Have you ever let your tongue finish the dance that your ass began? Podcaster & Sex and Intimacy coach Leah Carey has never believed that great sex was something she deserved, but as she begins to seek out sensual, kinky live events in her local community, she meets a man who makes her feel safe enough to try new things. Together, they set a boundary and WOW, who knew it could be so hot to have someone tell you No when you begged for it? And the time is now: Pitch Dixie your true story for our just announced East Coast Tour dates. Are you ready to get onstage (and get a standing ovation!) in 2024?   Song: ‘All the Good Girls Go To Hell' (Billie Eilish)   Submission l BDSM l Sensual l Food Play l Boundaries l Massage a Trois  | Erotic Massage l Sex Positive l Good Girl l Fantasies l Older Man l Masculine Energy l Obey l Discipline | Celibate l Sexual Awakening l Triad l Energy Exchange l Coconut Oil I Confined Space l Massage Table l Ass to Ass Flirtation l Sex Positive Portland l Blindfold l Chocolate l Dominant l Kissing l Negotiation l PIV l P/V l Intercourse | Begging l Multiple Orgasms l First Date l Condoms l Afterglow l Hair Pulling l Control l Expansive l Brat Play l Right or Wrong l Pleasure l   About our Storyteller:   Leah Carey is a Sex and Intimacy coach and the host of the podcast “Good Girls Talk About Sex.” This work was not an obvious life choice for Leah.  Growing up with an abusive father, she learned to be a VERY “good girl,” which translated into significant sexual repression as an adult. Always convinced that she was the problem – not pretty enough, smart enough, or sexually skilled enough - she dreamed of great sex but assumed she would never experience it. At age 43, life threw Leah an opportunity to challenge her old beliefs and finally move her beyond the mythology of the “Good Girl.”   Listen to the Good Girls Talk About Sex podcast and learn more at www.LeahCarey.com   Episode links: Needle Play Acupuncture: Needle Play Acupuncture was made by and for the Kink, Leather, and LGBTQIA+ communities.

See Full Show Notes here: https://growensemble.com/miles-4-migrants-andy-freedman/ Andy Freedman is the co-founder and managing director of Miles4Migrants, a nonprofit that uses donated airline miles to unite separated refugees and immigrant families. Since their inception in 2016, they’ve flown over 1,800 people, reunited 600+ families, and redeemed over 27 million frequent flyer miles, the equivalent of over $700,000 in cash value. In 2019 alone, they’ve flown nearly 400 individuals internationally, and with the worsening of the U.S. border crisis this last year, they’ve flown over 700 individuals within the United States. They certainly are not slowing the pace, as they’ve recently partnered with United Airlines for a Miles on a Mission campaign, where they were tasked with raising 5 million frequent flyer miles in 28 days. As of November 15, they hit that goal.  What’s incredibly valuable about Andy and Miles4Migrants’ story is the power of volunteerism and how it really takes a village. Andy and his two co-founders all currently volunteer their time to manage their organization. All work day jobs and are actively engaged husbands and fathers in addition to running this organization. While they finally were able to hire paid staff this year, they also relied on the power and passion of volunteers in a rapid period of growth after a tweet mentioning their work went viral last year. Learning more about how this organization was run without paid staff for several years is inspirational for those just starting up. There are two fascinating topics of conversation in this episode. The first is the opportunity to learn and understand more about the needs of these refugees and asylum seekers. In efforts to put into perspective how impactful a small action like these airline miles can be in making such a significant life-changing impact. On the other side, following the trajectory of Miles4Migrants can help you visualize the process of identifying a problem in a population you’d like to serve and taking it from an idea to a full-blown execution.

Shownotes: If you’re a frequent flyer like me, you probably get asked how many miles you have by now every single time. As a matter of fact, if we were given a dollar every time someone tells us how much miles we’ve earned, we’d be able to afford a roundtrip ticket. So today, I’d like to debunk all the myths that people have not only about frequent travelers but also for airline miles! Hello and welcome to the Traveling Introvert. Today is a question I get asked a lot, or assumed a lot, is well, you travel so much, you must have so many miles stacked up. And I think this is a case of people know that that's a thing, but people don't really know how it works and so that's what they say. And it generally works. Yes, of course you do get miles, but now, it's that much harder to get miles and it's not miles per miles you actually travel. So that's the first myth. A lot of people think that you get back in mythical miles currency, the amount of miles you actually travel per year. And that would be wonderful. Maybe. But that is not the case. A lot of the times you will get, it's based on how much money you spend times maybe the miles or depending on the airline, how they do it. Things that don't get taken into consideration is the amount of money you pay for taxes, and when you buy a plane ticket, you don't realizes sometimes that there is a tax for leaving the country, a tax for entering a country, a TSA tax, an airport tax. There's all sorts of other little taxes that get put in, which might even make it more than half of your actual plane ticket price. So that's one thing. Then there's the fact that most of the time, how many miles you earn might be linked to the airline that you're with. Also might be linked to which credit card you might use. In fact, it is better if you have a credit card, or you have to spend a certain amount of money with some airlines. Yes, you might have a case amount of air miles, but that doesn't get you status, and status is the important thing. Status is the thing that can get you access to lounges, can get you access to boarding first, can get you extra luggage allowance. These are things that are very helpful. But sometimes you can't get them if you don't have the credit card, 'cause you just can't spend the money, or -- here's the other thing -- if you work for a company and that company is buying your ticket, sometimes you don't have a choice of who you get to fly with and therefore you don't have a choice of where the miles go. So just because someone is traveling a lot doesn't mean they're automatically racking up a bunch of miles. What if they're buying the cheapest tickets? And now, there are definitely tickets where you don't get miles. You're just lucky you get a seat. You might not even get luggage. You get hand luggage, not necessarily carry-on. It might just be a personal item and you have to pay extra for everything else. So, I always found it really interesting, oh, you must have racked up a bunch of miles. And I look at my miles and I'm like, I've got 12,000 miles. It's very interesting. The other thing is okay, so I might have miles, but then how do I spend them? I have a friend right now, she says I have these miles, I've got them with Copper Airlines which, y'know, is fine. But she's looking and she's like, I wanna spend these miles but there's nowhere I can go that the miles will cover. And we've just had a conversation recently, and she's like, the most I can do is go from Mexico City to Panama City, one way. And it costs me far more money to take a one-way ticket back than it would just by return. So she can't use the miles. Some miles have expiration dates. It takes a lot of miles. So, for example, some airlines definitely have sort of a 32,000 mile minimum for you to get a flight, one flight, somewhere, or 17,000 miles. And to get that 17,000 miles, you can't just fly 17,000 miles, you actually have to fly more than that to get there, and sometimes you can have an accelerator, sometimes you can buy the miles outright. But generally, mile per dollar or cent or whatever doesn't work out the same way. So, yes, people might travel a lot. Doesn't necessarily they have miles racked up, and even if they do, it doesn't mean it's really easy to spend them. So don't necessarily be envious and assume that miles is the thing. Now, some people are super into the mileage game. And it's great. But it's not necessarily the miles that you get with staying with an airline, it's the loyalty and the parks you may or may not get. Now some airlines have the same perks if you just get their card, their credit card. Not everyone can get a credit card. And I'll be honest, the credit card game is mainly restricted to the United States. And so, there's the rest of the world out there that can't play the game in the same way. It's fairly interesting. So when people say oh, you must have a lot of miles racked up. Yeah, no, not really. I looked and I don't really spend my miles that often. I tend to save my miles for emergencies. If I have a friend who's sick and I have to go in an emergency, I would use miles, for example. But yeah, no, I don't have a bunch of miles racked up. If someone wants to donate miles to me, I will take them. My airline of choice is United, but I will take any miles in Star Alliance or with Delta, 'cause Delta miles never expire. Alright, thank you for listening. This is Janice from the Career Introvert looking forward to helping you with your career and your business out in line with your introversion.

In this episode, Becky talks with coworking consultant and founder of coworkaholic.com, Mike LaRosa, who also happens to be an expert on making the most of earning and spending airline miles earned through strategic spending on credit cards. Mike describes growing up in Washington D.C. doing all the things that your teachers tell you to achieve the American dream and then explains how the coworking industry saved his life, after discovering that his post-college job as an events manager in the corporate world was not for him. I hope you enjoy this interview with Mike from a rooftop in India at the end of the Rickshaw Challenge in January 2019 (more on that later)!

Erik Paquet founded Abroaders with the mission to help other travelers have the freedom to roam the globe at a tiny fraction of the normal cost. Erik began learning about earning and using points in 2008 when he got his first ever signup bonus of 75,000 American miles. Since then, he has earned and redeemed more than 2.5 million frequent flyer miles. When he isn’t working, Erik is usually out exploring, meeting new people and trying to learn something new. For him, “the highlight of travel is the people you connect with, and the experiences they can open up if you keep an open perspective.” Get the full shownotes on the Under30Experiences Blog.

Where We Roam- After a series of life events, Scott and Emily kinda felt they were being pushed toward traveling in a big way. They came up with the idea to spend 12 months in 12 countries, wanting to live like a native of that country. Curious to explore the world and learn what it would be like to live in the country and not just "tour" it. They said it was enlightening to see how others live and enjoy the small details in everyday life while living out of 36 Liter backpacks. However, right before they left on the trip they got pregnant. So they pushed off the trip just until after the baby was born and then head out!! They relied hugely on Airline Miles and ending up flying all their major flights with points they had earned

Jubal poses as an airline customer service employee, and he's calling a guy who flies around a lot for business. Because apparently, the airline got reports of some BAD BEHAVIOR after one of his flights. And now, there are going to be some consequences. Listen in the PHONE TAP!

What's the point of accruing airline miles if you can't even use them?   If you've ever tried to use airline miles to book a flight, then you know how difficult it can be. But what if you were able to use airline miles for something other than air travel?    United Airlines is partnering with their terminal in Newark to offer a new program where customers can use their United miles to pay for food and beverages. This sounds like a brilliant idea given the amount of miles that people have, but never get to spend.    Now, if they could tie this into Apple Pay, I'd be all over it!    Is there something else besides actual flights that you'd use airline miles to pay for?

Dave Danzeiser shares with us how he was able to accomplish all of this by earning enough airline miles to purchase the ticket, without flying. He takes us step by step through the process of planning a RTW trip, figuring out how many miles it will take, earning the miles without flying, and then booking the ticket to make it all come to fruition. We cover a lot of information and tools in this episode and any links and resources are listed in the show notes below.
