Sexual Esteem with Jean Franzblau

Aired Thursday, 10 September 2015, 4:00 PM ET

Martha welcomes Jean Franzblau to explore the elements that make up sexual esteem. Jean defines sexual esteem as “confidence in the worth of one’s sexuality.” Life events that can lower sexual esteem can include being the member of a sexual minority, religious influences, genital shaming during childhood and adolescence or traumatic sexual experiences. Luckily there are just as many interventions that can help claim, build and celebrate sexual esteem and Jean will share them with us.
