40. Why Pleasure Matters More Than You Think with Kris Hall

Written By Emma Goff

In this episode, I’m joined by Kris Hall, a sex and relationship coach who helps people reconnect with their bodies, their pleasure, and their sense of aliveness.

We explore what it actually means to feel connected to your body—not just in theory, but in a lived, embodied way. From meditation to self-exploration, Kris shares how pleasure isn’t just about sex—it’s a vital sign of your overall well-being.

We also talk about:

  • Why so many women feel disconnected or numb when it comes to pleasure

  • The role of meditation and body awareness in improving intimacy

  • Painful sex, healing, and learning to listen to your body

  • Why pleasure can be seen as a form of rebellion and reclamation

  • How understanding your menstrual cycle can support intimacy and desire

  • The connection between self-awareness, communication, and better relationships

  • What it looks like to introduce age-appropriate conversations about bodies and pleasure

This conversation is an invitation to get curious about your body, your sensations, and what it might feel like to come back to yourself—without pressure or performance.
