Sensual Self with Ev'Yan Whitney

*Note: This episode was done during the era when this podcast used to be called The Sexually Liberated Woman.

A call to arms to slow the f— down. In this one, Ev'Yan shares a simple practice of sensual embodiment that she gives her clients (and uses herself) when she's too much in her head and not in her body. Sensuality is a huge and important part of sexuality. We cannot be sexually liberated if we don’t have a mindful relationship with our sensual bodies.

Ev'Yan also chats about her recent trip to NYC where she challenged and dismantled some seriously massive fears and limiting beliefs (and she's really damn proud of herself).

Ev'Yan has a conversation with Dalychia and Rafaella, the radical babes behind Afrosexology.com. They do incredible and work around educating, liberating, and healing black sexuality by creating spaces for black women and femmes to find sexual pleasure and erotic joy. The three of them talk about using pleasure as an act of resistance and the importance of black women prioritizing feeling good, especially during times when we are fighting anti-blackness and racism constantly.

Other things they discussed: rejecting white supremacy and respectability politics; a practice of pleasure for weary, traumatized, microaggressed black women/femmes; celebrating black sexuality through music; using masturbation and orgasm to remind you that your life matters; and what white people can do to help liberate black sexuality.

Before you use a yoni egg, listen to this. In this one, Ev'Yan chats with her friend, Danielle Cornelius (daniellecornelius.com), a chiropractor and holistic pelvic care practitioner, who specializes in the health and healing of the pelvis. They talk all about the importance of taking care of this part of the body and how its wellness is an important part of sexual pleasure and liberation. Danielle also educates us about yoni eggs and why you should think twice before using one (spoiler: you're probably using it wrong).

Other things they discuss: demystifying and desexualizing the vagina; kegels; releasing tension (and trauma) from the vagina via internal massage; and how to become more aware of this part of the body that's been historically dishonored.

In celebration of Pride month, Ev'Yan takes you on an intimate journey through her messy, confusing, dramatic queer identity origin story—from her very first girl crush to how her religious family reacted to her coming out to how she expresses her queer identity while being married to a man.

She speaks vulnerably about the myths and fears that kept her from exploring her sexuality for so long and the things she still struggles with today in ID-ing as a queer woman, like the fact she feels she has to come out again and again.

This one's filled with stories and encouragement for other not-straight babes who want to liberate their sexuality. And stick around til the end for her shout-outs, some of which may or may not be said with shade.

Ev'Yan has an open and vulnerable conversation with Tasha, a client she worked with and helped come from out of the clutches of sexual shame and into a "give no fucks" kind of sexual expression. Tasha shares how she went from sex being this traumatic, serious thing for her to reclaiming her laughter and seeing sex as play. She also gets really candid about her personal story as a survivor and how it is that her sexual trauma no longer swallows her anymore.

Other things they talked about: Sexual liberation on heels of the #MeToo movement; when (and how) Tasha knew she needed help to heal her sexuality; how she reconciled with her "promiscuous" past; and the kind of sex she's having now.
