Thalia also shares her work facilitating experiences like cuddle parties, playfights, and kink-centered events—all designed to help people reconnect with their bodies, boundaries, and desires.This episode is thoughtful, intimate, and grounded in mutual admiration—offering listeners a powerful look at what it means to truly engage with intimacy in a conscious and connected way.
