Episode 68: D/s without punishments, overcoming “nice guy” syndrome, and more!

Welcome to the latest episode of the Dom Sub Devotion podcast! In this episode, we have an engaging discussion surrounding the use of punishments within a 24/7 DS (Dominant/Submissive) marriage. We address questions from our Instagram followers about our personal choice to exclude punishment from our dynamic and share insights about why it doesn't work for us.

We also delve into the challenges of maintaining authentic communication, and how to navigate changes in your dynamic. Additionally, we reflect on the inaccuracies of DS depictions in movies and books, explore how to have healthy communication check-ins with your partner, and reflect on the challenges for good men stepping into Dominant roles.

Tune in to gain thoughtful perspectives and practical advice for fostering a deeply loving and intimate DS relationship.

Enjoy!
