If you’ve ever found yourself distracted, disconnected, or just going through the motions during sex, this episode is for you. Today, I talk through the very first sexual intelligence framework pillar: Embodiment. Being truly present in your body during sex isn’t something you’re either born with or not, it’s a skill you can actually learn and practice. I walk you through exactly what embodiment means, why so many of us lose it (and why that’s not your fault), and the simple techniques I use myself that can completely transform how you experience pleasure, intimacy, and connection. Whether you’re single or partnered, this is the foundation everything else is built on, and I promise once you start practicing it, you’ll feel the difference in and out of the bedroom.
