Please Me! A Sexuality Podcast

In this episode of the Please Me! Podcast, Dr. Eve continues her Kink Education Series, inspired by DomCon New Orleans, offering a deeper, trauma-informed exploration of BDSM, embodiment, and culturally grounded pleasure practices. This installment expands beyond technique into the historical, neurological, and somatic dimensions of kink.

A central focus of the episode is the often-overlooked BIPOC history of kink and altered-state practices. Eve highlights African and Indigenous influences, including references to Yoruba traditions and the deity Oshun, to contextualize trance, ritual, and embodied pleasure as practices with deep cultural lineage that predate modern BDSM frameworks. The conversation emphasizes the importance of acknowledging these roots while engaging in contemporary kink spaces.

The episode also breaks down the neurochemistry of BDSM, exploring how subspace and domspace are shaped by a “chemical cocktail” of dopamine, endorphins, cortisol, and adrenaline. Eve explains how these altered states mirror experiences found in meditation, hypnosis, and somatic therapy, and why structured aftercare is essential to prevent emotional and physiological crashes such as sub-drop and dom-drop.

Another key theme is neurodiverse pleasure, with insight into how autistic and ADHD individuals may experience kink through sensory regulation, structure, predictability, and heightened body awareness. Eve discusses how kink can become a framework for identity exploration and nervous system regulation when practiced with consent and intention.

The episode also introduces various forms of consensual role exploration, including pet play (puppy, kitten, pony, cow dynamics), as well as sensory-based practices like foot play, anal play, and the use of masks and hoods as tools for identity, embodiment, and psychological transformation. These are framed through a lens of safety, hygiene, communication, and informed consent.

Throughout the episode, Eve reinforces a trauma-informed, sex-positive approach to kink, including clear guidance on negotiation, boundary-setting, and aftercare. Clinical concepts such as medical play are also introduced in a non-sexual, educational context to highlight the spectrum of therapeutic role-play possibilities.

This episode serves as both an educational guide and a cultural reflection on kink, offering listeners practical tools, historical context, and embodied practices for exploring pleasure safely and consciously.

In this insightful and education-focused episode, Eve sits down with Maeve McBride—a BDSM educator, intuitive top, sexological herbalist, and Executive Director of KinkFest—to explore the foundations of Intuitive Topping, consent-based power exchange, and embodied awareness within kink dynamics.

Drawing from teachings shared at DomCon and Maeve’s signature “Intuitive Topping” framework, this conversation breaks down what it really means to engage in BDSM with presence, communication, and responsibility. Rather than relying on assumptions or scripted dynamics, Maeve emphasizes intuitive topping as a skill built through observation, feedback, and real-time attunement.

The episode also highlights how kink is not always sexual, but can instead serve as a space for emotional release, embodiment, exploration, and connection.

A key focus of the conversation is how intuitive topping is not “psychic ability,” but a refined practice of reading subtle cues such as breath patterns, movement shifts, vocal responses, and body language. Maeve also discusses how neurodivergence can influence sensation, communication styles, and the way individuals express pleasure or discomfort.

The episode includes a real-time negotiation demonstration between Eve and Maeve, offering listeners a grounded example of how consent conversations, boundaries, and scene structure are established in practice.
