Owning Your Sexual Self

255. Speaking Your Desire with Bri Carey

Rachel Maine

Hello! Welcome back to Owning Your Sexual Self! This week I’m so excited to welcome Brianna Carey back to the show! Bri is a certified relationship and intimacy coach, a sexual health educator, and the co host of the Intimacy Evolution podcast, and she brings so much to conversations about desire and communication. She’s the person who first introduced me to speaking from desire, and every time I’m in her energy I walk away seeing relationships a little differently.

In this episode:

  • What it means to speak from desire instead of blame or pressure
  • Why direct requests can sometimes feel demanding
  • How desire based language creates more openness
  • The difference between desire and expectation
  • Simple everyday examples of speaking from desire
  • Why assumptions create disconnection
  • Common blocks like fear of being too much or rejected
  • The importance of practicing this skill over time instead of aiming for perfection 

Thank you so much for listening! Don't forget to share on your social media and tag me if you loved this episode!
