The Weekly Hot Spot

Kink for Dummies with Dr. Jaime Grant


Listen Later

Ever found yourself whispering a desire into the phone, prefacing it with, “You’re probably going to think I’m weird for this…”? If so, you’re far from alone. On this episode of The Weekly Hot Spot, Mistresses Olivia and Erika sit down with a true leader in the world of sexuality and relationships, Dr. Jaime Grant, to dismantle that very notion and explore the empowering landscape of kink.

Dr. Grant, a renowned research activist, relationship coach, and author of pivotal works like Great Sex: Mapping Your Desire and Polyamory for Dummies, joins us to discuss her latest essential guide, Kink for Dummies.

The conversation immediately delves into one of the most common hurdles for newcomers: the fear of being "weird." Dr. Grant brilliantly reframes kink not as an anomaly but as a deeply rooted part of human history and desire, sharing fascinating insights about "ancient kinksters" that will change how you view your own longings.

We focus on a question we hear constantly from listeners and callers alike:
How do I talk to my partner about kink?
This is where Dr. Grant’s expertise truly shines. She offers compassionate, practical advice for navigating these vulnerable conversations, whether you're in a long-term partnership or a new situationship.

She emphasizes the importance of building "faith in yourself" first, suggesting that sometimes the safest initial step is to find community and gather information outside the primary relationship to fortify your own understanding. As Mistress Olivia reflects, this often aligns with why individuals turn to Dommes like us for distance domination – it provides a structured, judgment-free space to explore without the complications of daily life.

Other topics include:
The ‘desire discordant’ couple and finding a ‘third way’ that honors the needs of both partners.
How to realistically create compromise in relationships.
The transformative power of kink and how exploring kink can become a radical act of self-reclamation. Dr. Grant says: “We’re dealt a hard hand around sexuality, but we get to play it however we want—for our own gratification.” That’s the promise of kink: not escape, but reclamation.
Using safe words in BDSM scenes, including the point that using a safe word isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s an act of profound communication and self-care that strengthens the entire dynamic.


This episode is a masterclass in normalizing kinky desire and providing the tools to integrate it into your life with confidence and safety. Dr. Grant’s wisdom, combined with our own experiences from the front lines of phone sex and distance domination, creates a dialogue that is both intellectually stimulating and deeply practical.

Ready to explore your desires with more clarity and courage?
What’s the one kinky desire you’ve been most nervous to voice?
We’d love to hear from you.
