Description

In this follow-up to Healing Out Loud: Sex, Survival, and the Path Back to Your Body, we continue unzipping what healing after sexual trauma really looks like—messy, non-linear, and deeply personal. Together, we unpack the emotional, cultural, and physical layers of recovery—from the weight of societal expectations to the quiet, powerful moments of reclaiming pleasure.

We explore the many ways trauma can surface, how it’s often misunderstood, and why healing isn’t about “getting over it”—it’s about coming home to yourself. We reflect on what it means to feel safe in your body again, how pleasure can become a powerful act of reclamation, and why these conversations are essential.

If you haven’t listened to Annette’s podcast yet, we encourage you to check out Talk Sex with Annette.
