Meet Love Atiya

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Love Atiya. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Hi Love Atiya, so happy to have you on the platform and I think our readers are in for a treat because you’ve got such an interesting story and so much insight and wisdom. So, let’s start with a topic that is relevant to everyone, regardless of industry etc. What do you do for self-care and how has it impacted you?

I love the topic of self care because as much as we talk about it, it can still be considered so “taboo”.

How dare you take care of yourself before someone else?! How dare you give yourself 30 minutes out of the day to solely focus on your well-being?! These are thoughts that go through people’s minds daily while they struggle with feeling like they deserve to be cared for by themselves.

I know this because I was one of the people who struggled with this self care guilt.

It wasn’t until I birthed my self care company Ethereal By Love Atiya where I realized just how easy self care could be if the proper tools are provided.

My self care routine went from me just meditating and writing, to me doing that PLUS creating a dope skin care routine with my Rhassoul Clay and Turmeric Detoxifying Mask, my Rose Water Love Mist and my Ethereal Illuminating Healing Serum!

I am a very pleasure positive person and one day it clicked that self care and self pleasure could go hand in hand! Self pleasure is self care.

Self pleasure can literally heal ailments and make you feel better than when you started, just like self care! It’s simply a different form of caring for you.

That’s when Ethereal X was born!

Ethereal X is my sexual wellness company which focuses on ending the shame and stigma surrounding self love, self care, intimacy, sex and pleasure!

When I neglect myself, my self care, my emotions and my sexual wellness I feel heavy, sad, unmotivated and sometimes depressed.

Creating the tools to combat this feeling while also providing a safe space for the sexually and those curious about “self” has been a wonderful journey to say the least.

Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?

Ethereal X is a sexual wellness company that focuses on creating a safe space for the sexually curious.

Our motto is “it’s more than an orgasm, it’s a movement”

Everytime you feel pleasure, you are literally honoring yourself and your ancestors who had this right ripped away from them.

Have you ever wondered why the pleasure of people with a Vulva is SO incredibly intimidating to society? Have you ever wondered why becoming sexually liberated is considered so taboo in the year of 2024?!?!

Ethereal X is here to teach you WHY the world is like this and HOW we can find our power again.

Although we are a sexual wellness company focusing on the pleasure for ALL, we do believe that women should c*m first since our pleasure has been marginalized for centuries.

At Ethereal X we believe it is extremely important to provide a safe space and explore conversations that are often considered taboo. The educational component of Ethereal X focuses on topics that heavily affects many communities such as:

Consent
Sexual Assault
Birth Control
Safe Sex
STI’s
Painful Sex
& MORE

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

The three most important qualities that have really created the foundation of helping Ethereal X thrive have been:

Authenticity
Compassion
& Determination

How would you spend the next decade if you somehow knew that it was your last?

Currently the biggest challenge is raising money for the launch of my company. I funded my self care company Ethereal By Love Atiya with the savings from a small business I retired from when I was 13 (crazy I know!)

I created a Kickstarted but my campaign was declined because Kickstarter is a more project based company (I’ll be back when it’s time to launch my own original sex toy)

I moved onto Indigogo and then had some difficulties behind the scenes and had to launch my campaign “late” (but not really late, maybe right on time.)

One thing I have learned is that as a business owner we can make up all the timelines we want but the universe and the business gods really already have this whole thing mapped out.

Now, my Indigogo crowdfunding campaign and my company Ethereal X will both launch on July 1st which is my Grandma Cookers birthday. This launch is a dedication to her.

If you’d like to join the journey or contribute you can check out my website loveatiya.com & if the campaign is over before you read this, you are welcome to sign up & support me on patreon!
