Michael highlights the conflict between his online persona and his true self, the demands of the job, and its impact on his relationships and personal growth. He sees this change as a new beginning to explore his interests, form deeper connections, and live more in the moment.

Amendment: Around 6 minutes, I state that shame is noted to be a motivator for persons who seek sex workers and persons who are involved with chemsex. This is untrue. This is only the case if the behaviour is ego syntonic/compulsive in the subjective experience of the individual; otherwise, enjoy! :)
In this short yet deeply personal episode, we embark on a candid journey through Michael's latest therapeutic explorations, focusing on the intricate relationship between kink, shame, and mental health. Michael bravely shares his evolving understanding of how deeply-rooted shame, stemming from childhood, has shaped his perceptions of intimacy, sexuality, and self-worth. With raw honesty, he discusses the challenging process of his shame—recognising the harmful belief that he is fundamentally flawed. As Michael delves into the complexities of his kink and sexual desires, he confronts the internalised stigma and the daunting task of reconciling his interests with societal norms.

In this episode, Michael updates us on his experiences with escorting. He expresses a desire to minimise digital engagement and return to simpler pleasures as part of a digital detox. He then delves into his kink journey, continuing to talk about working with his therapist to understand his needs in relationships, intimacy, and sex, highlighting his struggles with being submissive and the fear of narrowing his sexual desires. He explores the root of these issues through inner child work, addressing beliefs formed in childhood about submission and worthiness. Michael explores how his narrative touches on the conflict between his desire for dominance and submission, the influence of childhood experiences on his sexual behaviour, and his efforts to balance his kink interests with personal growth and self-understanding.Contact me via email:[email protected] from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): License code: GNHL82KTDKW6KBTHLicense code: UZ3QGMJGYWGTEZYZ

In this episode of BDSM Reimagined, Michael speaks about his latest therapy session where he encounters his inner child. He talks about how he's been working on understanding the parts of him that make it tough to really connect or stay in the moment when things get sexual or intimate.
He also shares a curious similarity he noticed with a recent submissive he met, and how at times, it reminded him of the therapy work he's been doing.

In Part 1 of this episode, Michael explores the current conditions that are leading him to flirt with the idea, and at times enact, paying men for sex - in particular straight men.
He speaks about why it is straight men that activate him, the difficulty of finding someone into the same kinks, the burden he feels he puts on others for wanting what he desires, and also explores how he is shocked that people actually want to be sexual with him at all.
Originally released a week later, but now included as one, Part 2 explores a further dimension of this behaviour. Michael speaks about how a recent break up has lead him to have lower moods making him more inclined to do things he feels he would not normally do. He also speculates that the urge to pay men could be an indicator to his own needs not being met. The space he pays for is a place he could satisfy his needs without feeling guilt.

The philosopher Baruch Spinoza, in his Tractatus de Intellectus Emendatione, wrote: "For as far as sensual pleasure is concerned, the mind is so caught up in it, as if at peace in a [true] good, that it is quite prevented from thinking of anything else. But after the enjoyment of sensual pleasure is passed, the greatest sadness follows. If this does not completely engross, still it thoroughly confuses and dulls the mind." Arthur Schopenhauer, writing later on the phenomenon, observed that "directly after copulation the devil's laughter is heard."In this episode, Michael aims to further explore aspects of his sexual life, documenting areas that can become obstacles. Here, he shares his experiences living with Postcoital Dysphoria (PCD). While he has previously discussed this topic in earlier seasons (S1E5 Extras), he goes into more detail here.
Study:
One study (1) reported that among a sample of 1208 male participants, 40% of them had experienced PCT at least once in their lifetime and 20% reported experiencing PCT in the four weeks preceding the study. This study also reports that 3–4% of the sample experienced PCT symptoms on a regular basis.(1) Maczkowiack, Joel; Schweitzer, Robert D. (July 2018). "Postcoital Dysphoria: Prevalence and Correlates among Males" (PDF). Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy. 45 (2): 128–140. doi:10.1080/0092623X.2018.1488326. PMID 30040588. S2CID 51717755.
Reports are much higher for females.

In this remarkable episode, I have the pleasure of interviewing Phil. Phil is the accomplished author of the new book titled "Light and Shadow: The Psychology of Master/slave Relationships". Drawing from his vast experience as a practitioner and coach in the realm of D/s dynamics, Phil delves deeply into his beliefs and the frameworks he advocates for, enriching these relationships. I would wholeheartedly recommend his book. It's not just a trove of insightful knowledge, but also offers tangible, practical methods for implementation.
In addition to his book, Phil is the brains behind the website, masterslavelifestyle.com. For those who podcasts, he also hosts his own available under the same name. It's my sincere hope that this episode offers listeners a new refreshing way to enhance their understanding of kink.

Part 1 - Indy and Michael kick off Season 3! It's been a while and we are so excited to be back. Both Indy and Michael had their interest in kink wax and wane over the past months. Indy was dealing with life and had her resources devoted elsewhere. Michael describes his constant presence on Instagram and a weird headspace he's in where he just wants to press the stop button. He also had a very nice vanilla encounter which makes him question how kink got so important and powerful. Indy talks about how Season 3 will unpack the deeper psychological side that drives our interest in BDSM. Playing the role of the dominant has arisen for Indy at a time when she has increasingly become disillusioned with relationships - what is really going on here? Michael is obsessed with youth and beauty whereas Indy loves men and women of vintage. Indy has set herself a challenge: to ask out a hot man. Indy describes a dynamic with a sub where she is exploring cuckolding. Indy took out her phone and started to show her sub the dick pics she'd been sent of other men and tell him how much better they were. Will Indy get a bull? She is exploring consentual non-monogamy and some new desires. Season 3 will look at different dynamics of shame and how this relates to BDSM. Part 2 - Join Michael and Indy as they ramble! Today we get straight into it. Michael describes a session with a sub who likes to be degraded for looking scruffy and wearing torn clothes. The session went into some unexpected directions, including pup play. Michael says he struggles with displays of affection and admiration as a Dom, which Indy can relate to. Indy has a confession to make. Whilst she loved the break from BDSM, now she's right back into it! Being almost 40, and at her sexual peak, she is back on the dating apps. However, it comes at an emotional price. The defectiveness schema can play out as can our deeper insecurities.
Indy's Episode - Join us this week as Indy and Michael laugh...and look at how Indy ended up here! Indy talks about being in the BDSM scene but feeling so defeated by dating apps, dating, vanilla and even kink. Indy describes her sexual revolution and disentangling of "the triangle" - sex, love and intimacy. This led for the door to open on her Domme side. However Indy now feels completely disillusioned by who she has become in the dating app scene.
Michael's Episode - Join us this week as Indy and Michael look at how Michael ended up in the situation he finds himself today. Michael relates somewhat to Indy when she speaks about being in the BDSM scene as a result of feeling so defeated by dating apps. He also speaks about his time as a Buddhist and how the fall of this triggered his Instagram pathway leading him to becomen what he is today on the social app world.
Part 3 - Join Indy and Michael in this season finale. We ramble about the position we now find ourselves in relation to BDSM. Given the insights surrounding shame, where does this lead Michael and Indy respectively?
