DeepSummary
The episode starts with Emily Morse discussing her journey of exploring her own sexuality and learning to prioritize her pleasure in sex. She talks about how she used to have performative sex focused on her partner's pleasure until her 30s when she started becoming a student of sex and her own body. In her 20s, she would date partners for a couple of years but then break up because the sex life would die down, not realizing it was a natural cycle of relationships.
Emily shares how her 30s were about exploring her sexuality, learning to communicate her desires, and choosing non-monogamous relationships. Her 40s brought more confidence and the ability to have great sex even with casual partners by staying present and collaborating. Now in her 50s, sex is more about intimacy and connection beyond just orgasms, with open communication and no pressure.
Throughout the episode, Emily emphasizes the importance of prioritizing sex as part of overall wellness, moving past shame and trauma, and being a student of sex. She discusses her routines, philosophies on sex and relationships, and even reveals some of her favorite toys and techniques for orgasms.
