Listen "Naughty Monkey - The Five Pillars of Intimacy"
Episode Synopsis
In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Monkey, a self-described “nerdy computer scientist turned tantric guide,” who shares his incredible journey of transformation. Growing up in India, Monkey repressed his sexuality for decades—struggling with shame, a stutter, and a failed arranged marriage—before discovering healing through psychedelics, tantra, and radical self-acceptance.We dive deep into his five pillars of intimacy: self-love, knowing yourself, communication, sensuality, and play.
