And the sex that I have after 104 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 3: a play party is one of the best experiences, like 105 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 3: not at the player afterwards with my girlfriend, it's fire. 106 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 3: So it's like very empowering for me.

We've been talking about our journey to freedom 117 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: for six years with our community, and so it's like 118 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 1: a long term for play to finally get to the place. 119 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people talk about shit, but 120 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: no one has the opportunity to indulge and experience it. 121 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I feel super proud that you've given 122 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: us the confidence to step into this space and to 123 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: include our community in this way, because I talked to 124 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: a lot of people the other night, and there are 125 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: people who are there alone, women who are there alone, 126 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: women who are there for the first time. I just 127 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: got a text from someone like I had my first threesome. 128 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: It was great, you know. And to be able to 129 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: be like a facilitate, a facilitator to create this space 130 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: is super special. And I think that, like the best 131 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: example I can give is, like, you know, when you 132 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: go to a like a music festival, and most people 133 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: are like hi and happy, and you're just welcoming to 134 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: strangers and you're hugging strangers and people are helping each 135 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: other out because there's just like a primary uh, like 136 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: everybody's there for one thing, right, the exchange of music, 137 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: the energetic exchange of like openness, like no one's there 138 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: on malice because we're going to go party and be 139 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: in like be in community. And I think the sex 140 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: party is the same thing in a smaller space because 141 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: it's not necessarily about just sex, but it's about freedom 142 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: to explore. Yes's freedom to explore knows and like you 143 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: said in the consent speech, which I thought was super important, 144 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: and your consense speech is always the bomb, but that 145 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: black people haven't had agency over their bodies until recently. 146 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: So it's a very sensitive space. But it's also just 147 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: sacred to be able to indulge in that together as 148 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: a community. And so I just feel like it's medicine. 149 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 7: I would say confidence is one of the things that 150 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 7: this space has given me, just confidence in. 151 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 6: Just being my wildest self. 152 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 7: Like it creates this, like she said, a container of 153 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 7: this this energy that has allowed me to be a 154 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 7: performer if I feel like it, I can. Like you said, 155 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 7: I remember there was a moment for the DJ but 156 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 7: I was like, am I'm a fucking burlesque answer bitch, 157 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 7: Like I didn't know, but here I am. And it 158 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 7: just gives me a confidence to just explore maybe parts 159 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 7: of myself that maybe I've only given myself permission to 160 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 7: explore alone in my room. And also just like I 161 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 7: was in the middle of the floor dancing and doing 162 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 7: my thing, and no one interrupted me. No one came 163 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 7: and tried to like take me out of it, try 164 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 7: to impose their whatever they wanted to do and participate 165 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 7: with me.

And I really enjoyed. 208 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 5: I really enjoyed the fact that people did give you 209 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 5: guys your space.

This is like this 218 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 5: is it? 219 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 3: This is it about be a hype of ship. And 220 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 3: one of the things that was a show to me, 221 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 3: it didn't seem coming, but I love the introduction of 222 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 3: it was Yah came up with a goddess room, which 223 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 3: is one of my favorite fucking ideas because if you 224 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 3: have a bunch of women in a room just like 225 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 3: being pleased, Like what else could you ask for at 226 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 3: a play party? But I'll let y'all tell it. What 227 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: was with this goddess room like activation. 228 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: Well, we forgot to tell people at New York this 229 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: other day, which was disappointing. I was too busy getting soup. 230 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: But when we did do it in La and I 231 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 1: want to do it again, I had this brilliant idea. 232 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: Me and Eric I always talk about like goddess experiences 233 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: and being served by the masculine, just being served in general, 234 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: even by the feminine. I think women are not really 235 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: used to being served like they should be. We're often 236 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: used to giving and feel like our worth is tied 237 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: to our giving, especially in sexual spaces. And so it's 238 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: like a kind of a reclamation of becoming comfortable with 239 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: being served and being goddesses and like kind of taking 240 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: back a rightful place like Mufassa. But I felt like 241 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: just the experiences that me and my friend have been 242 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: able to cultivate because we're innovative and we are we've 243 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 1: been really well seasoned into asking for what we want, 244 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: kind of asking our tribe to being able to indulge 245 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 1: in that, and even at the retreats, this is like 246 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,719 Speaker 1: a part of that is like serving women. We go 247 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: there to serve the women that come because I think 248 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: women are not even used to being served by other 249 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: women platonically and an intimate space, you know. And I 250 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: think having the space to just be like, yeah, come 251 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: sit down in this non sex room and feed the 252 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: women fruits is something very basic and simple, but it 253 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: kind of repairs a relationship between men and women that 254 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: especially Black men and women that I don't think we've 255 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: had the are the opportunity to be able to non sexually. 256 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 6: Heal exchange, have in exchange with one another. 257 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: That's platonic but intimate and romantic in ways, but there's 258 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: no expectation of anything unless you so choose to in 259 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: a different room. So that was kind of the idea 260 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: behind that, And you know, I was surprised even in 261 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: LA like a lot of women came up. 262 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 4: I think it's dope. 263 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 5: Allowing yourself the space for people to do things for you. 264 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 4: I think it's really dope. 265 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 5: And I think one thing I've noticed, especially for moms, 266 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 5: you know, I think you guys spoken about it. 267 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 4: It's like you guys are always last. 268 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 5: And even in my family when I talk to the elders, 269 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 5: the old ideas and stuff and simple question like what 270 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 5: makes you happy?

And so 305 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 7: when you create a space of like evenness, which I 306 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 7: think that room that we have the goddess experience, and 307 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 7: it creates a space like everyone that enters this room 308 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 7: is a goddess. You know, it doesn't matter if you 309 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 7: are a mom of ten or never had a child 310 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 7: in your whole life. When you walk into this room, 311 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 7: you deserve respect and you deserve to be cared for. 312 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 7: And even the other day at the at at Susia, 313 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 7: I told someone was like, I would I really want 314 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 7: to come to one of your retreats, And I said 315 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 7: to her, I would love to take care of you, 316 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 7: and she just started crying and she's like, I've never 317 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 7: heard a woman say that to me, like you want 318 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 7: to take care of me? And I was like, yes, 319 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 7: I do. And so that even that God has experienced. 320 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 7: I think that the platonicness of it is so important 321 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 7: for women to be able to take care of one 322 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 7: another in that space.
