Finding Freedom and Presence in Submission: A Journey of Personal Growth
We created a pop up store with some really fun coffee mugs and kneeling pillows for the holidays. This will only be available until the end of December, but you can check it out at https://infinitedevotion.printful.me!
Episode 63: Finding Freedom and Presence in Submission: A Journey of Personal Growth
Welcome back, Devoted ones!
In this episode, we focus a lot on how Andrew has helped lead Dawn towards more freedom in her life.
One of the highest callings we have, when someone submits to us, is to use that power for good. Not to use that person for our own purposes, but to guide them to the best place we can in their own life.
My goal for Dawn has always been to set her free from her own constraints and limitations. And this episode is a deep and vulnerable look into that whole process.
And what I have had to become as a man, in order to lead her towards this freedom has been the biggest gift of my own life. Click here to see more about how I have worked to become the Dominant that I have. https://infinitedevotion.com/becoming-a-dominant-man-1

Detaching With Love: Breaking free from codependency in Dom/sub dynamics
Free gift: 7 Tips for a Rock Solid Dom/sub dynamic. Click here: https://infinitedevotion.com/7-tips
~~~~~~~
Welcome back, Devoted Ones! In this episode, Dawn and I dive into codependency and how it can infect, and ultimately cause harm to our relationship. We share stories of how we’ve shown up in codependent patterns in the past and what it’s taken to overcome them, and why we have to detach in order to experience the fullness of love and intensity in our Dom/sub relationship.
We also discuss the place that individuality and personal agency play in a deep, loving, spiritually connected union. In other words, how do we manage the fact that we’re separate people, but also desiring to experience the fullness of union, becoming one with each other.
This episode will be invaluable to any couple wanting to explore D/s together without losing yourselves, and in a way that honors both your individuality and your oneness.
Enjoy!

Finding a Dominant, Helping your man be more Dominant, and dealing with abusive Doms
To find the courses, workshops, and resources we reference in this episode, visit https://infinitedevotion.com/submissives
A few weeks back, we did two “Ask A Dom Anything” episodes, and in those episodes, we promised to record a follow up episode answering the three “Big Questions” that were asked by lots and lots of submissives when we solicited those questions.
This episode is here to deliver on that promise.
What are those three questions?
How do I encourage my boyfriend/husband/partner to be more Dominant?
How do I find a Dominant?
What do I do when my Dominant is being harsh, mean, abusive, or unkind?
And we look deeply into these questions and the challenges faced by any submissive woman who finds herself in the place to be asking them, and hopefully provide some insights and resources to help.
And thank you as always for listening and watching!

Embracing Feminine Beauty: Self-Care, Perfectionism, and Abundance in DS Dynamics
Free gift: 7 Tips for a rock-solid D/s Dynamic - visit https://infinitedevotion.com/7-tips
In this episode of the Dom Sub Devotion podcast, we explore the intricate relationship between feminine beauty, self-care, and the dominant-submissive dynamic within our 24/7 DS marriage.
Inspired by an email Dawn received from a list that she’s on, we tackle modern beauty standards, the pressure of perfectionism exacerbated by social media, and the 'crunchy' community's approach to self-care.
This conversation explores overcoming anxieties around beauty routines to achieving self-acceptance and celebrating personal beauty. We highlight the balance between health and beauty, the meditative and ritualistic aspects of self-care, and the significance of presence and authenticity.
Practical advice for both men and women is shared, emphasizing self-acceptance, reducing social media influence, and creating space for joy in beauty practices. The episode provides a comprehensive look at how empathy, mutual respect, and intentional actions foster beauty and abundance within our D/s relationship.

Beyond Sacrifice: Dominance, self care, and giving from fullness
Free gift: 7 Tips for a rock-solid D/s Dynamic - visit https://infinitedevotion.com/7-tips
In this episode of the Dom Sub Devotion podcast, the we delve into the critical importance of self-care for dominant men within 24/7 DS marriages and relationships.
An especially important topic in this discussion is the pitfall of self sacrifice for men, and an alternative approach to giving of ourselves while also taking care of ourselves. It’s no secret to anyone who explores a deep 24/7 dynamic that the sense of responsibility for the Dominant is significant.
So we discuss the essential role of routines like prioritizing sleep and personal grooming, and how self care and prioritizing yourself as a Dom is far from selfish.
We also practical advice on establishing a healthy balance between self-care and supporting one’s partner, emphasizing physical health, exercise, nutrition, and hydration. Through shared personal experiences and insights from the 'Becoming a Dominant Man' course, the conversation aims to inspire men to reclaim their self-worth, set boundaries, and foster mutual respect, ultimately enhancing both individual growth and relationship strength.

Free gift: 7 Tips for a rock-solid D/s Dynamic - visit https://infinitedevotion.com/7-tips
In this episode of the Dom Sub Devotion podcast, we explore the often repeated statement that “The submissive ACTUALLY holds all the power”.
We dissect this concept, emphasizing the critical role of consent and safe words in power exchange dynamics, but also the nuances of how those things play out when we start delving into these deeply trusting dynamics.
Speaking of nuance…the discussion explores the nuances of authority, leadership, and the emotional and trust-based exchanges required in such relationships. We also address how power dynamics differ in kink-focused relationships compared to loving, lifelong DS marriages. By sharing our experiences, we aim to illustrate the complexities of power exchange, highlighting the importance of empathy, vulnerability, and dealing with fear and emotional reactions in fostering a healthy and intimate D/s marriage.

Dom-Sub Dynamics and Healthy Communication: A Deep Dive
In this Q&A episode, Andrew addresses a myriad of questions from submissives exploring the intricacies of dominance and submission (DS) dynamics. Important topics include the significance of real-time communication in a DS relationship, managing accountability as a dominant, and the boundaries of consent.
The discussion touches on how to approach past traumas with prospective partners, transitioning from risky exploration to safer expressions of submission, and the role of non-sexual service tasks.
Andrew emphasizes the importance of healthy boundaries, authentic desire over performance, and how to engage in constructive dialogue within the DS framework. The episode also explores the complexities of individual dynamics, finding compatible partners, and how both dominants and submissives can nurture a fulfilling relationship.
