So your heart’s been smashed and the thought of sex feels… impossible? We’ve been there. But what if getting back in touch with your pleasure was the key to actually healing? In this episode of The Break Up Diet, we’re joined by Lovehoney's sexologist and founder of Good Vibes Clinic, Christine Rafe, for our spiciest chat yet and trust us, it’s the post-breakup pep talk you didn’t know you needed.
Christine gets real about why we slide back into toxic “Dick Sand” with our exes, how to spot if you’re chasing a rebound for the wrong reasons, and why your body feeling foreign after heartbreak is totally normal (and temporary). She shares her step-by-step tips for rediscovering your sensuality, starting with little non-sexual pleasures — sunshine, laughter, friendship — before graduating to self-exploration, confidence-building, and yes… the toys that can change the game. 👀
We also dive into the messy psychology of attachment, how to actually set boundaries around trust and cheating (spoiler: everyone defines it differently), and why single, child-free women just might be the happiest demographic of all. Whether you’re fresh out of a breakup, questioning your worth, or just curious about how to build the best sex life on your own terms, this conversation will make you laugh, squirm, and maybe even order a new toy by the end.
Heartbreak hurts — but your sexy is waiting to be stolen back.
