🍳 Food & Sex Podcast – Episode 1: Sexual Mayonnaise

A Body Curious Podcast with Jonn Close

Welcome to the first episode of Food & Sex, a Body Curious podcast series. I’m Jonn Close—somatic sex therapist, counsellor, and former international chef. In this unique series, I bring together my two great passions: food and sex.

In this debut episode, we explore mayonnaise as a surprisingly rich metaphor for intimacy, arousal, and connection. Like sex, making mayonnaise is all about timing, temperature, and trust—and when it breaks, it often reveals where things need attention.

🎙 In this episode:

  • Embodiment and intimacy

  • Somatic awareness and pacing

  • Arousal, trauma recovery & sexual reconnection

  • Shame, communication & play

  • How food can help us understand sexual energy and self-trust

This episode includes a live kitchen demo—whisk in hand—as I reflect on how touch, presence, and attention shape both culinary and intimate experiences.
