We thought it was high time we did an episode with just us, talking about what has been happening in our world! And a lot has happened since we did our last catch up episode, let me tell you.

Cindra’s Clay & Rose event was a success, in collaboration with Amy from Deeper Blue Ceramics. Their unique take on paint and sip went so well with the ceramic dildos that Amy creates. The women that came had great fun getting creative, chatting about pleasure and celebrating their efforts with a few glasses of vino. Luke was even able to join and weigh in on the convos about pleasure and sex, then we accidentally had a huge night!

We give an update on our Awaken Your Pleasure group program which we are just so proud of. All of the women in that space are thriving and it’s amazing to see the growth and transformation in there. Next one starts end of August if you’re keen to experience this magic.

Cancel Culture has come across us a little bit in the past month or so, we give our two cents on that of course, then move on to talking about stress and sex. More precisely, how the current ‘rona situation can have a direct impact on your intimacy. And from our experience, not in a good way.

If you do need support in your relationship to come back to intimacy, we have our twelve week Turn On program which we have just welcomed a new couple into! To say OMG yes to your pleasure, to more connected intimacy and better sex, jump into this container with us now.

We also cover our upcoming events, some exciting collaborations (find out more about Conscious Connections next week) AND we do our first review on the Cervix Serpent. You can get your very own squirt toy here - www.yonipleasurepalace.com/shop/the-cervix-serpent? ref=consciouscouples

BRETT IS BACK! Brett Christensen joins us for this epic chat about Shibari and BDSM. If you haven't already, head back to episode 87 and listen to our first episode with Brett which was all about Yoni Mapping!

We wanted to get Brett back again to go in depth on Shibari - What it is, why would you want to practice it and where to begin your journey to learn it. He talks about how he offers it and the therapeutic benefits you can achieve from it, as well as the ways you can use it in the bedroom (and outside too).

On this episode, we also get into one of our favourite things to explore, BDSM. We love Brett's BDSM tips, advice for beginner's and we share a bit of our experience around this too.

Even if these things aren't on your agenda, we encourage you to listen and open your mind to what could be, or what could be fun to fantasise about. We look forward to sharing our Shibari journey with our Patreon community!

Do go follow Brett @brett_chr on Insta and find him for online and in person sessions infinitemasculine.com Also stay tuned if you live in Newcastle or can get to Newcastle, he will be coming down for a workshop and some sessions later this year.

LOVED our chat with the gorgeous Kelli Tennant! Kelli is a podcast host of @thekellishow - juicy intersection of spiritual and sexual liberation, helping women break free from toxic lies and rules, as well as the CEO of @soulfireproductions

She is a boss BABE and we thoroughly enjoyed this explorative chat, diving into all things conscious relating, non-monogamy, sex toys, empowerment in the bedroom and so much more!

Kelli talks candidly about her current conscious relationship and what she has learnt on her journey to expanding the way she relates. She asks us some questions too about how our relationship works and our experiences, we talk about communication and the importance of transparency!

We talk about trying new things in the bedroom, empowering women to ask for what they want and how we have all grown through our conscious relating, also, how allowing things to be a little messy and honest is the way to a sustainable partnership.

This was such a fun chat, we went everywhere, shared lots of stories and laughs and we know you will get SO much out of this one. Whether you are in a relationship or single, there were some huge takeaways from this episode.

OMG we are that excited about this episode! The author of ‘Smart Girls Guide To Polyamory’ and co-host of the excellent podcast Multiamory joins us for a chat about all things poly and open relating.

We were lucky to catch the gorgeous Dedeker whilst she is in the country and enjoyed every minute of this juicy episode. We talk about our open relationship and about ethical non-monogamy quite a lot - You can check our previous episodes - However it was great to have an expert in this field on so we could dive in deeper.

In this episode, we talked about:

public opinion (judgement) about open relationships and polyamory

what monogamous folks can learn from poly relationships

why it’s useful to have unbiased support in relationships

Some of the highs and lows of open relating

How self awareness trumps even communication when it comes to relating

And so much more! We share some of our personal experiences as always and Dedeker provides us with plenty of solid advice, anecdotes and info about polyamory and open relating.

This episode is not just for ethical non-monogamous peeps! We encourage everyone to open your ears and minds and tune in to this episode, we actually talk a lot about monogamy so give it a whirl.

Dedeker shared these useful links with us too -

On this episode, we talk about one of our favourite things, YONIS! Otherwise known as vulvas, pussies and whatever else you would like to call them. Specifically, we are joined by the awesome Brett Christensen to talk about Yoni Mapping, something that Cindra has talked about on the podcast before and something that dramatically changed her world.

Brett is a Bodywork Practitioner, specifically practising Yoni Mapping/Massage as well as Therapeutic Shibari, de-armouring and emotional release (more on these on a future episode).

We talk about what Yoni Mapping is and how Brett came into this world from his background as a computer programmer. Brett talks so beautifully about how Yoni Mapping can be used to treat trauma and heal from abuse and disconnection that is so often experienced by women.

Cindra shares some of her experience with Yoni Mapping and how pivotal it has been in her journey of becoming liberated and sexually expressed and we talked about how important this work can be for the masculine too.

Brett shares some of his clients’ experiences as well and the incredible breakthroughs that can come about from this work.

Yoni Mapping is seriously life changing and we recommend this for ANYONE with a yoni!

We touch on Shibari briefly too, which we are excited to produce a whole episode about in the near future.

Find more on Brett on his Insta @brett_chr and on his website infinitemasculine.com

Our friend Lindsey Stillwell joins us on this juicy episode to talk all about pleasure, desires and being a sex doula.

We chatted to Lindsey about so many cool things, we actually can't wait for you to listen to this episode!

We loved our conversations about asking for what you want (in and out of the bedroom) and how expressing your needs is not personal. This is a really important conversation that everyone needs to hear and have.

We talked about desires and having an open mind about developing and expanding your connection with pleasure.

Lindsey shared her practice of self pleasure in public (which we love), we touched on being a parent and she shared about her amazing work as a s.ex doula.

SUCH an epic chat with an epic human!

We’re at it again!

Another cheeky solo episode with Luke and Cindra coming at ya. We wanted to take this opportunity to tell you a little bit more about what we offer and the incredible group program we ran earlier this year.

Ignite Your Intimacy was a lit six week experience for women to help them reconnect to their intimacy and build the confidence to share this with their partners. We worked with an incredible group of women who had fallen off the intimacy train and needed support to find their fire again.

On this episode, we share some of the women’s journeys and their biggest breakthroughs. It was an absolute honour to witness these amazing women and to see the huge shifts they made in just six weeks.

This program is now called Awaken Your Pleasure and we speak a little bit about how this came about and how this 2.0 version of our six week program has a sprinkle of magic added to make it even BETTER.

Awaken Your Pleasure is open now for enrolments and you can save $200 if you sign up before June 4. This is an online, intimate and super container that brings like-minded women together in a safe and supported space to come back to pleasure.

This episode is from community questions and for those who have expressed interest in knowing more about our private lives, lol!

It’s just us on this episode and we start by chatting about our recent experiences and events and what we have learnt and shared from these. Lots has been going on for us, especially if we compare this to where we were when we recorded our first ever open relationship episode, way back on number 14.

Since then, we have done non-monogamy episodes with our friend Vixen Riot (33) and Ariella Serur (76) and thought it was time that we circled back and prepared to share about where our open relating is at now, how it has changed and the tools that have worked for us.

Please know - This is simply our experience! We dive straight in on this one, so I recommend you to listen to those previous episodes if you are new to open relating content.

We talk about our rules and boundaries, how transparency is king for us and how we are open about most aspects of our relationship and what happens outside of it.

We discuss recent challenges and the growth that has emerged from them, how our relationship is pretty fluid and that we check in all the time to ensure that both of us (and our other partners) are content and onboard with where things are at.

Opening our relationship and really leaning into this of late has made us realise how important this dynamic is in the success and sustainability of our marriage. We have been loving the new experiences and people we have been bringing into our world and grateful for the chance to explore and play, expanding our intimacy beyond what we thought would be possible.

If you have any questions about our relationship, please do reach out via email and we can answer them on the next episode - [email protected]

Let’s keep this masculine honouring theme running for another episode!

We have been loving diving into our chats with men we love, about all things masculinity and this episode is no exception.

Our friend Jacob Weatherley joined Luke recently for a chat about generational male trauma, creating a dense nervous system for men to connect with their intuition and how to experience and process emotions as a man (and hold space for others in their feeling body too).

We talk about toxic masculinity and the rise of the divine feminine, giving the opportunity for all humans to move toward wholeness. This is especially for those in their wounded masculine, moving toward healing “he who has harmed”.

We speak on Jacob’s experience with taking men through his container, Journey Of Strength and common obstacles and objections he finds men come up against on the journey to consciousness.

Jacob is a super relatable and open human who is doing some great work. You can find all of his wisdom over on IG @jacobweatherley and access his podcast and programs via the link in his bio.
