For a long time, I was known by my wounds.
The survivor.
The one who made it through.
The one carrying stories no child should ever have to carry.
Today, I realized something I never thought would matter to me. I never imagined I would have credentials or initials behind my name. For most of my life, I wasn’t striving for titles or recognition. I was focused on surviving, healing, and finding my way forward.
But today, seeing those initials after my name felt surreal.
Not because of what they say about my accomplishments, but because of what they represent. They are proof of growth, perseverance, and the commitment I made to turn my pain into purpose. Earning dual certifications in s*xology is something I am incredibly proud of, and for the first time, those credentials feel deeply meaningful.
Today, I carry something else too: the honor of earning dual certifications in s*xology. These credentials represent years of study, growth, and a deep commitment to helping others understand themselves, their relationships, and their s*xual well-being with compassion and evidence-based education.
But healing has a way of changing the story.
Today, I am not just a Certified Sexologist. I am also a public information s*xologist, which simply means I help people understand s*xual health, relationships, consent, boundaries, and their bodies in a way that actually makes sense. A lot of us were never taught these things growing up. Some of us got misinformation. Some of us got silence. My job is to take accurate, science based information and break it down into real conversations that everyday people can understand and use in their lives.
This is what all of my education has led to.
I have learned that autonomy, boundaries, and consent are not complicated concepts reserved for experts. They are basic life skills. Autonomy means you get to make choices about your own body and life. Boundaries are the limits that help you feel safe and respected. Consent means everyone involved freely agrees without pressure, guilt, or fear. These are some of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves and each other.
And if any of this feels confusing, overwhelming, or new to you, that is okay. You can always reach out.
Today, I get to sit across from people who are rebuilding their lives, relationships, confidence, and connection to themselves. I work with survivors, people who never learned how to connect with their own needs, and those navigating betrayal, life transitions, and personal growth. I get to have conversations that many people were taught to avoid.
Because here is the truth:
Every single one of us has a body.
Not just a body that carries us through the day, but a body that stores memories, holds stress, experiences pleasure, signals danger, seeks connection, and deserves care.
Sexuality is about so much more than s*x.
It is about communication.
It is about boundaries.
It is about consent.
It is about safety.
It is about body image.
It is about relationships.
It is about understanding yourself.
It is about knowing your needs matter too.
For too many people, shame became the loudest voice in the room.
I believe education can change that.
I am proud to be Cinnamon Reign Burdett, ABS, a Certified Sexologist through the American Board of Sexology. More importantly, I am proud to use my lived experience, education, and voice to help people better understand themselves, build healthier relationships, and feel a little less alone in the process.
This work is personal.
It is not just what I do.
It is what I care about.
