The Pleasure Zone with Milica Jelenic - Diamond Host In this provocative episode of The Pleasure Zone, Milica Jelenic reframes kink as a path to healing, empowerment, and embodiment—not as something “dirty” or deviant. If you've ever felt shame about your desires or struggled to express your authentic erotic self, this episode is your invitation to curiosity and compassion. Kink can be a mirror, a ritual, and even a spiritual practice. When practiced with awareness and consent, it can offer profound nervous system regulation, intimacy, and reclamation of choice. In this episode, you'll explore: *What kink really is and how it supports healing. *How taboo desires often point toward unmet needs or unresolved emotions. *Consent, negotiation, and the power of conscious play. *Why kink can be profoundly therapeutic when approached mindfully. Whether you're a seasoned kinkster or kink-curious, this conversation is for anyone ready to explore the freedom and healing within their desires.

Babies are always having people come up to them and compliment them on their beauty and get really excited to be in their presence. What would the world be like if we stopped judging ourselves, our bodies and others? How much more fun, joy and pleasure is possible on this planet if we choose to be explorers? Whose ready for an adventure??? Milica Jelenic is an advocate for pleasure. In her private practice she invites clients to create life and lifestyle that offers more pleasure and vitality.

Tobin and Leroy were shocked when Brittney admitted she had no idea who Jim Leyland is — and you already know what that means… she had to put herself in the box! Safe to say, she wasn't thrilled. Thankfully, she redeemed herself slightly by proving she does know the legend Howard Schnellenberger. But that was just the beginning... The silly sauce was flowing in the final hour as Froggboy hosted a revolutionary edition of Radio Taboo — a battle of the sexes showdown with Jfig and Brittney vs. Tobin and Leroy. The trash talk? Elite. The guesses? Questionable. The laughter? Non-stop.
In this episode, we dive into the complexities of discussing taboo health topics like vomit, poop, and body image, thanks to inspiration from a podcast episode of Mushroom Case Daily by ABC, covering the Erin Patterson mushroom case. We reflect on societal judgments around weight loss surgery and the nuances of body image, and bring into focus how avoiding these conversations can lead to untreated chronic health issues. From detailing the perfect poop to discussing how health stigma affects well-being, join us for a lighter-than-usual but still insightful look at the nuances in naturopathy (and how 2 naturopaths naturally react to mainstream news!)~TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Introduction and Taboo Health Topics01:07 Podcast Introduction and Disclaimer03:39 Mushroom Case and Legal Proceedings07:15 Body Image and Weight Loss Surgery18:18 Eating Disorders and Mental Health27:29 Understanding Body Regulation27:48 Disordered Eating and Support Resources28:39 The Bristol Stool Chart30:25 Facing the Poop33:42 The Perfect Poop36:54 Diarrhea and Its Implications41:05 Natural Therapies in Hospitals44:53 Engaging with Listeners~Butterfly FoundationTake a look at the Bristol Stool Chart here.Reach out to the Nuanced Naturopaths here!

This time, we'll go deep on his writing process and the process of psychoanalyzing himself and the characters he creates. Plus, the story of how he once helped solve a murder.We'll have that conversation in just a minute. First — if you're enjoying The Sewers of Paris, I hope you'll consider supporting the show on Patreon.

Somatic Sexologist and sex and spirit alchemist Lorna Gale joins Kaye to explore the deeper truth of sexuality as a sacred portal to Soul. Through the lens of sex and spirit alchemy, Lorna shares her midlife journey—from health crisis to spiritual exploration to sexual awakening—and how she moved beyond inherited guilt and body shame into a life led by feminine wisdom and embodied grace. Together, they explore the erotic as life force energy, the body as masculine form and creative flow as feminine, and how right relationship with our essence allows us to reclaim both pleasure and presence. With grounded insight, they touch on the healing integration of BDSM, intentional touch, and a thoughtful exploration of pornography and permission. This is a conversation for men and women alike—for those ready to move beyond taboo, unweave shame, and return home to the truth that sexuality, when honoured, is both creative and sacred. It’s an invitation to relearn how to feel, to awaken the body’s wisdom, and to honour our deepest desires as expressions of Soul.
