78. [From The Archives] Living a Tantric Life with Layla Martin

Why isn’t everyone using pleasure as a pathway to power? In this Best Of season finale of Why Isn’t Everyone Doing This?, Emily Fletcher sits down with her best friend and legendary Tantra teacher, Layla Martin—and this episode is pure magic.
