On this week's episode we're going in on a sex + diversity conversation with the one and only Dirty Lola, edutainer and creator of the live sex Q&A, variety show and podcast Sex Ed A Go-Go. 

 
We discuss the need for more diversity at sex events, how founders, hosts and producers who claim they're inclusive can actually be real about it and touch on serious issues like racism, white privilege, and colorism. Join us as we encourage everyone to educate themselves on the real meanings of diversity and inclusion. 
 
The time is now.. especially for the white community to step up and take action. 
 
Here are a few ways to get active.. educate yourself by reading articles, books, listening to podcasts like 'Scene on Radio's' series 'Seeing White,' have conversations with people in your and other communities, and definitely speak up when you see, hear or experience racism, micro aggressions or discrimination first hand. 
 
Tune in to Episode 42, Diversity + Inclusion + Sex Ed with Dirty Lola!!

Do you wish you could have more open and honest conversations about sex and intimacy with your partner, friends, family members and community?

Have you ever wondered where you can find a space to have your questions about intimate topics discussed in a safe, open group setting?

Grateful to have Lucia Paxton from episode 27 return with her husband and partner in business, Trevor, discussing their adventure into the world of sensual researchers, conscious sexual community and hour long female orgasms! On this episode you're going to hear from a male perspective, which is something I've been wanting to add more of on the Ignite Intimacy podcast!!

After the birth of their daughter, Lucia struggled with feelings of sadness, body shame and inadequacy. When a female friend of hers called her “Juicy” and invited her to a communication group, it started her on a journey of sexual emancipation, which Trevor quickly joined. Jumping into courses on sensuality and sexuality, they learned that instead of trying to “fix” the things they thought were wrong about themselves, they could instead choose to have fun and live their lives through pleasure.

Wanting to share the concept of finding yourself perfect, and leave a legacy of perfection to their daughter, Lucia and Trevor founded Luscious L.O.V.E Life, where they teach women and couples about the path to pleasure through sensual gratification, pleasurable communication, and a woman’s orgasm.

About Lucia and Trevor:

Together since 1996 and the parents of a 16 year old daughter, Lucia and Trevor live in and run their business out of California.

Lucia, a former Spanish teacher, is an educator, entrepreneur, mother, and artist. She is a researcher of sensuality , communication, intentional living, and Deliberate Orgasm ( female orgasm).

Trevor, a former Silicon Valley techie and general contracter, has dedicated his life to service of the Goddess, and is a dedicated researcher and instructor of female orgasm, having trained in DOing (Deliberate orgasm) and advanced communication practices.
