From Tourist to Local: Reinventing Yourself

56. Living on The Edge of Sacred and Sensual: Dante Deeper's 4-Year Journey to Becoming an Erotic Artist


Listen Later

In part 2 of our conversation with Dante Deeper, we dive into the juicy stuff - performance, embodiment, sexuality, and what it really means to move at your own pace in a world obsessed with speed.

Dante shares their journey from being too shy to sing in middle school chorus to performing drag, burlesque, becoming an erotic artist and OnlyFans creator. But this isn't just about performance - it's about the courage to explore who you are authentically, even when it scares you.

⚡Mentioned in this episode:

  • How fear and desire often point to the same thing
  • Why Dante spent 4 years deciding to become an erotic artist (and the mindset shift that finally made them ready)
  • The difference between pandering to others vs. creating from authentic desire
  • What "moving slowly" looks like when you're building creative projects
  • How to define success beyond money and visibility
  • Why taking time to "marinate" your ideas might be the secret to authentic expression
