Curiosity keeps love alive.
🎙 Key Topics & Timestamps
1. Rewriting Sexual Scripts (04:09)
“It’s okay to look at them and go, hey, is this really the script I still want to follow? Or do I want to do a rewrite?”
Lauren Racehel
Outdated beliefs about bodies, sex, and roles often sneak in early in life and quietly shape choices. Recognizing them as “scripts” allows you to decide if they still fit—or if it’s time for a rewrite. This creates freedom to align intimacy with who you really are today.
2. Healing the Sexual Garden (13:35)
“Some beliefs feel like dandelions we can pull, but some are like soil blight. And yet, a good farmer knows soil blight can be healed.”
Lauren Racehel
Deeply rooted shame and negative beliefs can feel permanent, but healing is possible. Just like tending a garden, cultivating intimacy takes patience, sunlight, and nourishment. Seeing it this way replaces shame with compassion and invites long-term healing.
3. Bringing Curiosity Back to Long-Term Love (32:03)
“So many of us have lost curiosity in our long-term partnerships. And there is nothing wrong with wanting surprise, anticipation, or a bit of play.”
Lauren Racehel
Long-term safety doesn’t have to mean boredom. By discovering personal erotic themes and sprinkling them back into relationships, intimacy can feel exciting again. Curiosity and play are not only allowed—they’re essential ingredients for keeping desire alive.
