Have you ever wondered what actually happens in a sex therapist's office? Is sex therapy only for couples in crisis—or can it help anyone build healthier, more satisfying intimate relationships? This week on The Dildo Whisperer, I'm joined by AASECT Certified Sex Therapist Vanessa Cushing for an honest, insightful conversation about the challenges so many people face—but few feel comfortable talking about. From mismatched libidos and communication struggles to performance anxiety, body image, shame, and rebuilding intimacy, Vanessa shares practical advice for creating stronger connections both inside and outside the bedroom. We also explore why so many people wait years before asking for help, how our upbringing shapes our relationship with sex, and what it really takes to build confidence, improve communication, and embrace pleasure without guilt or judgment. Whether you're single, dating, married, or simply curious about how sex therapy works, this episode offers expert guidance, compassionate insights, and plenty of reassurance that you're not alone in the questions you have about intimacy. Join us for a thoughtful, sex-positive conversation that reminds us that great sex isn't about perfection—it's about communication, connection, curiosity, and giving yourself permission to keep learning.
Sexual intimacy can be a powerful source of connection in marriage, but shame, avoidance, unrealistic expectations, and differences in desire can quickly create distance. Licensed professional counselor and certified sex therapist Vanessa Cushing joins Dave and Liz to discuss desire discrepancy, performance anxiety, pornography, sexual trauma, and the importance of honest communication. Learn how couples can stop blaming each other, build emotional safety, and approach sexual intimacy as a team focused on connection rather than performance.The opinions, findings, conclusions, and recommendations expressed in this podcast do not necessarily reflect the views of the Utah Marriage Commission.Takeaway of the Day Vanessa Cushing: Talk to each other and stop blaming each other. Desire and intimacy improve when couples have hard conversations, approach challenges as a team, and consistently do the small things that strengthen connection. Liz Hale: Desire is a team effort. Sexual challenges are not simply one partner's problem, and understanding the deeper emotional or psychological factors behind sexual behaviors can help couples respond with greater compassion. Dave Schramm: Safety and connection are foundational to healthy sexual intimacy. Couples can strengthen their relationship by communicating openly, being vulnerable, and seeking professional help when challenges feel difficult to resolve alone.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Rory Johnston to the show. Rory Johnston is a Commodity Market Research Specializing in Oil and Gas. Johnston describes an unprecedented period of volatility in oil markets, where the supply-demand balance swung radically within a single month. Following a ceasefire in the Strait of Hormuz, a surge of previously stranded tankers created a temporary mini-glut, flipping market structures from severe backwardation into contango. However, this glut proved fleeting as inbound empty tankers, initially driven by the most risk-tolerant owners, have dried up, leaving Gulf loadings constrained by available shipping capacity. Consequently, supply is tightening aggressively again. The most significant factor absorbing the supply shock is China, which swung its crude imports down by five million barrels per day without clear economic damage domestically. Johnston explores speculative explanations, including massive refined product stock releases, a coal-to-petrochemical feedstock switch, or a geopolitical understanding with the US. He also suggests China may be using the crisis as a successful dry run for weathering a potential blockade in a Taiwan conflict scenario. This swing, totaling roughly half a billion barrels, dwarfs the collective releases from IEA member states. Beyond crude, the refined products market, particularly diesel, is critically tight. Diesel crack spreads have soared to staggering levels, driven by drone attacks damaging Russian refineries, prior damage in the Middle East, and China slashing product exports. Johnston clarifies that strategic petroleum reserves function as a supply boost, not passive inventory, and that operational tank minimums at hubs like Cushing primarily affect regional price differentials to discourage exports, not trigger infinite crude spikes. He concludes that the overriding vulnerability is refining capacity, which is easy to target and hard to defend, making North American facilities a potentially valuable geopolitical safe haven in the current drone warfare era.

Millions of people are looking into their phone cameras and wondering why their face suddenly appears puffier, rounder, or more tired. The internet calls it “cortisol face,” but the truth is more complicated: cortisol itself is essential for survival, and the real danger may be a stress rhythm that never properly switches off. In this episode, Dr. Josh Axe explains how poor sleep, blood-sugar instability, fluid retention, chronic inflammation, emotional overload, and disrupted hormone signaling can all change what you see in the mirror—and why creams and cosmetic treatments may never address the underlying cause. Learn the practical correction protocol designed to help restore your natural hormone rhythm, reduce the visible signs of stress, and address the problem beneath the surface.

Secretary Chris Wright is the Best Energy Secretary in the United States history, in my opinion, and today is a great example of that. His Department of Energy approval for the Aalo Atomics reactor start is huge for the United States. And on the other side of the Pond in the UK, you have the complete opposite, and you can see Ed Miliband banning North Sea oil production, but buying North Sea oil and gas from Norway. This is shades of Jennifer Granholm! We cover 10 Big stories today on the Energy News Beat Stand Up. 1. Advanced Nuclear Energy Approvals (Opening Story)The podcast leads with a major milestone: Secretary Chris Wright approved the Allo-X Critical Test Reactor to reach critical mass. This represents a landmark achievement for U.S. nuclear energy, with hopes to reach criticality before July 4th. The host also mentions other advanced reactors like Tetra's Mark Zero and Valar Atomics' high-temperature gas reactor reaching zero power criticality in Utah.2. Oil Market Volatility & Strait of Hormuz DisruptionsExtensive discussion of crude oil market fluctuations driven by geopolitical tensions. Jeff Curry (from CNBC) argues that recent price declines are temporary, with underlying market conditions remaining tight. The podcast covers:Previously trapped crude being released through the Strait of HormuzShipping risks and limited operational lanesTanker attacks and captains avoiding the straitPredictions of future price spikes due to depleted SPR and Cushing reserves3. Middle East Energy Politics & Supply RoutesSaudi Arabia resuming tanker loadings at Ras TanuraIraq reversing pipeline flows to route crude northward to TurkeyIran's declining relevance due to reduced transit feesQatar's LNG challenges and alternative routing around the Strait of Hormuz4. EU Methane Regulations & Energy SecuritySecretary Chris Wright and other officials warn that proposed EU methane regulations could disrupt European oil and gas supply. The host criticizes these regulations as a wealth transfer that increases consumer costs without climate benefits.5. UK Energy Policy CriticismEd Miliband (UK Energy Secretary) vetoed a proposal to increase North Sea oil and gas drilling, despite the UK still relying on 40% natural gas. The host criticizes this as economically counterproductive.6. Refining Economics & California's ImpactDiscussion of refining costs and how California's regulatory overreach creates massive price disparities:Texas refineries: $5/barrel to refine gasolineCalifornia refineries: $15/barrel to refine gasolineCalifornia drivers pay $2.16 more per gallon than TexasCalifornia must import 40-60% of gasoline from Asia7. AI Boom Driving Natural Gas DemandTennessee Valley Authority reports electrical demand is exceeding forecasts due to AI and hyperscaler data centers, forcing massive natural gas expansion. The host emphasizes natural gas won't disappear anytime soon.8. Grid Infrastructure CrisisNew York faces a tightening electricity supply as AI data centers and new manufacturing seek grid connections by 2030—equivalent to the load of an entire New York City. The host criticizes politicians for ignoring the need for 24/7 dispatchable power and the physics of AC grid requirements.9. Political Commentary & Election IntegrityThe host calls for the "Save America Act" to ensure legal registered voters in elections, criticizing Senator Thune and broader election integrity issues, particularly in California.The podcast weaves together energy market realities, geopolitical tensions, regulatory policy, and infrastructure challenges into a comprehensive view of current U.S. energy security concerns.1.Aalo-X Gets the Approval to Turn On the Aalo-X Critical Test Reactor Secretary Chris Wright Signs the Critical Notice – A Landmark Milestone for U.S. Advanced Nuclear and AI Power2.Jeff Currie: Oil Market in Surplus Today, But That Tells Us Nothing About Tomorrow3.Saudi Arabia Starts Loading Tankers at Ras Tanura's Sea Port4.Iraq Set to Accelerate Hormuz Bypass5.Iraq Cuts West Qurna/2 Output Under Force Majeure as Tankers Remain Unavailable6.U.S., Qatar, Nigeria, and Algeria Warn Proposed E.U.

It is a wild day on the Energy News Beat Stand Up.Make no mistake, time will tell if the Strait of Hormuz is open, but do not underestimate the importance that the Bank of London and Lloyds of London play in opening the Strait of Hormuz. They want the war to continue, and are not happy if the war ends.As we hit Operational Bottoms for oil storage in the US it is a real problem, and President Trump ran out of time. I think that he has a plan and will get it done, but it will be done after the midterms.President Trump at the G7 has had some major impacts on the news cycle.1. Cushing, Oklahoma Oil Storage Crisis (Top Story)The podcast opens with the critical issue that Cushing—the "pipeline crossroads of the world"—has hit operational tank bottoms with only ~21.64 million barrels of crude. This is a major concern because refineries may not be able to access the oil they need, and the situation could spike oil prices. Cushing is the primary delivery and pricing point for WTI (West Texas Intermediate) futures.2. Global Oil Market Dynamics & Geopolitical TensionsStrait of Hormuz concerns: 20% of the world's oil passes through this strait, creating vulnerability to disruptionsIran's actions: Iran has pulled the trigger on controlling the strait, prompting neighboring Gulf states to seek alternative routesTanker movements: Iranian super tankers are slipping through blockades, with 6 million barrels already moved (likely to China)3. UAE's Strategic Independence from Strait of HormuzThe UAE is accelerating plans to bypass the Strait of Hormuz entirely by expanding pipelines from 1.7 to over 5 million barrels per day, with potential floating LNG terminals planned for the Gulf of Oman.4. Alternative Pipeline InfrastructureSaudi Arabia's east-west pipeline to the Red Sea (pumping ~7 million barrels/day)Plans to bypass the Suez Canal through the MediterraneanIraq's threat to close the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, forcing reliance on pipelines5. Qatar's LNG Export RestartQatar is preparing to restart LNG exports with tankers already positioned, which is critical for Europe's natural gas supply (especially as they lag behind in summer refilling).6. U.S. Power Grid CrisisSevere equipment shortage with power transformer lead times reaching 128 weeks (2.5 years)Some special orders taking up to 4 yearsNew transformer facilities being built (Hitachi in Virginia by 2028, Siemens in North Carolina)Recommendation for homeowners to invest in solar panels and off-grid capabilities7. California Energy & Infrastructure ProblemsRefinery closures: Only 7 refineries remain in California; losing one would spike gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel pricesHigh-speed rail project: Ballooned from $9.9 billion to $231 billion with companies relocating to Morocco due to regulatory burdenPort congestion: LA and Long Beach ports handling massive container volumes8. Oil Price ForecastsMorgan Stanley lowered Brent crude forecasts to $90 in Q3 and $80 in Q4Current prices: WTI at ~$76-77, Brent at ~$79.58, Natural gas at $3.169. AI & Grid InfrastructureDiscussion of potential AI bubble concerns and the need for grid validation tools before implementation.10. U.S. Reshoring & Industrial RecoveryThe Trump administration is working to reverse decades of intentional deindustrialization, though the process faces challenges.The podcast emphasizes that energy markets are at critical junctures with geopolitical tensions, infrastructure constraints, and strategic repositioning reshaping global oil and gas flows.1.Cushing, Oklahoma Oil Storage Hits Tank Bottom: Implications for Energy Markets, Consumers, and Investors2.Pain at the Pump: Can It Heal or Curse the Trump Administration?3.UAE is moving on plans to never use the Strait of Hormuz4.Qatar Returns Tankers in Preparation for Restarting LNG Exports5.Iranian Supertanker Slips Out of Chabahar, Crossing US Blockade as Tehran Moves Oil Ahead of Friday Deal Approvals6.Qatar Plans to Rapidly Restart LNG Output After Hormuz Opens – How will this impact Europe?7.Banks Slash Oil Price Forecasts After U.S.-Iran Breakthrough8.US Grid Equipment Shortage Deepens Impacting Repairs and New Installations9.Another California refinery closure will threaten national and global economies10.California High-Speed Rail project soars to $231 Billion – “We left to work in Morocco as it is a better work enviornment”Check out the Energy News Beat SubStack https://theenergynewsbeat.substack.com/A shout-out to Steve Reese and the Reese Energy Consulting group for sponsoring the Podcast https://reeseenergyconsulting.com/.Data2 if you have any business systems, can you trust A?

Face à un danger, le corps libère deux hormones pour répondre au stress : l'adrénaline pour réagir immédiatement, le cortisol pour prolonger l'effet. Présent naturellement dans le corps, le cortisol joue un rôle important dans la régulation du stress, du métabolisme, du système immunitaire et de la pression artérielle. Aujourd'hui, on l'accuse d'être responsable de la prise de poids, de fatigue chronique, de problèmes digestifs, de troubles du sommeil... Depuis quelques années, le cortisol, surnommé l'hormone du stress, est accusé de tous les maux sur les réseaux sociaux : fatigue, migraines, insomnies, acné, surpoids, troubles digestifs, visage rond ou encore cheveux plats... Et pourtant, le cortisol joue un rôle essentiel dans l'organisme, dès la formation du fœtus et tout au long de la vie (régulation du stress, du métabolisme, du système immunitaire et de la pression artérielle). Des troubles très rares Des taux anormaux de cortisol peuvent, il est vrai, entraîner des pathologies comme le syndrome de Cushing en cas d'excès ou la maladie d'Addison en cas de déficit. Mais ces troubles sont rarissimes. Et seul un médecin peut les prendre en charge. Le cortisol est-il un ennemi ou un allié ? Que dit réellement la science sur cette hormone du stress ? Avec : Dr Marie-Pierre Moisan, neuroendocrinologue et directrice de recherche à l'INRAE (Institut National de Recherche pour l'Agriculture, l'Alimentation et l'Environnement).

The U.S. Senate has yet to take action on allowing E-15 use year round across the nation. It's a frustrating spot for Wisconsin biofuels facilities to be in. Erik Huschitt, General Manager at Badger State Ethanol in Monroe, and current President of the WI Biofuels Association feels it. He tells Pam Jahnke that "big oil" is actually on E-15's side in this debate. The problem, he says, is a small group of midsized refiners that have been getting a lot of benefits from the current system. Huschitt notes that consumers are on board, big oil is in support, but the lobbying arm of those midsized refiners is stopping any forward progress in D.C. Gorgeous weekend on the way for Wisconsin. The only thing missing is a little rain to keep coaxing crops along. Stu Muck gives us the warm, dry details through Monday. The weather this spring has come in fits and spurts for livestock owners. Kiley Allan finds out that horse owners need to exercise a little caution introducing horses to the spring grass that has accelerated in growth lately. Dr. Lisa Neeson, equine vet at Irongate Equine Clinic, says that horse with Cushing's, Equine Metabolic Syndrome, or those carrying extra weight could be at risk. She says putting horses out on pasture for just 30-60 minutes at time is smart. She also suggested those visits happen between 10 a.m. - and 3 p.m. when sugar levels in grasses are lower. When consumers pick up a package of beef at the store, they may not understand everything that influences the price shown on that package. Stephanie Hoff introduces labor strikes as an unnoticed influence on some of those prices. Jeff Hadachek, UW Ag Economist explains how these strikes occur and how they can quickly skew the price consumers pay for the products they want.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What happens when you stop focusing on human resources and start focusing on the human experience? Technology is advancing faster than human nature can keep up. If you want to stay relevant, you need a fundamental cultural reset, not just new software. In this interview, Laura Cushing, the Chief People Experience Officer at Pacific Life, discusses the evolving intersection of organizational culture, employee engagement, and artificial intelligence. She emphasizes a strategic shift toward accountability and transparency as the balance of power moves back toward employers in a post-pandemic landscape. To prepare for an AI-driven future, Pacific Life has implemented a Gen AI Academy and Innovation Labs to demystify technology and help staff reimagine their workflows. Cushing highlights the rising importance of "power skills"—human-centric abilities like coaching and visionary leadership—which remain essential as technical tasks become automated. Ultimately, she argues that HR leaders must cultivate deep business acumen and proactive trust-building to successfully guide their workforces through digital transformation.

https://www.zurichna.com/This episode of Future of Risk is the first in Zurich U.S. data center podcast miniseries, where we look at the risk management challenges posed by the rapid expansion of data centers fueled by AI, cloud computing and digital transformation. For the kickoff episode, Wagner speaks with Tobias Cushing, U.S. Head of Construction, and Stephen Penwright, Head of Underwriting for U.S. National Accounts, about how hyperscale data centers are blurring the lines between construction and operations and how these billion‑dollar projects are integrating onsite power generation and testing the limits of insurance capacity. Cushing and Penwright highlight how data centers can remain a strong, insurable risk by building in resiliency, redundancy and safety from design through operations. This episode provides essential insights for risk managers, construction leaders, insurers and business decision‑makers navigating the expanding data center economy.Our host for this miniseries is Matt Wagner, a Regional Vice President with Zurich's Construction business.Record date: 4/10/26Air date: 5/20/26
PPID, often still called “Cushing's” in horses, is one of the most common diagnoses in older horses, but it's also one of the most misunderstood. In this episode, we're joined by Professor Andy Durham to break down what PPID actually is, why testing can be so confusing, and what owners can realistically expect when it comes to diagnosis and management.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 5-07-2026: Dr. Dawn debunks the 1971 "220 minus age" maximum heart rate formula, noting a 2025 study found individual predictions were off by up to 20 beats per minute. She recommends the Tanaka equation (208 minus age) times 0.7, but emphasizes tracking improvement trends rather than absolute numbers. ConsumerLab testing found Safe Catch Wild Elite Pure Tuna and Wild Ahi Yellowfin Tuna had no detectable mercury, prompting Dr. Dawn to reconsider eating tuna after years of avoidance due to concerns about mercury bioaccumulation and its effects on nerve microtubules. A meta-analysis of 115 studies involving 55,000 men found limiting ejaculation before IVF leads to increased sperm DNA damage and poorer motility. Clinical trials showed 46% IVF pregnancy rates with less than 48 hours abstinence versus 36% with longer periods. A personalized mRNA vaccine for pancreatic cancer showed striking results: of 16 patients whose tumors were surgically removed, half produced killer T-cells targeting cancer, and seven of those eight remain alive six years later. Pfizer and Valneva's Lyme disease vaccine reduced infection by over 70% in a trial of 9,400 people ages five and up. Nearly half a million Americans contract Lyme annually, and chronic infection can cause nervous system damage and chronic fatigue. Dr. Dawn explores the gray-market peptide ecosystem, where compounds are sold as "research chemicals" with wink-and-nod marketing. A 2018 Belgian study found purity levels ranging from 5% to 99.9%, with some samples containing arsenic, lead, or industrial contaminants. A study of 450 people found that blocking smartphone internet access for two weeks improved sustained attention equivalent to reversing 10 years of age-related cognitive decline, with depression symptom improvements comparable to cognitive behavioral therapy. A multi-country study of 241 unresponsive patients found that 25% showed brain activity indicating consciousness when asked to imagine playing tennis during advanced brain scans. Scientists call this cognitive motor dissociation, and by some estimates tens of thousands of Americans may be misdiagnosed. Chinese researchers grew functional adrenal cortex organoids that responded to pituitary hormones and produced cortisol when transplanted into mice. They also introduced genetic mutations to create organoid models of Cushing's syndrome for drug testing. A Science paper identified the neural pathway connecting psychological stress to eczema flare-ups: sympathetic neurons from the stellate ganglion recruit eosinophils to the skin. Researchers traced the pathway using pseudo-rabies virus injected into skin. Mouse studies showed prenatal stress causes elevated corticosterone in amniotic fluid, which activates fetal mast cells derived from the yolk sac. Offspring develop eczema-like lesions in areas receiving mechanical stimulation, but symptoms resolve around 24 weeks when bone marrow-derived mast cells replace the activated ones. Callers ask about CBN side effects. Dr. Dawn explains cannabinoids prolong anandamide's calming effects by slowing its breakdown, and considers 30-45mg over a night reasonable, but cautions against escalating doses given limited research.
Recess is often thought of as an “extra” activity in the school day. Sometimes it's even taken away from students as a punishment. But some schools think about recess as an integral part of the school day, where students get the opportunity to connect, practice important social and problem-solving skills they'll need for life.Others are taking it a step further and using it as a tool to help students feel more connected to their school experience, and to decrease chronic absenteeism and establish a school culture where kids feel like they belong at school. That's why I was so excited to connect with Elizabeth Cushing from Playworks.Elizabeth Cushing is CEO of Playworks, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to using the power of play to bring out the best in every child. Elizabeth joined Playworks in 2004 and was named President and COO in 2011 and CEO in 2020. She leads Playworks' Executive Team and is responsible for the organization's strategy, operations and fiscal health. During her tenure Elizabeth has played a lead role in designing Playworks' national scaling strategy including engaging national investors. Alongside founder, Jill Vialet, Elizabeth led the organization through a sustained period of growth from a San Francisco Bay Area-focus to a national organization with 14 teams across the country. As a result of strategic expansion, Playworks shares its unique brand of play and physical activity with 1,000 elementary schools reaching more than 1M children annually. For more than 30 years Elizabeth has served in leadership roles in nonprofit organizations focused on youth development, children's advocacy and women's issues. Elizabeth is a product of Oregon public schools, Stanford University and the Coro Fellows Program in Public Affairs.In this conversation, we discuss:✅ Simple ways educators can set expectations and rules to create structure and a sense of safety around recess✅ How to use play as a reset and a preventative measure, instead of something that's taken away from kids as a punishment✅ How training kids as peer coaches can help decrease disruptive behaviors and help kids discover their own leadership potentialYou can learn more about Playworks on their website at: https://www.playworks.org/Resources mentioned in this interview include:Comprehensive Game Guide that Outlines Games Across Grade Levels: https://www.playworks.org/indiana/game-guide/The sister website for Playworks with tools for assessing the health of your school's recess: https://www.recesslab.org/In this conversation, I mentioned School of Clinical Leadership, my program that helps related service providers design scalable executive functioning interventions to ensure students get the scaffolding they need across the school day.

Tener el cortisol alto por un período prolongado causa el síndrome de Cushing (también llamado hipercortisolismo). Este es un trastorno hormonal en el que el cuerpo está expuesto a un exceso de cortisol, lo que lleva a síntomas como aumento de peso con acumulación de grasa en el tronco, cara de luna llena, piel delgada, debilidad muscular, presión arterial alta y estrías.

Crude oil production from the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin continues to grow, but U.S. PADD 2 refiners are already taking nearly as much as they can. Growing production could move into Cushing, OK, and Patoka, IL, but will there be enough pipeline capacity to reach the Gulf Coast?
What happens when one of the most dreaded days on the calendar gets reimagined as a celebration of collective care? In this episode, Stupski Foundation CEO Glen Galaich and co-host Jamie Allison, executive director of the Walter and Elise Haas Fund, use Tax Day to open up a bigger conversation about public responsibility, private wealth, and what taxes make possible. Jamie makes a joyful case for loving Tax Day, not in spite of what it asks of us, but because taxes fund the schools, roads, clean water, and public systems that hold our lives together. Together, she and Glen ask what it would mean to stop treating taxes as something to avoid and start seeing them as an investment in one another, while also asking whether philanthropy is putting its own tax-advantaged dollars to work with that same sense of responsibility. They are joined by Elizabeth Cushing, CEO of Playworks, a national nonprofit that helps nearly 1 million children each year build belonging, resolve conflict, and return to class ready to learn through structured play and recess. Elizabeth lays out the damaging impact of federal education funding cuts and tightening state budgets on kids across the country. She reframes the question of “how can philanthropy possibly backfill federal funding cuts” to “how can philanthropy act as a bridge in this moment to help nonprofits survive the next few hard years instead of forcing nonprofits to go it alone?”
