In this episode, Wil Fisher sits down with Simon Magnus, a facilitator, teacher, and creator who has spent the last 25 years blending movement, intimacy work, conscious kink, ecstatic dance, somatic practice, and theatre into powerful, playful, and transformational experiences. Simon creates bold yet safe spaces where connection thrives—inviting people to drop performance, meet honestly, and explore embodied love, surrender, and truth.

Together, they dive into a rich conversation on sacredness, presence, play, sexuality, surrender, and self-discovery. They explore how conscious kink can become a healing and transformative practice, how improvisation and intimacy share the same essential ingredients, and why reverence, curiosity, and embodied presence can open the door to more freedom, peace, and aliveness.

Together, they explore:

  • Sacredness, reverence, and the power of presence
  • Animism and relating to the world as alive
  • Enoughness and the paradox of self-development
  • The connection between improv, creativity, and erotic expression
  • Surrender as a practice of trust, attunement, and embodiment
  • How conscious kink can support healing and transformation
  • Exploring hidden parts of self through ritual, archetype, and play
  • Pleasure, pain, and the path toward deeper peace
  • Why adult play matters—and what it can teach us about intimacy and freedom
