Intro to Sex & Relationships

Welcome to In Session! A new podcast brought to you by three professionals in the mental health field who want to normalize and de-stigmatize mental health while answering some questions you may have about accessing resources in your own community or on campus!

In this series, we're going to start unpacking some of the intricacies of sex and relationships, as well as sharing resources you can access as you navigate these topics in your own life.

Resources:

Note: We catch ourselves many times referring to cis-het relationships, but these topics apply to relationships of all kinds and we will touch more on more diverse relationship dynamics throughout the series.
