Episode notes

It's important that we talk a little bit about how we can establish and make sure that we are constantly checking in on consent because that is a big part of really good sex. And it's, this is the hardest thing for us humans to do, but it is very important to put your ego aside. Somebody not enjoying something does not mean that you are doing something wrong. It just means that you need to readjust now and try something different. This is about co creating an experience together.

Sex is a normal part of human life, but it can also get complicated–whether you’re having it or not! The way we approach, think, and engage with our sexuality varies widely our culture, community, identity, and more. But one thing we can all strive for is healthy and safe sex. Siphumeze Khundayi and Tiffany Mugo are two sex educators and the co-founders of HOLAAfrica (HOLAA!) a Pan-Africanist digital platform that focuses on creating spaces that deal with safe sex and pleasure. Today they share insights on the kinds of mental and emotional tools we can turn to in order to have great sex, why it’s ok to take small steps on your sexual journey, and why it’s important to take ownership of your pleasure.
