More importantly—we talk about how to come back online. &amp;amp;nbsp;Key Discussion Points:  &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; Why you may feel numb during intimacy (and how to change it)  &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;The hidden ways trauma lives in the body&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;   &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;What it really means to be sexually embodied&amp;amp;nbsp;   &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;The myth of “I’m not ready yet” and how it keeps women stuck&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;   &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;How spirituality and sensuality were never meant to be separate   &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;The vagina-brain connection and why your pleasure is your power&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;   &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;How to reconnect with yourself without needing to “fix” anything   GUEST:&amp;amp;nbsp; AVA PIKUL  Ava Pikul is a Tibetan Five Elements Practitioner, ABS Sexologist, and Rapid Transformational Therapist who guides women from burnout to embodied bliss.
