Episode 35: Sex Work & Sexual Liberation
If you consider yourself a sexually liberated person; if you call yourself a feminist; if you believe in the sexual liberation and sexual agency of others; if you’ve made it your job to instigate sexual liberation in others through things like sex coaching, pole dancing, sensuality courses, or any other forms of sexual healing; and you’re not using your voice to stand up for and support sex workers—you should be.

Episode 31: The Moon, The Stars, & My Sex Life

Episode 30: Slow & Sensual
A call to arms to slow the f— down. In this one, Ev'Yan shares a simple practice of sensual embodiment that she gives her clients (and uses herself) when she's too much in her head and not in her body.
