We are inundated with messages about “reclaiming” our bodies—flaunt it if you got it, your naked body is your power, free the nipple—but it all feels shallow, like headlines without any follow-through…

In this bonus I share my ChatGPT confessions and Tara discusses the ways AI therapy profits off our insecurities.

Tara also takes us into the therapy room, sharing what she sees women navigating in the “open sexuality” world, the common threads of trauma, and the difficulties of moving past performative intimacy. We get into the pornified “new age goddess” culture, the strange experience I had of a free chiropractic session turned porn-y YouTube clickbait, and why boundaries around how our images are shared matter. We ask: what are the costs of changing our beliefs and finally I share why I took down the German New Medicine podcast episode.
