Then I interview Joash Thomas about his book The Justice of Jesus, where he explains how Western Christianity lost biblical justice because colonizers taught a purely "spiritual" gospel to benefit themselves.

Blood sugar impacts everything—your energy, your sleep, your hormones, your brain, your heart, your thyroid, EVERYTHING. Yet most of us only hear about it in the context of diabetes.  In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host, Jamie Belz, and fellow NTP, Ashley Lawrence, open the curtain on the real story behind why blood sugar is often the hidden root behind symptoms like PCOS, anxiety, insomnia, weight struggles, and even long-term risks like cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer's. Ashley—known as the “Blood Sugar Bestie”—shares her personal journey of misdiagnosis, failed quick fixes, and finally discovering that blood sugar balance changes everything. Ashley shares: Her hopeful testimonial story and what she did to “lose her PCOS diagnosis.” Why PCOS is more than “just a hormone disorder”—and how insulin resistance drives much of the imbalance. Why some researchers call Alzheimer's “type 3 diabetes,” and what that really means. How early warning signs like skin tags and darkened patches can show up years before a diagnosis. The reality that blood sugar issues can simmer silently for a decade or more before being labeled diabetes. Practical, joy-filled strategies: pairing carbs with protein, food + mood journaling, hydration hacks, and short-term CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitor) experiments to see what works for your bio-individual body. CLEAN FATS make healthy hormones! (ALL natural fats are healthy - they need to be unadulterated and from clean sources.) This episode isn't about restriction. It's about freedom—learning how simple, everyday choices restore balance, resilience, and joy. Want to go deeper?

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman has had a notably impactful week, marked by the release of a new Huberman Lab Essentials episode that's already generating buzz both inside the scientific community and on social platforms according to his official Threads account. The September 18 episode tackled the highly charged debate over moderate drinking and its effects on health, fueling headlines and significant discussion across wellness media. As reported on Stanford's own news site, these Essentials episodes aim to distill actionable science for public use—a mission that continues to expand his influence as science communicator at global scale.In business activity, Huberman's podcast, which remains the number one science and health podcast in the world based on Apple Podcasts and Spotify rankings, rolled out back-to-back features on strength training and hormone optimization, collaborating with strength coach Bret Contreras and performance expert Dr. Duncan French. These episodes garnered hundreds of thousands of new plays in under a week according to listener reports and social media posts, showing no signs of Huberman Lab's audience engagement slowing down. Many subscribers have highlighted these latest releases as some of the podcast's most practical and accessible—fueling a new wave of fitness and health protocol adoption as evident in online discussions and user testimonials published on the Huberman Lab site.Further business momentum centers on the pre-release campaign for Huberman's debut book, Protocols, described as an essential operating manual for the human body. Preorder activity for this book is reportedly brisk according to updates on the Huberman Lab platform, showing early signs that its publication may become a milestone event. There's speculation among book industry analysts, though not yet confirmed by major publishers, that Protocols could enter bestseller territory even before launch, given Huberman's broad following and the book's appeal to both lay and professional audiences.In terms of public appearances, Huberman hosted live virtual Q and A sessions for his premium podcast community, allowing audience-submitted questions on a range of neuroscience and mental health topics. On the research front, Huberman's name surfaced in connection with recent online discussions about hormonal changes and libido, as new science content referencing his expertise on ovulation and libido circuits was circulated in health news outlets and across social media.Social media mentions surged over the weekend as clips of Huberman addressing the mechanisms behind libido changes during ovulation, as well as his protocols for sleep optimization and mood enhancement, broke into trending status on Threads and YouTube Shorts. While there are hints of a collaboration with other thought leaders in behavioral neuroscience, such as posted panel footage from last week's research forums, all collaborations outside regular podcast guests remain unconfirmed as of this writing.There have been no significant negative news stories or controversies attached to Huberman in the past several days. Rather, headlines from science media and recent audience testimonials continue to frame him as a leading figure in translating neuroscience for public benefit, supported by his ongoing role as a tenured professor at Stanford and his increasing footprint in the health extension and tech-for-wellness spaces.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Send us a textEp 664: Ever wondered how childhood experiences secretly shape your sexual desires and why most women struggle to ask for what they want in bed?In this eye-opening episode, Ruin Willow sits down with Tash Doherty (Miss Educated), a London-born writer, author, and sexuality advocate now based in Mexico who's on a mission to make the world "shamelessly sexy." Tash breaks down her three-pillar approach to sexual empowerment: discover what you want, believe you deserve it, and ask for it.The conversation dives deep into how family and cultural shame impact our sexuality, with Tash sharing insights from her upcoming **Sex Journal** launching on Kickstarter. This beautifully designed journal features 20 poems and themed prompts exploring ecstasy, obsession, longing, and desire—all designed to help women reduce shame and align their sex lives with their values.From discussing how childhood associations create unexpected fetishes to exploring the healing power of erotic writing, Tash traces sexuality's role throughout history—from Sappho to the Song Dynasty. She shares her journey from teen romance novelist to sex blogger, including viral pieces like "Get a Man Who Loves Your Bush."The duo also tackles the complex role of pornography in sexual education, highlighting ethical alternatives, and emphasizing the importance of self-exploration through masturbation and quality toys.Ready to explore your own sexual narrative without shame? Tune in for this transformative conversation about reclaiming pleasure and rewriting your story, thereby also improving your relationships. Key Takeaways:• A simple three-pillars formula—know what you want, believe you deserve it, ask for it—reframes sexual confidence as a learnable practice.  • Erotic journaling can dismantle familial shame and scaled into a mainstream coffee-table Sex Journal launched on Kickstarter.  • Stigmatized practices (masturbation, toys, "healthier" porn, open communication) are portrayed as deliberate tools to build self-knowledge, pleasure, and agency.Chapters Timeline:00:00:02 - Shamelessly Sexy00:04:23 - Writing a Sex Journal for Women00:07:23 - Shame and Sexuality00:12:37 - Exploring Female Sexuality and History00:16:09 - Exploring Sexuality Through Design00:18:12 - Achieving Orgasm Equality00:28:16 - Consent, communication, and sexual exploration00:30:56 - Orgasm Equality and Sexual Empowerment00:38:50 - Sex Tech and Favorite Toys00:39:38 - Sex Toys: Tools Not Replacements00:43:32 - Sex Toys Changed My Life, sexual health00:48:09 - Clitoris Shapes, Stimulation, and Orgasm, libido00:52:17 - Vulva vs Vagina, female anatomyConnect with Miss Educated, Tashhttp://misseducated.substack.com/http://tashdoherty.com/Support the showExclusives https://www.buzzsprout.com/1599808/subscribeNewsletters https://subscribepage.io/ruanwillowhttps://linktr.ee/RuanWillow Affiliates Firm Tech 15% OFF with code ruan15 https://myfirmtech.com/ruanwillow BeeDee dating app https://beedee.app/?r=ohfuckyeahThe Fantasy Box DATE30 for $30 OFF 1st box https://thefantasybox.sjv.io/c/6250602/2141126/26423

Send us a textWe all want to raise kids without sexual hang-ups, but a lot of Christian parents are accidentally creating the very problems they're trying to avoid. Rebecca and I dive into the three biggest ways this happens: being way too open about your own sex life with your kids (no, they don't need to know what you and your husband did last night), making a federal case out of normal teenage sexual development like masturbation, and approaching pornography with so much shame and "sin talk" that you actually make the problem worse.

Aging is inevitable. But letting your sex life fade away? Nope. This week, we're tackling one of our most requested topics ever: sex and aging. We're answering your biggest questions about how intimacy shifts as the years go by: from libido changes, to navigating menopause, to keeping things hot.

Send us a textWe're constantly told that more sex will fix our marriages, but the research tells a completely different story. When couples are simply told to increase frequency without addressing quality, satisfaction, and women's actual experiences, it often backfires and decreases desire altogether. The real predictor of marital happiness isn't how often you're having sex—it's whether that sex is mutually satisfying, intimate, and pleasurable for both people. Unfortunately, evangelical sex advice keeps pushing obligation sex messages that treat women's exhaustion and needs as obstacles to overcome rather than valid concerns. It's time we start asking better questions about what makes sex actually good instead of just demanding more of it.OUR SPONSOR:Check out the book Better Ways to Read the Bible--to transform the way you see Scripture, and let it come alive again if it's been used as a weapon against you.TO SUPPORT US: Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workAnd check out our Merch, or any of our courses!Join our email list!LINKS MENTIONED:The Orgasm Course Psychology Today article on sexual frequency and happinessFocus on the Family State of Marriage in America surveyThe Whole Story puberty course for kids (coupon code: PODCAST)Our reel about the 24 hour ruleSupport the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books: The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves Better The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great Sex And she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.

The unconscious has become a well-known feature of our human lived experience since Freud.

Send us a textI brought together three dear friends to have an honest conversation about perimenopause and menopause because so many of you have been asking about it. We shared our real stories and talked about the challenges like brain fog, weight changes, and sexual adjustments, and my dry eyes that nearly drove me crazy!

Each of us found our voices during menopause, finally standing up in toxic relationships and getting angry about toxic teachings we'd tolerated for years.  OUR SPONSOR:Check out the book Better Ways to Read the Bible--to transform the way you see Scripture, and let it come alive again if it's been used as a weapon against you.TO SUPPORT US: Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workAnd check out our Merch, or any of our courses!Join our email list!LINKS MENTIONED:The Orgasm Course Merry Lin's book RebecomingMerry Lin's LinkTreeMerry's Bare Marriage podcast episode with meKelita Haverland's song The Strong One Rosemary Flaaten's program at The Center for Healthy RelationshipsThe We Do Not Care Club video Support the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books: The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves Better The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great Sex And she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.

Ist die Pille wirklich so problematisch? Wie verlässlich ist Coitus interruptus – oder eben nicht? Und warum sind Frauen nicht immer super gut drauf? Der weibliche Zyklus gilt für viele Männer als einziges Mysterium, deswegen sagen wir als eure zwei Lieblingsmänner: Schluss damit! Gemeinsam mit Chefärztin Dr. Mandy Mangler tauchen wir ganz tief ein in die Welt der Gynäkologie und sprechen darüber, wie der Zyklus wirklich funktioniert, was Frauen in der zweiten Hälfte besonders brauchen und wann Lust und Libido ihren Höhepunkt haben. Mandy verrät außerdem, wann Frauen ihr Gehalt verhandeln sollten, warum sich der Männergeschmack während der Periode vielleicht ändern kann und warum ein großer Penis beim Sex gar nicht mal so optimal ist.

In this episode of 'Outside the Cinema', hosts Bill and Chris dive into discussions about cult movies, focusing on two films: 'Libido' from the 1960s and 'Crypt of Dark Secrets' from the 1970s. They explore the themes, characters, and cinematic techniques of both films, providing insights into their narratives and production. The conversation also touches on the broader context of Italian cinema and the giallo genre, as well as the hosts' personal reflections on the films' impact and their recommendations for viewers.

In this episode, Tracey and Kelsey discuss these three anonymous questions:1) I've listened to enough of your podcasts to know that women don't often orgasm through intercourse alone. But, is there anything a man can do to make that more possible, apart from holding a vibrator on her clitoris while he is inside her? My penis is starting to get a complex!2) I've recently lost a lot of weight through the weight loss jab. I'm thrilled with the results—except for the effect on my sex life. My husband and I stopped having sex years ago because I felt too fat. I don't think he found me sexually attractive at that weight, anyway. He's thrilled that I'm back to the same weight I was when we met and clearly expects us to resume having sex. The thing is, I don't want to. I never did enjoy sex much, but I have zero interest now. Not sure if that's a side effect of the drug? I look sexier, but don't feel it. What do I do?3) How safe are glass dildos? I'm tempted to buy one but worry they'll break inside me. Are they okay for anal play (assuming they have a flared base)? I'm a man and we are not famous for being gentle, especially when we are playing solo.To have Tracey and Kelsey discuss YOUR secret sex question, enter it anonymously at https://bit.ly/3C4AelUWant a copy of Tracey's book, Great Sex Starts at 50?

In this episode, you'll discover a fresh perspective on intimacy, focusing on how to move beyond comparison, shame, and routine to create a vibrant, personalized sexual connection. Guided by expert insights and the latest research, you'll learn practical strategies for accessing flow state during intimacy, embracing your unique sexuality, and rekindling sensuality throughout all stages of your relationship.

That's why I sat down with Andrea Donsky, a brilliant Menopause Researcher, Nutritionist, and Host of the Menopause Reimagined podcast. With nearly 350K TikTok followers and decades in the wellness space, Andrea's on a mission to change the way we talk about this season of life, and trust me, you'll feel so seen after hearing what she shares. We chatted about the 100+ symptoms women are dealing with (some that honestly blew my mind), how to support your body with simple nutrition shifts, and why magnesium and omega-3s might just be your new best friends. Andrea also opened up about the reality of low libido and sleep struggles, things so many of us face but rarely talk about. If you've ever felt confused, frustrated, or just plain tired during perimenopause or menopause, you're not alone, friend. This episode is full of truth, tools, and a whole lot of hope.

When Natalie met her husband, they clicked instantly. After marriage, their sex life was good at first, but over time her desire began to fade. Things worsened after having kids—she describes her husband's advances as “feeling like another need to fill.” He urged her to “fix” her low libido, but deep down, she knew it wasn't her hormones that needed repairing. Something felt off, though she couldn't quite pinpoint it—she just knew his advances left her feeling gross and cringy.Around this time, Natalie discovered Janna's podcast and immediately recognized what had been missing in her relationship: safety. Through the Doing It Together program, she felt validated and reassured that her instincts had been right all along. As her trust in her intuition grew, she and her husband uncovered behaviours that had been off-base. Now, they're working together to create a safer, healthier space for both of them.Get Janna's FREE 3-part video series for women, The Real Reason You Don't Want Sex.Janna's Wanting It More Foundations self-paced course for women is always open for registration.

My guest is Dr. Nirao Shah, MD, PhD, a professor of psychiatry, behavioral sciences and neurobiology at Stanford University School of Medicine. We discuss how the brains of males and females differ and how those differences arise from different genes and hormones during fetal development, in childhood and adulthood. We discuss what drives male- versus female-specific behaviors and how hormonal fluctuations across the lifespan, including puberty, the menstrual cycle, menopause and aging – affect behavior, cognition and health. Additionally, we discuss how biology relates to gender identity and the impact of hormone therapies on brain circuits that regulate mating, parenting and social bonding.

If you care about longevity, brain optimization, sexual performance, or metabolism, this molecule changes everything. Host Dave Asprey sits down with nitric oxide pioneer Dr. Nathan Bryan to reveal why this overlooked molecule controls your blood flow, mitochondrial energy, neuroplasticity, insulin response, and even your libido. You'll learn how nitric oxide acts as a master switch for human performance and why the medical system has ignored it for decades. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Dr. Nathan Bryan is a world-renowned expert in nitric oxide biochemistry with over 20 years of clinical research, multiple patents, and collaborations with Nobel Prize-winning scientists. His groundbreaking work forms the foundation for modern functional medicine protocols targeting blood flow, metabolism, cognitive enhancement, and mitochondrial upgrades. You'll learn: • How nitric oxide drives mitochondria, metabolism, and human performance • Why most nitric oxide supplements fail and how to spot real ones • The critical role nitric oxide plays in brain optimization, libido, and insulin signaling • How poor oral health, statins, and PPIs can kill nitric oxide production • What nitric oxide has to do with sleep optimization, aging, and disease prevention • How to stack nitric oxide with fasting, ketosis, nootropics, red light, and supplements • Why “Smarter Not Harder” starts with nitric oxide fueled upgrades This episode is essential listening for anyone into biohacking, cold therapy, functional medicine, or RFK-style medical freedom. You'll walk away with practical tools to boost nitric oxide naturally, prevent dysfunction, and optimize your biology whether you're on a carnivore diet or just looking for an edge. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind. Each episode features cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, hacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.
