Hi! My name is Radiant Rebecca. I'm a polyamorous woman (aka an ethical slut), a courtesan, and a tango dancer. I love to make people blush. Especially if it makes them think! This podcast is about love. And my love life. And my … um, sex life. In each episode, you will hear me in rich, intimate, brainy conversations with my partners, lovers, and curious friends. We will share with you, often in real-time, how we navigate relationship transitions and jealousy, fighting nicely, practice partnership, communicate consciously about sex, money, and more. Expect big chunks of useful information and science geekery, a lot of inspiration, and a dash of magic on top… and of course, lots of talk about pleasure and its manifestations! I believe that TRUE pleasure improves us, and I aim to follow true pleasure wherever it leads. I'm not always right. But I'm always enjoying myself! Care to join me?

episode 82: Pleasure and Grief
RATED PG-13: For mild language and emotionally intense content
Rebecca shares about grief and the importance of holding space for our own grief and the grief of others in order to get back to pleasure again.
Comment from an early listener: “You showed us how it should not be done when describing your mom’s funeral. You showed us how it should be done when explaining how your peer group held you tightly in high school, and you showed us how much you need it now, with the absence of your friend group during the pandemic. My heart broke with you as you spoke. But I knew it was okay that it broke, as we would mend it together.”
- Scott Bryant-Comstock, host of The Kundalini Chronicles podcast (http://kundalinichronicles.com/)
