Actionable steps for this episode:

• People who are socialized as female tend to be taught to prioritize others desires before their own
• People with vulvas' pleasure is often not prioritized in our media
• You have PERMISSION to prioritize your pleasure and communicate your desires
• Ingredients for better intimacy:

1. Decrease stress
2. Connect with your body
3. Ask yourself what you want (this doesn't even have to be about sex- you can start really small and just ask yourself what you want for dinner!)
4. Make sure your "inner spotlight" is shining on you during intimate contact, not JUST your partner.
