Description

Why do we write what we desire?

In this literary deep-dive, Carly — founder of Aurore — joins me to explore erotic storytelling as a path to self-discovery, healing, and expression.

We discuss:


  • The transition from dominance to submission

  • Reclaiming power after abuse

  • Feminism, shame & desire

  • The psychology behind erotic writing

  • AURORE’s birth as a confessional community
