    Ev’Yan is a nutcase
    Ev’yan Whitney is a nutcase. She fired me as a client for literally being, I’m not kidding, 3 minutes late to a zoom. She is an ahole lol. If you actually listen to her work it’s completely devoid of content. Don’t waste your time, money or energy.

    Episode 59 on REPEAT
    On my third listen since this episode came out and it’s the gift that keeps on giving.

    Sexuality Doula
    Ev’Yan is my favorite and most accessible sexuality doula. They’re journey resonates with my experience and the way they articulate their process has been such a warm, supportive resource.

    Identifying as a man - this is incredibly healing
    Started with the episode of Pleasure is the Point on a Sunday afternoon. I’ve been at myself lately worried about how I lack hobbies, how I wouldn’t know joy if it stood in front of me. That episode title got me, and burst open several new avenues of thought towards the self. I’ve been on Bell Hooks’ books and interviews lately and this seemed like a continuation in experiences and feelings that I live with right now in every day life. I’m trying to keep myself from binging these episodes. Multiple listens just does it for me. For years, my mindset has put a curse onto my sexuality, my desires, and my evaluation of myself. I’m very grateful to have this podcast on my list of tools that I use and resources that I pull from in order to grow a new tree within me.

    You go girl!
    Very empowering podcast, I haven’t listened to many of the episodes (yet) but the ones I have heard have really gave me an affirming perspective on pleasure and sensuality, and incorporating this very natural satisfaction into daily living❤️

    Ev’Yan is such a healing force <3
    Love love LOVE this podcast and Ev’Yan’s work. Her commitment to education and inclusivity creates a safe space for all beings to truly know themselves in a deeper way and heal themselves. She makes healing accessible with her doable daily practices. Her spirit and ~beautiful~ voice is such a vibe and I’m truly grateful for all she is and all she is doing. Thank you girl!!! Must listen to this podcast.

    Calming, nurturing
    I love listening to this podcast! I’m playing catch-up right now, but the episodes I’ve heard so far have helped me give myself permission to be okay with where I’m at in my journey while also allowing myself to see the offerings to discover and learn more. Hearing Ev’Yan speak is so calming and the way they carry the conversation or interview feels like I’m just hanging out in the living room with them. They share so much vulnerability regarding their understanding and growth with the topics that come up when discovering more of ourselves.

    Just listened to the Sensual Man ep
    Male here who has been questioning his gender expression as of late, just wanted to say I was recommended this episode by a friend and it was truly insightful. I go back and forth between whether I actually like identifying as masculine or if I just like male privilege: this podcast really gave me a lot to think about in regards to how to tailor my own personal expression. I’ll definitely listen to more of this podcast 🙂

    Learn about sex from someone who hates it
    Ev’Yan is a joke as is the title Asexual Sex Doula. Get a grip. This woman is in the throes of mental illness. There are sex educators creating great content who actually...enjoy sex...
  • ariana julien
    Life changing!
    I am so grateful this podcast exists! I feel so seen already, and i’ve only listened to a couple episodes so far. I’ve learned and discovered so much about myself and I’m just so grateful it exists. Thank you for this offering Ev’Yan! 💗
  • Jackfruit not Flowers
    Good stuff to know
    I sift and sort through episodes based on my curiosity. I like what I hear because it challenges me and my journey through my sexuality and sensual self, especially with me being alone during this pandemic. It’s opened me up to re-evaluate myself and my future relationships, so thanks for that.

    Tapping into my curiosity, play, and exploration one episode at a time.
    I related a lot to the first few episodes I listened to which made me feel comfortable and supported enough to venture further into “uncharted” territory, exploring some of the episodes around decolonizing gender and sexuality that brought up emotions of shame and humility - which is a good thing. The episode conversations offer space to do some personal mirror work/reflection, which I appreciate, too. To be sure, the questions I have to ask myself during this practice are hard, but the answers are so rewarding and have helped me tap into a richer state of sensuality and somatic awareness. Thank you Ev’Yan!

    This podcast makes you a more curious and critically thinking human while wrapping you in loving energy + gives us all the permission to be sensual, pleasureful, brings. What’s not to love?!
  • bashly92
    Truly outstanding!
    I absolutely love Ev’Yan and this podcast and all the other work they’ve put out. I’ve been following them over the years, and their sharing of education and insight has helped me to unlearn all the harmful ideas out there about sex and my body and I am forever grateful. Sensual Self is definitely in my top 2 favorite podcasts! I’m always inspired after listening
  • Jillyanbechtold
    🥺🥺🥺
    This podcast has brought me closer to my true self in ways i can’t thank Evyan enough for. A guide to the deep corners of my heart, mind, and body. If you’re not listening, learning, practicing…you are missing out. Thank you Evyan and team. PS Evyan’s voice = calming, relaxing, ASMR.
  • Dream, dream, dream
    Amazing podcast!
    I’ve been listening for a while and it’s really mindblowing. If you want to learn more about your body, vulnerability, sensuality and different aspects of sexuality I invite you to listen to this amazing facilitator.

    Confidence Through the ROOF!
    I started tuning in a couple days ago and honestly ever since, I’ve been feeling more confident about myself and my body. I’m learning to remove any negative emotions that I’ve felt towards my body and learning to uplift my body. I’m taking the time to be thankful for myself and to love every little bit of me. Thank you so much for making this podcast! It really helps.
  • osis ekeirhenslodidbemsosiwhw
    Love!!!!!
    This podcast makes me feel seen, heard, and taken care of. I’m grateful for Ev’Yan sharing this with us and being so real and vulnerable and awesome. The asexuality episode felt so validating and freeing for me, again just so thankful for this podcast.

  • evieleewalton
    Love this podcast
    Such an empowering podcast, I’d recommend listening to this, especially if you need some affirmations and motivation.
  • pepper.a
    I love this podcast!
    It's not everyday that one finds a sex and pleasure positive show; one that looks at gender and race in all the best ways. Thank you for putting this wisdom out into the world. It's such a great resource and I share it with others regularly.
  • afcann
    So grateful for this!
    I love this podcast. I’m so grateful for how Ev’Yan Whitney shares their journey with us listeners - including their gender journey- and the new name and expanded content of this podcast. As someone who continues to unlock my relationship to my non binary, queer, disabled sensual self, this podcast feels nourishing, hopeful, and honest. Highly recommend.
  • AEZT
    Incredible podcast!
    Great podcasts that helps guide you in reconnecting with all that you wish to reconnect to. Great conversations that really get us thinking, feeling and bringing us back to the present, in a safe and healthy manner.
  • ggz00
    Love this podcast
    This podcast is my go to when I need to reconnect with myself, recenter, or calm down and remember to be mindful. This podcast has opened my mind and heart to so many ideas and realizations about myself and my journey. I think maybe my favorite part is that as I’ve grown and learned as long as I’ve been listening, Ev’yan (the host) has also grown and learned and acknowledged when something posted in the past is not how they think anymore. Ev’yan is such a beautiful example for anyone looking to enter or grow in their own sexual, and gender, liberation journey.
  • KatKyanite
    Exactly what I’ve been calling in
    Thank you for this. It’s been such a helpful tool in decolonizing the way I view myself and the world around me.
  • ash864
    Gratitude for visibility within this space
    Ev’Yan this podcast has put into words so many of my inner dialogues, pondering and experiences. Thank you so much for this work. As a non-binary Black Queer person dreaming of doing this work, this content feeds me. It has been refreshing to listen to dialogue between people speaking my language and hearing different perspectives. My top most recent episodes is the Asexuality episode and Decolonizing Gender. HERE for this!
  • Jshaw30
    This is the guidance I’ve been looking for!
    The inquiry and openness abd kindness and laughter and good energy this podcast exudes is something I have not found in many places. The warmth of your offering and your guests’ offering is something I take much value in. Thank you so much
  • gemini104
    Supported yet not coddled
    I appreciate how each episode feels like I’m being held in a warm embrace while my mind and spirit are being pushed to expand and open. The way you present topics that may seem radical to some, feels so accessible and welcoming. Thank you!
  • Elvistheyogi
    Love note
    I am so glad this podcast exists. It’s beautiful to experience media that moves at the pace of the body, not the frenetic pace of capitalism. All these topics: gender, sensuality, liberation, race, sex, relationships, ancestry- they *need* to be felt and processed through the body, and Ev’Yan is such a tender & fierce guide through that. it took me a minute to settle in, but once I did, whoo mama! There is so much richness and wisdom here, and while it’s deep and rigorous, it’s approachable and relatable too. snippets of these discussions reverberate, stay with me, and help me stay curious. Also, Ev’Yan has a delightful voice, SO soothing to listen to.
  • iv baby yems 🇨🇮
    What a Gem!
    I love how Ev’Yan constantly breaks the mold of the definition of sensuality in so many different aspects of life. I have felt encouraged to lean more into my sensuality, and it’s honestly the best thing I could do for my life. Much gratitude and love from a 21 y/o enby learning her/their way through life 🤍🤍🤍
  • Alanae131

    A Podcast to Savor
    I love this podcast. Ev’Yan moves through these conversation with such a slow, sensual intentionality that I adore. I always get excited when they have guests because even if I am super familiar with the guest, I know Ev’Yan is going to tap into a part of their work that no one else has. They are a forever student of sensuality and it is clear through every part of this podcast (starting with their creamy, smooth voice 🤗). Give it a listen!
  • savannah.8123
    fills my soul, questions (a good thing!) my identity, makes me feel safe
    This podcast is truly one of my favorite things I have the pleasure of experiencing. Ev’Yan feels like a warm sun to me, full of knowledge, power and chuckles! Their ability to navigate topics that we all need to address in our own lives on a daily basis is very admirable. Every episode of this podcast always creates resonance and curiosity for me but my top three favorites are Decolonize Your Gender, I’m Asexual, not Broken and Pleasure is the Point. All amazing guests that you’ll love along with Ev’Yan every episode! 💖
  • solitarydaughter
    Always a delightful moment of pause
    I've been listening to Ev'Yan for quite awhile now and continue to learn new things from them as they shift and explore new ways of understanding sensuality. From normalizing my desired relationship container, to my fears associated with sex, to being able to fully claim and understand my own gender - Ev'Yan has served as a guide. Their podcast is a gentle entry point into diving deeper into your own sensuality. As an added bonus, Ev'Yan's voice and demeanor alone will put you in a meditative spell. Enjoy!
  • Exhillarating
    My favorite tool for self exploration and healing
    This podcast is one of my favorite tools for self exploration and healing. I’ve learned so much about myself with Ev’yan’s gentle guidance. Watching Ev’yan grow, discover and thrive has been such a treat.
  • lalouda
    Affirming and thought
    Sensual self has been a podcast that shares stories with tenderness. Sometimes I find myself challenged by the content, but these moments give me a chance to go deeper into my own healing work. The score sets a calm tone and Ev’yan takes us through each episode with such care. Thank you for this life saving show.
  • Girasol Divina
    10/10 Would Recommend
    I have been listen to this podcast since the beginning and it has been truly transformational in my life. I am grateful for all the gems I’ve gathered along the way. I am grateful for the evolution of the podcast. I feel like it has shifted and evolved in alignment with my own journey. So grateful for Ev’Yan and all the other magical people I’ve been introduced to through this podcast. If you aren’t listening you are missing out. Tune in immediately!
  • DulceSupreme327
    Soothing and Sensual
    This podcast has helped me think more seriously about what it means to be alive in my body and present in the moment. The host has one of the most soothing voices and invites you to check in and dive deeper into feelings you may not have even recognized were there. Looking forward to hopefully getting her book down the road and unfolding more of my layers on my personal journey.

    NB BABY
    As I was starting to put words to my non-binary identity and experience, I heard episode 52 & it helped me clarify and articulate so much of my own inner dialogue. Every episode I come away with a consciousness shift where something is seen in a different or new way.
  • Jesshuett
    One of my new favorite podcasts
    I’m so grateful for Ev’Yan’s podcast! It has been both an educational and healing resource for me. I recommend this podcast to everyone.
  • AbaYogi
    Great job…
    I am not a Puritan, but as a 52 year old who can learn from a young blood, I have to say great job. I cannot have an open conversation with any adult openly about sex, it embarrass me. Even with the man I’ve married for 29 years. I’ve birth 3 children and still have a problem With the subject. And my husband is the only one I’ve been with. I am guessing that such a beautiful young woman has not experienced menopause, but if you have a source I. The subject?… I would love to hear about it.
  • HeidiHappens
    So enlightening and uplifting!

  • BrownAnt123
    WONDERFUL!! ❤️❤️
    I just found this podcast and have been listening nonstop! Ev’Yan is really knowledge and her podcast covers so many topics. It just felt like a giant weight of stigma and shame was taken off my shoulders when I started to listen to her.
