That's a Wrap
Whore Rapport
Aaaand just like that, we're wrapped (in leopard print). This has been a wild few years, and we're so grateful to have had you along for the ride. In this episode, we discuss the end of the Whore Rapport era, where we were versus where we are, and the problem with pumpkin spice. Ta-ta for now.

#52 Sexual Healing Part III
Whore Rapport
In our third and final episode in this series, we answer some questions including: how can sex heal when I think the problem is that we’re not having enough sex; does the cultural pressure around sex make the process of sexual healing harder to work through; and, can sex help heal the pain from cheating? As usual, these listener questions provided texture and depth to the discussion.

#51 Sexual Healing Part II
Whore Rapport
For part two we’re joined by our brilliant friend Caroline, an intimacy coach who works with clients to explore topics such as embodiment, desire, dating, attachment, boundaries, inner-child work, and pleasure. We discuss sexual healing as a practice, and its varying modalities; the inherent, and culturally imposed limitations of these practices; the value of vulnerability in a coach-client dynamic; and the far-reaching power of connection.

#50 Sexual Healing Part I
Whore Rapport
We’re kicking off another three part series! In this episode we begin by discussing the nature and breadth of sexual healing, as well as the ways in which we’ve come to understand it. We venture slightly into the relationship between trauma and healing, and we delve more deeply into the power of sex as a growth and healing modality. There’s much to explore with this topic, and we’re just getting started. Song featured: Ayo Technology - Live with Orchestra by Milow Rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes!

#49 The Madonna-Whore Complex
Whore Rapport
We’ve danced around this one, even discussed it explicitly once or twice, but we all know it deserved its own episode. This is a conversation about a culturally imposed lens that has done nothing but distort and obscure. Over the course of this conversation we discuss: the ways in which Freud’s madonna-whore complex has tainted our views of modern sexuality and relationships; why so many women struggle with the notion of “having it all,” and what to do about it.

#48 Relationship Communication
Whore Rapport
In this episode we talk about talking. Specifically, we discuss the nature and importance of discernment; the ways in which communication styles can vary relationship to relationship and person to person; and what happens when these styles don’t blend well, and things break down. Not surprisingly, we have a lot to say about the things we say. Song featured: Goddamn by Deva Mahal Rate, review, and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes!

#47 Perceived Sexual Dysregulation
Whore Rapport
We could have titled this episode “sexual dysfunction,” but we don’t believe in ghosts. This is a discussion about the ways in which we perceive and address so-called dysfunction, as it pertains to sexuality. Over the course of this basement conversation we explore the cultural impact of the wellness industry; the ways in which social media perpetuates shame; some root causes of sexual dysregulation; and tennis, sort of.

info_outlineWhat are we afraid of that also turns us on? What is the relationship between these things? What does it feel like to embody them together? How do we tell the difference between healthy and legitimate risk? These are just some of the themes we get into in this week’s episode. We also do some math: Fear(x) + Risk(x) + Vulnerability(x) = Authentic Intimacy Be sure to show your work when solving for your own personal x factors.
