency for women to prioritize their partner’s pleasure. After, Dr. Emily dives into how her childhood affected her romantic relationships and how she sought out pleasure. She explains how EMDR therapy helped her heal and how she navigates sex with partners today.
