Increasing the world’s happiness quotient with Heather Montgomery
This is Soul Saturations, the podcast, a transformational container to activate the light within you. I'm Kendall Merritt, your host, and the founder of Soul Saturations. We are here to deeply connect with soul centered sensuality and sexuality in relationships, business, and life so you can access your power and remember your true presence.
Today we have have Heather Montgomery, the CEO and founder of pleazeme.com. Their mission is really to help people explore this area of their sexuality in a manner that honors, of course their own intimate journey and privacy on that journey being anonymous.
Heather: It's an anonymous site where you get to interact with other people without that prejudice of sight. It's really interesting when you get to meet people by reading their words, and interacting with amazing healers and channels and brands that have been serving the sex positive space, for a long time. Our mission is to increase the world's happiness quotient and we feel that when we each take on our own journey and take accountability, because happiness is a choice and joy is an emotion we get to choose to be in.
Heather: Some of us have had some traumas in the area of, of sex or we've been violated or been suppressed or haven't had the resources and, or I like to call it the permission, to focus on our own pleasure, especially as women. I feel that we've had less resources historically and, or had a different come from in society as it pertains to sex and sexuality. We're, we're just excited to be a platform where people have a voice, to be heard and that mission can be carried out and love and light...And we also have a big mission to, which is to protect the vulnerable and the innocent and create an environment where consensual sex is all that there is.

Memorable Moments:
- "What if we grew up knowing that our sexuality is sacred and it's this beautiful, magical, powerful tool" -Kendall
- "...its so vital for all people is to really start to communicate what feels good, what doesn't feel good? What do you want to explore? What don't you want to explore? And when we can start to give people the tools to explore that, then they become more confident and they become more empowered to say, yes." - Kendall
- " I think that that's a big piece, that people really feel that hot button, what sexuality is, well, if I'm not doing this right, I must be doing this wrong or this isn't good and then I'm innately bad. That's one of those fundamental challenges that we as human beings have to work through in our humanness is it may not be good or bad right or wrong. It may just be different than what we're used to or what we're used to experiencing." - Kendall
- "...I think the statistic is by the time you're 40, like 85% of women have experienced some kind of either nonconsensual sexual advances...and not that men can't be violated or young boys and girls, I'm just saying, the statistic is much higher for women...so how do we heal that part of ourselves so that we don't continue to attract more trauma right? Or create the belief that we're not enough, or that we're weak and vulnerable. And then what do we bring into our lives? Right. And so I think that it is a very power" - Heather
