Celebrating 6 Years of The Redhead Bedhead With a New Site Addition

On July 4th The Redhead Bedhead had its 6th anniversary. These last 6 years have flown by and I can’t believe how much time has passed.  Now, I could say a lot of stuff about the history of the site and what it means to me but, frankly, I’ve done that already and don’t want to be the sex blogger equivalent of the story-repeating grandma. So today I will simply say that over these last 6 years I have faced exhilarating highs and devastating lows, and they have been the best years of my life so far.

Thank you all for finding me, reading my work, sharing it, and coming back for more. Without you there is no Redhead Bedhead and I appreciate you all immensely. With that in mind, I made something for you! Look, all of my favorite posts, all in one place! This new page features over SEVENTY (I must really like my own work, eh?) of my favorites from over the last 6 years divided into 6 fun categories!

I hope you enjoy my (slightly egomaniacal) gift to you. I’m looking forward to many more years of talking about sex, mental health, and how none of us are broken and hope you’ll be along for the ride!

About JoEllen

JoEllen Notte is a writer, speaker, and mental health advocate whose work explores the impact of depression on sex and relationships. Since 2012 she has written about sex, mental health, and how none of us are broken here at The Redhead Bedhead.

JoEllen has led workshops nationwide on sexual communication, navigating consent, having casual sex kindly, and dating as an introvert. She has toured sex shops, spoken at length on dildos, and even started a sex school but she is happiest and most effective when writing and speaking on behalf of quiet people who have sex. Check out her video series on attending conferences as an introvert and her extensive writing on sex and depression.

JoEllen has spoken at Clark College, University of Chicago, University of Tennessee, the Guelph Sexuality Conference, Woodhull’s Sexual Freedom Summit, and the Playground Conference

JoEllen’s first book The Monster Under the Bed: Sex, Depression & The Conversation We Aren’t Having was published by Thorntree Press in March 2020. Her new book In It Together: Navigating Depression with Partners, Friends, and Family was published by Thornapple Press in March 2023.
