Erotic Embodiment

Kadie Smilessoundcloud.com
My name is Kadie. I work as a performer, astrologer, and a birth worker, and I'm constantly thinking about the erotic, which for me includes ancestry, storytelling, grief, sex, and astrology. When I think about embodying my own eroticism, I think about standing fully in my multitudes which includes everything from my astrological placements to eulogies to those I've lost. Inspired by Audre Lorde's "Uses of the Erotic" and "Poetry is Not a Luxury", each week I share astrology, stories, grief and interviews, with the hopes that y'all will feel braver in embodying your own eroticism.
