In this episode, we explore the edges of anticipation, control, and surrender, and how they can shift from dominance to care. We talk about what it means to give or withhold permission, how control can become healing, and the strategies we have that help us to imagine new ways of relating pleasure and freedom.
What’s Inside:
-The power of trust and surrender in control dynamics
-Mid scene check-ins and care practices that deepen safety
-Tools and toys that support sensation, control, and release
-Erotic visioning as a practice of freedom and self-knowledge
Guest:
