How Would You Touch Yourself If You Were Your Own Perfect Lover? — with Kendra Cunov
When was the last time you approached your own body like your perfect lover would? Without expectation, and instead with curiosity and reverence? In this episode, we sit down with Kendra Cunov — one of our earliest and most formative teachers in sovereignty, boundaries, and embodiment — for a...

Revelations from a Masculine Erotic Reclamation with Dennis Hull
What happens when a man who spent his whole life being the calm, steady, safe one discovers there's a part of himself he's been burying, the part that has desires, that wants to ravish, that doesn’t want to be so careful? In this episode, we sit down with Dennis Hull — former Fortune 50 corporate...

I Was So Afraid of Being Abandoned in Love That I Abandoned Myself First
If you ever feel like you have to contort yourself, mold yourself, people-please or perform to be loved, this one is for you. When we believe love requires this of us, we get really good at compromising ourselves, our needs, our values, and our desires, while prioritizing those of others. But the...

How to Make Your Relationship Feel Fresh and Spontaneous (No Matter How Long You’ve Been Together)
Three problems that seem unrelated but are actually the same thing: your sex life is on repeat, someone's always complaining about what's missing, and when one of you asks for something different, the other spirals. Underneath all three is the same gap: you don't have a way to bring new desires...

The Bedroom is the Dojo
Most people treat sex as something that happens in its own lane: a release, a recreation, separate from the rest of life. But actually, intentionally improving your sex life — learning to claim your desires, hear rejection without collapsing, negotiate disagreements, stay present during…

I Want Something My Partner Doesn’t… Now What?
You want something that your partner doesn't. Or maybe they do, but not like that or not right now. Or maybe you don't even know what they think, because you’re convinced they won't like it or won’t agree. And now you're stuck in a gridlock that feels like one or both of you will just have to go...

Over 60 and More Erotic Than Ever
It’s a big fat cultural lie that women hit a sexual peak in their 20s or 30s and then decline. The reality for many women post-menopause is the opposite: sovereignty, freedom from giving a f*ck, deeper self-knowledge, and a richer relationship with pleasure. In this episode, we sit down with Lisa...

I Don't Want to Mess This Up… But I Want More
You have a desire you haven’t said out loud. Maybe it’s kinky, maybe it’s opening the relationship, maybe it’s something you read in a book about fae or dragons. Whatever it is, you’re terrified your partner will react badly to hearing your desire, so you sit on it… and sit on it… and sit on it,...
-
What if There’s Nothing in You to Fix?
Personal improvement is a beautiful goal, but the impulse sometimes comes from a painful place within. It might feel like "I'm broken," or "everyone else has this figured out," or "if I just learn this one more thing, I'll finally feel okay." This becomes perfectionism, people-pleasing,...
-
Foreplay and Precare
There's often a gap between "I want to have sex" and actually being ready for it. You've been at work, with the kids, managing logistics, living in your head — and now you're supposed to just... switch into sexy mode? Most people either skip the warmup entirely or go through the motions of what...
-
I Should Be Turned On Right Now… So Why Aren't I?
Theoretically, the idea of sex sounds great. You're into them, you’re not too tired, it sounds like a fun time. But at the exact same time, your body is tensing, stalling, freezing, clamming up. This yes/no mismatch is so common, but we almost never talk about it. Instead, we generally either…

Aftercare: The Antidote to Feeling Dropped After Sex
Welcome to the intentional, delicious, warm and fuzzy bridge between intimacy and the rest of your life. Aftercare isn’t just a BDSM thing, it’s a common answer to the question why we can end up feeling empty or dropped or vulnerable after sex… even when the sex was good. In this episode, we…

What is Energetic Sex?
This one is for the HSPs, empaths, energetic erotic blueprints, and anyone who feels things they don’t understand… In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on a form of intimacy that doesn’t require touch, nudity, or even proximity. We share how energy shows up in our bodies, our...

When Intimacy is Frictiony and You're Not Sure Why
What’s actually going on when your partner says “I don’t feel wanted” and you’re thinking “but I text you every day”? In this episode, we dig into the unspoken assumptions that quietly erode intimacy: the projections from past relationships, the vague desires we expect our partners to decode, and...

What Romantasy Knows About Sex That Most People Don't
You’re curled up in bed with your romantasy, your romance novel, your erotica. Your partner is next to you, but you hardly notice. The heat coming off the pages is taking all your attention. But what is it, exactly, that makes these novels so irresistible, and is any of it actually available to…

The Art of Dominance
What does good Dominance actually look like? In this episode we’re getting into the subtle skills: reading a body in real time, making split-second decisions when a scene doesn’t go as planned, and knowing how to press on someone’s tenderest spots without leaving them worse than you found them....
-
Sex, Tech, and the Body: When Fantasy Becomes Dissociation
Chatrooms, sex bots, and AI porn are hot, but can they actually satisfy without your body in the mix? In this episode, we wade into the murky, squirmy territory of sexual technology, holding space for both the gifts (safety, access, exploration after trauma) and the shadow sides (dissociation,...
-
Desire: Feel It, Name It, Claim It
Slowing down the practice of desire doesn’t mean more waiting. It means more juiciness, more insight, and more intimacy, with yourself and another. In this episode, we introduce our five-stage desire framework: feeling/sensing, articulating, claiming, negotiating, and giving/receiving. We explore...
-
When Submission Gets Gritty
So you crave to be a submissive… but what are you actually submitting to? In this episode, we unpack layers of devotion: to a partner, to life, to the divine, and perhaps most importantly, to your own choice and desire. We explore how submission isn’t a single act but an ongoing practice of...
-
Submission Starts with You
What does submission actually feel like? Not in the fantasy-land of your imagination, but in your body? In this episode, we dive deep into the raw, sometimes contradictory experience of being a submissive: the exquisite freedom, the moments of resistance, the shadow sides that can hijack the…

Hi, I'm a Submissive
Submission is one of those things that lives in the cultural imagination: it’s whispered about, fantasized over, but rarely discussed honestly by the people actually living it. In this episode, we share what submission and surrender mean to us. Because in our lives, it’s not role play or a...
