Summary

Sexuality both fascinated and scared Layla Martin from a very young age, and she's always been obsessed with it. She eventually overcame her fear and turned that obsession into a passion for helping others. Now she studies human sexuality and has learned how to use the science behind sexuality to help detox people's unhealthy relationships with sex. Take a listen to our latest episode and have your myths and preconceptions about sexuality blown away!


Layla Martin studied sexuality at Stanford University and in the jungles of Asia with Tantric masters. Her goal is to de-toxify your sex-life and your love-life and upgrade to an organic and maximally healthy approach to sex and love.
