00:49- About Tickle.Life
- Tickle.Life is creating the pleasure stack of the world.
- We intend to not just normalize conversations around health and wellbeing.
- We, in fact, want to become a safe and responsible platform that furthers industry interests and sensitizes society about sexual needs and possibilities.
03:19- Challenges and learnings while building Tickle.Life
- When I started and wanted to talk to people, I could not find anyone.
- I am nobody in the profession of sexuality. This is a roadblock because the ecosystem of the people who are working in the sexuality sector is fragmented.
- When I talk about how my platform is into sexuality, the first thought a lot of people get is there are going to be naked pictures, and it is going to be explicit. They do not understand that we are encountering this problem from a different angle.
14:34- Difference in sexual wellness globally as compared to India
- Globally it is more evolved, but when I talk about evolution I am talking more from the awareness point of view.
- In India, we are still struggling to figure out and understand what is needed.
