About this episode
The episode discusses the common advice of being a sub before becoming a Dom and explores its validity.
“If you want to be a good Dom, you should be a sub first.” You’ve heard it. A lot. In this episode, we’re unpacking where that advice comes from, what it gets right, and where it completely misses the mark. Because understanding your partner matters—but forcing yourself into a role that isn’t yours isn’t the answer. Let’s talk about what actually makes someone a better Dom.
