Hope you’ve had a great couple of weeks!
I have a cheeky little request — I’m considering starting a podcast that will explore sex, technology & relationships, and would love to hear your thoughts. Do you listen to podcasts? If so, which are your favourites? What would you like to hear about from a podcast on sextech? Email hello@mysteryvibe.com and let me know.
In the meantime, let’s keep elevating the discussion on pleasure.
Yours,
