S4 | E28 A Listener’s Question About Porn, Pleasure, and Balance

Description

In this week’s episode of Here Comes Sunshine, I’m answering an honest and important listener question:

“What if I don’t want to quit porn, but I want to make sure I’m healthy?”

This conversation is all about awareness, not shame. As someone who once worked as a spicy content creator before becoming a Clinical Sexologist, I understand both sides of this conversation deeply. We’ll talk about what healthy porn use actually looks like, what the science says about dopamine and the brain, and how to stay connected to real intimacy, whether that’s with a partner or with yourself.

There’s no judgment here, only truth, compassion, and tools to help you find balance and deeper connection in your life.

You can listen to Here Comes Sunshine on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your favorite podcast platform.
