In the first-ever live, in-person episode of Awakened Love, Angel Drake sits down with her dear friend Yossef Sagi — mystic, teacher, coach and founder of The Mystery Temple — for a conversation that starts with floggers at airport security and goes all the way down. Together they explore the nervous-system chemistry of BDSM and why safety without intensity is dull, but intensity without safety is torture. They unpack the romantasy phenomenon and what the villain who claims her — versus the prince who owns her — reveals about female desire. And they go deep into the healing of men: the rise of the tantric f*ckboy, why women's discernment is part of the work, and the constant, living balance between sovereignty and surrender in long-term love. Yossef returns soon to share his 25 years inside a spiritual organisation — and his adventures in the world of conscious play parties. Subscribe so you don't miss it.
