About this episode

“ Pleasure is not a luxury, it’s your birthright”

 

This week, the Good Moms are joined by intimacy expert, author, and as we’ve decided to call her “Sex Santa” Susan Bratton for a funny and informative look into  pleasure, partnership, and personal transformation through the exploration of your body.

 

From 12 years of sexless marriage to becoming a global educator on over 20 types of orgasms, Susan shares how she turned her own bedroom into a second career filled with vibrators, science, and soul-level healing. The three caht about everything from vulva-friendly sex toys to throatgasms, ethical non-monogamy, and the quiet power of a well-prepped yoni massage. 

You can expect to hear:

(12:10) Susan’s previously dull sex life, awakening through pleasure, and how orgasmic healing saved her marriage

(20:00) What it means to be an “orgasmonaut” and why most women are settling for way too little in and out of the bedroom

(28:45) Susan breaks down over 20 orgasm types, including throatgasms, analgasms, nipplegasms, and more

(35:10) The science behind expanded orgasm and why it’s not just about sex it’s about source

(44:20) Yoni massage, the Queen vibrator, and why most sex toys are designed without Black women in mind

(51:50) Thrust-in-time: a Taoist technique to make intercourse more orgasmic and deeply connective

(1:03:30) Why Susan loves sex toys that vibe with your partner, not just beside them

(1:07:00) Grandmas use vibrators too

(1:10:45) Cannabis and your libido

(1:19:20) Ethical non-monogamy, kitchen table polyamory, and how she manages a husband and a boyfriend with her daughter’s full knowledge

(1:27:15) STI testing without the awkward clinic trip and how new tech makes screening easier than ever

(1:32:40) Affirmation of the Week: “More toys, more orgasms, more joy. Pleasure is my birthright.”

Whether you're solo, partnered, or just vibing with curiosity, this episode offers a powerful reminder: pleasure is not a luxury, it's information, it’s medicine, and it’s yours to claim.
