About The Speakers:
Nicole Daedone, an innovative thinker and trailblazer, is passionate about exploring and questioning life’s truths and transforming discarded ideas into art. A graduate of San Francisco State University, her studies centered around semantics and gender communication. Before her groundbreaking work in intimacy and sexuality, she co-founded the avant-garde 111 Minna Gallery in San Francisco. However, Daedone is best known as the founder of OneTaste, a platform she established to rekindle our connection with intimacy, sexuality, and each other. Here, she developed a contemplative discipline around Orgasmic Meditation (OM), which has sparked substantial research into the intersection of sexuality and human flourishing, with science proving OM’s significant impact on emotional health and inducing transcendental experiences. Her work has been featured widely, including in The New York Times and on ABC News Nightline, and she is the author of several National Bestselling books.

With a diverse background in Women’s Studies, Psychology, and Writing, she previously served as a Program Director and Instructor at Jewel Heart Tibetan Buddhist Learning Center.
