In this episode, Ixchel and Lucero unpack what eroticism actually means beyond the sexual shorthand—as a source of self-knowledge, creative force, and a personal barometer for what you will and won’t accept. What starts as a journal prompt quickly becomes a full-on reflection on desire, boundaries, femininity, and the courage it takes to name what you really want. You’ll discover:-Why Audre Lorde’s definition of the erotic challenges the way women are taught to think about pleasure-How the erotic can show up in everyday life through food, music, conversation, movement, and creative rituals-Why deep connection can feel intimidating to other people, and why that can actually be a filter-How curiosity, excellence, and intensity shape the way we move through relationships, work, and self-discovery-What it means to stop centering everyone else and start building a life aligned with your actual desiresThis episode is a reminder that eroticism is not just about attraction—it’s about aliveness. It’s about noticing what gives you energy, what makes you feel expansive, and what you’re no longer willing to shrink yourself for. If you’re in a season of self-discovery, boundary-setting, or wanting more from your life, this one will leave you thinking about your own desires long after it ends.
