Engaging With Human Sexuality featuring Dr. Theo Burnes

Pleasure is for everybody. In this episode, Dr.

Patrice is joined by psychologist, educator, and author Dr. Theo Burnes for a conversation about what it truly means to engage with human sexuality through an inclusive, compassionate, and culturally humble lens.

Drawing from his work in mental health care for sex workers, his upcoming textbook on human sexuality, and his philosophy that pleasure is a universal right, Dr. Burnes explores how embracing diverse and often marginalized experiences expands our collective understanding of sexuality, well‑being, and mental health.

Together, they examine the roles of access, identity, and representation—and how the stories we carry shape our relationship to our bodies and desires. Their conversation invites a deeper look at how personal history informs both mental and sexual well‑being, reminding us that every journey is unique, valid, and deeply worth honoring.
