The Limerick Lady 69: Sex-Positivity and Entrepreneurship with Shawna Scott, Sex Siopa
Description
Come one, come all! This month we celebrate 69 episodes of the Limerick Lady with a chat about sex, sex myths, the sex toy industry and lots more with Seattle-born, Galway-based Shawna Scott the founder and owner of "Sex Siopa".
Shawna talks to us about seeing a gap and choosing to fill it, about the holes in medical professionals' knowledge around sexual health and pleasure, and about how she opened up for business during the pandemic. We will not be apologising for euphemistic language, no we will not.
Shawna Scott is the owner and founder of the multi-award winning SexSiopa.ie and BodyGra.ie. Since 2012 she has been utilizing Sex Siopa as a platform to get Ireland comfortable with talking about sex and pleasure with a focus on health and inclusion. Over the years this has caught the attention of health care workers in Ireland, which has provided Shawna the opportunity to work with doctors and professionals in the areas of cancer, endometriosis, physical therapy, and gynaecology to create holistic, individualised care solutions for people with complex health needs. She has featured in countless publications, radio & tv programmes, and has spoken at events both within Ireland and internationally.
When she's not flogging dildos, Shawna loves crocheting, watching horror movies, and spending time in the back garden with her rescue greyhound.
