206. Summer Lovin’ Series: Week Eight, Pleasure and Orgasm with Bonny Burns

Listen to this episode from Female by Design on Spotify. Welcome to the Summer Lovin’ Series, where we are taking some of the most beloved episodes and bringing you a mix of equipping you with a mix of mindset, mentoring and practicals to help you see the goodness of God in your bedroom and your body. Are you tuned into your female body? Often, even bringing up the topic of the clitoris or vagina can cause Christian women to shut down. As Bonny shares, when you have education about something, it becomes less scary. And, yet, most women don’t have much understanding of their genitalia. Bonny breaks down the science and the scriptures to give you permission to know your body and understand how your amazing female body works. In this chat we talk about anatomy, desire, low drives/high drives, growth mindset, loving your female body, arousal, orgasm, communication and shifting gears toward more mutual satisfaction in the bedroom and so much more. Bonny is the mentor we all want on these topics. More about Bonny Burns: Bonny Burns works to empower the wife with low sexual interest, little sex drive, and possibly a sexless marriage through science, scripture, and stories.  She writes at oysterbed7.com and podcasts at Sex Chat for Christian Wives.
