In this episode, Eric & Andrew discuss Eric’s recent surfing accident, opening a raw and honest conversation about the depth of trust required from Dominants in D/s relationships. Together, Andrew and Eric explore why true trustworthiness goes far beyond the basics—it’s about ensuring our submissives feel safe to surrender on every level.

They discuss the importance of self-care as a reflection of respect not only for ourselves but also for our partners and the relationship dynamic. When a Dominant neglects his own well-being, it can undermine the trust a submissive needs to fully let go, knowing he’ll be there to support and protect her.

The conversation also delves into how we build trust through the way we respond to challenges and why it can be especially difficult for Dominant men to ask for help. This is the most vulnerable discussion Andrew and Eric have ever shared, offering deep insights on trust, self-respect, and responsibility in Dominance.
