Author: Dr. Nazanin Moali, Ph.D, Psychology of Sex | Couple Therapy | Sex Education October 21, 2025 Duration: 34:03

Welcome to Episode 461 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I’m excited to be joined by Alicia Sinclair a renowned sex coach and founder of several leading sexual wellness brands, including B Vibe and Le Wand. 


Alicia and I explore how sex toys can be a tool for enhancing both psychological and physical arousal, whether through role play, sensation play, or simply adding novelty to the bedroom. We also unpack the common fears and misconceptions couples have when introducing toys into their relationship, and how to approach these conversations with openness and curiosity rather than insecurity.


Alicia is a multi-award-winning Sex Tech CEO, founder, and renowned sex coach. She brings over two decades of expertise in designing innovative products, leading transformative training programs, and advocating for sex positivity.


Her mission is to champion sexual wellness as a vital part of a healthy lifestyle, empowering people to explore pleasure without shame. Prior to founding her three brands, Alicia was the VP of worldwide sales and business development at a luxury intimate wellness brand, where she created and developed a sex education boot-camp to help educate retailers, and worked with the Dept. of Justice to help the FBI develop communication channels between the government and the adult industry as part of the Child Protection & Obscenity Enforcement Act.
