Masterbators - For The Love of Sex

Another week, another amazing guest! This week I had a chat with burlesque performer into the dark side, Aine Oniel aka Curly Chaos, for an exciting chat about everything from figuring our masturbation, to first orgasms, finding your sex and communication what you want and owning your kink. I have so many more questions, so this will not be the last time you hear Aine on the podcast!

This week I had the pleasure to chat with artist, interaction designer and self proclaimed pseudopoet Jay Whitehead. She shared her story with me, how she dealt with battling leukemia as a child, finding strength in art and how it helped her through the darkest times and the importance of "fuck it moments". Truly one of the most honest and inspiring conversations I've ever had.

If you'd like to check out some of her art, you can find her in Instagram @J.whiteheadintdesarts and @s_cattered
