Episode 25: Reclaiming Erotic Sovereignty: Practicing Pleasure Amidst Chaos
EPISODE SUMMARY
Today’s guest, Victor Warring, has a quite provocative title - he is an Erotic ReWilder. Which includes his roles as a Somatic Sexuality Educator, mentor, coach and community facilitator. Victor is dedicated to supporting people in reclaiming their erotic sovereignty and removing any self-imposed, internalized or socially imposed obstacles that interfere with the expression of their bodily erotic brilliance.
In this episode, we dive into the distinction between erotic and sexual—and why that difference matters.
We also explore what it means to rewild after generations of colonization, and how we begin to deconstruct the narratives that have shaped our bodies, our pleasure, and our sense of self.
What does it mean to rewild, decolonize, and reclaim our experience of pleasure and intimacy?
How do we embody erotic sovereignty—not just in moments of intimacy, but in our relationships with ourselves, each other, and the world?
Victor shares how sexological bodywork can support this reclamation, the role of conscious pleasure practices, and how we can expand our capacity to experience pleasure—even amidst chaos, collapse, and collective overwhelm.
