• Getting comfortable with the unknown: breaking free from sex on autopilot 30.06.2026 26min

  From her years of private practice and teaching, Sarah sees that being in the unknown is one of the most challenging things for people wanting to shift their sex lives, yet rarely talked about.It is the piece that, when embraced, opens up a whole new world of possibilities. Most of us learned sex as a script: a linear sequence with predictable stops along the way, repeated until it becomes routine.In this episode, Sarah explores what happens when we step off that script and into the unknown, and why that discomfort might be one of the most generative places in our erotic lives. Stepping off the script takes practise, which is why we host the Making Love Retreat in October to support you to safely lean into that curious exploration.This is about those micro moments where we don't know what to do, or where we find ourselves repeating the same things on autopilot.She unpacks how the pressure to perform, please, and follow a predictable path keeps us from noticing what's actually happening in our bodies, and why the same curiosity we'd bring to changing up our diet or exercise routine can transform our sex lives too.In this episode you'll hear:Why the scripts we learn around sex are so limiting, and how to start questioning themThe role of curiosity, awareness, and practice in expanding pleasure and connectionHow performance pressure shows up in the bedroom and what helps release itWhy practice time, free from the pressure to "finish" a certain way, changes everythingStories from client work showing how the smallest moments create the biggest shiftsThe myth that good sex must end in a particular way, and what becomes possible without itWhy ‘messy learning’ might be exactly what your erotic life needsThrough stories, Sarah shows how a pause, a breath, or naming a flicker of stress out loud can shift an entire dynamic. As she puts it, your erotic life is ever evolving, and rather than adding more, letting go of conditioning is what allows you to drop in deeper.RESOURCES FROM SARAH The Making Love Retreat for Couples, 12th - 18th October, 2026ABOUT YOUR HOSTYour podcast host is Sarah Rose Bright.

• Love as the Final Frontier with Tobin Zivon 11.05.2026 1h 10min

  What if your most intimate relationship is also your most profound path of growth - and the place where everything you have learned about love is most deeply tested?In this conversation, Sarah Rose Bright is joined by Tobin Zivon, teacher, guide, and devoted servant to love - for a rich exploration of what it means to live love as a practice. Not as an ideal. But as a daily, embodied, sometimes messy commitment to showing up fully.Tobin brings rare depth to this conversation. He speaks from genuine lived experience - of the gap between spiritual aspiration and relational reality, of the courage vulnerability asks of us, and of why intimate relationships remain the final frontier of personal growth.In this conversation we explore:- Why intimate relationships are the final frontier for personal growth — and why so many of us struggle to bring our practice into them- The challenge of inspiring a partner to grow alongside you- The difference between the conditioned channel and the essence channel — and how switching between them transforms the way we relate- How comparison and idealism — the blessings and burdens of modern teachings — shape our experience of real relationships- Why vulnerability is the doorway to love and genuine connection- The profound importance of repair — and how tending to the small moments builds deeper intimacy over time- How curiosity transforms conflict into an opportunity for learning and growth- Why messy learning is not a sign of failure but a natural and necessary part of the journey- Love and relationship as a genuine spiritual path — and what it means to treat them that way- The evolving nature of love — and how deepening our understanding of ourselves deepens our capacity to love othersTobin Zivon has been wholeheartedly dedicated to spiritual awakening and to serving others in the flowering of their highest potential for over 30 years.Author of The Art of Mindful Living and the upcoming book, Allies in Awakening: Living the Truth of Unconditional Love in Intimate Relationships, he has been described as “The Ultimate Guide… A rare, exquisite blend of Therapist, Coach, Spiritual Teacher and Tantra Master all wrapped into one.”He has worked with thousands of individuals and couples to help them break through stuck patterns and painful dynamics, helping them to find their way into a more fulfilling and connected life of authentic liberation, love and relationship satisfaction.RESOURCES FROM TOBIN Websites tobinzivon.com and awakenedbrotherhood.comInstagram @tobinzivonSex mastery secrets, an online courseRESOURCES FROM SARAHDEVOTION is a 5-month journey for women to return home to their feminine bodies, awaken their sensuality and reclaim their true power.

• From Domination to Partnership - A New Story for Humanity with Dr Riane Eisler 27.04.2026 54min

  Dr Riane Eisler has had a profound impact on my life and it was such an honour to speak with her. Dr Riane is a cultural historian, social systems scientist, futurist and author. She is best known for The Chalice and the Blade and for Sacred Pleasure - a visionary exploration of sex, myth, and the politics of the body that was published 31 years ago and reads as though it were written for this very time.At the heart of our conversation is the framework Dr Riane created - Cultural Transformation Theory, which offers that the more fundamental question beneath all of our political and social categories is this - does a society organise itself around domination, or around partnership? Domination systems rely on rigid gender hierarchies, fear and violence beginning in the family. Partnership systems begin from a different premise entirely - that power can be power with rather than power over, and that caring roles are the foundation of society.We also explore how domination has been woven into our erotic imagination — into myth, religion, fairy tales, and pornography — and what it would mean to find our way back to a sexuality rooted in empathy and connection rather than performance and conquest. As Riane shared - the sexual revolution of the 1960s offered real opening, but a culture without sexual ethics is not liberation.Her depth of knowledge and her unique viewpoint as a true elder, she offers context for the times we are in. That the current regression we’re experiencing, is pushback to all movements that have been challenging domination.In this conversation we explore:Dr Riane's incredible personal story and how her childhood experiences planted the seeds of a lifetime's workCultural Transformation Theory and the partnership and domination lens that cuts through our inherited political categories and connects the dotsHow domination has been woven into our erotic imagination, through myth, religion, fairy tales, and pornography, and what a genuine sexual evolution might look likeThe context for the times we are living in and through the cultural transformation lensThe four cornerstones of cultureThe radical and still-urgent vision of Sacred Pleasure - and why a book published 31 years ago feels more relevant than everThis conversation only scratched the surface of what Dr Riane's work holds - and there is so much more I wanted to explore with her. I really encourage you to read Sacred Pleasure. It is a potent and I feel essential book.Sacred Pleasure is an exploration of how sexuality, the body, and pleasure have been shaped, and distorted, by the shift from partnership to domination cultures. Drawing on archaeology, mythology, religion and history, she traces how what was once considered sacred - the erotic, the feminine, the body's capacity for pleasure and connection, was systematically vilified, controlled, and weaponised as domination systems took hold.She shows how pain, submission, and violence became eroticised through religion, myth, law, and culture, and how this distortion runs through everything from fairy tales to pornography to the way we understand romantic love.The book is visionary, as Dr Riane writes, that reclaiming the erotic and the body as sacred, is not only personally liberating but politically and culturally transformative and how that would shape a genuinely partnership-oriented world.Riane Eisler, JD, PhD(h), is the recipient of many honors, such as the Distinguished Peace Leadership Award earlier given to the Dalai Lama, and internationally known for her groundbreaking contributions as a systems scientist, futurist, and cultural historian. She is author of many books, including The Chalice and the Blade, now in its 57th US printing and 27 foreign editions, The Real Wealth of Nations, hailed by Nobel Peace Laureate Desmond Tutu as "a template for the better world we have been so urgently seeking," and Nurturing Our Humanity, Oxford University Press, 2019, co-authored with Douglas P. Fry.Eisler’s innovative whole-systems research offers new perspectives and practical tools for constructing a less violent, more egalitarian, gender-balanced, and sustainable future. Eisler is President of the Center for Partnership Systems (CPS), which provides practical applications of her work, and Editor in Chief of the online Interdisciplinary Journal of Partnership Studies published at the University of Minnesota. She keynotes conferences worldwide, has taught at many universities, has written hundreds of articles and contributions to both scholarly and popular books, pioneered the application of human rights standards to women and children, has addressed the UN General Assembly, and consults to businesses and governments on the partnership model introduced by her work.RESOURCES FROM RIANEWebsite — rianeeisler.comPeace Begins at Home SummitThe Chalice and the Blade — Riane EislerSacred Pleasure — Riane EislerThe Real Wealth of Nations — Riane EislerNurturing Our Humanity — Riane Eisler and Douglas FryRESOURCES FROM SARAHDEVOTION is a 5-month journey for women to return home to their feminine bodies, awaken their sensuality and reclaim their true power.

• The Peaceful Penis with Graeme Waterfield 13.04.2026 47min

  What if the way we've been taught to think about the penis - and about penetration, erection, and performance - has been limiting the depth of connection available to us?In this conversation, Sarah Rose Bright is joined by her partner Graeme Waterfield to explore the idea of the ‘peaceful penis’. A concept that challenges everything our culture has told us about how male sexuality should look, feel, and function - and opens the door to a far more pleasurable, and deeply intimate experience of lovemaking.This is a conversation for anyone ready to move beyond performance and into presence, curious about what becomes possible when relaxation, mindfulness, and genuine connection replace pressure, urgency, and goal-oriented sex.Sarah and Graeme speak honestly from their own journey together.In this conversation we explore:- What the peaceful penis actually means - and why it represents a more balanced, connected approach to sexuality- How cultural conditioning has shaped the way we understand erections, penetration, and male sexual performance- Why relaxation during lovemaking creates deeper emotional connection than arousal alone- The difference between a performance-based approach to sex and a presence-based one- Why erections don't need to lead anywhere - and what opens up when that pressure is released- How softness in the body can lead to greater intimacy and pleasure than hardness ever could- The role of emotionality in sex - and how it can create pressure and disconnection without us realising- How to begin reconditioning sexual energy - with curiosity rather than agenda- Practices of gentle touch and conscious presence that cultivate genuine intimacy- Why the journey of conscious sexuality is ongoing, evolving, and infinite- Tools - not rules - for erotic exploration togetherGraeme Waterfield is a men’s coach who guides men into deeper presence, embodiment, and self-awareness.

• The Dynamics of Giving and Receiving with Betty Martin 06.04.2026 1h

  The Missing Piece in Your Intimate Life?The Dynamics of Giving and Receiving with Betty Martin - new podcast episode out nowWhat if the missing piece in your intimate life isn't about desire or technique - but about truly knowing what you want, and feeling safe enough to say so?In this episode, Sarah Rose Bright is joined by Betty Martin, creator of the Wheel of Consent — one of the most transformative practices in the field of conscious touch, intimacy, and relating. Simple in its structure and profound in its impact, the Wheel has quietly revolutionised how thousands of people understand the dynamics of giving, receiving, taking, and allowing.This is one of Sarah's favourite practices - both personally and in her work with clients. She has seen again and again how it transforms people's experience of touch, pleasure, and genuine connection. And this conversation is a beautiful introduction to why.Betty shares the story behind the Wheel of Consent and unpacks the subtle — and often hidden — dynamics that shape every experience of touch and intimacy. How we give. How we receive. How rarely we are truly asked what we want. And how transformative it can be when we finally are.Sarah didn't get to half her questions — so watch this space for round two.In this conversation we explore:- The two core questions at the heart of the Wheel of Consent- Why knowing what you want is a skill — and why so many of us were never taught it- Why asking for what you want can feel so vulnerable- How setting clear limits actually creates more generosity and enjoyment- The discomfort so many people feel around receiving — and where it comes from- How slowing down helps you feel what is actually true for you- How exploring what you don't want can clarify what you do- Why the ability to say no builds trust, safety, and deeper connection- How many people have never truly been asked what they want- How transformative it can be to choose — consciously and freely — how you are touchedDr. Betty Martin has had her hands on people professionally for over 40 years (some of it legal and some of it questionable). 30 years of Chiropractic and other modalities, then later, 15 years of Somatic Sex Education and Surrogate Partner Therapy. Also Contact Improv and other kinds of play.She is the developer of the Wheel of Consent, a cutting edge model of receiving and giving, based on touch but amenable to non-touch practices as well. She is the author of The Art of Receiving and Giving: The Wheel of Consent.She loves sharing her experience.

• Slow Sex in a Fast World with Diana Richardson 03.04.2026 59min

  For this first guest episode, I am joined by someone whose work I hold in the deepest respect - Diana Richardson, pioneering teacher of slow sex. For over 30 years, Diana has guided more than 15,000 couples in week-long residential retreats in Switzerland - The Making Love Retreat, which Graeme and I now teach.Diana and I explore what happens when we stop approaching sex as something to perform or achieve - and start bringing it into presence, awareness, and genuine connection. So much of what we've inherited about sex is shaped by urgency, peak experiences, and the pressure to get it right. Diana speaks about how this quietly creates insecurity and self-doubt, and what becomes possible when we simply... slow down.This isn't technique. It's a way of coming home to yourself and to each other.We talk about the difference between ‘having sex’ and 'making love’. About how small, subtle shifts create profound change - and why the most important shift is always the connection to yourself first.We also talk about modern life - parenthood, packed schedules, the challenge of staying genuinely connected when everything is pulling at you. Diana shares her beautiful "love keys” - simple, powerful tools for coming back into connection, and the role of kindness, compassion, and generosity in how we meet one another.In this conversation we explore:- Why slowing down opens awareness and deepens intimacy- How cultural conditioning shapes our approach to sex - often through performance and pressure- What becomes possible beyond peak experiences- Why so many people carry insecurity or self-doubt in their sexual experience- The difference between having sex and making love- How small, subtle shifts create profound change- Creating space - internally and relationally, for connection to unfold- Why presence matters more than quantity- Practical guidance for parents navigating intimacy within busy lives- The "love keys" as simple tools for deeper connection- How embodiment supports not just intimacy, but daily life- The power of honest, open communicationDiana has said that so many of the world's difficulties trace back to a lack of understanding about sex — how it shapes our sense of self, our emotions, our relationships. I believe that too.How we relate to love and sex ripples out into everything - our families, our communities, the world we are collectively creating. And right now, in this moment in history, this conversation feels more alive and more needed than ever.RESOURCES FROM DIANADiana Richardson is widely regarded as a leading contemporary authority on human sexuality and conscious intimacy. A bestselling author on Tantra, her work centers on the union of sex and meditation, and on practical ways this sacred connection can transform intimate life.Diana's approach is grounded in a lifelong exploration of sexuality, love, and meditative awareness. She developed Generative Sex, also known as Cool Sex, an evolutionary and sustainable approach to intimacy. This distilled wisdom is shared through her practical Love Keys, presented in her bestselling book, The Heart of Tantric Sex. For over 30 years, Diana has guided more than 15,000 couples in week-long residential retreats in Switzerland, and she is now launching a Rekindle Intimacy online course based on these highly successful retreats.Websites:rekindletantra.comhttp://www.livinglove.comRESOURCES FROM SARAHDEVOTION is a 5-month journey for women to return home to their feminine bodies, awaken their sensuality and reclaim their true power.

• The Evolutionary Power of Love & Sex with Sarah Rose Bright 03.04.2026 14min

  Welcome to Making Love: a podcast with me, Sarah Rose Bright.In this episode I share what's been alive for me in this process, why this name and my vision for the podcast, and, what I believe is one of the most important and under explored conversations of our time - how love, sex, and intimacy are evolving.Love, sex and intimacy are fundamental to life. They are forces that shape how humanity evolves. Over the past few decades, the architecture of intimate life has shifted dramatically and there are new forces shaping modern intimacy from how we date to social media and AI.This podcast asks - what is changing and what is possible? What is breaking through as the old stories break down? What new stories are trying to emerge?I begin to explore:- Why intimacy and relationships are evolving and what is breaking down and breaking through this at moment in history- The significant shifts in how we meet, connect, and live over the past few decades- How social media, technology, and AI are reshaping intimacy- The transition of sex from procreation to recreation - and what lies beyond both- Co-creation as a new model for sexual and relational experience- The suppression and distortion of sexuality - and what we are reclaiming- Sex as a living practice of growth, healing and awakening- The light and beauty of what the erotic can become- Why these conversations matterRESOURCES FROM SARAHDEVOTION is a 5-month journey for women to return home to their feminine bodies, awaken their sensuality and reclaim their true power.

  Catherine Hale is a pioneer in creating workshop and event spaces with care and safety at the core.
