Hosted by sexual health educator Natty Love, this workshop is an interactive and explorative guide on how to begin liberating your sexual pleasure. Participants will be led through a discussion on possible blockages to pleasure through a trauma-informed, African, Caribbean, and Black lens. This will be followed by a mind mapping activity to further identify barriers to pleasure, and the path towards healing and pleasure liberation.

Please note that this event is exclusive to Black-identifying students, staff, and faculty in the U of G community.
