BLOOM NEWS: Interview with CEO Luna Ray!
Bloom CEO Luna Ray shares her vision for Bloom Community on the Normalizing Non-Monogamy (NNM) podcast. She says, "Bloom's core distinction is that we lead with sex positive values and we aim to build a community around those values." Our partners at NNM also host regular Virtual Meet-and-Greets. The next one is this Friday, 12/17, 6-8pm PST. Join the Bloom event here!
