In conversation with the wonderful Betty Martin, we explore sexuality and consent; the power of giving and receiving consent - and separating out those two feelings; consensual sex work; and an introduction to the core principles of Betty's concept: The Wheel of Consent.Dr. Betty Martin has had her hands on people professionally for over 40 years, first as a Chiropractor and upon retiring from that practice, as a certified Surrogate Partner, Sacred Intimate, and Somatic Sex Educator. Her explorations in somatic-based therapy and practices informed her creation of the framework, The Wheel of Consent®.bettymartin.orgwheelofconsentbook.comShow notes and transcripts: https://consentculture.co.uk/resources/idoconsent-podcast/

Episode 5 explores consensual language. Jenny is in conversation with Rivca Rubin, instigator of Upwording: a global appeal for change to a desirable world for all by evolutionising thinking through everyday use of language"Our communications today are still riddled with phrases and concepts that cultivate hierarchies and uphold inequalities. If our intention is to move to environments that nurture mutual benefit, promote autonomy and responsible living, we can choose to make active shifts in our intention and language that facilitate, rather than hinder this.When intention changes, the impact is instant – even very small changes create instant positive impacts with self and others."https://www.upwording.com/http://www.grandreunion.net/upwording/ - upwording podcast gives you full briefing on upwordingFollow Upwording on Facebook or InstagramUpwording and Consent Culture: See links to video recordings from the International Festival of Consent in 2020 - http://consentculture.co.uk/festival-of-consent/ Show notes and transcription available here: https://consentculture.co.uk/resources/idoconsent-podcast/
