Episode Summary: This week, Mx. Dizzy, Pup Marquis Rekkr, and Lord Allen are sitting down with one of their favorite educators, Master Devyn Stone!!!! Master Stone is gracing us with speaking on his class on Conscious Language.

“​​They say actions speak louder than words, and the adage isn’t any less true within the kink and BDSM community. Oftentimes, however, the language we draft has an opportunity to act and create impressions before we have a chance to speak. Whether you’re drafting policies, designing signs for your dungeon, or creating invitations to your event, you will want to make everyone feel included. In “Conscious Language,” Devyn Stone fosters discussion with participants on how to consciously craft language and persona in media and presentation in order to evoke the values and principles of individuals, organizations, and event spaces. Please note: there will be examples of language that may be harmful to BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, Neurodivergent, and disabled folx in order to demonstrate to attendees what is and isn’t conscious language.”

Join us for TWO WEEKS of Master Devyn Stone on Conscious Language, a skill everyone in the community and outside of it can and should use!!
