My Second Sex Party + (How MDMA Opened My Heart)

This episode is about the SECOND time I went to a sex party. I actually participated here, and it changed my life in a big way. We all took a micro dose of MDMA, and what happened might surprise you...🔸 Watch this episode on Youtube here.🔸 Watch the FIRST Sex Party episode here.🎙️ View All Podcast Episodes Here👇 (Free guides & resources below)THOUGHTS ON MDMA:Just to be clear - I'm not saying that everyone should go out and take MDMA to have a therapeutic experience. There are lots of risks to consider. One of the biggest dangers of MDMA is the fact that the vast majority of "MDMA" being sold is cut or laced with another substance. This can be dangerous, and in many cases deadly when laced with fentanyl. IF you are going to try MDMA in a recreational way, please please please at least get a fentanyl test kit and test whatever you get before you take it. Also remember that I'm not a doctor or health care provider of any kind. This episode is just about me sharing my own personal experience.Also, MDMA is being used in therapeutic contexts around the country, and there is lots of academic research happening around it right now too. The potential of this substance - when used with intention - is massive.Personally, I don't like to take any substance to the point where I feel unable to function. I am open to OCCASIONALLY exploring micro amounts of substances in very specific experiences, but drugs & alcohol taken in the stereotypical party context are not interesting to me.🔱 GET MY FREE SEXUAL MASTERY GUIDES:🔸 Free 7-Day Semen Retention Challenge 🔸 Free Ejaculation Control Guide 🔱 WORK WITH ME:🔸 Orgasmic Mastery Course🔸 Semen Retention Mastery🔱 CONNECT WITH ME:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/taylorclarkjohnsonWebsite: https://www.taylorjohnson.life/Support the show

My First Sex Party... (Personal Story)

This episode is about the first time I went to a sex party.

It's more of an edutainment episode, because there's not a big lesson or takeaway from this episode other than pure fascination and entertainment... which is definitely a worthy reason to listen to a podcast. And... I was actually paid to go!
