Tributes to Betty

Tributes to Betty

Published March 25, 2022

Many moons ago now, I knew I was done having kids. I was sad. I was lonely. I was rejecting myself and my body. I found Betty and Carlin on YouTube when I was trying to figure out if I would ever orgasm during partner sex. Betty helped me see that the art of self pleasure and acceptance was more important. She was radiant and forward and their Maiden and Crone partnership made me happy. She made me laugh while I learned to love my orgasm capabilities. Even in her death she reminded me to come back to myself. I am so appreciative of her and glad Carlin is continuing her work. Thank you Betty.
