    Toe curling Spiritual Sex Series- Part 1- Why Isn't She Into It?
    Mar 6 2025

    Episode Summary

    In the first episode of the Toe Curling Spiritual Sex Series, the hosts dive deep into the role of emotions and vulnerability in sexual intimacy. They debunk common myths that both men and women have been told about suppressing emotions during sex and reveal how true sexual alchemy emerges when emotions are embraced rather than repressed. The conversation explores how the masculine can welcome the feminine’s full emotional expression, while the feminine learns to trust the masculine’s presence. Through personal stories and intimate experiences, they demonstrate how emotional honesty in lovemaking can lead to deeper intimacy, profound healing, and "life-activating orgasms." Listeners are encouraged to cultivate sexual alchemy by embracing the full spectrum of emotions, creating a space of surrender, pleasure, and connection in their relationships.
