Welcome to a conversation about podcast positivity with a somatic sex educator! Sex positive podcaster Karen Yates is in the midst of a pivot. Her show, Wild & Sublime, will still deliver its trademark sexy spin on infotainment, but as she heads back out into the real world to host her show live, onstage, she's reevaluating the things she loves about podcasting and what she doesn't. The podcast (created as a result of COVID lockdown) is an extension of those public performances. Whether focused on solo or poly play, kinky or vanilla variations, communication remains Wild & Sublime's main thrust (sorry, not sorry: Karen's world is pun-heavy).  Pleasure, as you might imagine, is another theme of Karen's show. That's where we steer this conversation - back to the pleasure of podcasting. Sure, we all craft shows with listeners in mind but, ultimately, our podcasts are for us. So, let me ask you:  What about this medium is pleasurable to you?  What podcast tasks do you enjoy doing?  What gets you in the state of flow versus what feels like a chore? After two full seasons of weekly scheduled episodes, Karen's giving those questions more thorough review. She's already outsourced the tasks that slow her down (full disclosure: she's hired The Creative Impostor Studios to take pesky production to-dos off her plate), creating time to consider her format for the upcoming season.  So, now what? As with sex positivity, podcast positivity invites play; the only rules are the ones you create. Karen has discovered what she and her audiences love most. Now she's taking the time to take good care of her podcast.  Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at:  http://www.thecreativeimpostor.com/podenvy088   CONNECT WITH KAREN YATES Wild & Sublime Podcast Instagram Karen Yates - Biofield Tuning sound therapy LISTEN TO WILD & SUBLIME S1E02 | Getting Laid During COVID: Long-Term Relationships S2E12 | COVID and Dating: FEB 2010 Update   I'd love to hear your thoughts!

While recording this episode, I wrote down the following equation: Communication + boundaries = freedom to explore and play So, yeah...we're talking about sex as self-care with Karen Yates, somatic sex educator as well as creator and host of Wild & Sublime, the live show and podcast that delivers a sexy spin on infotainment.  Sex however is too narrow a term - at least by current, uniquely American standards. Erotic mindfulness is more expansive and inviting, focusing on openness and sensual pleasure rather than just the act. If you're like me - a full-grown, cis-gendered, sexually active adult - even PG-rated discussions about sex (like this one) still make your cheeks flame. Karen, who's a longtime member of Chicago's sex-positive scene, has a knack for making frank discussions welcoming no matter where her audience falls on the sexual spectrum. “We talk about kink. We talk about vanilla sex. We talk about LGBTQ issues. We talk about just how to relate to each other.” Did you catch that? Relating to each other and to self is Wild & Sublime's main thrust. Pardon the pun but when you hang around with Karen, you can't help it. And if COVID has left you blissfully or woefully partner-free? Erotic mindfulness should be at the top of your self-care practice. “It's always good to build a new relationship with your body because the body gives so much information,” Karen says. “Bottom line, no matter where you come from, it's going to be an expansive, extraordinary exploration.”  *** Full show notes, resources, opportunities, other podcasts & books mentioned...

We have been talking a lot here on "The Human Side of Healthcare" about various aspects of Covid-19, surely the biggest medical story of our generation. One very important element of the impact of Covid-19 is on our kids. In the first two segments, we are delighted to have Dr. Mary Whitworth, Medical Director of Infectious Diseases at Cook Children's Health Care System with us to talk about how our kids are handling this emotionally, and how it has been affecting youth physically. In the second half of the show we discuss the very important topic of having the assurance to call 911 if you or a loved one may be having a medical emergency, particularly related to a heart attack or stroke. Minutes can make a life-or-death difference in this game, so you absolutely don't want to hesitate to dial 911 if you should find yourself in this situation. Joining us are Karen Yates, Chest Pain/EMS Coordinator at Methodist Health System Mansfield, Dr. Alan Taylor, Interventional Cardiologist also at Methodist Health Mansfield, and Kevin Cunningham EMS Battalion Chief at the Midlothian Fire Department. This interview is full of valuable "need-to-know" information to be prepared for such an emergency. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
