Let's talk about blowjobs.Not the performative, porn-scripted kind. And not the kind you give just to “get it over with.” We're talking about the ones that are offered from genuine turn-on, deep connection, and sovereign choice.In this week's episode, we open up about a very real part of our journey- how something that used to feel like a chore (for Kim) became a space of embodied pleasure, sacred play, and deep trust between us.And it's not just about blowjobs. It's about what happens when you remove pressure, drop the old stories, and let truth and turn-on take the lead. Quick summary into this week's episode: The difference between performing and feelingHow porn culture and shame hijack connectionWhy sacred sex has nothing to do with technique and everything to do with safetyHow feedback can be foreplayAnd why your body will always tell the truth (if you're willing to listen)And many more! If you're someone who's already been on this path…Who's done the workshops, studied the teachings, and experienced sacred sex in its fullness…But you know there's another layer waiting to be unlocked…We'd love to invite you deeper.Our private couples retreats are for the ones who are ready for the next level of turn-on, tenderness, and truth. It's one-on-one work with us at our lakeside sanctuary in Ontario—a space designed for sacred re-patterning, embodied pleasure, and soul-deep partnership.

Send me a messageIn this episode of Climate Confident, I speak with Alice Chun, inventor of the world's first inflatable, origami-inspired solar light and founder of Solight Design. Alice shares how a career in material technology and a deeply personal experience with her son's asthma led her to tackle energy poverty, disaster relief, and carbon emissions with a single, deceptively simple product: the SolarPuff™.We discuss the staggering health and environmental toll of kerosene lighting, especially in off-grid and disaster-affected communities — and how collapsible, durable solar lanterns are not only cleaner and safer, but can also act as tools for education, safety, and psychological recovery.Alice walks us through the practical design choices (like sailcloth and origami folds) that make the lights lightweight, shippable, and long-lasting. She also unpacks her field experiences from Haiti to Ukraine, why she insists on personally delivering lights, and the complex balance of running a mission-driven company that also needs to survive commercially.Key takeaways:Why light access is essential for disaster resilience and safetyHow solar design can scale through beauty, durability, and functionThe unexpected link between solar tech and trauma recovery in childrenWhat business models can sustain social impact in climate techFor more, visit https://solight-design.com or head to climateconfidentpodcast.com.Support the showPodcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's amazing supporters: Lorcan Sheehan Jerry Sweeney Andreas Werner Stephen Carroll Roger Arnold And remember you too can Support the Podcast - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent Climate Confident episodes like this one.ContactIf you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - get in touch via direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn.

Kathy Kinghorn has been a trauma therapist for over 13 years, and was a facilitator in my first Advanced Relationship Trauma Certification for Coaches. In this conversation, we discuss the differences and similarities between trauma therapy and trauma coaching and touch on when's the right time for one or the other. For some, coaching might be the thing that prepares someone for therapy. For others, therapy might come before coaching and sometimes people can benefit from both. We also talk about the disconnect between some therapists and coaches and how we envision that relationship between the two professions in the future. Our goal is what's in the best interest for our clients' healing and growth.In this episode we discuss:The difference between trauma therapy and trauma coachingWhen's the right time for working with a coachRecognizing that healing isn't linearThe importance of safetyHow we envision the relationship between therapists and coachesHierarchies and barriers to entryHow a collaborative effort can be in the BEST interest of our clients.What really matters when it comes to sustainable healing.Referenced in the episode:Felt Sense EpisodeConnect with Kathy:WebsiteFacebookLindsay's current program offerings: Are you a Certified Coach looking to deepen your skillset by Becoming Trauma-Informed?

The paper reviewed in this episode is from the Journal of Applied Psychology entitled, “A meta-analysis of personality and workplace safety: Addressing unanswered questions” by Beus, J. M., Dhanani, L. Y., & McCord, M. A. (2015). Discussion Points:Overview of the intersection between psychology and workplace safetyHow personality tests may predict safety performanceAccident proneness theory to modern behaviorismResearch on personality and safety performancePersonality traits influencing work behaviorsThe influence of institutional logicPersonality tests for safety performanceThe need for further research and standardized measurement methodsExamining statistical evidence linking personality to safety performancePersonality traits and their impact on work behaviorAnalysis of research findings on personality and safety performanceThe practical implications of the research findingsThe intriguing yet complex relationship between personality and safetyTakeaways:While not total bunk, we definitely don't understand the impact of personality on safety nearly enough to use it as a tool to predict who will or won't make a safe employeeThere are lots of different ways that we could use personality to get some insights and to make some contributionsWe need people using those measurements to find out more about the relationship between personality and behavior in different situations in different contexts with different choices under different organizational influences.The answer to our episode's question – Maybe. It depends. Sometimes, in some places not yet. I don't want to say no, but it's not yes yet either. Quotes:I have to admit, before I read this, I thought that the entire idea of personality testing for safety was total bunk. Coming out of it, I'm still not convinced, but it's much more mixed or nuanced than I was expecting. - DrewIf there was a systemic trend where some people were genuinely more accident prone, we would expect to see much sharper differences between the number of times one person had an accident and all people who didn't have accidents. - DrewI think anything that lumps people into four or five categories downplays the uniqueness of each individual. - DavidThere are good professionals in HR, there's good science in HR, but there is a huge amount of pseudo-science around recruiting practices and every country has its own pseudoscience. - Drew Resources:Link to the Paper The Safety of Work PodcastThe Safety of Work on LinkedInFeedback@safetyofwork

(08:30) There's a spectrum of vulnerability and a spectrum of responses to vulnerability. You can reward it, punish it, or do something in between.How do we create healthy company cultures? (11:30) If we want healthy cultures where inclusion and innovation are the standards, we must reward vulnerability.What are red zones and blue zones? (13:15) Red zones are environments of punished vulnerability, and blue zones are environments of rewarded vulnerability.Vulnerability occurs across the 4 stages of psychological safety (24:30). Tim and Junior share common acts of vulnerability found in inclusion, learner, contributor, and challenger safety. Vulnerability and inclusion safety (26:00). Inclusion safety satisfies the basic human need to be included, accepted, and belong. It means it's not expensive to be yourself. Vulnerability and learner safety (43:00). Acts of vulnerability in Stage 2: Learner Safety relate to learning and the discovery process. Because learning is fraught with uncertainty and risk, every person brings some level of inhibition and anxiety to the learning process. Vulnerability and contributor safety (48:50). Acts of vulnerability in Stage 3: Contributor Safety relate to making a meaningful contribution and reflect a willingness to be held accountable for your performance.Vulnerability and challenger safety (53:20). Acts of vulnerability in Stage 4: Challenger Safety relate to challenging the status quo and creating value in new and different ways through innovation.

In our third season, we will explore the new Profile of a Lifelong Learner, a framework that defines the digital skills needed for success in the future of work. Released in late 2020, the Profile includes five Features that unpack the intersection of digital and lifelong learning skills. Nested under each Feature are three Practices - habits that adult learners, job seekers, and workers should develop to thrive at work, in school, and in community life. Our hope is that the research-backed Profile will help job seekers, workers, and job coaches build new skills that effectively prepare today's workers for the jobs of today and tomorrow. Check out skillrise.org/profile to explore the framework and learn about the methodology for how it was developed. In this episode, we explore the third of five Profile Features: Digital Citizen. Joining us for the conversation are two of our SkillRise advisors: Richard Culatta, CEO of the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE)Kate Ash, Consulting Director for the Workforce Innovation Network at National Governors AssociationIn this episode, we talk about:The importance of digital citizenship in the modern worldWhy digital citizenship needs to be more than just online safetyHow states and governors have used the pandemic to assess and evolve communication and delivery systemsThe benefit of using standards frameworks to align language and simplify conversations across systemsHow human-centered design can support more accessible and equitable outcomesNotes from Episode 2ISTE's SkillRise InitiativeAbout the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE)The Profile of a Lifelong Learner, a research-backed framework that defines the digital skills needed to thrive in the future of work.

Sometimes we look around, or turn on the news, and it feels like we're just being pummeled with injustices and it can feel overwhelming.Maybe you've already been fighting social biases based on race, income, or ability - and now here comes this kid that you love more than life, and they're thrusting you into a whole new world of oppression that you probably didn't even know existed.I think that advocacy and inclusion work as a parent of a trans kid is almost inevitable. You're going to find yourself in positions to educate and advocate over and over and over and over again. Some parents find this to be overwhelming, others find it empowering, and love being able to find their voice as they fight for their child's rights. I don't think any parent recognizes that this is going to be part of their parenting journey until they're facing discrimination head on. They didn't know that the people they might have to push back against are their friends, family members, and colleagues. And sometimes they can get resentful of how their child doesn't have the same privileges they thought they did, and how their lack of gender privilege also spills onto them.Today's campfire guest is a therapist, social justice advocate, racial equity trainer, small business owner and overall badass, Martha Stebbins. Martha owns Mente Counseling and Consulting in Seattle Washington. She is bilingual/bicultural and her pronouns are she/ella. Martha is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to working with little kids and trauma, and she also has a wealth of knowledge and experience in helping families of color navigate mental health and social injustice. Check out the full episode to hear about:How intersectionality interacts with our implicit calculations of danger and safetyHow intersectionality is impacted by both self-identification and external perceptions and interactionsWhy oppressive forces and intersectionality matter for everyone, even if we hold privilegeHow parents can approach their trans kiddos' intersecting identities with openness and curiosityFind out more about Martha Stebbins-Aguiniga:Mente Counseling and ConsultingFind out more about Mackenzie Dunham:Wildheartsociety.orgwildheartsociety.org/downloadsWild Heart Society on FacebookWild Heart Society on InstagramResources:The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together, Heather McGheeLGBTQ Students Face Unfair School Discipline, Pushing Many Out of School | GLSENStudy: Black Girls Are Being Pushed Out of School : Code Switch : NPRA Battle for the Souls of Black Girls
What if we stopped trying to treat everybody the same and started treating everyone as they are? In today's episode, Dr. Lee dives into intersectionality, marginalized identities, and trauma.

It's official, the doors to The Heart Lab are open for one last time in 2021. I could sit here and chatter at you about what it's all about, but honestly, these two women say it better than I can. Because they've felt the transformations that happen when a community of aligned women come together. Gathering in Circles is something that our feminine ancestors knew how to do, but in our modern world, these opportunities to gather and truly open up and reveal ourselves is rare. When we gather in a container rooted in the power of our femininity, it is not to create a hierarchy or competition, it is simply to witness, to hold and to nurture one another so we can each uncover our own sovereign strength. Jackie Chuang and Lauren Sessa are graduates of the 2020 Circle of The Heart Lab and they are here to share what they learned from the program, but most importantly, they are here to share what they learned from sharing their own stories and witnessing each other in our weekly group coaching ceremonies. What You'll Learn in this Episode: Why highly driven, independent women need community to heal traumaThe burnout cycle of over-giving and validation How the culture of accountability in a community leads to safetyHow the frequency of love comes alive in safe community that allows you to witness your own humanity and stop minimizing your own experience Why we need different medicines for different emotionsListen to this Episode if: You are curious about about the healing dynamics of being in co-regulation with communityResources:"The Gifts of Imperfection” by Brene Brown Ph.D LMSW “Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle” by Amelia Nagoski Ph.D and Emily Nagoski DMAYour Speakers:Kat Lee is an Intimacy + Relationship Coach, host of The Empowered Curiosity Podcast and Creator of The Heart Lab.

In This Episode You'll Hear About:What it was like for Achal to grow up in a family of doctors and health care professionals with roots both in India and in the US and how much he learned from being a part of such a family legacyHow his first jobs were scanning patient charts in order to convert them to digital and then working at Subway as a Sandwich ArtistWhat his work at Deloitte was like and why meeting his Co-Founder then created a strong partnership that led to the idea and creation of CabinetWhat convictions led to Achal and Russ deciding that they could bring about innovation in using sustainable options for packaging and why it is so important to themWhy batch level testing is so important and a vital part of how Cabinet ensures product quality and safetyHow fundraising has gone and what valuable lessons he has learned along the way, which has led to wonderful financial partnershipsWhat great advice Achal has for hiring and maintaining a cohesive company culture, even involving various team members in the hiring process who can help keep the cultural fit clear with new hiresWhat routines and mindsets he operates in daily in order to keep himself balanced and work through the highs and lows of being a Co-Founder/CEO and building a company with a great impactHow he has grown from a Founder into a CEO and why he sees those roles as different with a different set of needs at a different timeTo Find Out More:CabinetHealth.com Quotes:“My vantage point is, if you build a business, especially in the world of health care, that isn't prioritizing consumers' well-being, then that's directly oppositional to the purpose of being a business.”“I think our physical health and the environment around us are inextricably linked. And yet in the world of health care, there are no sustainable options today.”“It's exceptionally complex to innovate in this space. The supply chains are global. They're fragmented. Bringing more sustainable products to market requires regulatory expertise, requires buy-in from your entire supply chain.”“Being able to call someone who actually believes in you as a person, and not just the business, has been fundamentally important to our well-being and our success over the last few years.”“Reflect on why you are raising money before you go and raise capital.”“If you sell a product, it makes money, really think twice about why you're raising and if there are ways that are not just focused on a more heavily equity driven route that could actually enable you to be more successful in the long run.”“Your goal when you're fundraising is to gain momentum. And so really what you're looking for is not necessarily the check itself immediately, but the commitment that the investor will participate in the round.”“Don't get too caught up in setting a valuation or in some of the caveats the investors give you. Focus on getting the dollar commitment and you'll find that the rest of those contingencies typically fall away as a round comes together.”“Being a CEO... I fundamentally have three responsibilities. The first is setting a clear vision for our team and the strategy that goes with that. Secondly, making sure we actually have the right team in place, making sure that they're taken care of... And then third, making sure we don't run out of money or that we're making enough money to support that team.”“Building this company is my opportunity to continue the legacy of my family in the world of medicine to help people live healthier, happier lives, fundamentally building a more sustainable health care company.”“When you feel that you don't really care if you're going to hit barriers or failures otherwise and you're going to build that thing, I think that's when you found the correct why for yourself.”
