Sex, Intimacy, & Swagger After Babies with Dr. Uchenna Ossai

Sarah Bradford & Stephanie Nelson Season 1 Episode 4

Sarah & Stephanie sit down with Dr. Uchenna "UC" Ossai, a sex-positive pelvic health physical therapist and sexuality educator + counselor. Dr. UC is assistant professor at the University of Texas Dell Medical School and also serves as pelvic health program manager at UT Health Austin. She is on faculty for the University of Michigan, School of Social Work’s Sexual Health Certification Program. Dr. UC is one of few licensed physical therapists in the world with an AASECT certification in sexuality counseling; as well as the only Black physical therapist with this specific designation. We dive deep into topics such as how to talk to your children about cultivating a positive relationship with sexuality, reigniting sexual attraction to your partner and rediscovering your body after babies, ways to increase a seemingly absent libido, feeling sexy again in your post-baby body, and making painful sex pleasurable again. Nothing is off the table in this episode and we promise it's one you won't want to miss!

MORE ABOUT DR. UCHENNA OSSAI:
Dr. UC spends her days treating people with both sexual and pelvic floor dysfunction, and her evenings educating the masses on everything that has to do with “sexytime”. When it comes to sexual intelligence and great sex education, UC embraces always being unapologetically real, happily crunk, and deliciously kind. For our fellow health professionals, wellness warriors, and fitness pros, DR. UC also offers a virtual class titled "The Intersections of Racism and Power - Healthcare Redefined." Her next live course is on August 29th - click HERE to learn more and to register.
