I’m not about to tell you to go out and have unprotected sex. In fact, I’m going to do just the opposite. Having safe sex is so important to staying healthy and protecting yourself. You already know that (hopefully).
What you may not know is that, according to the American Sexual Health Association, one in two sexually active people will contract a sexually transmitted disease by the age of 25.
That’s a pretty significant number. If you don’t have an STD (or have never had one), chances are the person sitting next to you does or has at one point.
We all have sex dreams. Sometimes they’re super-weird and we’d rather just forget they happened. Other times, they’re super-hot and are worthy of being saved forever in your secret spank bank. If you’ve ever been confused, excited, or just plain freaked out by a sex dream, you’re not alone; and there are even experts to figure out what they mean!

There are so many times in our lives where an idea seems to fall out of the sky, hitting us on the head, making us wonder how we’ve never thought of it before. Much like the apple falling on top of Isaac Newton, discovering gravity.
On today’s show, Emily is joined by former bachelorette and host of the podcast “Off the Vine” Kaitlyn Bristowe and the two are talking about embracing your authentic and sexy self to help build your confidence in and out of the bedroom.

Q: DEAR EMILY,
Stocksy
I have been with my boyfriend for about a year. He recently transferred law schools, so now we’re in a long-distance relationship. I’m so proud of him, but in a shocking twist, not as psyched about the distance. I really value physical touch in love-language-speak and, well, long-distance makes that a bit difficult.
At first, sexting and phone sex were new and exciting for the two of us, but it’s become harder to initiate with him back in school and living with roommates (yes, I know, another glorious shift). Do you have any recommendations for keeping things hot?
Any advice would be appreciated, and thanks again for all that you do!
Amy, 27, SC
