Les Chandelles: What It's Really Like Inside Paris's Exclusive Sex Club #424

Author: Stephanie Ganowski March 30, 2026 Duration: 51:53

In this episode, I'm taking you inside one of Paris's most talked-about and notoriously hard-to-get-into sex clubs: Les Chandelles (aka "The Candlesticks"). Andrew and I had been planning this Europe trip for a while, and visiting this club was on our list.

I share what it was actually like getting in (yes, the stilettos and suits are non-negotiable), the stark cultural differences between American and European sex clubs, and how the experience ended up being a sexy, fun, trust-building moment in our relationship.

I also get real about timing-  why my boyfriend and I waited until we were truly secure as a couple before exploring this kind of experience and why trying to use something like this to "fix" a relationship is often a recipe for disaster based on my professional opinion. Whether this is something you're curious about or just want to understand better, I hope this episode gives you an honest, thoughtful perspective into what a great first experience can look like!

Stephanie Ganowski brings over six years of one-on-one coaching experience and a psychology background into every conversation on What I Love About Sex. As a clinical sexologist, her work focuses specifically on men, though the insights resonate with anyone interested in the complexities of intimacy. The core idea here is refreshingly straightforward: to dismantle the anxiety and performance pressure that so often surrounds sex and replace it with a genuine sense of enjoyment and connection. You’ll hear practical, candid discussions about navigating what Stephanie terms "d*ck-related issues," which isn't just about physiology but the tangled web of confidence, expectation, and identity that can come with it. More than that, this podcast is a masterclass in communication, offering tangible skills for expressing desires and boundaries, ultimately helping listeners feel more in command of their own bodies and capable of deeper partnership. It’s a blend of education and empathetic coaching, rooted in real-world experience rather than abstract theory. By tackling topics often left unspoken with clarity and compassion, the podcast creates a space where learning about sexual well-being feels less like a clinical obligation and more like a personal breakthrough. Tune in for honest talk that bridges the gap between societal silence and a more fulfilling, pleasurable personal life.
