129. The SEX Episode: A Needed Conversation for Christian Women an Open Conversation w/ Brittany Braswell & Shaela Daugherty

Hey Friend, 

Today’s episode is one so many Christian women have quietly asked for, and I finally decided it was time to bring it into the light.

I just released a brand-new podcast episode The Sex Episode! It’s honest, gentle, and based on truth. If you’ve ever struggled with shame around your body, your story, or intimacy within marriage… this conversation will give you language, compassion, and hope.

Inside the episode, we talk about:

• Why shame shows up in our bodies

• How our past experiences shape our view of intimacy

• The difference between cultural narratives and biblical truth

• What healing can actually look like for Christian women

This is one of those episodes that many women will listen to in the car or on a walk with headphones in, just to have a safe space to think and breathe.

In grace + health, 

Lacy Lain
