About this listen

Jay and Petra get deep into the difference between true celibacy and surface-level abstinence, revealing how the intention behind abstaining from sex can either fuel personal growth or create emotional walls. They unpack the psychological and relational impact of celibacy, challenging popular narratives and exploring how motives—whether rooted in fear, healing, or control—ultimately shape one’s ability to experience authentic connection and intimacy.
