The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host In this episode of The Pleasure Zone, we're diving into the deliciously overlooked art of afterplay—those tender, lingering moments that happen after the climax, when skin is still buzzing and hearts are wide open. While foreplay seduces the body and sex ignites the fire, afterplay is the warm glow that keeps the flame alive long after the heat. This isn't just about lying there—it's about weaving intimacy into every breath, every glance, every soft brush of skin. Afterplay can melt away tension, strengthen your bond, and turn good sex into an unforgettable experience that lingers in your body for hours—or even days. In this episode, "Afterplay & Aftercare In Sex", Milica Jelenic Sex & Intimacy Coach, Holistic Health Practitioner and Host of The Pleasure Zone will share her favourite sensual and caring actions that make your post-play time not only satisfying, but irresistibly addictive!

Many women report difficulties with orgasms, low libido or pain around intercourse. And given that many have never even learned much about their genitals, they don't always know where to get help. A cadre of Canadian doctors specializing in women's sexual health is trying to change that. They're helping patients boost pleasure, while empowering them to get to know their sexual anatomy.
As a Pleasure and Orgasm Coach, Jenn Wodtke helps women find deep fulfillment and self-worth through connection with their desires, sexuality, and pleasure. Her clients learn how to quiet their inner critic, get out of their mind and into their body so they can expand their pleasure and orgasmic capacity. Ultimately, it's about personal power and satisfaction. Jenn's Touchless Orgasm Method is a revolutionary approach that focuses on how to connect with the pleasure that is already inside us. Supporting women as they reclaim power that has historically been denied them is Jenn's passion.

Drawing from her Dominican roots and her own transformative birth experiences, Birth A Mi Manera Founder, Estefany Angeles, blends cultural tradition with evidence-based care to help families embrace autonomy and joy in childbirth.

Lou Sullivan, arguably one of the first out gay trans men, kept diaries from age 11 until his death in 1991. Decades later, Zach Ozma and Ellis Martin compiled those diaries into "We Both Laughed in Pleasure" (aka the Pink Butt Book) which tells the story of Lou's full, freaky, fascinating life. Zach and Ellis talk to us about painstakingly parsing through Lou's Catholic school cursive and learning that the trans experience is really on a historic loop.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host For centuries, women's sexual health has been sidelined, silenced, and misunderstood—reduced to reproduction while male sexual needs took center stage. In this episode of The Pleasure Zone, Milica Jelenic exposes the roots of the pleasure gap and shares the cultural, medical, and political shifts needed to reclaim women's sexual health. From Victorian “hysteria” diagnoses to the fast-tracking of Viagra versus the decades-long wait for female libido treatments, we'll uncover the biases, funding gaps, and taboos that have shaped the story of women's sexual health—and explore how to change it. In this episode we will look at: *The Historical Roots of Neglect *How women's bodies became defined primarily by reproduction, not pleasure. *The “male body as the default” problem in medical research. *The Cultural Taboo Around Female Pleasure *Why women's sexual health conversations have been shamed or silenced. *Double standards in how male vs. female sexual needs are treated. *The Viagra Effect & the Research Gap *How men's sexual health drugs fast-tracked while women's treatments stalled. *Economic and market forces driving the imbalance. *The Modern Movement to Reclaim Pleasure *Grassroots activism, social media, and the rise of menopause & perimenopause visibility. *How to advocate for your sexual health in the doctor's office—and beyond.

This week on A Pod Named Kickback, me and Jacq kicked things off with her Jamaican getaway—specifically, our fascination with why Jamaica's KFC is hyped as the best in the world. From crispy chicken to secret seasoning theories, we had questions.We then dove deep into the difference between eudaimonic happiness—that purpose-driven, soul-aligned fulfillment—and hedonic happiness, those quick bursts of pleasure from a drink, smoke, or night out. We broke down why the first one lasts longer and how we can all do a better job chasing it.From there, we got real about Trump's plan to charge D.C. youth as adults starting at 14. While violent crime in my hometown is undeniably up, I questioned what federal control over D.C. would mean for our future—and for the rest of the country.We also took a moment to honor Robert T. Hood, who was tragically killed in Atlanta, sending love to his family while steering clear of the rumor mill.Finally, we gave y'all a peek at what's next—relaunching the Patreon, bringing back Kickback Sports, new segments like That's That with Jacq, and collaborations with other creators. The vibe's different now that it's me and Jack—and the Kickbackers seem to be loving it.Special Note: The audio you're hearing is just a snapshot.

In an endearingly self-deprecating description of this episode we would say that it's about twenty minutes longer than it needs to be. But there really is a lot to talk about with Eddie entertaining us all at Trump International and finding a top-10 finish on the main tour again. Yet even in finding form he still flirts with the darkness and is starting to cause some concern to Andrew, Iain and his many TCF followers / stalkers. There is also plenty of discussion of Tommy Fleetwood once again coming up short in Memphis and what he can change to get over the line. And there is no end of admiration for Justin Rose and his play-off win, with Iain suggesting there really is little that Rose can't do.

In this episode of Rhythm, Routine & Reverence, I'm joined by Eva-Maria Smith, a mentor, space-holder, and guide for women seeking to return to the pulse of their own aliveness. Through her work, Eva invites mothers to explore pleasure as a pathway, embrace ceremonial self-connection, and engage with the deeper currents of Eros energy.Our conversation is a gentle yet expansive exploration of what it means to awaken to ourselves—whether that's through intimate daily rituals, nourishing the senses, or cultivating a relationship with our own inner landscapes. Eva's new offering, BLUSH, is a deeply embodied journey for women ready to experience themselves anew. You'll hear her speak about the inspiration behind it, how it weaves pleasure into everyday life, and why this work matters so deeply for mothers.

What if the real key to peace, power, and purpose isn't found in chasing pleasure or avoiding pain—but in embracing balance? In this transformative talk, Rev. Lee Wolak, author of The Power in You, reveals why life is always seeking equilibrium—and why true spiritual growth only happens when we align with this universal truth. You can try to escape discomfort or cling to what feels good, but eventually, life brings you back to center. The question is: will you surrender to balance or resist it? Discover how the Law of Balance governs your relationships, health, success, and spiritual evolution. Learn how to release control, trust the process, and return to your natural state of wholeness. This is not just philosophy—it's practical, powerful, and personal.

Imagine leaving power, money, fame, and comfort, and willingly choosing to live among slaves?That was precisely what Moses did, when "he became of age, refus(ing) to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin" (Hebrews 11:23b-24). Moses's choice to suffer instead of pursuing pleasure serves as an example to every believer in every age!Today, we explore the incredible walk of faith of Moses and his parents, Amram and Jochebed, and be encouraged that you too can stand firm in your faith despite the challenges presented by secular culture.Turn to Hebrews 11 for our next installment in our series "Great Faith in Our Great God."(RAR2024EP33)
This episode is personal. It's a confession.After doing this work for nearly a decade… after witnessingthe power of erotic energy transform lives—including my own. I still shut off my own turn-on.It happened after I released a man from my life.Not consciously, but deeply, subtly… I closed the door to my own pleasure.And maybe you've done this too. Maybe you used to feel sexy, alive, radiant and somewhere along the way, it disappeared. You buried it. You convinced yourself you didn't need it. You got busy. You got hurt. You got tired.But I get it. I really get it.Because knowing the work isn't always enough.We can know and still numb.Still fear. Still doubt. Still carry the shame.But this new layer of awareness?It changes everything.It deepens the power behind this work.The transmission of erotic energy isn't just sexyIt's sacred. It's transformational.This is why I'm so passionate about helping women reclaimit.Because your true power?It's in your erotic energy.It's in your pleasure.It's in the parts of you you've been taught to shut down.And it's time to turn it back on.

Brian Sloan is a true outsider entrepreneur—a former lawyer turned unconventional inventor and e-commerce mogul. Best known for launching the AutoBlow (the world's best-selling robotic male pleasure device), Brian has built a multi-million dollar business at the strange intersection of crowdfunding, product invention, adult e-commerce, and viral marketing. With over 20 patents and stunts covered everywhere from TechCrunch to Playboy, his story is a lesson in how creativity and opportunism can outperform more “vanilla” high-earning careers.

Learn by Doing, Iterate Relentlessly: You don't need every skill in-house. Build on existing products, use global suppliers, and aggressively learn the skills you need to move forward. If You Can't Buy Attention, Earn It: In “taboo” or restricted industries, PR stunts, viral content, and direct response marketing can build a brand when paid ads won't touch you.

But I knew I wanted to compete on my own terms.” “It's not about being interested in the niche—it's seeing signals, buyer demand, and then figuring out how to serve it.” “I invented by necessity. If you can get people 70–80% of the way, the right partners can bring it home—and you don't need an engineering degree to do it.” Connect with Brian Sloan: Products: autoblow.com
