Ep33 - Valentining (with Landa Fox)

Do you get uncomfortable talking about sexual health, especially with caregivers?

Do you wish talking about sex was less taboo?

During today’s meal— I speak with a Board Certified Behaviour Analyst and Certified Sexual Health Educator about affirming and rights-based sex education, actions we can take to become more comfortable discussing these topics, as well as my dinner guest’s favorite dessert.

About Landa Fox, MA, BCBA, Certified Sexual Health Educator

Landa Fox (she/her) is a Board Certified Behaviour Analyst and Certified Sexual Health Educator living and working in lək̓ʷəŋən (pronounced: Le-Kwung-gen) Territory (Victoria, British Columbia). She is also currently pursuing a Masters in Counselling Psychology.

She has worked in the field of autism and disability support since 2003. Currently, her work focuses on sexual health, relationship, and safety education for autistic and neurodivergent people. Her work often centers around creating and modifying existing sexual health and relationship education to be meaningful, accessible, and inclusive. She also works to create behaviour support plans to address contextually inappropriate sexual behaviour.

All of her work is grounded in principles of harm reduction. She trains caregivers, teachers, staff, and communities about sexual health development and inclusive sex ed. Her special interests within the area of sexual health education include how to promote a culture of consent and body autonomy for autistic children and youth, developing affirming and rights-based sex education, and advocating for access to sexuality and sexual health for everyone.

When she’s not teaching about sex education, she is probably reading a book about sex, bodies, or relationships, reorganizing and recharging her sex toy collection, getting a tattoo, listening to Reba McEntire, or eating dill pickle chips.
