Is sex painful for you — and you’re tired of being told “it’s just stress,” “you need to relax,” or “it’s normal after kids”? You're not alone — and more importantly, you’re not broken. In this powerful kickoff to our February podcast series on intimacy, pain, and pleasure, Dr. Des dives deep into the real reasons women experience pain with sex and why it’s often misunderstood, dismissed, or misdiagnosed. We explore the physical, emotional, and nervous system roots of pain — from pelvic floor tension to past trauma — and what your body is actually trying to tell you when intimacy doesn't feel good. Whether you’re postpartum, navigating stress, dealing with prolapse, or just feeling disconnected from your body, this episode will help you feel seen and give you the first steps toward reclaiming safe, confident pleasure again. 💡 What You’ll Learn: Common symptoms and sensations of painful sex (and why you’re not imagining it) The pelvic floor’s surprising connection to stress and trauma Physical causes like overactivity, scar tissue, and dryness How mental load and nervous system dysregulation contribute to shutdown and pain Why “just doing kegels” or pushing through is NOT the answer A sneak peek at Dr. Des’ Pain to Pleasure Framework and what to expect in future episodes Access for FREE inside the App (or web browser here): https://pelvic-floor-core-more.passion.io/    🌀 Ready to feel stronger, more confident, and in tune with your body?
