Mari Mirenda

Mari is a passionate advocate for female sexual empowerment and an active voice in the sex-positive movement. Born and raised in sunny southern Italy, she completed part of her studies in Rome before moving to London 14 years ago. After a thriving career in the travel industry, Mari embraced the opportunity to align her professional and personal passions during the pandemic.

​

She founded The Lust Supper (TLS), a multi-sensorial journey to intimacy for individuals and couples. Through TLS, Mari integrates body empowerment, sensuality, and sexual expression, creating a space to explore desires and fantasies free from guilt or societal judgment. Alongside TLS, Mari works as a holistic therapist, guiding women and couples to connect with their body, mind, and soul.

​

Mari is currently pursuing academic research at London University, focusing on women's sexual agency and autonomy in erotic spaces. Her work examines the impact of gender roles, power dynamics, and emotional factors like guilt and shame on women’s sexual experiences and self-expression. Inspired by the many women she has met during her travels and feminist icons like Simone de Beauvoir, Mari is committed to fostering sexual empowerment and challenging societal norms.

​

On her personal journey of mindfulness and profound awareness of her inner sexual energy, Mari aims to share this exploration with other women and couples, creating spaces for growth, intimacy, and empowerment.

When she’s not working or researching, Mari finds joy in cooking, baking, traveling, salsa dancing, and enjoying a good gin and tonic with friends.
