What’s New: September 2024
I have some personal news: I am officially starting my sex therapy training at the end of this month! I'm already a Level 3 trainee therapist, and I'll be doing the CICS Foundation Certificate in Counselling Skills and Practice before progressing onto the Diploma in Clinical Sexology and Relationship Therapy. In a few years' time, I'll be able to offer therapy on top of my existing peer support service to better serve the needs of the queer and non-monogamous community, especially those who are multiply marginalised like myself.
Whether you're having a brat summer or demure summer, I've got a ton of non-monogamy content just for you!
NEW WORKSHOPS
I did a talk titled 'Threesomes: Communication, Consent and Embracing Alternative Sexuality' at We Out Here Festival, which was an expanded, new-and-improved version of the threesomes workshop I did at Glastonbury Festival, which all patrons can watch for free. This one includes extra info on bisexuality, unicorn hunting, managing jealousy and more! It's now available for download, and patrons get 20% off.
Additionally, I collaborated with Alice Lovegood of the Better Sex Blog for a workshop on play party etiquette - dos, don'ts, sexy stories and so much more!
And finally, I spoke at Bi Pride again this year, at not one, but TWO events! I was a panellist on their Bisexual Education panel, and also moderated Unified Voices, a panel on bisexuality and disability. You can watch the panels for free on the Bi Pride YouTube channel.
UPCOMING EVENTS
You heard it here first - I'm doing more workshops later in the year! I'll be collaborating with some of your favourite polyamory creators to bring you more educational content on specific focused topics, so watch this space.
RECENT HIGHLIGHTS
My most popular video this month was 'My Sex Spreadsheet Changed How I View Pleasure', where I share what my sex spreadsheet looks like, what I've learnt from it, and my top tips on experiencing more pleasure. My relationship to sex and sexuality has changed so much over the years, and I'm curious to see whether you resonate with any of the observations I've made!
