In honor of Mental Health Month & Masturbation Month, May is dedicated to all things related to sexual health. In my previous post, I shared some thoughts on how porn has ruined intimacy. Sex and intimacy are often confused; intimacy isn’t the same as sex. Though they should go hand-in-hand, in today’s society and cultureContinue reading “Intimacy Issues”

Porn has ruined intimacy
In honor of Mental Health Month & Masturbation Month, May is dedicated to all things related to sexual health. The title is a bold statement to make, I know. What is life if I can’t ruffle some feathers every so often? Let me unravel what I mean by this.. We live in a hookContinue reading “Porn has ruined intimacy”
Slut Shaming, pt. 2
I was prompted to make another post on slut shaming as I gained another perspective or layer for this. Read my own experience here. Women shut down men because they internalize slut shaming. They fear of how they are being seen if they sleep with a lot of men. If a woman is continues toContinue reading “Slut Shaming, pt. 2”
Authentic Communication
So often the word authenticity comes up. But what does it really mean? To me, it means being congruent to yourself. Knowing who you are, what you desire, and taking aligned action toward the desires. It’s even more than that. It’s setting the boundaries for yourself and abiding to them. How does this translateContinue reading “Authentic Communication”
The time I got slut-shamed
There’s stigma around slut shaming other women, when there’s no need for this. When women start fighting over the same man, my heart hurts. We should not be in competition of one another, rather we should empower each other. There are plenty of men out there who will want you. There are plenty ofContinue reading “The time I got slut-shamed”
Enoughness
Repeat after me: I am enough. I don’t think any man prefers a woman who doesn’t feel worthy. Much the same way no woman enjoys a man who doesn’t think highly of himself. In order to truly attract a divine masculine man into your life, you need to know you’re worthy. Worthy does not meanContinue reading “Enoughness”

Why would I need to have the title to define the relationship? This reminded me of how farContinue reading “You want more commitment”

Be mindful of how you talk about him to your girl friends and other people. If youContinue reading “Stop chasing after him”
Withdrawings
I’ve even forgotten how to be vulnerable around/with men, yet I share everything with my girl friends. That’s a depth that scares me. That’s my shadow, unwilling to be seen because if it was.. would it be judged, would the other person run away? I’m only learning to be authentically me. To stay congruent to myself, and express my emotions without any accusations or blame. Merely sharing my thoughts, feelings, and emotions. It feels liberating.
Consent + Boundaries
The last couple of months there has been an influx of cheating scandals among various celebrities. There was the Cardi-Offset, the KarJenner-Thompson-Woods, and latest one (though only a rumor at this stage), ARod-JLo situations. What causes people to cheat? We live in such a fast paced society, whereby we need to get our quick fixContinue reading “Consent + Boundaries”
