In this Spicy Special, psychotherapist and coach Tamara Driskell, LMHC shares powerful insights into the world of sexual healing, kink, and emotional safety. With years of experience working across the spectrum of non-monogamy, BDSM, trauma recovery, and sex work advocacy, Tamara explains how power exchange can be a deeply therapeutic experience.
She breaks down what the term BDSM really means, how cultural shame impacts sexual expression, and why open, honest communication is essential for exploring your desires safely. Plus, we dive into the rise of the "Mommy Dommy" dynamic and how certain fantasies and kinks become more popular during times of social change. Whether you’re curious, cautious, or craving connection — this conversation will expand your understanding of intimacy and healing.
