In this episode Evie and Axel discuss roleplay and the role it plays in their relationship and their work as escorts. They look at what roleplay can mean beyond the surface level, and why for both of them specific experiences have been connected to healing rather than just sexual variety.

Evie shares what it meant to finally feel safe enough to access a more vulnerable part of herself that she had kept protected for a long time. Axel reflects on his early sexual experiences in Sweden and what it was like to revisit that time through roleplay with Evie. They also share what each of them wants to explore next.

TOPICS

• Why fear of judgment or ridicule stops most people from ever asking a partner for roleplay in the first place
• What Evie had kept protected for years in sexual contexts, and what it took for her to offer it to someone
• What Axel was trying to reconnect with when Evie put on the blonde wig and changed her whole presence
• How intuition works in offering someone an experience they need without having to script it in advance
• What the difference is between surface-level roleplay and the kind that becomes something more significant
• What Evie and Axel are each looking to explore next

QUOTES

• Evie: "I've found it incredibly edgy and there was a lot of shame, or discomfort attached to role play."
• Axel: "For me, the fear of being ridiculed for the sort of thing I would ask for from my partner would've stopped me from even exploring that."
• Evie: "It's like going back and rewriting the script, re-experiencing it — and that is a healing experience."
• Axel: "I remember afterwards being filled with love and gratitude. You gave me that — it was a gift from you, an offering."
• Evie: "A lot of role play does tap into our deeper selves and allows us to go back and reconnect, remind ourselves that we are worthy, we are capable, we are safe — whatever the message is that we need."
