Infinite Devotion is a place where we share our love, and our experience of coming into deep intimacy and conscious relating through Dominant/submissive power exchange dynamics.
Through our podcasts, coaching and online courses, we help people connect their desire for Dom/sub relationship dynamics with the heart, and show a path to have the intensity and passion of power exchange inside of healthy, loving relationships.
I really enjoy listening to you both .Like anything else I take away from your talks, the things that help me . That I can relate to. I think the aura of a person can be feld when in their present. As in the words of Mel Brooks, " It's good to be the king." LOL That's. Correct life is not fair. It just goes to show a Domnaint has the same emotions as a submissive .It's the Ying and yang of life.☯️ Ana ☮️☯️
6:18 Intresting. I was approached in a way by the slave/companion I had. Seems to break all stereotypes. The first month maybe 2 going over things. I was half clueless then also, but grew into the part naturally. But a big part of that was a good sub/slave that let me grow my own way into it all. Never married, but we talked about similarities and differences a few times. It's weird. As a kid growing up I saw the stereotypical D/s. But after getting into a master slave relationship. I noticed a lot of the long term where normal looking. 6:43 That's what good doms/owners do or can do. In ways both the Dom and sub grow in healthy ways with the right matching. I liked helping her grow and got into training a good bit. After about 2 years we where a solid team. 6:43 Shared load and one can be stability or calm when a storm hits. Good types of bonds that evolve. Nice to see a good normal long term D/s relationship that is not what others would think of due to stereotypes out there in society. Good luck out there.
I really appreciate your naked truth and vulnerability with these videos. My husband and I are just embarking on this new trajectory of D/s, (he is in your class) and are loving the vital guidance you provide. We have been together for 18 years and found ourselves exactly as you described in the first podcast, knowing the blah of mediocrity and decline of desire was societally expected but convinced we could experience more. There is very little information out there about this dynamic within a committed relationship and the depth of intimacy and truth this structure can provide. We are finding there is simply no place to hide when done right and that is so good. The structure of D/s the way we are experiencing it and the way you two model it for us is such a perfect vessel for the change we are seeking. Thank you so much for all you do. You two are a beautiful force for change and a much needed reality check on what is possible within a long term committed relationship.
Your podcasts have become conversation starters for my husband and i. We are going on 28 years of marriage and 2 years of D/s. You guys are such a great example of how "good this can get" which has become our motto too.
My father loved my husband until my husband became my Dom. My husband finally was able to help me establish healthy boundaries as it pertained to my (highly abusive, narcissistic) father. My father could no longer dom me and I felt safe and protected by my husband. M
Welcome aboard! We've got almost 50 episodes of our podcast, plus the Conscious Dominance Podcast that Andrew hosts with his friend Eric...lots to see and learn!
@@infinitedevotion Infinite, I think the last Minnesota game I watched they had Fran Tarkington. I told my wife today that I have pretty much just given up on FB period. That’s right after I got her a dog collar though. //ji
That's a really good question, and something that I can't speak to since we haven't gotten there yet! This certainly isn't invalidating anyone else's experience, we can just only truly speak from experience to things we've actually lived ourselves!
This is exactly right and so very important to a healthy relationship, especially within this type of dynamic.....my wife and I have a similar type of engagement in our D/S dynamic. Ty for sharing this
I wish this episode had aired months ago, but the wisdom you share is helping me understand and see my blindspots in relationship so I can show up better for myself AND for whoever shows up in my life
This was so interesting .So informative, so full of insight,understanding . For an individual to take notice of this information. Would be a complete game changer in any relationship. My thought is that if one wishes a D/s relationship by far, this is a very important tool that should be used by a true leader who is going to lead through the mine field of life.. Thank you, Andrew, for bringing this to light. Ana ☮️☯️⚧️
New to this "lifestyle' i feel ive always been drawn to be submissive however ive had lots of men be more abusive in my life which makes kt difficult to trust...i crave letting go of this self imposed prison of control ive created. Qny tips how to start the process of self love and self trust?
Nice to see you 2 in the right dynamics and not slanted or such. A good chunk of people try to make it look bad. When if they knew. They would know better. 9:17 She put it good. One thing people miss is submisive submits to a person and not everyone. The one I was with and the ones I have been around are not a pushover like some think. One question I would ask is. Do you do things like hand signals or such. Communicating with each other in ways others may miss even if seen. One thing wild to me is. A good chunk of dominant and submisive or master slave. Is not what people think. The normal looks with so many is nice to see. 38:15 lol never heard topping from the bottom. But did use the term trying to lead from below. Just different social circles. Nice to see another healthy couple and dispeling the bad sterio types some try to push. 53:26 shit tests. We all get them at times. I think Mina got a kick out of how it didn't phase me at times and not just seeing through it, but guiding down a path with little thought on it. The longer she new me the less it was shit testing as much as a laugh or such. Good luck out there and again nice to see a healthy normal dom/sub long term relationship.
G'Day, I loved this episode, so much truth in everything. A couple of quotable quotes that I have taken away "Set yourself up for success", "She can't surrender into a void". The idea of creating your values lists is awesome. I did this sort of stuff a very long time ago, and lost the habit. I am re-learning and re-doing my values, my goals, my needs and my expectations. I too have the shopping lists and am trying to systemize my life. One way I'm systematizing is using a program called logseq where I write everything down, set scheduled reminders, household maintenance routines, notes for youtube clips like this one, save information even like who the service providers for my house are and my current household inventory with links to receipts.
Your course is changing my life for the better. It's helping me get clarity on how I show up. Ironically I was in a relationship when I started it and that ended a bit after, but in part I think it ended because I was doing work to grow and that changed the relationship. I am so grateful for your work and everything you share.
When people start working on themselves, they find growth and strength within themselves. If one works on growing, and your partner doesn't. You soon find yourself moving on with your life This has been my experience with life. Ana ☯️☮️
Once again, Andrew & Dawn inspire by showing how clam can lead to insight within a relationship. When one can stay in the realm of calm.Their energy is positive, and it also can become Telepellic between themselves.I have found this to be true in my relationship. Also, one's Ora is present to be received When a relationship has this, it is felt no matter where you are. It sticks out in a crowd Ana ☮️☯️
Well said, I think it’s important to take the why in consideration and act accordingly depending on how the submissive person is. Because if a Dominant handles this in the wrong way it can destroy the relationship. That being said I don’t understand how can you do d/s with someone you aren’t seriously committed to like I just can’t wrap my mind around it, the level of trust needed is just something I couldn’t possibly give to anyone else. And it made our bond so much deeper and meaningful. ❤
There has to be heart present. It's love, on some level, even if you're not "in love". There has to be love in the heart of the Dominant...it's what keeps Dominance from becoming tyranny.
This is the difference in your concept of D/s, then old school BDSM how to remind a submissive of their place by making a stern statement of correction . Then, the action of physical discipline to put the submissive back in their place. If Consensual. Ana ☯️☮️⚧️
Some people are traumatized by physical discipline so it might have the opposite effect. If you start resenting your partner it’s going to go seriously downhill. Andrew is right when he says that it’s important to identify the cause before taking action, there is no one size fits all it can’t be because we are all different and we all have different bagage. Old isn’t always best.
This episode was full of wisdom, knowledge, and just plain common sense . Men with the ability of true leadership should take the value of this message of wisdom to heart. It is one of the keys to a loving, caring and supportive D/s relationship. Ana ☮️☯️⚧️
The manipulation question was good. I see manipulation as primarily benefitting the one doing the manipulating. Leading is for the benefit of the one being lead. I know if I react in fear that it's probably an area I need to be lead in.
the dom sub dynamic is working with the 'other' in the relationship in order to heal the feminine or masculine shadow materials in the self. Andrew is working on healing his feminine through Dawn (control of the shadow feminine in his self) and Dawn is working on healing her masculine self through Andrew. it's so great!! Dawn didn't dream so her masculine creativity is coming through Andrew. Andrew felt out of control of his emotional feminine side but can free it through Dawn
I’m curious where the line is for you two between D/s and M/s. In my lived experience & witnessing my peers in the lifestyle, I would call your dynamic M/s. 😃
It’s a line we don’t discuss intentionally, because everyone has to decide that for themselves. And as for us, we will share that when Sir decides the time is right ❤️
When a couple so willingly works for a permanent commitment.That is to be Cherished I'm blessed in my life to have such a relationship .We only grow deeper in our love as time passes. Ana ☯️☮️⚧️
