5 // Breaking the Silence: S*x, Shame & Raising Brave Daughters // Solo

In this powerful solo “rip,” Michelle Castro dives into a topic every mama knows is necessary but often feels totally unprepared for: how to talk to your daughters about sex. With raw honesty, biblical wisdom, and her signature real-talk humor, Michelle walks us through why these conversations matter, how to start them early, and how to keep them going in a way that’s age-appropriate, truthful, and full of grace.

If you’ve ever broken into a cold sweat at the thought of “the talk,” this episode will equip and encourage you to open up meaningful, ongoing dialogues with your girls—without shame, fear, or weirdness.

  • How to stay calm when your kid drops a bombshell question

  • Proverbs 31:26 parenting—wise and warm words in tough moments

  • Not just a “don’t”—teaching the why behind God’s design for sex

  • Purity is about saying YES to God’s best, not just saying no

  • Song of Solomon and why pleasure is part of God's good design
