Vex of Four Chambers - Burnout, Lactation and Leaning into Despair

Eva Oh visits Dubai and is reminded of her first trip there in a previous life before her career as a Dominatrix. A life that included research work in Afghanistan, time at the United Nations and perhaps a thread that is still very consistent. A thread of curiosity, naivety, fearlessness and navigating the edge of life to feel out what could be. Watch this #teakink episode for an insight into Eva’s life before becoming a Professional Mistress.
