This week on No Hard Feelings, Josh and Cass deep-dive into the wild world of eye gonorrhea (yes, really), herpes stats that’ll make you double-check everyone you’ve kissed, and one listener’s eternal quest to stop dating fuckheads. Cass wonders if the problem might actually be... her. They also chat about Australia’s awkward relationship with compliments, the top 6 hottest hobbies men can have (spoiler: podcasting didn’t make the cut), and the surprisingly wholesome “invisible string theory.” Cass opens up about not wanting kids, dealing with society’s side-eye, and feeling solid in her choice. Plus — a brand new segment: Nervous Calls, where Josh and Cass make the uncomfortable phone calls you’re too scared to do yourself. Buckle up.

Die lebenslange Monogamie ist vom Aussterben bedroht, soviel ist sicher. Aber wie heißt das jetzt nochmal? Serielle Monogamie? Polygamie? Polyamorie? Beziehungsanarchie? Offene Beziehung? Wilde Ehe? Scheinmonogamie mit Fremdgang? Wie ist euer Beziehungsstatus? Es ist kompliziert, wusste schon Facebook – ebenfalls vom Aussterben bedroht – darum haben wir uns gedacht, wir quatschen mal von Pärchen zu Pärchen, aber natürlich auch in unserer Rolle als Tantralehrende, Paar- & Beziehungscoaches, über die Praxis des Wilden Lebens, die Welt der Wilden Ehe oder was immer Paar gerade lebt und erforscht. Wir sprechen über Erfahrungen, Momente von Licht und Schatten, große Gefühle, kleine Alltagsdinge, Wünsche, Ängste, Konsequenzen… Es gibt viel zu reden! Esther und Martin haben sich bei Wild Life Tantra gefunden und üben seither die Liebe miteinander, aber nicht nur zu zweit. Wir nehmen das zum Anlass, mit ihnen über den Zoo der Beziehungsmodelle zu sprechen. Übrigens: Die Pärchengespräche sollen eine neue Serie werden im Wild Life Podcast, darum, liebe Pärchen, meldet euch, wenn ihr dabei sein wollt!

This week, a chilling case in Melbourne has put the issue of child sex abuse into the national spotlight. A childcare worker has been charged with allegedly abusing young children in his care, leading to 1200 families being urged to have their young children tested for STIs. IN 2022, LiSTNR released the critically acclaimed podcast documentary series The Children in the Pictures, which exposed the silent epidemic of online child sex abuse. In light of recent events, we’re revisiting this crucial topic by bringing you episode 8, in which host Akhim Dev speaks with leading police and experts in the field. They give important insights and strategies we can take to better protect our children in an increasingly vulnerable world.

In April 2025, some organizations and health centers receiving Title X funding were given sudden notice by the current administration that critical funding would be withheld. This action by the federal government threatens roughly $65.8 million in Title X funds and implicates an estimated 846,000 patients. It has resulted in massive layoffs, stopped contracts, mental strain, and confusion for both employees and patients. As patients are not receiving the care they need due to a stop in funding, possible results could include rising rates of unintended pregnancies, rising rates of STIs, poorer maternal health outcomes, and later diagnoses of breast and cervical cancers.  We sit down with co-founders and executive directors of some of these impacted organizations, including: Michelle Trupiano, Executive Director for the Missouri Family Health Council, andDanielle Lampton, and Jamie Bardwell, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Directors at Converge in Jackson, Mississippi.For more information, check out Aborsh: https://www.aborsh.com/Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Sacramento County Board of Supervisors meeting, primarily focusing on grant allocations, and health initiatives.  A significant portion of the discussion revolves around the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Grant program, with supervisors debating funding distribution to various non-profit organizations and expressing appreciation for their community work, particularly in literacy and homeless services. Another key theme is the state of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in Sacramento County, highlighting high rates, prevention efforts, and the crucial role of the county's sexual health clinic, alongside concerns about potential federal funding cuts. The session concludes with board member comments, including a proposal to explore bringing the Continuum of Care model for homeless services back under county oversight.

In this essential episode of the Sex with Emily podcast, Dr. Emily sits down with Dr. Ina Park, associate professor at UCSF School of Medicine and author of "Strange Bedfellows: Adventures in the Science, History, and Surprising Secrets of STDs." From her early days as a peer educator dressed as a giant condom at UC Berkeley to becoming a leading expert in sexual health, Dr. Park brings both humor and expertise to one of the most stigmatized topics in sexual wellness. We dive deep into the myths and realities surrounding STIs, exploring why HPV is truly "the common cold of the genitals" that nearly everyone will encounter, how herpes stigma far outweighs its actual health impact, and why people who know their status are actually safer partners than those who don't. Dr. Park shares fascinating insights about everything from The Bachelor's problematic STI testing to the connection between pubic hair grooming and infection risk. This conversation tackles the shame and fear that keep us from having honest discussions about sexual health, while providing practical advice on testing, disclosure, and maintaining healthy relationships regardless of STI status. We also explore the vaginal microbiome, why some people are more susceptible to infections, and promising new treatments on the horizon. Key Topics Covered: HPV: Why it's unavoidable and how to think about it differently Herpes disclosure and reducing transmission risk The truth about oral sex and STI transmission Pubic hair, Brazilian waxes, and infection risk Vaginal health and the microbiome Why knowing your status makes you a safer partner Breaking down STI stigma and shame Dr. Park's refreshing approach reminds us that STIs are simply part of being sexually active humans, and that knowledge, communication, and compassion are our best tools for sexual wellness. Show Notes:  00:00:00 - Dr. Park's journey from condom costume to STI expert 07:00:00 - HPV: The common cold of the genitals 14:00:00 - Herpes myths, realities, and disclosure strategies 22:00:00 - Oral sex and STI transmission risks 26:00:00 - Pubic hair grooming and infection risk 31:00:00 - Vaginal microbiome and bacterial balance 36:00:00 - Listener Q&A: Real STI concerns answered 42:00:00 - Breaking stigma and having better conversations This episode emphasizes that sexual health is part of overall wellness, and that honest, shame-free conversations about STIs can transform how we approach intimate relationships.

Dr. Hensley brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to help listeners navigate the complexities of modern romance. In each episode, Dr. Hensley tackles burning questions about love, relationships, and the mind's complexities, drawing from her psychological research, real-life experiences, and her own individual expertise, to provide insightful perspectives and practical advice.Episode 2, Season II | “Pleasure, Not Shame - STD Truths, Healing, and Sexual Empowerment with The Yoni Nutritionist”In this powerful and much-needed episode of The Love Doc Podcast, Dr. Sarah Hensley is joined by a trailblazer in the world of sexual wellness—Adrienne, better known as The Yoni Nutritionist. As a vaginal health nutritionist and sexual health advocate, Adrienne specializes in helping women get to the root of chronic yeast infections and supports both women and men in understanding and managing herpes (HSV) and human papillomavirus (HPV) diagnoses with compassion, knowledge, and zero shame.Together, Dr. Hensley and Adrienne bust some of the biggest myths surrounding STIs and STDs—like the false belief that your sex life is over after a diagnosis or that these infections only happen to people who are “irresponsible.” Spoiler: they don't, and it isn't. With over two-thirds of the population carrying HSV-1 and a staggering number of individuals living with HPV unknowingly, it's time we normalize the conversation around sexual health and stop tying our self-worth to a lab result.Adrienne walks us through what informed, empowered intimacy looks like after an STI/STD diagnosis.

Whether you're currently dealing with symptoms, supporting a partner, or simply want to learn more about your own body, this is the kind of sexual health education we all should have received.Listeners will also gain insight into the often-overlooked connection between the gut microbiome and vaginal health, and how dietary and lifestyle changes can play a significant role in both prevention and symptom management. Adrienne offers a refreshing, body-positive perspective that invites us to release shame, reclaim our sexual agency, and embrace the truth: having an STI or STD does not make you “damaged goods.” You are still fully worthy of love, desire, and pleasure.You won't want to miss this incredibly affirming and informative conversation.

Inside Shameless Care: Revolutionizing Sexual Health Testing shamelesscare.com About the Guest(s): Robert Johnson is the founder of Shameless Care, a pioneering telemedicine company that specializes in delivering sexual healthcare tailored for real-life needs. After a personal experience with an STI test failing to detect an infection, Robert launched Shameless Care to offer comprehensive and judgment-free telemedicine services. His company focuses on thorough STI testing, inclusive of all potential infection sites, and has been leading efforts in providing honest and accessible sexual health resources. Robert's background is steeped in entrepreneurship and he is dedicated to improving healthcare by addressing gaps in traditional testing methods. Episode Summary: In this episode of The Chris Voss Show, listeners embark on an informative journey into the world of telemedicine and sexual health with Robert Johnson, founder of Shameless Care. Highlighted by enlightening anecdotes and expert insights, the conversation navigates through the complexities of STI testing, the rise of telemedicine, and how these innovations are transforming the landscape of sexual healthcare. This episode shines a light on the crucial importance of thorough STI testing, addressing often-overlooked aspects such as oral and anal infection sites that remain asymptomatic and consequently contribute to the spread of infections. Throughout the discussion, Robert Johnson emphasizes Shameless Care's commitment to enhancing sexual health through patient transparency and comprehensive service offerings. With the increasing prevalence of STIs, Robert argues for greater awareness and proactive measures, dispelling myths and shedding light on underrepresented issues within sexual healthcare. This conversation also touches upon societal and technological shifts influencing sexual behavior and healthcare, including how telemedicine is paving new pathways for privacy and honesty in patient-doctor interactions. Through engaging dialogue, the episode underscores the transformative impact and potential of telemedicine in creating a world where sexual health is accessible and stigma-free. Key Takeaways: Comprehensive STI Testing: Shameless Care stands out for its rigorous testing of 14 STIs, including often-neglected sites like the throat and anal areas, which can harbor infections asymptomatically. Privacy and Transparency in Telemedicine: The telemedicine model permits patients to discuss their health issues openly and without judgment, ensuring more accurate diagnoses and appropriate treatments. Prevalence of Asymptomatic Cases: Many STIs present without symptoms; thus, regular and thorough testing is essential for prevention and control. Innovations in Sexual Healthcare: Products like topical Viagra for women and Doxy PEP pills exemplify emerging solutions targeted at enhancing sexual health and prevention. Healthcare Accessibility and Education: Shameless Care's approach is educational and preventative, encouraging personal responsibility and safe sexual practices among users. Notable Quotes: "80% of our positive gonorrhea cases are oral only, caught only with that oral swab." "You can be completely honest with your doctor, and everybody should be honest with their doctor." "It's surprising how many times a married couple will order tests at the same time, get their test results back and not test positive for the same thing." "We're just really proud that we can offer a list of infections to help people get quality testing from their physicians." "Testing thoroughly is one of the most important actions people in the dating pool can take."

In this episode, Valeria sits down with Stassi Schroeder for a conversation that's equal parts hilarious, honest, and unexpectedly deep. They talk about Stassi's early experiences in the spotlight and what it feels like to return to reality TV with Vanderpump Villa after years of personal growth. She opens up about the emotional toll of growing up on camera, how motherhood has changed her, and why she's giving more attention to what matters most now. Stassi shares how writing her latest book helped her rethink ambition, identity, and the myth of balance. She also reveals her decade-long struggle with self-harm and what helped her finally stop. The two dive into joy as a healing practice, the emotional cost of perfectionism, and why fashion is still one of Stassi's favorite forms of self-expression (just don't expect her to wear neon or crop tops). They also get into motherhood, mental health, alone time as a survival tool, and even egg-based spiritual cleansing. This is a layered look at what it really means to evolve, how to stay grounded in chaos, and how to laugh at yourself along the way.

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are more common than you think – but stigma and silence often stand in the way of testing, treatment, and honest conversations. So what happens after a diagnosis? How do we navigate disclosure, dating, and self-worth? We spoke with Emily L. Depasse, MSW, MEd, a leading sex educator, to break down what sexually transmitted infections really are – how they’re spread, the difference between bacterial and viral types, and why many often go undiagnosed. We debunk myths, highlight the importance of early detection, and explore how stigma impacts both public health and personal relationships. We also dive into the emotional side – how to talk about status with partners, tips for dating with an STI, and ways to support friends and loved ones.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever considered that victims of human trafficking might be walking into your clinic, hidden in plain sight, longing for someone to notice their silent signals? In this episode of Pediatric Meltdown, host Dr. Lia Gaggino sits down with Dr. Dena Nazer , a leading child abuse pediatrician, to dispel widespread myths and expose the heartbreaking realities of child trafficking. They dive deeply into what human trafficking truly looks like, why language and empathy shape outcomes, and how pediatricians can recognize and respond to red flags—even when victims don't or can't ask for help. If you've ever wondered how to protect the most vulnerable or questioned your own role in advocacy, this conversation mixes expertise and actionable strategies you can use today. Don't miss this essential episode—sometimes the most critical intervention is simply being prepared to see what others overlook.[00:00 - 06:25] Beyond Kidnapping: The Everyday Reality of Child TraffickingMedia Myths: trafficking is not always dramatic kidnappings—many victims are exploited by someone they know, sometimes in their own homes.Defining human trafficking per US federal law: for children under 18, any commercial sexual act (anything exchanged for perceived value) is trafficking, regardless of force, fraud, or coercion.Labor trafficking in children does require proof of force, fraud, or coercion, unlike sex trafficking.Children cannot legally consent to commercial sexual acts, a fact often misunderstood by practitioners.[06:26 - 18:33] Recognizing Vulnerability: Victims, Prevalence, and Persistent MythsAll children, regardless of socioeconomic status or geography, can be victimized; not just those from impoverished or unstable backgrounds.Adolescents are particularly vulnerable due to developmental, social, and neurological factors—especially girls, though all genders are at risk.The covert nature and underreporting of trafficking, with true prevalence grossly underestimated—actual victims far exceed documented cases.Practitioners should avoid assumptions about victim profiles and recognize that trafficking does not discriminate by background or location.[18:34 -24:41] Language, Reporting, and the Power of EmpathyThere is an impact of language, advocating against terms like "prostitute" or "modern day slavery," as they distort public perception and can harm survivors.There are nuanced preferences between “victim” and “survivor,” emphasizing respect for self-identification.Addresses mandated reporting: outlines state-by-state differences, reminds clinicians to know their local laws, and suggests erring on the side of caution when in doubt.Discusses the complexities of reporting and intervention with 18+ patients, promoting support over “rescue,” and collaboration over dictating solutions.[24:42 - 47:58] Identification, Patient Support, and Multi-Agency CollaborationRed flags in clinical settings: domineering non-parental adults accompanying children, delayed care-seeking, lack of address knowledge, repeated STIs, or signs of fear and withdrawal.Ways to build trust and elicit disclosures: prioritize safety, establish boundaries about reporting, and use risk-factor-based screening questions.Trauma-informed care—responding with empathy, validation, and minimal dramatization—to avoid re-traumatizing patients.Connect with local Child Advocacy Centers and understanding local resources and procedures before a crisis arises.[47:59 - 59:59] Dr. G's TakeAwaysAdditional Resources Mentioned

Send us a text- On-Demand Programme Link - https://mailchi.mp/bb2a7b851246/kairos-centreAlcohol consumption raises women's testosterone levels. Same for men, but with excess, men's levels start to decrease. Not so for women.Women are not use to the effects of such higher levels of testosterone and so a young woman can become a very different sexual being, because of the effects on her sex drive. That is enhanced if she is near her ovulatory window.During their ovulatory window, women are more likely to dress more provocatively and flirtatious. They may not be self aware, as it is an unconscious process.Female anatomy makes them more vulnerable to STIs. The vagina lends itself to bacterial growth and on average, women have a risk increase of 8 times more likelihood of contracting HIV. The risk is 17 times higher during anal sex.Younger and early years sexual behaviours affect women's future health. The risk of uterine, vaginal and cervical cancer is increased. Minimal or no breast feeding raises the likelihood of longer term ovarian cancer.(Interestly data. Don't shoot the messenger will you)?Get some help from The Kairos Centre. See what you cannot see.

In this Healthed lecture, Professor Jason Ong will present, through a series of case studies, what is happening in Australia in terms of STIs - which infections are prevalent, how do they present and who is most at risk. Importantly, Professor Ong will also discuss the latest Australian guideline recommendations on the detection, diagnosis and treatment of patients with an STI in primary care so cases can be identified earlier and the spread of these diseases contained.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Education Minister wants to be the one taking the heat over sex education, not schools. The new draft curriculum is out for the first round of public consultation before it's written up later this year. It proposes children from Year Four learning about consent and gender stereotypes, while high schoolers learn about menstrual cycles and STIs. Erica Stanford told Mike Hosking currently, it's up to principals to go out to their community and specify what's taught. She says ERO reports found that to be very divisive, and sometimes schools and principles faced a lot of aggression from their communities over the content they taught.

It can be increasingly hard to find valid, science-based health guidance in this age of rampant misinformation and now missing information. This episode zooms in on the prevention of pregnancy and STI/STD transmission, one corner of health and sex education that is in the midst of erasure from many government websites. We cover everything from abstinence to barrier methods, hormonal contraception, and IUDs. And if for some reason the content of this podcast gets censored, it's all in our book: This Is So Awkward!

Fact: Your STI doesn't make you ANY less sexy! In today's episode, I'm joined by the author of Strange Bedfellows and medical consultant, Dr. Ina Park who has made it her life's work to reduce the shame and stigma associated with sexually transmitted infections, AKA, STIs. Ina shares everything you need to know if you or someone you're sleeping with is infected, how to reduce your risk of transmission, and when to disclose your status to a partner. We also discuss Ina's #1 tip for STI prevention, what to know about how your personal grooming can impact transmission and a surprising discovery about The Bachelor's casting process. Finally, we answer your questions about transmission through oral sex, when it's possible to get intimate without a condom and why having an STI isn't a death sentence for your relationships. Let's ditch the shame and bring on the sex. In this episode, you'll learn: How to disclose an STI and still have an amazing sex life. Why shaving might increase your STI risk (and how to avoid it). Why HPV is common—and totally manageable. Show Notes: More Dr. Ina Park: Instagram | Website | Twitter (X) Buy Dr. Ina Park's Book, Strange Bedfellows, Today!
