How to Talk About Sex with Waratah Karleu - Changing Conversations

Equip yourself with the tools and knowledge from this interactive session to give voice to the hot, emotionally charged and somewhat secretive topic of sex.

Attempting to talk about sex can feel overwhelming. Or downright impossible, for some!

How do you bring sex up in a way that sparks a change in attitude and behaviour?

Sex is one of the biggest taboo topics on the menu of conversations. The secrecy status isn't serving individuals or the society but rather stunts growth, leaving many important challenges unresolved and many people without education and support.

Whenever we are unable to talk about sex, and all the intertwined areas, we cannot express ourselves, voice our concerns and deepen our relationships.

In this conversation, a passionate sexologist, intimacy consultant and couples therapists will help us lift the veil of covertness, helping us learn better ways to speak up about intimacy, sex, love and life, feeling empowered and masterful.

This conversation will help us understand why sex is a taboo, how to get comfortable talking about sex, help fostering better self-awareness and navigate emotions.
