This podcast is now the subject of a legal complaint by Nicole Daedone, Rachel Cherwitz, OneTaste Incorporated, the Institute of OM LLC and OM IP Co.

Nicole Daedone, the charismatic co-founder of wellness company One Taste believed that orgasm would one day sit alongside yoga and meditation as the self-care self-care practice for the modern empowered women.

Except that now the FBI is making enquiries in to One Taste over allegations including sex trafficking, prostitution and violations of labour law.

How did Orgasmic Meditation go from hippy beginnings to a sleek, million-dollar operation?

How did this wellness practise – touted as the next big thing everywhere from Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop to the New York Times – lead to isolation, debt and abuse?

Why is women’s health and pain still not taken seriously by conventional medicine?

The Orgasm Cult is a story about people desperate for connection and how far they would go to find it.

Join Nastaran Tavakoli-Far as she investigates One Taste through exclusive interviews with former employees and asks big questions about the wellness industry.
