Welcome back to the HEAR HER podcast.

In this episode, Heather sits down with Corinne Gardner for an honest, nuanced conversation around sexual wellness, self-trust, and what it really means to feel safe in your body.

Corinne shares her personal journey—from experiencing sexual trauma and feeling disconnected from her body to slowly rebuilding trust, voice, and intimacy through support, coaching, and deep inner work.

They explore how shame, judgment, and cultural conditioning shape the way women relate to their bodies, their desires, and their relationships—and how creating safety is the foundation for reconnecting with themselves.

This conversation opens the door to topics that are often avoided, offering a grounded, compassionate space to begin listening more deeply to your body, your needs, and your truth.


In This Episode:

The impact of shame, judgment, and conditioning on women’s relationships with their bodies 
Rebuilding trust in your voice, your needs, and your intuition 
What it means to feel safe in your body after disconnection or trauma 
How cultural and relational patterns influence what we tolerate in relationships 
The role of safety in moving from the head into the body and heart 
Pleasure as something we belong to—not something we earn or avoid 
Creating space to speak honestly, even when it feels uncomfortable or unfamiliar
