Rahi Chun and Ariel Szabo are somatic sex educators, sexological bodyworkers, and co-creators of Divine Union For Lovers, bringing 30+ years of combined expertise in genital de-armoring, somatic trauma repair, and erotic attunement to help couples access the depth of connection their bodies are actually capable of.

We talk about what happens when sexuality gets divorced from the sacred. About the difference between objectification and genuine attraction — and how each one feels in the body. About how our attachment wounds and nervous system patterns show up in our most intimate moments long before we ever get to lovemaking.
