How to talk about sex after becoming a parent

06/11/24 • 61 min

This episode is a corker. Right at the top of the things we find awkward to talk about – sex.

Specifically, we’re talking about sex after becoming a parent.

Sex and parenthood are not natural bedfellows (pun absolutely intended). Fortunately, we have Clio Wood, women’s health and sexual wellbeing expert and author of ‘How to get your mojo back’, on hand to offer some advice about tackling this topic.
