EP. 179: ADHD, Relationships and Sex with Sex Educator, August McLaughlin

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At this point in the podcast I’ve covered just about every ADHD topic under the sun, but </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">one area I’ve always tiptoed around has been sexuality and ADHD; I’ve never been quite sure how to approach it, or whether my listeners even wanted to hear me talk about it for that matter! </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Luckily, sex educator, journalist, author, and podcaster, August McLaughlin, isn’t afraid to run head-on into the scary and taboo. She offered to hold my hand this episode as we slowly wade into the tricky but wonderful world of sex and ADHD, from self-connection and masturbation, to rejection sensitivity and relationships, to even ‘girl boners’–yup, you read that right.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you’ve ever wondered how ADHD impacts your own relationship with sexuality but have felt embarrassed or unsure of where to start, August’s brilliance, empathy, and passion for this work will give you the perfect jumping-off point and may even empower you to go on a self-discovery journey of your own.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Resources</strong><span style= "font-weight: 400;">:</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram:</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">@augustmclaughlin</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Podcast:</span> <a href= "https://augustmclaughlin.com/podcast/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Girl Boner Podcast</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Her website:</span> <a href= "http://augustmclaughlin.com/august/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">augustmclaughlin.com/august/</span></a></p>
