In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, Dr. Kelly Casperson sits down with Lara Pack, founder of Elixir Play, to explore why it's time to take vibrators seriously—as both a pleasure tool and a legitimate part of women's health. Lara opens up about her personal journey from navigating painful sex due to endometriosis to creating a high-quality vibrator company focused on thoughtful design and real-world results.

They also dive into: The surprising interest from men in women's pleasure products Challenges with big-name companies entering the vibrator market The role of communication in improving sexual wellness Why research matters when it comes to vibrators and health outcomes How well-designed pleasure products can meet diverse needs This conversation is a must-listen for anyone ready to challenge outdated norms, elevate the discussion around women's pleasure, and embrace vibrators as a powerful tool for healing, connection, and empowerment.

Key Points:George's background and servicesGeorge introduces himself as a 52-year-old male escort who provides a "sensual and caring" connection for women, often those who have not had intimacy for a long time. He explains that his services go beyond just physical intimacy, and that he aims to provide tenderness, affection, and a safe space for his clients.Addressing the loneliness epidemic Cam notes that George's services seem to address a significant need, as many women experience loneliness, especially those living alone. George agrees, stating that his clients often crave basic human touch and connection that they are missing in their daily lives.Debunking misconceptions about escort workCam acknowledges that there are many misconceptions about what escort work entails, with the assumption that it is purely transactional. George emphasizes that for him, the emotional and companionship aspects are far more important than the physical, and that he aims to provide a truly caring and nurturing experience for his clients.Navigating boundaries and authenticityGeorge discusses how he maintains boundaries and authenticity in his work, noting that while he uses a pseudonym, he is largely the same person in his personal life as he is with clients. He explains the importance of understanding each client's needs and desires in order to provide the best possible experience.Destigmatizing women seeking male escort services George believes that the key to destigmatizing women seeking male escort services is for women to feel empowered to acknowledge and embrace their desires, without shame or judgment. He advocates for more open and honest conversations around intimacy and human connection.Closing thoughts on kindness and curiosityIn closing, George emphasizes the importance of being kind, curious, and attentive in relationships, both personal and professional. He believes that these qualities are the foundation for meaningful connections and fulfilling experiences.Relevant linksGeorge Goulburn's Website:https://www.georgegoulburn.com/

Dez's experience sheds light on the diverse spectrum of autism, encouraging listeners to rethink preconceived notions and embrace a more inclusive perspective.Navigating the labyrinth of mental health diagnoses, Dez recounts his tumultuous path, initially misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder before his eventual autism diagnosis provided clarity and understanding. This revelation was transformative, especially as he prepared for parenthood, and highlights the need for neurodivergent-informed mental health services. The episode delves into the additional layers of ADHD and racial trauma, revealing the complexities of Dez's journey and underscoring the necessity for tailored support systems and continued research in these areas.Art emerges as a beacon of expression and empowerment throughout Dez's life. By harnessing the power of creative outlets like the Pixart app, Dez channels his focus and manages mental exhaustion, finding solace and self-discovery in the process. His artistic endeavors are not just personal but also societal, as he works to establish a neurodivergent art focus group in a maximum security prison and prepares for a solo exhibition in Manchester. Dez's story is a testament to the transformative power of art, and he invites listeners to share their own stories, reinforcing the message that no one is alone in this journey.https://tonymantor.comhttps://Facebook.com/tonymantorhttps://instagram.com/tonymantorhttps://twitter.com/tonymantorhttps://youtube.com/tonymantormusicintro/outro music bed written by T.

They explore the stigma surrounding mental health issues, reflecting on how past generations often swept these concerns under the rug, leading to a culture of silence.

Ultimately, the conversation underscores that no one should navigate their struggles alone, and reaching out can pave the way for healing and understanding.Takeaways: Mental health is a crucial topic that should be openly discussed within the Christian community.

Send us a textHave you ever considered that the path to healing might be quicker than you think? We're diving into the transformative world of psychedelics and how they're changing the landscape of mental health. While some see these substances as a shortcut, we argue they're more of a catalyst in a journey requiring self-awareness and introspection. Join us as we explore the benefits of psychedelics alongside traditional practices like meditation, and challenge long-held beliefs that only arduous journeys lead to healing.We also tackle the generational shift in mental health perspectives. Why do younger generations embrace mental health awareness more readily than their predecessors? We delve into how unresolved traumas can perpetuate cycles of suffering across generations and stress the importance of addressing these issues now. Through this understanding, we aim to break the stigmas that shroud mental health and promote a society where emotional well-being is prioritized over financial success.Lastly, we redefine what it means to be successful and happy in today's fast-paced world. Do we truly need to sacrifice one for the other? Reflecting on insights from thought leaders like Chris Williamson and Freud, we propose a more harmonious approach to life where self-love isn't selfish but essential for genuine connection. As we share personal anecdotes, we encourage our listeners to embrace self-reflection and validation from within, paving the way for deeper relationships and a more fulfilling life.
