Pleasure Beyond Orgasm with Sexuality Do...

Danielle Bezalel, MPH: Sex Educator | Pleasure Expert | Rom-Com Critic
About this episode

Pleasure is so much more than orgasm. Don’t believe us? In this re-release, DB dives into all things sensuality with Sexuality Doula Ev’Yan Whitney, author of Sensual Self. They unpack the grip of purity culture, talk body reconnection, and offer real-world tips for bringing more pleasure into your life—yes, even outside the bedroom.

Still untangling your sexuality from the grip of the patriarchy? (Same.) This one’s for you.

GUEST DETAILS:
Ev'Yan is a sexuality doula®, author, facilitator, and sensualist, and for the last 10+ years they've had an insatiable curiosity about their sexuality, sensuality, and body, and the ways they need to heal in order to take up space within the expression of those things.
