Founder of 'Orgasmic Meditation' Startup Indicted on Forced Labor Charges.

Nicole Daedone, the founder of OneTaste, a sexual wellness company that teaches “orgasmic meditation”, has been indicted on charges of running a cult-like conspiracy involving forced labor. Daedone and Rachel Cherwitz, the company’s former head of sales, are accused of inducing volunteers, contractors, and employees to incur debt to take courses that they claimed could heal sexual trauma and dysfunction. The defendants also subjected OneTaste members to surveillance in communal homes, instructed them to engage in sex acts for “freedom and enlightenment” and failed to pay promised wages. They both face a maximum of 20 years in prison if convicted.
