Sexual confidence is a feeling state that so many of us want more of, but it can feel elusive or out of reach to attain. How do we build sexual confidence? What does sexual confidence look and feel like – for you specifically?



In this podcast episode we tackle the elusive question of gaining sexual confidence – and why we might want to always be turning towards vulnerability and awkwardness in order to build new arenas of confidence and growth.

Here’s how to wake up your mouth as a site of erotic pleasure, power and expression. In this episode we share the first step of oral eroticization – becoming aware of your mouth as a place of enjoyment, on your own terms, and doubling down on the pleasure you experience from your own mouth.

In this podcast episode, Chris and Charlotte, the Pleasure Mechanics, invite us to embrace the concept of oral eroticization as a key ingredient in enhancing our sexual experiences. This episode tackles a crucial element missing from the conversation around oral sex – the eroticization of our mouths. By bringing awareness to our own mouths as potent zones of sensation and pleasure, we open the door to a world of new discoveries about ourselves and our desires.



The process of oral eroticization is a deeply personal and incremental one. It requires us to be present and attentive to our own pleasures and preferences, allowing ourselves the space to explore what brings us joy and what resonates with our sensual selves. By engaging in self-oral eroticization practices, we can gradually awaken our mouths to a heightened state of sensitivity and pleasure.



If you’re intrigued by the idea of delving deeper into the world of oral eroticization, the Pleasure Mechanics offer a brand new course designed to guide you on this transformative journey. Explore at your own pace in the Oral Mastery course or join the group coaching cohort for personalized support and community connection as you master the art of oral eroticism.

Shame is one of the most common sexual struggles. Shame is a social experience of feeling unworthy, unlovable, not belonging or lesser than. Shame tells us we have to hide parts of ourselves to fit in, get along or avoid rejection. Shame tells us we are broken, sinful, gross or otherwise unworthy of belonging.



Shame tells us if we were to be truly ourselves, we wouldn’t belong. Shame lies to us, and holds us all hostage in an invisible web-like grip of cultural myth and misinformation.



While not all shame is sexual shame, almost all of us struggle with some form of sexual shame – from body shame to faith-based shame, from kink shame to genital shame, almost everyone holds some form of shame around their sexuality.



A goal of shame resilience is to help those who feel shame feel empathy, connection, power, and freedom instead, emotions that can be considered the opposite of shame.
