In this episode, we explore the deep connections and mental landscapes of D/s relationships with Kaiah, a 25 year old non-binary, owned and collared genderfluid submissive. Kaiah embodies roles such as Fox, Primal Prey, Brat, and Good Girl, and shares their experiences navigating the interplay of desire, identity, and submission.

We discuss:

  • The psychology behind ownership and collars in D/s dynamics.

  • Embracing primal instincts as Prey in power exchange.

  • How genderfluidity and queerness shape their submission journey.

  • and much more...

Dive into this fascinating conversation about the power of surrender and self-discovery in BDSM.
