Hearts and Collars

When we started our power exchange relationship, we didn’t have many models for it. We didn’t know people in the lifestyle. We hadn’t tried this type of relationship before. We both came into it with emotional burdens and trauma. And in spite of that, we were able to consciously design a power exchange relationship that helps us both grow, brings us closer emotionally, helps us heal some of those hurts, and fulfills our deep desires.

The tools we share in this book are ones that have worked for us over the last twenty years. We hope some of them will help you avoid pitfalls we stumbled into. Some of them may be right for you, or for your partner(s), and some of them may not. Like going clothes shopping, we invite you to try everything on; and if it doesn’t fit, leave it on the rack.

If there’s one thing we hope you take away from this book, it’s this: whoever you are, whatever you’ve been through, you have the ability to reflect, and grow, and become the person you want to be. Although it does take work, unflinching honesty with yourself, and compatible partner(s), it is possible to create relationships that hold you up, and help you thrive. We did it. So can you.

Dan and dawn began their power exchange relationship in 2001. Since then, they have presented at hundreds of events, co-authored five books, and hosted over six hundred episodes of the Erotic Awakenings podcast. They were part of the team that created the Columbus Space, and they have served as co-producers of PXS (Power eXchange Summit) and BTL (Beyond the Love, a Polyamory Summit). Dan and dawn have been recognized as MAsT International Member’s Choice Presenters of the Year (2016); Great Lakes title holders (2010); and as featured educators on both Kink Academy and Creative Sexuality.

Lead Follow Love – The Book

Lead Follow Love is your invitation to be included in the private thoughts of two long-term Authority Transfer couples as they consider and explore a range of topics – from sexuality to sacrifice, from encouragement to disappointment.

Authority Transfer Relationships are a negotiated, consensual, non-egalitarian style of relationship. You might know it by a variety of other terms, like Power Exchange, Master/slave relationship, Dom/sub relationship, etc..

Lead Follow Love was written in a unique manner. The authors chose over two-dozen challenging and personal questions to explore. They sat down together for a series of writing sessions, each one with a 30-minute time limit. The essays you have in your hands have been lightly edited to remove any blatant spelling disasters and then ripped from their author’s clawing hands and dropped into a chapter. This book is a tapestry of perspectives that harmonize yet have counterpoint. These are the hardest topics the authors could find, the safest environment to explore them, the harshest time-limit to prevent taking the easy route – and they hope you will agree the result is beautiful.

so you can work side by side while reading the book.
