5. Why Orgasms Make You Cry

Welcome back to Blossom & Blade!
In this episode, I begin with a question that has stayed with me for years: If you won’t let yourself cry, how will you let yourself orgasm?
This is a conversation about pleasure as a doorway into the whole emotional field of the body and what becomes possible when things that have been stuck, swallowed or gone numb begin to move again.
I share moments from my own Self Pleasure practice, including the experience of slowly meeting my cervix and learning to stay with the numbness, grief and loneliness that I found there.
From there, I speak into emotional alchemy, catharsis and titration, and the balance of fire and water inside this work: the intensity that transforms us, and the slowness that allows the body to unfurl without being blown open.
In this episode, I explore:
• Why orgasms can make us cry - and why that’s a good thing
• How pleasure can help stuck energy begin to move
• What it means to become emotionally current
• Why catharsis is not bad, but also not something to chase
• How to meet the edge of your capacity without barging through
