Jamie and Neil discuss the nature of god as the sadist in the sky which leads us into explorations of power, privilege and exploring our choice vs vulnerability . We sit in some challenging questions about rescuing, victim and perpetrator narratives. As always we try to be in the question instead of knowing all the answers and we would love to hear your feedback.

Jamie and Neil discussed personal relationships and our feelings of unworthiness. When we reflect on our own and others' flaws can we reveal and play with our shadow aspects? How can we use games and kink to make this fun, arousing and connecting?

We discuss the impact of childhood experiences and parental influences on developing beliefs about oneself. If we are able to focus on the positive aspects of trauma can it lead to personal growth, connection and even juiciness!?
