The Mourning Meeting: Season 2, Episode 3
Let's Talk Taboo...Death and Sex
This week, I speak with Leah Carey, a Sex and Intimacy Coach and host of the podcast Good Girls Talk about Sex. We talk about some of the issues college students are currently having regarding staying connected others, both emotionally and physically. We explore ways to get physical touch needs met in the middle of a pandemic as well as COVID-safe (or COVID-safer) sex practices. We also talk about grief and libido and we explore the changes to libido after a death experience.
