In this thought-provoking episode of Pleasure Principles, guest host Sana sits down with Stefan, founder of MindsetExplained.com, to unpack the transformative power of the Wheel of Consent. Together, they explore how consent is far more than just a “yes” or “no”—it’s a tool for building self-trust, emotional clarity, and healthier boundaries. Stefan shares his personal journey of shifting from over-giving to learning how to receive, insights on how the Wheel can help people-pleasers reclaim their agency, and simple exercises to start setting authentic boundaries in everyday life. A must-listen for anyone seeking emotional safety, deeper intimacy, or better relationship dynamics.

Key Takeaways:
The Wheel of Consent reveals four core dynamics: giving, receiving, taking, and allowing.
Boundaries start with knowing your inner “yes” and “no.”
People-pleasing often stems from a fear of rejection and a need for validation.
Small experiments—like pausing to receive without giving back—can build stronger emotional self-awareness.
Authenticity requires tuning into your body’s signals and learning to honor them in relationships.
