Episode Description: In this episode, Mx Dizzy and Marquis Pup Rekkr sit down with Aidan, a passionate researcher, educator, and advocate at the intersection of kink, BDSM, and trauma awareness and his partner Charlie. Aidan and Charlie share their personal journeys into understanding and managing conflict, and how their various neurodiversity affect the conflict and resolution thereof.
