Sparks Between Us: Step Into The Comfort Inn

This new track of monthly Interintellect Salons by two secret ii hosts explores the varying levels of intimacy in sex and relationships.

Save the date: this track of ii Salons will run on the fourth Friday of every month. Step into the ii comfort inn for a cathartic conversation in vulnerability, intimacy, and sexuality.

In this introductory Salon we will be exploring the definition of intimacy in relation to our past & present, and in relation to ourselves & others. We will share stories from personal experiences, and discover the secret (maybe even forbidden) elements that make for a transcendental, intimate moment.

Can you feel intimate by yourself? Can an intimate moment be repeated? What are the milestones in intimacy? Can intimacy be experienced in one aspect and not another?

Bring with you your senses, courage, and an open mind. Homophobia, sexism, racism will not be tolerated in our discussions. 

This salon launches an ongoing series for connection-curious individuals on the fourth Friday of each month. Enter into a suspended ‘comfort inn’ to ask your burning questions in sex & relationships: We’ll explore ‘dark sides’, sexual chemistry, monogamy & polyamoury, kink & shame, the ‘fleeting lover concept’, and more.
