A new episode is live!
In this episode, I sit down with Brittany Broaddus-Smith—a Christian sexologist and the bold, brilliant founder of The Intimacy Firm—for an eye-opening conversation at the intersection of faith, sexuality, and healing. We dive into taboo topics often brushed aside in the church, including the legitimacy of soul ties, the emotional confusion they can bring, and why over-spiritualizing these concepts can cause more harm than good. Brittany keeps it all the way real, offering clarity, nuance, and a path to healing that doesn’t require abandoning your faith.
We also explore how millennials are redefining their relationship with the church, why many are stepping away, and what it would take to bring them back. Brittany shares her thoughts on creating church spaces that support open conversations about sexuality, pleasure, and identity—with no judgment attached.
We also discuss:
💒 What it means to be a Christian sexologist
🧠 The truth about soul ties and spiritual-emotional connections
🙅🏽♀️ Why shame has no place in sex or faith
📉 The church’s disconnect with millennials and Gen Z
If you’ve ever felt torn between your faith and your sexuality—or if you’re just curious about what it looks like to embrace both without compromise—this episode is for you.
