Pleasure isn't something you've missed the boat on, or a part of yourself you're too late to reconnect with. So many women were simply never taught how their own desire and arousal actually work, and then quietly wonder why they feel disconnected from it.

Anxiety isn't a flaw to fix or a feeling you have to wait out before you're allowed to live.
