HEADS UP: We do touch on topics like sexism, gender dynamics, sexual identity, and societal pressures. There are also mentions of domestic and sexual violence. We use frank language and occasional swear words. Please take care while listening, and feel free to skip any parts that might be triggering. Your well-being is important to us.
In this episode, we delve into the complex interplay of societal expectations and sexual identity with the renowned Dr. Kate Balestrieri. Dr. Kate is a licensed psychologist, certified sex therapist, and the founder of Modern Intimacy, with years of experience practicing forensic psychology in prisons, working with both violent and non-violent offenders. With her extensive expertise, Dr. Kate provides valuable insights into how societal pressures shape our perceptions and behaviors related to personal sexual proclivities, preferences, and use of power. We also explore the roadmap to sexual liberation—and some consequences of not taking it.
Ali and Dr. Kate discuss sexual and cultural incarceration, highlighting how repression can lead to both personal, and literal, imprisonment. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of these critical issues and hear from a leading voice dedicated to smashing stigmas and promoting sexual well-being.

BIO: Dr. Kate Balestrieri is a licensed psychologist, certified sex therapist, the founder of Modern Intimacy, and host of the Get Naked with Dr. Kate podcast.
Modern Intimacy was born out of Dr. Kate Balestrieri’s recognition that all humans are social and relational beings. As such, mental health is directly tied to the quality of our relationships and sex life. Driven by her desire to smash stigmas about mental health and sexuality, Dr. Kate Balestrieri built a platform that not only connects clinicians trained in sex therapy with people seeking therapy for sexual issues, but also provides a safe, inclusive space for people to get access to education about sensitive topics that people live with every day, related to trauma, relationships, sexual health, any type of sexual dysfunction, sexual activity, and sexual problems.
