Jocelyn is a full-service sex worker who’s seen many aspects of the industry, and who currently specializes in sexual healing and sexual surrogacy. Joslyn is a 37 year old, cisgender female who describes herself as white, pansexual, polyamorous, single and dating, and Canadian.  She grew up in a Protestant Christian home.  She describes her body as athletic with curves.  How Healing Happens: Sex work can be a bridge to all levels of healing, from getting basic touch needs met to helping the body re-wire for safety after trauma to helping people with physical difficulties achieve sexual experiences at all.   Bookmark moments: 5:04 - Jocelyn shares her first memory of sexual pleasure—kissing during after-school care with a boy she liked. 7:30 - There was no Sex Ed or discussion at home.

Therefore I’ve placed it in this separate space so you can opt in to listening to it if you choose.  Jocelyn shares how she initially gave consent, how it rapidly turned non-consensual, the processing she has done in the intervening years, and the feelings she now has about the man she was with that night. This is available to everyone, regardless of whether you are a patron or not.  Jocelyn and I talk about whether the reported statistics for childhood abuse of boys are far too low How Jocelyn separates her personal sexuality from her “work” sexuality; also, how she talks with her son about sex The extended Lowdown Q&A REMEMBER: ALL audio extras are now FREE for everyone!!!!!  They can be accessed at www.patreon.com/goodgirlstalkaboutsex.  If you’d like to support the work I do, you can make a monthly contribution at that site.    PJ PARTIES!!
