Explore the intersectional qualities of pleasure, presence and embodiment in this rich conversation with the luminous Vanessa Muradian (she/they), a sexologist, embodiment explorer, yoga facilitator and founder of womxn-focussed sexuality and wellness business Mia Muse.

When Vanessa launched Mia Muse 10 years ago she was filling what she saw as a crucial gap in the market – sex-positivity that was neither far-out nor tacky. Today that offering has expanded to workshops, sensual yoga and sexual education to support womxn on their journey towards intimacy, eroticism and pleasure.

 This episode explores:

• The relationship between masculine and feminine qualities (or yang and yin, shiva and shakti, or active and receptive) within us and our wider world
• Cultivating and elevating your erotic identity
• Knowing your pleasure deep listening to your body’s needs
• How sensuality has been sexualised, and expanding it to a much broader experience of daily life through our senses
• Unlearning and relearning (redefining) our relationship with sensuality and unravelling inherited or cultural beliefs

It’s a full and deep (and sometimes sticky) conversation and I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did.
