Beyond the Bedroom: Shauna Harris on True Intimacy

When people hear the word intimacy, a lot of people just go straight for the sex, and I like to think of that as sort of like the last piece of the puzzle, because there's so many other things that build intimacy and create that really strong foundation that we want, and that actually propels us to many, many, many years of an extraordinary marriage or an extraordinary relationship.

Ever wondered what intimacy really means beyond just the physical? In this eye-opening episode of Elevated Voices Podcast, host Dysheka Bibbs, a seasoned therapist, sits down with Shauna Harris, a Clinical Sexologist and Intimacy Coach. Shauna dives into her book, 'Speaking of Sex', and together they unpack the six types of intimacy that form the bedrock of healthy relationships. From recreational intimacy to the importance of vulnerability, this conversation covers it all.

They also tackle tough subjects like domestic violence, the cycle of abuse, and learned behaviors, offering practical advice for creating and sustaining fulfilling relationships. Whether you're in a relationship or navigating your own path, this episode provides valuable insights and tools to help you understand and cultivate true intimacy.
