Welcome to today's ICYMI, where we kick off the week with a quick game-changing tip from one of our guests that you might have missed. Raise your hand if you're hella burnt out at work, and you low-key job hunt every week... Corporate dissatisfaction is at an all-time high, and a lot of us are sick of it.

So this week we're throwing it back to this incredibly actionable advice from Komal Minhas, who educates us on what work-life balance actually looks like, working with the corporate system to improve your job, how to gradually implement boundaries (we see you, quiet-quitting) and more.

She's landed a spot on Oprah's Super Soul 100 list, screened her film, Dream, Girl, at the Obama White House, and has interviewed legends like Glennon Doyle and Michelle Obama.

(Exciting, June 2023 **UPDATES** at the bottom)Today I sit down with Eric W. Brown. Eric is a drummer, audio designer and award-winning video game composer currently based in Denver, CO. He has been touring the world as a member of various bands for over 14 years. He is the full-time drummer of Nekrogoblikon, Swashbuckle and Wizardthrone, and also holds down a full-time position as composer and audio director at Sabotage Studio, an independent game studio from Québec City, Canada. Their first project The Messenger released in 2018, and their current project Sea Of Stars raised over $1.6 million CAD in the midst of a pandemic, making history as one of the most successful Canadian video game Kickstarter campaigns of all time.Eric and I get into:His work at sabotage studios and the hotly anticipated release of sea of starsThe attraction of writing chip tune musicHow rainbow dragon eyes blew up (no thanks to Linked In)How he got into music at a young ageBeing in a committed romantic relationship with a touring musicianHow Eric is able to cash checks made out to The Legendary Pirate KingHis work doing sound design and mixing audio for video gamesCheck out his work!Nekrogoblikon : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsMKOx6fumcWizardthrone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fqg37F6RhtMRainbowdragoneyes: http://www.rainbowdragoneyes.comSwashbuckle: https://swashbuckleband.bandcamp.com/Sabotage Studio: https://sabotagestudio.com/The Messenger: https://themessengergame.com/Sea of Stars: https://seaofstarsgame.co/Insta: http://instagram.com/ericwbrownovfire**UPDATE**Eric: "After a couple years of working on #seaofstars as the sole member of the audio department, I realized I needed a lifeline to help with the increasingly daunting task of creating audio for a game no less than 4 times bigger than what I did by myself in 2018 with The Messenger. I gave Jake (@olbigleg) a call asking if he'd be interested in helping out, and within a month he'd learned the tools on his own and was ready to jump into the fire. Starting at only one day a week, he moved up to two and then three as production ramped up. Together we've created over 19,000 audio assets and collaborated on several tunes currently in game. Over the past 2 months our bands completed our second tour together and at the last show I wanted to get a selfie together while they were on stage playing for 800 people in Los Angeles. Here is that selfie (See @ericborwnovfire). Sea of Stars releases on August 29 on every platform. Play it with the sound on. Follow your dreams."ICYMI - Listen to #116 TRSS 05-28-2023 to hear tracks from Nekrogoblikon and Robin's experience seeing them on their most recent Goblin Mode tour. Enjoy!

Self-love is the greatest middle finger of all time. This week, Zuri sits down with Dr. Adia Gooden, a licensed clinical psychologist, for a fantastic conversation on how we can cultivate a sense of unconditional self-worth outside of our career ambitions and our romantic and platonic relationships. They explore how we can show up for ourselves by reinforcing our boundaries, speaking up for ourselves (including in the bedroom), and the ultimate key to creating a healthy romantic relationship. Dr. Adia also shares her personal story of contracting an STD while in college, how that experience rocked her sense of self-worth, how self-forgiveness freed her from shame, and how it can free you.

Hi again, loves, and welcome back for part two of my conversation with @thatsexchick, Alexa Bowditch. We're going to dive even deeper into our discussion on sex — and what we really should know about it related to our pleasure, health, and relationships — not just the basics we learned in school. I'm sure many of you mamas out there will agree when I say — it's scary thinking about what our children will find out about sex before we get to them. We all want our children to know how to properly and sensually engage in sex when the time comes, and as Alexa points out, this starts with us. It starts with taking radical responsibility for our sexuality, unlearning what we think we know, and staying humble as we open ourselves up to new experiences. As parents and adults, we need to understand how we relate to pleasure and sexual fulfillment so that we can have grounded conversations with our kids — and our partners. Alexa talks about treating sex like you would anything else related to your wellbeing - you go to the gym for your physical health, you meditate for your mental health, and you need that same level of maintenance for your sexual health. Tune in to hear her insights on how to do this and a level of sex education that you definitely didn't get in school. What's something you've learned through your sexual experiences that you wish you knew sooner? If you could go back in time, what is something you wish your parents had told you about sex, or what would have been helpful to learn in school? Knowing what you know now, how can you take ownership of your sexual education and desires to ensure that you (and if it applies, your children) can have a healthier relationship with sex? ICYMI: Listen to part one of my conversation with Alexa here: Some of the juicy nuggets you'll get out of this episode: - What is a “Want Will Won't” list and how to create one and use it with your partner - grab your free copy here https://www.thatsexchick.com/resources - Taking ownership for your sexual desires instead of being a victim or laying blame on your partner - Practicing BDSM with communication, consent, and care - Being fully consensual in your sexual relationships, letting things be reversible, and how allowing the things you don't actually want can cause harm - Infusing childlike innocence and play into your sexuality - Reevaluating your approach to sex when things start to get mundane - The anatomy of the vagina, a lesson on the clitoris, and what the vagina needs for a better quality orgasm - How to orgasm without penetration through your unique sexual blueprint - Leveraging toys for deeper, more compassionate sex More resources on sex, relationships, and embodying your full self: - Follow Alexa on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thatsexchick - Grab her “Want Will Won't” questions and other free resources here https://www.thatsexchick.com/resources - Listen to Alexa's That Sex Chick Podcast https://www.thatsexchick.com/podcast - Tune in to a conversation with my husband, Ajit, on difficult transitions and how we keep the spark alive in our relationship https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ajit-nawalkha-talking-with-my-husband-about-difficult/id1608226580?i=1000551024866 - If you're like Alexa, and people always come to you for advice on that thing you're passionate about or an expert on, how can you leverage that to completely change the course of your life (like she did!) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-know-if-you-are-ready-to-pursue-your-purpose/id1608226580?i=1000554190755 I'm so grateful to have you here, loves.
