EP47: Kim Anami on Reprogramming for Birth, Sex and Beyond

Kim Anami is a sex and relationship coach, vaginal weightlifter, surfer and mom. With decades worth of experience in Tantra, Taoism, Osho and Transpersonal psychology, she has helped countless women and men heal and maximize their innate sexual nature.

What Kim Shares:

  • How our sexual, emotional and psychological blocks show up in the birth experience
  • The importance of removing these blocks in order to have an empowering birth
  • Orgasmic birth; what it means and how to create the best conditions for having one
  • Preparing for birth with sex; what can orgasms, exploratory sex, and even female ejaculation teach us about giving birth

What You’ll Hear:

  • Why women need to address their emotional and psychological healing even and especially when they are pregnant

  • Kim’s perspective on the use of jade eggs
  • How unresolved distance in the relationship becomes the perfect excuse to not be sexual after birth
  • Learning how to push
  • The connection between female ejaculation and the fetal ejection reflex

  • Inductions disrupt the natural production of the hormones that create the fetal ejection reflex
  • Learning how to trust ourselves and our instincts; “there’s a lot more that can go right than go wrong.”
  • Deprogramming and reprogramming during pregnancy
  • Why we must fiercely protect our pleasure, our choices for our births, and our sexual health
