Episode #17 - How to Speak Up About Desire's, Consent and the Art of Initiating Safer Sex

August 18, 2023 • Eve Milford • Season 1 • Episode 17

Please note that the information, opinions, and recommendations presented in this Podcast are for general information only. Trigger warning - because I speak about consent in this episode it may trigger some, I do not go into any detail of crossed consent or boundaries.

In this episode, I dive into the crucial world of consent in sex and the art of initiating safer, more respectful encounters and how to speak up about what you desire. My focus is on creating a secure and enthusiastic environment where all parties involved can give their consent and know that they can also revisit this throughout their experiences.

Through raw honesty, I'll explore the consent and how to attain it.

I talk about:

Feeling consent in the body
How consent and safety helps to break free from numbness
How to keep having ongoing conversations and active consent
How initiating safer sexual experiences can bring healthy and happy experiences!

This is all about creating a beautiful space, making the conversations meaningful, joyful and open!! By keeping it honest, safe, and keeping consent at the forefront of any sexual experience.

Additional resource: I highly recommend looking at Betty Martin's Wheel of Consent for a detailed understanding of consent.
