If you've ever swallowed your needs, kept the peace, and then randomly lost your shit over something tiny (hi, dirty spoon in the sink), this episode is for you. Therapist and author Tonya Lester is here to talk about conflict, boundaries, and what it really means to be “difficult” in a world that still rewards women for being nice, accommodating, and endlessly available. Tonya is the therapist women call when they're done being walked on. A Brooklyn-based psychotherapist with decades of clinical experience, she specializes in women's emotional health, conflict skills, and relationships. We dig into why so many women default to do nothing → do nothing → do nothing → FREAK OUT, how to stop building silent resentment brick by brick, and what it looks like to push back early and often—in love, in work, and in every relationship that actually matters. This is real-talk conflict management for women who are done disappearing to keep everyone else comfortable. In this episode, we get into: Why “being difficult” is actually a compliment when it means being honest, boundaried, and real The subtle ways women suppress their needs in relationships, families, and at work (while telling themselves “it's not a big deal”) The do-nothing-do-nothing-freak-out pattern—and how to catch yourself before you emotionally flip a table How to say hard things clearly and calmly: phrases you can steal for your next conflict at home or in the office The difference between healthy anger and full-on rage (and why anger is often a sign you still care) When ultimatums do have a place—and when they're just emotional terrorism How to stop over-functioning in your relationships (aka rowing both oars while the other person “rests”) What to do when your partner, boss, or friend refuses to collaborate—and how to decide if it's time to stay, shift, or go Tiny, doable ways to practice pushing back if you're conflict-avoidant but deeply over people-pleasing If standing up for yourself has ever been labeled “too much,” this conversation will help you see that maybe the problem isn't you—it's the system that benefits from you staying small.

Anna Rollins, author of "Famished," joins us for an honest conversation about the intersection of purity culture, eating, body image, and sexual intimacy in marriage in general and especially Christian marriage. We explore what happened in the Christian movement around weight and body image that went beyond general cultural dysfunction and became particularly harmful in church spaces, such as Anna's church creating an eating based programs as she talks about here in and in her book. Drawing on research from Sheila Wray Gregoire's survey of 20,000 women (one of our favorite past guests), Anna unpacks the connection between body shame and sexual intimacy, including the often-hidden correlation between body shame and painful sex that many women don't realize exists. She shares her personal journey of moving from controlling her body through over-exercising to actually caring for and stewarding it well, how she's parenting with intention, and how her relationship with her body has drawn her at first farther but ultimately closer, ultimately, back to God. This conversation is essential for anyone navigating body image in marriage or raising children in the intersection of faith and culture.

The British poet Raymond Antrobus was six years old when his parents and doctors realized that his ears couldn't recognize a whole range of sounds. He was fitted with hearing aids and began a life of straddling the Deaf and hearing worlds, going to speech therapy and reading lips, learning British sign language, and attending both Deaf and hearing schools. By necessity, Raymond became an expert in communication and miscommunication, which are recurring themes in his poetry.  This week, Anna talks to Raymond about his memoir The Quiet Ear: An Investigation of Missing Sound and what it was like growing up with a “panicky sensitivity to misunderstandings.” This episode was produced by Cameron Drews.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ Episode Description In this Sex with Emily episode, Dr. Emily sits down with Liz Moody—bestselling author, podcast host, and the woman who turned her life around from severe agoraphobia to help others level up their lives with science-backed strategies. The morbid exercise that Liz swears by for making better decisions in bed and everywhere else—and why thinking about your 85-year-old self might be the permission slip you need to stop worrying about how your thighs look in those pants. Why "friends with benefits" might mean something completely different to you than it does to your partner—and the crucial conversation most couples skip before slapping labels on their relationship (spoiler: this applies to marriage too). The biggest myth about what makes someone "good" in bed, and why Liz believes your sex life can transform no matter where you're starting from. That one body part you've never considered an erogenous zone—until Liz reveals hers and suddenly you're rethinking everything you thought you knew about turn-ons. The real reason habits fail (hint: it's not about willpower)—and why letting go of routines that once served you doesn't make you a failure, it makes you self-aware. Plus: the conversation starter deck that's saving marriages by getting couples on the same page about money, desire, childhood trauma, and the question "how much do you need to feel safe?" that revealed way more than Liz expected.

In today's episode of The Jimmy Rex Show, Jimmy sits down with Amanda Kroepfl, one of the top sex and relationship coaches working today. Amanda has coached several members of Jimmy's community, she has spoken at We Are The They events, and the feedback has always been incredible. So Jimmy brought her on the podcast to talk openly and honestly about sex, intimacy, attraction, communication, and everything couples struggle with but rarely discuss.Amanda breaks down why it's so difficult for couples to talk about sex, why belief systems from childhood and religion shape adulthood intimacy, and how unspoken expectations quietly damage relationships. She explains the “squirrels” that hijack the brain, the role of masculine and feminine energy, scheduling sex, aftercare, fantasies, porn, nervous-system regulation, repairing a sexless marriage, and how partners can create safety instead of pressure.Jimmy shares his own experiences—from leaving a strict religious upbringing, to hiring sex coaches, to navigating shame and redefining intimacy in a healthy way. The conversation is raw, honest, and designed to help couples finally understand what's really going on beneath the surface. This episode is for married couples, people dating, men in Jimmy's community, and anyone who wants more connection, better communication, and a happier sex life. Find Amanda:Instagram: @amandakroepflWebsite: amandakroepfl.com Jimmy's Instagram: https://instagram.com/mrjimmyrexJimmy's TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@mrjimmyrexJimmy's YouTube: https://youtube.com/@mrjimmyrex Subscribe for more real conversations around relationships, personal development, and becoming the best version of yourself.

CW: abortionMary B is joined by Dr. Sara Moslener to discuss her new book After Purity: Race, Sex, and Religion in White Christian America. Moslener traces her journey from a high school defender of purity culture to a scholar with a nuanced understanding of how the myth of purity has helped mask elements of white supremacy as Christian values. She reflects on the power of myth as a storytelling tool that — depending on its intent — can yield positive or harmful results. Mary B relates this to the ways myths are being used by the most powerful in this country to attack trans folks. Moselener urges that although much of her research is from the point of view of white women, sexual purity must be considered in an intersectional way. Sara J. Moslener (she/her) is a lecturer in the Department of Philosophy, Anthropology, and Religion at Central Michigan University. She is the author of Virgin Nation: Sexual Purity and American Adolescence and creator of the podcast Pure White: Sexual Purity and White Supremacy. She lives in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, with her best friend and soulmate, Gibson the Chug.You can get After Purity wherever you buy books.

The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host "Sex Basics That Drive Your Man Wild” explores the foundational pieces of sex that every woman should understand if she wants to create deeper pleasure and connection with her man. Many listeners search for simple sex explanations, such as “What is a blow job, and how do I do it?” because sex can feel confusing or overwhelming without clear guidance. This episode demystifies sex by breaking down the essentials men respond to most—emotionally, physically, and energetically—so you can confidently connect with your man in ways that feel natural, loving, and powerfully arousing. Rather than focusing on performance, pressure, or perfection, we explore how small shifts in energy, awareness, and touch can make your man feel desired, seen, and erotically ignited. These are the real “basics”—the underestimated skills that turn intimacy into something memorable and meaningful. 10 Main Points We Will Explore: Presence Breath Connection Eye Contact Your Voice Praise & Affirmation Slow, Deliberate Touch Curiosity & Questions: like “What is a blow job, and how do I do it?” Receiving Pleasure Confidence & Relaxed Body Language Join Milica Jelenic, Holistic Health Practitioner, Sex & Intimacy Coach, on this episode of The Pleasure Zone where we will uncover “Sex Basics That Truly Drive Your Man Wild.” Grab your Yes, No, Maybe list - all about Playful Tips for Pleasure here    Light From The Shadows: Enriching The Lives Of Others Inspired Choices Network Hosts Author Milica Jelenic   Amazon.com – https://www.amazon.com/dp/1738249417 Amazon.ca – https://www.amazon.ca/dp/1738249417     ~ More About The Pleasure Zone ~ Milica Jelenic is a Sex & Intimacy Coach. What is pleasure? Have you ever noticed that what is pleasing to one body is not necessarily pleasing to all bodies? What if our bodies like to be pleasing and to gift pleasure to others and to receive pleasure? In this show we will explore the world of pleasure. If your body was sensing pleasure more often would your life have more ease? We start out with magical little bodies that turn on everybody. Babies are always having people come up to them and compliment them on their beauty and get really excited to be in their presence.

We got an update about "aphantasia," the condition where you cannot see mental images, and now we're wondering if we're the weird ones because the way we see the images is apparently strange??? We think we are on the precipice of a scientific discovery that will be named after us. Susie talks about a man who had his wife cryogenically frozen, but now it's awkward because he got a new girlfriend, so hopefully they don't bring the wife back to life or he's going to have a lot of explaining to do. We hear why female scuba divers are better than their male counterparts, and Sarah is soooo happy. We learn about a woman who was stabbed to death (including in the back) and authorities are still claiming it was a suicide. Predictably, Sarah's got a theory. Plus, we learn about a "reparations happy hour" where people of color drink for free thanks to donations from white people who aren't allowed to come, and we debate whether this is a good or bad idea.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

We're getting unapologetically muscular today. Former Wall Street Journal reporter turned professional bodybuilder Anne-Marie Chaker joins us to talk about why women's strength training is not a vanity play—it's a longevity strategy, a confidence accelerator, and a rebellion against “shrink yourself” culture. In this episode, we dig into:

It seems too soon, but we're already talking about the fourth book in the Star Kingdom series: A New Clan, once again written by David Weber and Jane Lindskold. If there was a sassy tag line taken from the summary of the book, it's “Sex! Drugs! Rock and Roll! And Treecats!”Published in June 2022, we're hit with 420 pages full of fresh, new adventures in the Honorverse. As we mentioned in the podcast, there's now also a fifth book in this series. We'll certainly cover that when the time comes.While our treecat friends are a key part of the story, here we're following Stephanie and friends as they find themselves involved in uncovering the details behind what may be an illegal drug ring. Is this Forestry Service work? Not necessarily, but this well-written story comfortably explains how Probationary Ranger Harrington along with colleagues and friends find themselves involved in determining if a new drug in what is the beginning of common use has ties to a number of accidents involving other youths. Needless to say, things get messy and a little ugly, quickly. These “kids” are growing up!After seeing the Rangers and Stephanie involved in significant wildfires previously, this is an interesting adventure as forestry work takes a side seat to more traditional law enforcement business in what is revealed to be a somewhat gray area. Like the others in this series, A New Clan is written with a young adult audience in mind, but still a good read for fans of any age. As always, we discuss our pros and cons with this novel from our perspective as Honorverse fans and hope you join right in with us.We rated A New Clan with a 4, another 4 and a 3.5 (out of 5), for an overall rating of 3.8.As always, thank you for listening and big thanks to those of you who also take the time to like and follow us on social media, to comment on our posts or even reach out to us with a longer note. At the end of this show we truly enjoy when we can read your comments and questions. Please keep them coming!Next time on the Honorverse Today podcast, we're turning our attention to Shadow of Freedom by David Weber. This book is the third novel in the Saganami Island sequence. We hope you grab it, read it, and find a friend to join us on the continuing adventure through the Honorverse!You can find us, and all our episodes at http://honorverse.net, and email us at honorverse@tpenetwork.com. We look forward to hearing from you.Now, let's be about it!

This week, I'm getting into the stress and excitement of planning my birthday trip to Dallas, including trying to find a place to stay. Between all the options and my standards, I'm starting to wonder if I'm too picky… but honestly, I've earned it.I also touch on a small issue at work before getting into how cute (and chaotic) my weekend really was. My best friend proposed to her girlfriend, love was absolutely in the air. I went to my first Black Market party, and from there, the night escalated, eventually landing me at the Red Door.Sunday was calmer with a movie date, but Monday? Baby. I went on an actual date and found out this man is verse in the bedroom… and I'm still deciding how I feel about that.Between birthday plans, bad decisions, love, nightlife, and bedroom thoughts, I was definitely acting badly this weekend — and I have questions.

"Most of our stress in life comes from all of the incompletions in our lives."  A man becomes hard to shake when he learns to clean up the small things: his word, his boundaries, and the promises he keeps. Strength shows up in clarity, not noise. When a man knows what he can take on—and what he can't—life stops pulling him off centre. This episode leans into the quiet disciplines that make a man steady from the inside out.  Bruce Muzik shares insights from years working inside one of the toughest personal-development environments on the planet. He talks about learning to tell the truth early, set boundaries with power instead of fear, and choose service when life feels heavy. His stories hint at how discipline, honesty, and structure shape a man who can stand firm under pressure.  Bruce is a relationship educator and transformation coach known for helping couples strengthen connection and communication. He splits his time between South Africa and the Dominican Republic, teaches globally, and brings a grounded, no-nonsense approach to personal integrity and relational leadership.  Learn more & connect:   Bruce is known as the 'Relationship Repair Expert'.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ Episode Description In this Sex with Emily episode, Dr. Emily and producer Erica tackle your trickiest relationship and sex questions—and some of these situations are messier than you think. The wife having sex 5+ times a week who's being pressured to set midnight alarms so her husband can wake her up for more—why this isn't about frequency at all, and the real need he's actually trying to fill. That guy who insists oral sex should only happen "on special occasions" because it gets "taken for granted": what this scarcity mindset reveals about his past relationships, his skill anxiety, or his actual preference—and whether this is a dealbreaker you're discovering early. The biological reason men wake up ready for sex in the middle of the night while their partners are deep asleep—and why disrupting your sleep hygiene to feel "desired" is a Band-Aid on a much deeper issue. When your partner believes doing something too often creates expectations they can't meet: the philosophy problem that shows up in bed and everywhere else, and what "taken for granted" really means about their view on compliments, effort, and intimacy. Why oral sex as foreplay is the norm, not the exception—and how to navigate a partner who sees it as the main event that loses its magic with repetition. Plus: the conversation framework for exploring where your partner's sexual beliefs actually come from, and why the first few months of dating are just data collection on whether you're actually compatible.

In today's episode we are discussing sex and spirituality. Sex and religion are often clashing ideals that can be shaming, rigid and rule-based. We invite listeners to explore the space between, where sex is an intimate connection between partners. Where people can create their own slice of heaven. Join our hosts, Laurie and George as they peel back the complicated layers between sex and spirituality and cite various views of sex from different religions. Many religious teachings try to show partners how to love one another better, honor their sexual connection as a way to be closer to God and provide boundaries to keep that connection sacred. There is no right or wrong answer in this discussion, rather a thought-provoking conversation to see where spirituality and the connection to the spirit and soul shows up in your intimate connection. Do you consider sex a place to transcend with your partner?  Let us know what you think and share your comments on our instagram @bravelovegreatsex Check out this episode's sponsor (and suport the pod!): Uberlube.com -- Laurie's absolute long-time favorite lube, from way before the podcast began!

People’s definitions of cheating are evolving. Infidelity isn't just about physical betrayal anymore. It's emotional, it's digital, and sometimes it doesn't even involve another human at all. In today’s show, we’re diving into the new rules of cheating. We’re also going to talk about how modern technology is making it harder than ever to keep infidelity a secret. I am joined once again by Dr. Amanda Gesselman a research scientist and head of the VIBES research team at the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University. Digital intimacy is a major focus of her research, including how people use tools like camsites, AI companions, dating apps, and social media to navigate connection and desire. Some of the specific topics we explore in this episode include: What do people today think “counts” as cheating? Is watching porn a form of infidelity? What about sexting with an AI chatbot? How many people suspect a partner has cheated on them before? What kind of detective work do people do to determine if a partner has cheated? How do we balance the benefits and challenges of digital intimacy? To learn more, you can read a brief report of this study here. Got a sex question?

Regret clings to her like sea salt, and as she stands on the beach, her heart breaks for the love she lost.

Finn's spirit calls to her, weaving a tale of love intertwined with BDSM and longing that transcends the physical realm.In a journey filled with tearjerking revelations and tantalizing encounters, Tess must confront the truth of Finn's demise and the powerful connection that binds them—one that could either set her free or drown her in desire forever. Join Tess as she navigates the stormy waters of love, loss, and the supernatural, discovering that some ties can never be severed, and the heart's deepest yearnings can lead to the most unexpected places. Will she find closure, or will she drown in the depths of her desire?

We don't sleep in the same bed. And honestly? Best decision we ever made.I know what you're thinking. You're giving me that look, the one everyone gives us when we mention we sleep in separate rooms. But here's what they don't tell you: if you're not getting sleep, you're not showing up as your best self. Not in your relationship. Not in your life. Not anywhere.In this raw (and way too honest) episode of Toxic-Free with KB, I'm sitting down with my husband Jason Middleton to spill all the tea on our relationship. How we met. Why our third date was couples therapy. The chaos of blending families. And yeah, why we built a literal pillow wall between our beds at a fancy hotel last weekend. We talk about the real stuff nobody wants to say out loud.This isn't a highlight reel. This is the unfiltered, messy, hilarious truth about what it actually takes to stay together when life gets hard.What We Cover:●     Why we don't sleep in the same bed (and why it works)●     How our third date was couples therapy (and why it was the most important date)●     Why judgment kills relationships faster than anything else●     How to maintain independence while staying close●     Why communication is the number one killer (or savior) of relationships●     Blending families: What worked, what didn't, and the lessons learned●     The decision not to have kids together (and why it's okay to choose differently)●     How to know when a relationship is over (and how to exit with grace)This is what a real relationship looks like. No filters. No BS. Just two people who chose each other and keep choosing each other every single day.✨ Watch the full episode! FOLLOW USInstagram:  https://www.instagram.com/toxicfree.kb TikTok:  https://www.tiktok.com/@toxicfreewithkb  SHOP My Favorite Clean Living & Wellness Products:MASA Chips (25% OFF) – Code: TOXICFREEKBhttps://www.masachips.com/TOXICFREEKBVANDY Crisps (25% OFF) – Code: TOXICFREEKBhttps://vandycrisps.com/TOXICFREEKBLightStim (10% OFF) – Code: TOXICFREEKBhttps://LightStim.comSunlighten Saunas – Code: TOXICFREEKBhttps://get.sunlighten.com/toxicfreekbDelavie Science Skincare (25% OFF) – Code: TOXICFREEhttps://delaviesciences.pxf.io/c/2328...Branch Basics (15% OFF Starter Kits) – Code: TOXICFREEKBhttps://branchbasics.com/TOXICFREEKB More recommendations at:https://toxicfree.com

Have you ever wanted a bed for your phone? Do you live in the United Arab Emirates? Well, you're in luck. Ikea has the perfect thing for you. We discuss Nike's latest product that makes it easier to walk for people who were not having trouble walking (??). We created the perfect foot race, and it involves flip-flops, margaritas, and fun for the whole family. This might be our best idea yet. We learn why horses got domesticated and zebras didn't, and we also realize zebras are the reality tv personaliteis of the animal kingdom (in the worst way). We find out why octopuses are more similar to humans than we realized, except for how they might be aliens. Plus, we discuss a boy who was kidnapped that was released because he annoyed the hell out of his captors, and we stan.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For a limited time, get 60% off your first order, plus free shipping, when you head to https://www.smalls.com/BRAINCANDYGet 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpodHead to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for up to 40% off — just be sure to place your order by December 12th for guaranteed Christmas delivery.

This episode is brought to you by Joymode, Strong Coffee Company and Cured Nutrition. In this high-energy and revealing episode, intimacy expert Dr. Susan Bratton, PhD joins us to explain why great sex is not just pleasurable — it's powerful. We explore how optimizing your sex life is the "fourth health factor" that most high achievers overlook, yet it plays a critical role in cognitive sharpness, hormone balance, longevity, and emotional resilience. Susan breaks down the science of pleasure, the importance of blood flow and nitric oxide, the difference between male and female arousal timing, and why communication is the foundation of great sex. From libido botanicals to red light therapy to "sexual biohacking," this episode is a no-BS guide to upgrading your health, relationships, and self-confidence — inside and outside the bedroom. "Sex is the fourth health factor. The longer you have hot, orgasmic sex, the longer, healthier, and happier your life is."

Sarah Amos says the best way to describe her childhood is as a “nepo-baby fever dream.” She grew up in a pink mansion in Hawaii where celebrities often dropped by, and the fridge was always stocked with cookie dough made from her father's famous recipe. Wally Amos founded Famous Amos cookies in 1975, but by the time Sarah was in middle school, he had sold the company and their house was in foreclosure. As Sarah grew up, her father never stopped chasing the success he'd once had with Famous Amos, a pursuit that pushed them apart.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ Episode Description In this Sex with Emily episode, Dr. Emily breaks down what's really happening in your body during orgasm—and why you might not even know if you've had one. The physical signs that prove you're orgasming—even when there's no "explosive release" moment, and why your experience might look nothing like what you've been told to expect. That partner who goes full jackhammer the entire time: the exact conversation framework to redirect them without crushing their ego—and why most people need those fast strokes eventually, just not the whole damn time. A listener whose new partner believes orgasms damage your mental health and relationships—what this anti-climax philosophy gets right about connection, and what the science actually says about orgasms strengthening your bond. The guilt trap of needing fantasy to finish during oral: why your imagination became your default pathway to orgasm, and the five-senses technique that retrains your brain to stay present with your partner instead. How to find your G-area (because it's not a "spot"): the exact finger motion, positions, and toy shapes that actually work—and why this spongy tissue is just your internal clitoris showing up to the party. Plus: what squirting really is, why dry orgasms happen, and the neural pathway secret that means you can learn to orgasm in completely different ways than you do now.

Daniel Brook and Brandy Schillace trace the life and legacy of Magnus Hirschfeld, the so-called "Einstein of Sex," from his pioneering Institute for Sexual Science to the Nazis parading his severed likeness at the 1933 book burning. They dig into the longer prehistory of Weimar queer politics and antisemitism, discussing how obsessions with masculinity and "degeneracy" turned sexuality into a political weapon. Plus: Donald Trump's astonishing pardon of convicted Honduran ex-president Juan Orlando Hernández, and a spiel on what Marjorie Taylor Greene's resignation actually says about her district.
