Should You Feel Your Partner Inside You?

Devi Ward Erickson & Alaina Salks
About this episode
In this episode, Alaina and Devi draw on their combined 27 years of expertise to answer a very common question: "Is it normal not to feel him inside you?”


While it's true that many, many women and V-owners experience a lack of genital sensation, this doesn’t mean it's normal. Common? Yes. Normal? Not at all! 

Unfortunately, in the quest to boost body positivity, creators can sometimes unintentionally overlook sharing valuable insights that can help us all maximize our pleasure.

This episode explores:
  • The science around genital innervation
  • Why genital numbness occurs
  • How to use pleasure as medicine to dissolve the numbness and pain that result from unprocessed trauma and emotional wounding. 
  • Tips for cultivating a sacred sensual healing session for yourself!
