    From Insecure to Irresistible: Sexual Confidence Unleashed

    Best quote from From Insecure to Irresistible: Sexual Confidence Unleashed

    “

    Confidence isn't the absence of insecurity; it's the ability to be present with your desires despite those insecurities. When we're mentally checking out to worry about our bodies, we're not actually experiencing the pleasure that's available to us.

    ”

    This audio lesson was created by a BeFreed community member

    Input question

    I love sex but I have insecurities with my body, eye contact and speaking dirty talk during sex. More confidence!
