Summary
From being judged and silenced for her fascination with the Kama Sutra to becoming its most celebrated modern interpreter, Seema shares how self-love became her act of rebellion. Together, we talk about:
✨ Growing up rebelling against libertine attitudes and then discovering Tantra
✨ The link between shame, sensuality, and self-expression
✨ Why women still feel guilt for wanting pleasure
✨ The truth behind the Kama Sutra’s ancient wisdom
✨ How to fall in love with yourself — unapologetically in your sixties or at any age
This episode was inspired by our collaboration jewelry line KAMA, created to remind women to prioritize pleasure — in bed and beyond. Each piece is designed to honor the art of connection and confidence. In collaboration with Surmeyi, our Käma collection celebrates women’s bodies as inseparable from nature, and pleasure as the invisible force balancing the universe. Get your jewelry today:
