Faith Carter’s journey from a life defined by transactional sex and self-disgust to a place of sexual wholeness and joyful intimacy is nothing short of transformative. Once a young woman who used sex to obtain drugs and money, she found redemption through faith—but discovered that her past still haunted her marriage, where sex became a duty rather than a delight. For six years, she disassociated during intimacy, emotionally absent despite a loving husband. The turning point came not from external fixes, but from internal reclamation: realizing pleasure is not only permissible but divinely intended for her. Through a women’s coaching cohort, she learned to take full responsibility for her sex life, reframe sex as her 'party,' and embrace receiving pleasure as an act of self-worth. Her story reveals that true intimacy isn't about performance or perfection—it's about presence, communication, and the courage to say, 'I want this, too.' This episode dismantles the myth that sex is solely for the partner and reveals that the most powerful intimacy begins when a woman finally believes she deserves to be desired—and to desire in return.
Pleasure is for you—God created you to experience it just as much as your partner.
Disassociation in sex is a survival mechanism, not a personal failure.
Take 100% responsibility for your sex life—no more waiting for external fixes.
Receiving pleasure is not selfish—it’s essential for mutual connection.
Your sex life is not a competition of performance; it’s a shared party where both people get to enjoy.
