#107 The Porn Star's Daughter: Unbound Desire, Identity & Sexual Freedom with Laila Ocean

What happens when your earliest education about sexuality comes from growing up around the adult industry?

In this episode I chat with filmmaker and storyteller Laila Ocean to explore her unique experience of being the daughter of a porn performer, and how that shaped her understanding of sexuality, relationships, stigma, freedom, and desire.

Laila is currently creating Unbound, a documentary exploring sexuality, identity, and the human stories behind the adult industry. We discuss what it was like discovering her father's profession, the assumptions people make about pornography, and how growing up around adult entertainment influenced her own erotic development.

Here is the International Documentary Association fundraising page to support Laila's project: https://www.documentary.org/project/unbound-crowned-pleasure or connect with Laila on her Instagram @laila.ocean

We explore:

Growing up as the child of a porn performer.
Sexuality, stigma, and identity formation.
The making of the documentary Unbound.
Media narratives around sex work and porn.
Sexual freedom and cultural expectations.
Parenting, sexuality, and honest conversations.
