EP433 - Sexual Pleasure: Your Guide to Stronger Orgasms

Author: Dr. Nazanin Moali, Ph.D, Psychology of Sex | Couple Therapy | Sex Education April 8, 2025 Duration: 40:03

Welcome to Episode 433 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I'm excited to be joined by Anna Lee, the CEO and co-founder of Lioness, who speaks to me about the intersection of pleasure, science, and innovation - and how we can redefine the way we understand and experience orgasms.


In this episode, Anna shares her fascinating journey from working in big tech to creating Lioness, a company rooted in data-driven pleasure and sexual wellness. We dive into how her cultural upbringing shaped her early relationship with sexuality and how she turned a personal healing journey into a revolutionary tool that helps people explore their bodies. 


Anna Lee is the co-founder and CEO of Lioness, the startup that built the world’s first and only smart vibrator that helps improves sexual pleasure through biofeedback orgasm data and research. Anna was previously a mechanical engineer at Amazon, launching the Amazon Dash Button and the Kindle Voyage. She was most recently named one of Newsweek’s 10 Innovators Disrupting Healthcare as well as Forbes 30 Under 30. Realizing the underrepresentation of women engineers in sextech and the lack of research, Anna has made it a mission to expand understanding and research in sexual pleasure.

·      Anna Lee’s Journey From Tech to Pleasure Innovation

·      How Lioness Tracks and Visualizes Orgasm Patterns

·      The Role of Engineering in Designing for Female Pleasure
