Wise Body Sex Therapy Podcast

In dialogue with Maci Daye, we explore a different way of approaching intimacy—one rooted in embodiment, attention, and gentle curiosity. This episode introduces her perspective on moving out of pressure and into awareness, helping individuals and couples reconnect with their bodies, clarify desire, and cultivate intimacy that feels chosen, rather than performed.

Most women don’t orgasm consistently — and it’s not because their bodies are broken. It’s because our culture favours sexual scripts and expectations for sex that are built around the male body, and because we live in a world where sexual education somehow leaves out talking about the clitoris?!In this episode, I speak with Lori Mintz, author of Becoming Cliterate, about the orgasm gap and how women can reclaim sexual confidence, desire, and pleasure.We explore the social and psychological barriers to orgasm, and why understanding your body — and what you need to reach orgasm — is central to sexual empowerment.

What happens when a psychologist breaks her own silence about sex, marriage, and desire? In this episode, Angela Cara speaks with Alisa Krieger, psychologist, author, and memoirist, about her bold decision to merge the personal and the professional in her book where she explores her erotic reawakening. This conversation traces the arc from numbness to embodiment, asking what it means to tell the truth through the body—and what risks and revelations arise when a therapist steps out from behind the clinical veil.This conversation delves into:The ethics and risks of self-disclosure in therapy and writing.How therapeutic neutrality evolves when the healer becomes the storyteller.The body’s subtle ways of “speaking” again after sexual shutdown.Pleasure as medicine, and the cultural shame that so often silences it.The intersection of shame, desire, and identity for women in long-term relationships.Redefining sexuality beyond heteronormative and performative models.How to discern between dormant desire and asexual identity.And what the metaphor of the Sex Goddess reveals about truth, embodiment, and feminine power.With radical honesty and psychological depth, Alisa invites us to reconsider what it means to be both healer and human—to listen to the wisdom of the body, to embrace desire as truth-telling, and to reclaim the full spectrum of erotic aliveness that belongs to us all.

Whether you’re a therapist, a curious listener, or someone navigating intimacy challenges, this conversation invites you into a deeper relationship with your wise body.
