Permission: Beyond Shame, Beyond Kink

from Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley · host The Transformation Network™

Most people don't tell the truth about what they want. Not in bed.Not in relationships.Not even to themselves. In this episode of Skin & Soul, Gwenm sits down with Amanda Dames, founder of The Kink Consultant, to talk about fantasy, kink, romance, desire, shame, and the strange things that happen when we spend years pretending we don't want what we want. From fairy tales to fetishes, from secret turn-ons to hidden longings, this conversation explores what our desires might be trying to show us and why so many of us are terrified of finding out. Because sometimes the hardest person to tell the truth to is ourselves.
