Dom Sub Devotion

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the most avoided and most essential parts of any real power exchange dynamic: disagreement.   Most people think that if a D/s relationship is strong enough, aligned enough, or deeply polarized enough, there shouldn’t be any disagreement. But that belief is exactly what causes most dynamics to slowly collapse under the weight of silence, resentment, or performance.   The big point in this episode is this:  Disagreement isn’t failure, it’s feedback.    And how you handle it will define whether your dynamic works over the long run, or eventually collapses.   In this episode, I share how Dawn and I have navigated this exact terrain in our 24/7 D/s marriage.    This is something that my wife and submissive, Dawn, and I have navigated over the last 6+ years in a 24/7 D/s dynamic. And we’ve learned that disagreement, when handled with integrity, doesn’t weaken the dynamic—it strengthens it.   Here’s what I get into:  • Why real Authority doesn’t fear resistance—it’s built to hold it  • What happens when you suppress your submissive’s truth instead of integrating it  • How we use our Realignment Protocol to repair conflict without collapsing polarity  • The hidden cost of fake agreement and performance-based submission  • What a Dominant needs to do in the moment she says “no”  • And how structure either becomes a prison, or the very thing that allows her to melt     I also get personal about how I used to handle these moments—reactively, with force or logic—and how everything changed when I learned to pause, listen to the signal underneath Dawn’s voice, and lead from presence rather than control.   Whether you’re deep into a 24/7 dynamic or just beginning to play with power exchange, this episode will give you the tools to stop fearing tension and start using it to strengthen your connection, your sex, and your trust.   ⸻   Reflection questions to take into your relationship:   • What helps you feel safest to speak your truth, even when it’s hard?   • What helps you trust your partner to lead or follow, especially in moments of disagreement?    ⸻   Thanks for listening and being part of this movement to bring humanity and truth into Dominance and submission. If this episode hit home, leave a review, share it with a partner, or head to infinitedevotion.com to go deeper.   And remember: The strongest dynamics aren’t the ones with the least tension. They’re the ones with the most trust.  ~~~   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

Episode 90 — Why Women Don’t Find Dominant Masculine Men  This is the sister episode to Episode 88 (“Why Submissives Resist”). But this time, it’s not for the men—it’s for you, the women who messaged me by the hundreds after that episode. Women who cried, who remembered, who finally felt seen. Women who said: “This is what I’ve been craving.”  In this episode, I’m speaking directly to you. You say you want a Dominant man. You ache to surrender. You long to be led. But do you actually want to let go of control? Do you know the difference between craving submission and living it? This episode is not here to coddle you. It’s here to hold up the mirror—to call you back to yourself, and to the sacred edge where true submission begins. We’ll talk about projection, ego traps, feminine control patterns, somatic trust, and the death of performance-based submission. I’ll show you what it really takes to embody a life of devotion—and why that Dominant man you long for can’t lead you until you actually choose to follow.   This one is raw, deep, and likely confronting. But if you let it in, it could change everything.   ⸻   💡 Key Themes Covered:   • Why longing is not the same as readiness  • How projection and blame block real surrender  • The subtle ways women unconsciously kill leadership  • The difference between safety and comfort  • Why trust begins in your own nervous system—not in his behavior  • The trap of performing submission vs. living it  • How to turn daily moments into acts of devotion  • Why the right man won’t fight you for the lead  • The terrifying and liberating truth of being reshaped by love  • How true submission starts as a practice, not a personality   ⸻   🔥 Memorable Lines:    “Crying over what you don’t have doesn’t make you ready for it.”   “You’re not submissive because you want a strong man. You’re submissive when you’re willing to meet your edge and stay open anyway.”   “Don’t ask for a dominant man to lead you if what you really mean is: lead me only in the ways I like.”   “You don’t become submissive by getting a collar. You become submissive the moment you choose to live without control.”   “Real submission isn’t obedience. It’s openness.” ~~~   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

 Episode 89 – Let Go of the Game: Healing Without Effort with Sven Loss    In this illuminating and soul-stirring conversation, Andrew welcomes Sven Loss—a widely respected teacher of inner freedom and truth—to explore a radical idea:   What if healing doesn’t require years of work? What if transformation is instant—if you stop trying?   This episode is a deep dive into the paradox of healing, identity, and transformation within the context of polarity, power exchange, and intimate relationships. Andrew and Sven both share their stories of awakening—not through slow self-improvement, but through moments of surrender that changed everything.   Together, they dismantle the illusion that “working on yourself” leads to wholeness and instead reveal:  • Why the effort to let go is actually a form of holding on   • How your addiction to fixing yourself is the very thing keeping you stuck  • Why deep healing often begins the moment you stop performing and trying  • How your relationship patterns are shaped by early life conditioning—and how to break the cycle  • The real reason most people don’t know what they want (and why that’s okay)  • How masculine and feminine embodiment naturally emerge when you stop pretending  • The truth about safety, leadership, and freedom inside power exchange relationships  • Why dominance begins with surrendering to truth—not performing control   This episode is especially powerful for couples navigating a D/s dynamic, polarity work, or deep inner work in partnership. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the loop of trying to heal, be more masculine or feminine, or “get it right,” this episode will give you permission to stop… and just be.   🌀 Featured Guest:  Sven Loss is a Relationship and Transformation Coach. He helps people break free from subconscious patterns that drive their behaviour and how they show up in relationships and life. His work guides clients toward self-realisation, healthy relationship dynamics and a general sense of peace with their lives and themselves.   🖤 Links & Resources:  → Learn more at infinitedevotion.com → Follow Andrew & Dawn on Instagram: @_infinitedevotion → Connect with Sven on Instagram: @sven.loss → Connect with Sven on Instagram: https://svenloss.com     📌 If this episode spoke to you, share it with someone who’s ready to stop trying and start living.  ~~~   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

Discover how a submissive's resistance can signal areas for growth in a dominant partner. The dynamic of dominance and submission is examined, revealing that true leadership requires self-confidence and emotional stability. Learn the difference between controlling and containing, and why a dominant's presence can inspire surrender. The discussion emphasizes accountability and personal development as key to building trust and safety in relationships. Ultimately, dominance is portrayed as a deep commitment rather than a mere vibe.

In this special Q&A episode, Andrew answers real, raw, and vulnerable questions submitted by submissive women from around the world. These are not theoretical musings—they’re lived experiences. Stories of longing, pain, fear, and devotion from women navigating the tension between their deepest cravings and the reality of their relationships.   This episode is for everyone—especially Dominant men.   Because behind every question is a woman trying to surrender… but finding nowhere safe to land. A woman who wants to obey, to offer herself, to be reshaped… but is met with comparison, neglect, shutdown, or confusion. Andrew shares both practical insights and piercing truth about what it really means to live this lifestyle—and why so many women feel heartbroken in their attempts to do so.   Topics include:  • How to live a D/s dynamic with kids or family at home  • Navigating kink and submission inside busy or dominant careers  • What to do when your man says he wants to lead… but doesn’t  • Dealing with shutdown, trauma, comparison, and inconsistency from a Dom  • How a woman’s pain and truth can shape a man—not destroy him  • Whether expressing deep emotions is disrespectful  • The fine line between surrender and self-abandonment  • What to do when it’s time to walk away   And so much more.   This episode is as much a mirror as it is a guide. It is a call to women to keep feeling, keep expressing, and never submit to what is not worthy. And it is a challenge to men: If you want her to submit, be a man she can safely surrender to.    ⸻   🔗 Mentioned in this episode:   • Becoming a Dominant Man course  • Free “Unshakeable” email series for Dominant men   💬 Got a question for the next Q&A episode (for Dominants)?

Discover how true dominance begins as an internal state, reshaping your relationship with yourself and others.

Explore the connection between self-respect and sexual authority, and why setting emotional boundaries is key to preventing burnout.

In this raw, revealing, and richly layered conversation, Andrew welcomes writer, speaker, and feminine guide Ginger Kern to the Dom Sub Devotion podcast. What unfolds is not just a dialogue—but a masterclass in embodied polarity, truth, desire, and what it really takes to create sacred union. Together, they dive into:  • The difference between performative desire and embodied eros  • Why truth—not integrity—is the highest value in a power exchange relationship  • How men and women both must submit to something greater to be truly free  • The journey of a woman learning to trust her voice, her body, and her desires  • What it feels like to be in the presence of a man who is aligned with truth  • The trap of the “Hungry Mind” and why embodiment—not more knowledge—is the portal to change  • Conditional vs. unconditional love in the context of devotion, polarity, and human relationship  • The erotic, energetic, and existential responsibility of being fully in your human experience   Ginger brings nuance, reverence, and fierce clarity to what it means to be a vessel for life, love, and truth. Andrew challenges listeners—especially men—to claim their full power not through force, but through unwavering alignment.   This episode is for you if:   → You’re tired of trying to “do” submission or Dominance and want to live it → You’ve felt the call to union—but haven’t known how to embody it → You crave truth, depth, and integrity in love, sex, and self-leadership → You’re ready to go beyond the surface and hear what devotion actually demands   ⸻   Ginger Kern is a writer, mentor, and guide for women on the path of the devotional feminine.

 After last week’s conversation with my friend Christina (@solarfemininearts) about her pulling back from her work to fully drop into being a wife and mother, I realized it was time to share what’s been happening behind the scenes in my own marriage—and what’s evolved for us since Dawn pulled back from the podcast and Infinite Devotion a few months ago.    This is the full update on our dynamic—what’s shifted, how it’s evolved, and why it’s never been hotter, deeper, or more alive than it is right now.   Dawn had a moment of truth at the beginning of the year where she knew—without a doubt—that she needed to step away from our business and this podcast. It didn’t make logical sense, and part of both of us resisted it. But I chose to lead us through it. And what it’s created in our lives, our marriage, and especially our D/s dynamic… is almost indescribable.   In this episode, I break down exactly how her surrender has deepened, how I’ve had to grow as her Dominant, and why I had to stop softening around her ego and start holding the standard without apology.   I also open up—publicly, for the first time—about how much our sexual dynamic has exploded. Kink, obedience, ownership, and submission are now more central to how we live. We haven’t shared much about the sexual and kink side of our dynamic for good reason, but avoiding that truth going forward would mean hiding the most alive and real parts of our relationship.   If you’ve followed us because of the emotional depth, the love, the realness—we’re still here for that. But we’re also done leaving out the erotic truth at the heart of it all. This is the life we’re living. And it’s time to let you in.   ⸻   Inside This Episode, I Share:   • Why Dawn stepped away from Infinite Devotion—and what that made possible  • How over-analyzing our relationship started killing our polarity  • The exact shifts I made in my leadership to meet her deeper submission  • How I stopped backing down when her resistance showed up  • Why her resistance was often a mirror of my own hesitation  • What it means to raise the standard instead of lower it  • How kink and obedience have taken over our sex life—in the best way  • Why I’m done hiding how erotic our marriage has become  • And why the results of living this way are showing up everywhere: more love, more fun, more money, more freedom   ⸻   02:08 Dawn's Decision to Step Back 03:01 Impact on Relationship and Dynamic 04:56 Living the Dynamic More Authentically 07:41 Changes in the Podcast and Business 13:29 Traveling and New Adventures 14:36 Growth in Dominance and Submission 20:49 Embracing the Sexual Side of the Dynamic 24:52 Facing Resistance and Raising Standards 34:16 Public Perception and Social Media Growth 42:57 Concluding Thoughts and Future Plans   ⸻   Connect with Us:   • Follow Andrew and Dawn on Instagram: @_infinitedevotion  • Learn more at infinitedevotion.com   If You Loved This Episode:   • Share it with a friend who needs to hear this message.  • Leave a 5-star review and tell us what landed for you.  • Tag us on Instagram and share your favorite moment!   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

In this deeply vulnerable and powerful episode of Dom Sub Devotion, Andrew sits down with longtime friend Christina McBoyle (known on Instagram as @solar.feminine.arts), to explore the humbling, life-altering journey she has been walking through marriage, motherhood, and identity death. Christina shares intimately about her evolution from being a widely recognized feminine embodiment teacher to being initiated into living her teachings on an entirely new level. After marrying her husband Ryan within six weeks of meeting, becoming pregnant shortly after, and moving through the intense transformations of wifehood and motherhood, Christina realized that the very identity as a teacher and healer that had once empowered her was now standing in the way of the deeper love and union she craved.   This conversation covers:  • How Christina’s years of teaching feminine embodiment eventually revealed hidden blind spots in her own life  • The moment she realized her work was blocking her capacity to fully surrender in marriage  • The subtle ways purpose and service can become hidden ego attachments for women  • The painful but essential process of descending into deeper truth and authenticity  • What it really feels like to give up old identities and allow love, devotion, and motherhood to fully reshape you  • A raw discussion about women, work, purpose, survival mechanisms, and letting go  • Why true union requires ego death—and how that’s more liberating than terrifying  • Practical wisdom for women feeling the tension between their careers and their deepest relational desires   This is a rare, real, unscripted conversation between two people devoted to living what they teach—not performing it. If you are a woman navigating the gap between what you know and what you live, or if you’re longing for a deeper experience of love, union, and surrender, this episode will speak straight to your soul.   ⸻   Guest:    Christina McBoyle  Instagram: @solar.feminine.arts ⸻   Connect with Us:   • Follow Andrew and Dawn on Instagram: @_infinitedevotion  • Learn more at infinitedevotion.com   If You Loved This Episode:   • Share it with a friend who needs to hear this message.  • Leave a 5-star review and tell us what landed for you.  • Tag us on Instagram and share your favorite moment!   Becoming a Dominant Man is Andrew's flagship course for Dominant Men.

This episode is for the woman who’s tired of performing. Tired of feeling stuck in her head. Tired of trying to be the right kind of woman—when what she really wants is to be all of herself.   If you’ve ever felt the war inside between being soft and being powerful… Between being seen and staying safe… Between following your impulse and following the rules… This conversation will wake you up.   I sit down with the fiercely embodied Madelyn Moon—author, teacher, and artist of love—for a raw, electrifying, and liberating exploration of what it means to fully express. Not just with your voice, but with your whole body, your shadow, your heart, your pleasure, your rage. Madelyn shares how she guides women into deep energetic capacity—through sacred theater, shadow work, and radical self-expression. If you’ve ever struggled with perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional repression, or disconnection from your body, this episode is your medicine. ⸻ 🔥 WHAT YOU’LL FEEL IN THIS EPISODE   • Why your impulse is the most trustworthy thing you have  • The difference between performance and embodiment   • How shadow work can set you free instead of shaming you  • What it looks like to reclaim rage, grief, humor, and desire  • Why you don’t need to fix yourself—you need to express yourself  • How grief can soften you open if you let it  • Why being witnessed in your truth changes your whole nervous system   This isn’t surface-level empowerment. This is the descent into your body, your knowing, your wild, holy truth.  And you’ll walk away feeling more permission than you’ve ever felt… to be all of you. ⸻ 🌹 WHO THIS IS FOR   • Women exhausted by trying to do it all right  • Women who want to stop hiding and start feeling   • Women ready to use their voice, their art, their body as an instrument of liberation  • Women curious about sacred rage, erotic power, and reclaiming grief  • Women who feel too much—and are starting to realize that’s their gift  ⸻   ✨ CONNECT WITH MADELYN MOON   • 📸 Instagram: @madelynmoon  • 🌐 Website: maddymoon.com  • 🎁 Free 3-Part Series: The Unfuckwithable Artist     ~~~ Madelyn Moon is a leading voice in the world of feminine-masculine relationships, devoted to serving women in liberating their expressive, artistic hearts with themselves, with partners, and with the world.   Her work and story has been featured in hundreds of podcasts as well as various publications such as BBC, The Huffington Post, Teen Vogue, Thought Catalog, Nylon Magazine, The Daily Mail, Vice, Greatist, Men's Health, PEOPLE and ABC News Nightline.   Madelyn is the host of the top 100 ranked podcast, The Madelyn Moon Show, and the author of the best-selling book on conscious intimacy, Artist of Love.
