#13: Birth as a sexual experience with sex therapist Anna-Riitta Kässi

On today’s episode you will meet Anna-Riitta Kässi, a doula, owner of Doula Akatemia a center for doula training, as well as a sex educator and therapist. Our conversation focused on the topic of sex and sexuality along the journey of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Anna-Riitta goes into the sensitivities around sex and intimacy at each of these very different times in the relationship and in each one of the partners separately as well. We explore body image issues after birth, how a positive or a negative birth experience can influence your sexual desires, bust a few myths about sex in pregnancy, redefining sex to fit our needs and desires, and why birth itself is actually a sexual event! Let’s get started. Show notes:  Anna-Riitta's website  Anna-Riitta's email address: [email protected]  Anna-Riitta's Instagram account  Mama Mojo podcast by Anna-Riitta
