In today’s episode of The Better Sex Podcast, we will be having conversations with Eirikah Delaunay, a writer, Witch, and sexual rebel who identifies as a white, polyamorous, bisexual, cisgender woman, Dominant-leaning Switch, and sadomasochist. She is also the mother of two amazing adult children, an executive-level academic professional, and previously a monogamous wife of 20 years. Both/and is her magic word.

 

 

The founder of Desire Alchemy, she is a somatic sex+relationship coach and initiated priestess who helps people use embodiment, storytelling, and ritual to transform the energy of their own unique desire into fuel for lives of connection and passion. Her mission is to re-ignite and strengthen stale relationships (including the relationship with self) by cultivating true authenticity, practical skills, devotion, and delight. 

 

In her pursuit of deeper connection through language and embodiment, she earned an MFA in Creative Writing, and trained as a sex+relationship coach at the Somatica InstituteTM. She has had the joy of more than a decade of connection, education, and service in the Seattle sex-positive community, where she has served as a “Tasting Top” and guest educator and facilitator on topics ranging from hands-on skills, D/s dynamics, sacred sexuality, and strategies for maintaining intimacy and connection in long-distance relationships. She currently serves on the Board of the Center for Sex-Positive Culture in Seattle.

 

Her erotic writing appeared in the Seattle Erotic Arts Festival Literary Anthology in 2018-2020 and 2022. Her chapter “Light Your Fire: Ecstatic Embodiment to Fuel Your Dreams” was featured in the Amazon #1 bestseller, Sacred Medicine: Mystical Practices for Ecstatic Living, and her chapter “Turn Yourself On: Embodiment Practices to Jump Start Your Day” was featured in the Amazon #1 bestseller, The Ultimate Guide to Self-Healing Volume 5.

She provides individual, partnered, and group coaching for people curious and excited about using effective communication, magic, sexuality, kink, and/or power exchange relationships as vehicles for personal growth and bliss.
