From coming out in high school in Brooklyn in the 80’’s, to moving to California,  to leaving college and moving into hypnotherapy, and finally landing in the world of embodiment and somatics sexual therapy, and becoming a facilitator at The Body Electric School; JoJo’s resume reads more like a permission slip. The theme of todays episode is very much that: permission. Permission to be sexual, permission to be messy, permission to be shameless, and permission to be you, and permission to be you. We’re joined by Somatic Sex and Intimacy Educator JoJo Bear, where we discuss somatics, sexuality, spirituality, mentorship, healing from shame, reading the room, facilitating, and more.
