In a previous episode, we learned about the pleasure of submission so it’s only right to learn about dominance as well. My conversation with Venus Cuffs, Domme and BDSM consultant, gets a little heavy as we discuss overcoming challenges like racial trauma and lack of safe mentors to find the best way to connect to your inner dominant. She also highlights some major benefits of being a Domme like always having a clean home, which is something I can totally get with.

Indulgence

Nichole recommends weird smells and James Joyce’s eproctophilic love letters!

About The Show

Nichole Perkins wants people to stop feeling bad about feeling good, and This Is Good For You lets you know you are never alone in what you like. Every episode, Nichole explores something that people love—whether it’s needlepoint, watching bad movies with friends, or cowgirl exercise classes—and asks experts and devotees why it makes them happy. She ends each show with an Indulgence: a recommendation listeners can enjoy with no remorse. There’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure when you learn to love it freely! To find out what’s good for you, listen to new episodes every other Friday.
