CD5 E2 - CHOKING IS INEVITABLE, COLLAPSE IS OPTIONAL - THE POWER OF RELATIONAL RESILIENCE

In this revealing episode of Conscious Dominance, Eric explores the nuanced difference between momentary "choking" and complete "collapse" in relationships, particularly within DS dynamics. Eric draws a powerful distinction between the inevitable moments when we energetically "choke" and the deeper pattern of full emotional collapse that can follow. Through vulnerable personal examples and client stories, Eric demonstrates how these momentary interruptions of presence become the foundation for growth when handled with consciousness. The most profound trust and erotic connection often emerge not from perfect performance, but from our ability to return to presence after briefly losing it.

About Conscious Dominance

The Conscious Dominance podcast was born from weekly conversations between two friends, Andrew & Eric.

Every week, we would connect and talk about the ways that our roles as Dominants in long term, loving Dominant/submissive relationships were calling us to higher integrity, and demanding the absolute best from each of us as men. And in those conversations, we realized how much other men might benefit from being let in on these conversations. So we started recording them for you.
