Navigating Needs and Wants in a Dom/Sub Relationship

Dom Sub Devotion - Un pódcast de Andrew & Dawn - Infinite Devotion - Lunes

Episode 44: Navigating Needs and Wants in a Dom/Sub Relationship   Join us in this episode of the Dom Sub Devotion podcast as we explore the intimate and important topic of how we handle responding to each other's needs and wants within a 24/7 DS marriage. We discuss the hierarchy of needs that places the submissive's needs first, the dominant's needs second (and why it MUST be this way), the dominant's wants third, and the submissive's wants last, and why this hierarchy helped at the beginning of our dynamic, but why we've also evolved to a more nuanced and open way of addressing this topic in our dynamic. The conversation covers the psychological, emotional, and spiritual aspects of fulfilling needs and desires, the challenges faced by both partners, and the importance of mutual support and trust. We offer practical insights on how the dominant can lead effectively without ending up just pleasing his submissive, and how the submissive can open up to receive. This episode offers valuable lessons for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of power exchange dynamics. ~~~~~~~~~~ Get Dawn's Manifesto: The Self Respecting Submissive Woman.
