Episode 65: Pleasure Principle


Listen Later

Who taught you about pleasure? How do you tap into the erotic? What is so innate to us sometimes can feel very disconnected 🫦 In this episode, Naana and Obie explore pleasure through the lens of Audre Lorde’s iconic essay, “Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic as Power”. Join us as we unpack how embracing the erotic, beyond just the sexual, can lead to deeper self-awareness, richer connections, and radical personal empowerment. From everyday joy to identity and societal norms, this conversation challenges the status quo and invites you to reclaim what feels good as a source of strength.
