Anne Hodder: Owning Your Sh*t - Ep 26 American Sex Podcast

Sex educator & pleasure industry wonder woman, Anne Hodder, shares stories of her sex journalism days including the ongoing Village Voice, coast to coast, “girl-fight” she helped craft under the pseudonym Barbie Davenport. We discuss the importance of sex ed in rehab facilities and the myth of ‘sex addiction.’ Anne teaches us about breathwork & how science and the spiritual can come together to help us ‘own our shit’ in sex, relationships & all areas of life. Ken & Sunny get warm & fuzzy feedback from a fan.
