Permission to Experience Pleasure with Ob/Gyn Dr. Sadaf Lodhi
<p>Like so many others, I used to cringe when my parents or others would talk about sex. And it wasn't really until I was in my professional life helping others find solutions to difficulties or dissatisfaction in their own sex lives that I developed the language and confidence to discuss it openly. Today's guest Ob/Gyn Dr. Sadaf Lodhi and I share common goals of empowering our patients to explore their bodies, become confident expressing their needs and feel comfortable having conversations about their intimate lives. In the episode we tackled the taboo and answered the following questions:<br/><br/>***************</p><p>- Why is sex such a taboo topic?<br/>- How does one identify the need to seek out sex therapy?<br/>- How can couples adjust to changes in a relationship over time - like changes in stress levels, body image, hormones, physical changes or difficulties due to medical conditions?<br/>- How does emotional intimacy affect a couple's physical connection?<br/>- How can someone with a traumatic past heal and move toward a healthy intimate life?<br/>- How are sex therapy and sex coaching different?<br/>- How can someone become comfortable discussing intimacy when they were raised in a household where it wasn't talked about?<br/>- How can we talk to our children about sex positivity and ensure that they have a healthy approach to their future intimate lives?<br/>- How does your upbringing affect your attitudes and beliefs around sex and intimacy?<br/>- What happens when you realize that you are dissatisfied with your sex / intimate life?<br/>- How do you figure out what you like sexually?<br/>- How do you develop the confidence to express what you want?<br/><br/></p><p>***************<br/><br/>Dr. Lodhi is a Board Certified Ob/Gyn and Certified Life Coach from Rutgers University. She is currently undergoing AASECT training at the University of Michigan. She offers courses and one-on-one coaching services. </p><p><br/>***************<br/><br/>You can find more from Dr. Lodhi at:<br/><br/>Website: www.drsadaf.com<br/><br/>IG/TIKTOK: @drsadafobgyn<br/>Youtube/Podcast: Muslim Sex Podcast<br/><br/></p><p>***************<br/><br/>Thanks so much for listening!<br/><br/>There's lots more on my website:<br/><a href='http://www.drlexlifestylemedicine.com/'>www.drlexlifestylemedicine.com</a><br/><br/>and....<br/><br/>If you love the music, check out:<br/><a href='http://www.therealmichaelvm.com/music'>www.therealmichaelvm.com/music</a><br/><br/>All my love & gratitude to:<br/>my guest: Dr. Sadaf Lodhi,<br/>my inspiration: my patients,<br/>my idea guy: Edward,<br/>my intro crew: Izzy, Lance & Lucia,<br/>my tech & equipment guy: Pop,<br/>my angel: Susie,<br/>my music & sound guy: Mike VM,<br/>my mascots: Jules & P.S., <br/>my creative director: Emily,<br/>my love, Michael.<br/><br/>***************<br/><br/>#sexpositive #sexpositiveeducation #sexpositiveart #sexpositiveculture #sexpositiveevents #sexpositiveworld #sexuality #sexualityeducation #sexualityacceptance #sexualitycoach #sextherapy #sexcoach #intimacy #intimacycoach</p>
