Talking to your kids about sex can feel overwhelming. When should you start? What should you say? What if you've waited too long? And how do you teach your children about God's design for sex in a culture that's already teaching them something else?This week, we sit down with Kristen Miele, founder of Sex Ed Reclaimed, to talk about one of the most intimidating topics in parenting. Kristen has spent more than 15 years equipping families to have honest, age-appropriate conversations about sex, puberty, pornography, relationships, and God's beautiful design for our bodies.Together, we discuss:• How to talk to your kids about sex without fear or shame• When parents should start talking about sex (it's probably earlier than you think)• Why "the talk" shouldn't be one awkward conversation• What to do if you feel like you've already waited too long• How to create ongoing, age-appropriate conversations about sex• Why parents, not culture, should be the primary voice shaping their children's understanding of sex• How to help your children develop a healthy, biblical understanding of sex, puberty, relationships, and God's designIf the words sex education make you think of uncomfortable classrooms, awkward conversations, or something you'd rather avoid, this episode will completely change your perspective. As Kristen explains, sex education isn't one awkward talk. It's a lifetime of conversations that help our children understand God's beautiful design before the world teaches them a counterfeit.Whether your children are toddlers, elementary-aged, tweens, or teenagers, this conversation will encourage you to start where you are. If you've never talked about sex before, it's not too late. If you've already started, you'll leave with practical ideas for continuing the conversation in a way that builds trust, confidence, and a biblical foundation.Because when it comes to talking about sex, our goal isn't simply to protect our children. It's to prepare them with truth.How to connect with Kristen:Learn more about Sex Ed Reclaimed *use code " ROCKCO" for 20% off the Sex Education curriculumFollow Kristen on Instagram How to connect with Raising Rock:
