Publisher's Summary

From Gwyneth Paltrow’s modern lifestyle brand goop comes the Audible Original The goop Pursuit, a four-part audio series taking listeners on an intimate journey of learning and unlearning.

“Leaning into Pleasure”

After her conversation with goop founder and CEO Gwyneth Paltrow, Penda N’diaye speaks with three women of different ages about being “detectives of their own pleasure”. N’diaye, who is the founder of Pro Hoe, a brand that focuses on sexual liberation in Black and Brown communities, explores the different ways we can experience pleasure. And she searches for answers to these questions: Why can satisfying sex be difficult to come by? How do we open up to exploring and expressing our desires? What can we look forward to along the way?

This episode contains mature themes and listener discretion is advised.

makes me want to throw up

degenerate content. goes against every atom in me. the author thinks that it's not natural to feel shame and that you should cancel it. cancel shame? what and become an animal too? i never rate books but this i couldn't let it pass. absolutely awful thinking. the work of the devil if you ask me. however i do believe in pleasure

Horrible and oh so WOKE

Terrible just terrible that’s all I can say about this ridiculous I don’t know what it is.

Bold and Daring

A bold and daring discussion especially for women of my generation (45+). While shocking on one level, it is also liberating to see young people exploring their sexuality in a way that women of my generation would never have dared!!
A must listen for everyone.

A much needed conversation

I found this to be thought provoking and rich with inquiry with a topic that needs to be examined.

There were some segments that resonated with me more than others- but I walked away pondering new questions for myself and my role as a parent in navigating this topic with my children.

Love it

Super relevant and gained a lot from all speakers on the podcast. Wanted to keep listening and was super engaged.

Eye opening and a relief to not feel alone...

It's very nice to not feel alone in topics that just don't get discussed. While I'm pretty vocal about sex in general, there's certainly things I don't talk about with anyone outside my brain. On to episode 2.

Refreshingly Open and Candid

Great to hear women/humans talk about pleasure in empowering ways. Looking forward to hearing more.

Great content to continue expanding

Great to listen to different perspectives. Allowed me not tu judge me or other. To increase my curiosity.

Wonderful for anyone seeking more connection

This book was empowering and beautifully produced. Thank you for creating it. The narrator and all the stories from women in the journey will make many feel less alone. 💜

I feel that the world is awakened and evolving towards equality

The awareness of self, surroundings, and the world is evolving but that most families have not raised their children to educate them about what are feelings - good or bad and what’s okay and what’s not. Then when go to school in the 4th grade - girls and boys are placed into separate rooms to be shown a movie about boys and girls changes and body parts and told that these “changes “ are normal as we are starting to grow into adolescence and adulthood. That’s all we learned. No information ever again. Church also teaches us to only have sex once you are married and never touch peri area. Sex only to have babies. Now finally our children are adults and had to learn on their own also- from one generation to the next. It is great to open our eyes and use plus enjoy the senses that we’re given to us.
