Description

Gutter Wisdom is the podcast for the capable, complex human who followed the rules — and still wasn’t prepared for what happens when comfort falls apart.

How you sex is how you live.

If you’re compromised in the bedroom, you’re likely compromised everywhere else. A compromised sex life is a compromised life life.


Hosted by Priestess Francesca, a professional Dominatrix, former HVAC engineer, and trauma-informed sexologist, this show dismantles the wall between your erotic life and your daily life.


Born and raised in Brooklyn, Francesca spent over a decade living a double life: engineering HVAC systems for New York City skyscrapers by day, and commanding high-stakes scenes in the dungeon by night. From mechanical rooms to the erotic underground, she discovered that human beings operate just like the systems she engineered — if you ignore pressure valves and hidden friction points, eventually, the whole thing blows.


That’s why we don’t do goddess platitudes or dry clinical lectures. We use sexuality as the ultimate diagnostic lens to examine the mechanics of your life. We take the skills required in the dark (negotiation, sensation, boundaries, and surrender) and engineer them into protocols you’re gunna wanna carry with you everywhere.


Because let’s be honest: everything is harder when you’re naked. And if you can learn to hold your ground and stay present during an intense scene in the bedroom, the boardroom doesn’t stand a chance.


Expect episodes on:

  • Somatic literacy (and why “regulating” your nervous system is often just a fancy way to bypass your feelings)
  • The psychology of kink, power dynamics, and BDSM
  • Navigating trauma, shadow, and desire without the fluff
  • Real-world stories from the construction site to the dungeon to the C-suite


It’s time to stop performing and start living. It’s time to engineer your liberation.

Who Gets to Hold Power (And Why It Matters)

Who Gets to Hold Power (And Why It Matters)

2026-02-1213:13

EP5: Part Four of The Safety Briefing turns the mirror. After unpacking hunger, red flags, and the hustle of healing, this episode asks a harder question: What kind of power do you carry; and are you equipped to hold it? It’s one thing to spot distorted leadership. It’s another to examine your own readiness to guide, teach, initiate, or influence. In this conversation, Priestess Francesca and trusted colleague Brittany Wittig synthesize the red flags discussed in Episodes 2–4 (con...
When Healing Becomes a Hustle

When Healing Becomes a Hustle

EP4: In Part Three of The Safety Briefing, Priestess Francesca and trusted colleague Brittany Wittig zoom out. This episode is not about individual bad actors. It’s about the system. When healing turns into a hustle, enlightenment becomes a product, and “happily ever after” gets sold as inevitability, something has gone wrong. Not because growth isn’t possible — but because pain, grief, and endings are being marketed as problems to eliminate instead of realities to integrate. The Spiritual In...
Red Flags That Feel Like Belonging

Red Flags That Feel Like Belonging

EP3: In this episode of Gutter Wisdom, Priestess Francesca and Brittany Wittig continue the Safety Briefing series by naming the red flags that most people miss — not because they’re naïve, but because these dynamics are engineered to feel affirming, intimate, and special. This conversation examines how power closes relationally, long before it ever becomes overtly abusive. From leaders taking credit for spiritual experiences, to human-controlled “initiations,” to the subtle construction of d...
Why We Hand Power Away When We’re Looking for Meaning

Why We Hand Power Away When We’re Looking for Meaning

EP2: In this episode of Gutter Wisdom, Priestess Francesca is joined by trusted colleague Brittany Wittig to begin dismantling the Spiritual Industrial Complex — not by shaming seekers, but by naming the real mechanism underneath it: hunger. This conversation isn’t about gullibility or intelligence. It’s about what happens when collective trauma, grief, and loss collide with unexamined authority — and how that collision makes otherwise capable people vulnerable to manipulation, cult dynamics,...
From HVAC to High Protocol: The Gutter Wisdom Manifesto

From HVAC to High Protocol: The Gutter Wisdom Manifesto

2026-02-0105:51

EP1: This is not a pivot story. It’s a systems story. In this opening episode of Gutter Wisdom, Priestess Francesca breaks down the unlikely (and inevitable) throughline between engineering HVAC systems for New York City skyscrapers and running high-stakes scenes in the dungeon. Because whether you’re negotiating airflow on the 40th floor or consent in a hotel suite, the mechanics are the same: pressure, power, and what happens when the container fails. In this episode, you...

They tell you to get your mind out of the gutter. But what if that’s exactly where the truth lives? Gutter Wisdom is the podcast for the capable, complex human who followed the rules — and still wasn’t prepared for what happens when comfort falls apart. Hosted by Priestess Francesca. A professional Dominatrix, former HVAC engineer, and trauma-informed sexologist. This show dismantles the wall between your erotic life and your life.
