Ayden Love is a total Love.

I met Ayden in my tattooing studio when a good friend of mine brought her to get tattooed by me. I put a matching set of tattoos on the two of them. One for "Daddy" and one for "babygirl".

And if you know me, you know how happy that made me.

I love ritual. I love relationships. I love overt power exchange. I love tattoos.

I asked Ayden to come on the podcast and tell me about their journey. And in the process we touched upon as much kink as I myself could handle on this here public forum, as well as ritualistic tattooing. We also talked about Ayden's dislike of eggs and therefore most breakfast dishes, how she got her formidable social media following while not being all that into social media, some of our favorite shows, and I even got some tips on guest spotting. And their small joy at the end of the episode gave me all sorts of happy fuzzy sensory memories.

Ayden works out of their own private studio in Durham, NC, and can be easily found on their website: http://www.thetinyfire.com/
