  • Episode85: Guys, Girth, and Great Relationships w/ William Moore Part 2

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is William Moore again.

    William is the founder of the Dallas-based biohacking clinic AdvancedYOU and the visionary behind PhalloFILL®, the leading network for non-surgical penile girth enhancement. After launching in 2021, PhalloFILL now spans 20 U.S. markets, Mexico City, and Montreal, solidifying its status as the largest and most accessible treatment for penile girth enhancement. Beyond the clinics, Moore is the President of the Texas Med Spa Association, advocating for LGBTQ+ rights and healthcare equality. With an MBA and an M.S. in Health and Human Performance, William draws on two decades of experience to guide patients to optimal health, enhanced appearance, and heightened self-esteem.

    William is also Ethically Non-Monogamous with his husband. Last time we discussed how they have designed their relationship consciously to allow each other to experience their sexuality in the most fulfilling way for them as a couple. They have mutual respect and honesty in their commitments to each other and the agreements they have made together. Listen to Episode 84 to hear more about William and his ENM journey.

    I'm so grateful that William (Bill) was willing to share so vulnerably and allow us a peek into his sex positive, authentic life. Last time on the podcast we focussed primarily on his personal life and our views on the lifestyle, relationships, sex and love. We got into so many topics such as religion, LGBTQ+ rights, abortion, transgender discrimination, open relationships, and so much more. We had to turn this into a two part episode because there was so much to talk about. This episode is the second part of the conversation.

    Today we discuss Phallofill, his penile girth enhancement procedure. We take a deep dive into his incredible work increasing confidence for men through his proprietary, safe, penile girth enhancement precedure. Phallofill might be the right solution for you as a man if you desire more girth and the benefits that might come with that. There is no shame in exploring options to enhance your self confidence.

    First and formost, I challenge you to embrace all of you authentically and be the best version of yourself simply because you are worthy just as you are. Xo

  • Episode82: The Danger of Leaving One Box for Another Part 2

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Xavi Benjamin.

    Xavi Benjamin is an artist and digital creator with an insatiable curiosity. He's the host of The Xavi Benjamin Show, a podcast with commentary and analysis about technology, culture, and politics from the communist perspective.

    He is a former Jehovah's Witness and in Part 1 of this conversation, we talked about his journey out of the box of religion and the impact that has had on his life. We learn about his upbringing in the religious organization of The Kingdom Hall and what led to the unraveling of his faith and the devastation that caused.

    This week in Part 2, we get more into the ideas of conforming to one system then when you leave that system, we often feel compelled to enter another system to feel safe and fit in. However, this can be damaging when we don't make our own choices and simply fall into another box.

    Many have never had to reason themselves out of their very deep faith and religion. That takes bravery and causes someone to question everything they have ever known. It's scary and it can be dark some days. We are taught to fit into certain boxes to fit in, and taught to judge other boxes. But breaking free means that you get to question the boxes that you have been forced into your whole life and you get step out of the box. You don't have to fit in a box to live a good life. In fact, many people are stuck in boxes and don't even know who they are anymore.

    There are others who just leave one box for another and don't even really ever question the reason they were in the box to begin with. Many just try to fit in somewhere else instead of discovering who they truly are. They never find where they truly belong because they are too busy needing to fit in another prescribed box full of rules to once again try to fit in.

    We get to decide who we want to be and what kind of impact we want to have on the world and those around us. We get to decide what brings us joy and then we get to create the life we desire.

    Nobody gets to determine your sexuality or your style of loving. Only you know what lights you up and what brings you joy and pleasure. Let's not step into another box without evaluating the reasons we left the first box. This is where we get judgement and shame from.

    Let's get rid of judgment and shame and honour each other's choices. Let's be loving, honest, and ethical towards others so that the world will be a much better place, full of loving freedom.

  • Episode79: Who Is the Real You Under the Story?

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Michaela Gaffen Stone.

    Michaela Gaffen Stone is a lifelong traveler and student of life, diving into new places and experiences with enthusiasm. Her journey has had many twists and turns, all with valuable points of learning. Her passion for helping elevate others from a place of stuckness to freedom, began when she became a registered nurse, caring for people’s health firsthand. Realizing that this was a band aid solution at best, she dove into the world of nutrition and behavior coaching, getting certified as a Precision Nutrition Level 2 Master Coach and a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. Her journey didn’t stop there—she became a Certified Wildfit Coach and recently earned her certification in Back to Spring coaching because she truly believes in its power to transform lives.

    She says, "What sets me apart is my deep understanding of why we eat the way we do, especially when emotions come into play. I’m not here to push you into another restrictive diet."

    Most of us don't realize we are living our lives out by a story we believe to be true. In fact it is a story that runs in our subconscious and controls most of our actions and reactions. We basically live our lives on autopilot and we aren't even aware of it. Only 5% of our decisions are made from the conscious part of our mind and 95% is controlled by the subconscious mind and the stories that we have about ourselves and the world around us.

    Our past experiences and traumas create this story and belief system. What if we decided to not let this unknown story dictate our lives? Who would we actually be if we didn't see ourselves through this story?

    Michaela and I discuss the things that often create our stories and keep us stuck in unhealthy patterns. As a Behavioural Analyst, she brings a lot of insite into human behaviour and why we do the things that we do. We often have emotional attachments to our unhealthy habits. We act in accordance with the story that we believe. In fact, we will only rise to the level that we believe we deserve. It's important to uncover our stories in order to live our most authentic, empowered lives and be free to create a new chosen story!

  • Episode76: The Transformative Power of Sexual Fantasies with Artemisia

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Artemisia de Vine.

    Sexual Fantasy expert who teaches the world's leading sexperts the meaning of our sexual fantasies, and how to bring them out of our heads and into our beds! Author of upcoming book: The Spirituality of Smut: The surprising wisdom of sexual fantasies.

    Certified somatic sexologist, BA in anthropology and former sex worker and professional dominatrix.

    Offering a groundbreaking new theory! Understand how stories work and you understand why we have sexual fantasies - and how to create powerful, real-life transformative sexperiences that satisfy the real desire behind the story symbolism.

    Today we talk about Sexual Fantasies and how it has been so stigmatized. Fantasies are not just for healing, they are also there to tell us how to let go and have deep pleasure. Our ego resists changes in states of conciousness which is why we often gets stuck in our head. We are often afraid of letting go and being vulnerable. Fantasy gives us the key to unlocking our consciousness and gives you deep permission to let go, feel, and surrender.

    All good sex takes surrendering to some level. Peak experiences are often described as getting lost in the moment. We want this for you.

    I want you to first of all, allow yourself to have desires and fantasies and then learn to accept them as perfectly ok. This is so important in my work. I don't want you to escape and fill a void, I want you to be fully authentic and alive with confidence.

  • Episode75: Breaking the Cycle of Sexual Avoidance w/ Katie Ziskind

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Katie Ziskind.

    Katie specializes in coaching disconnected couples who want to stay together and want to work together after high conflict fights, anger issues, affairs, sexual avoidance, and sexual rejection to develop a foundation of emotional connection, trust, and love. She supports couples who struggle with infidelity and need an affair recovery specialist that takes them through specific steps to attune to each other. Intimacy is all about being emotionally vulnerable to build a closer relationship. We don’t learn emotional expression skills growing up.

    She says, "I help couples grow together through life transitions and stressors like infertility, becoming new parents, having a child with special needs, loss and grief, dealing with chronic pain, alcoholism, becoming empty nesters, and do so while reducing criticism, hurt, and conflict. I help couples feel safe and excited emotionally and build a strong bond, and grow together. I help couples gain sex positive skills to understand foreplay, sexual pleasure, rebuild sexual desire, connect to their sexual, erotic playful side. I give you a safe place to talk about how your strict, conservative, religious upbringing has lead to feelings of shame, guilt, fear, avoidance, lack of satisfaction, and anxiety around sex and shift into reconnecting to sexual pleasure. I help couples get familiar and comfortable talking about emotions, needs, expectations emotionally and gain sex positive education. I have a podcast available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify called, “All Things Love and Intimacy.” I am Gottman level 2 trained, Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional (CSTIP), and couples specialist."

    Today we discuss the difference between male and female arousal tendencies. Did you know that female bodies need 45 - 90 min of foreplay for full arousal while male bodies need only 4 - 8 minutes to reach full engorgement? Well, most people are not aware of this.

    This week we have a conversation about spontanious versus responsive arousal and sex drives. Sexual avoidance happens when there is a mismatch in sex drives and a lack of emotional intimacy. How to we end the cycle of Sexual Avoidance and to bring back Sexual Intimacy? Well, we need a balance between emoational intimacy and physical intimacy.

    It's so important to create safety in a relationship and today we give you some strategies that can help bring back that spark.

  • Episode74: The Cost of Conformity with Carrie Jeroslow

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Carrie Jeroslow.

    Best-selling author and Relationship Diversity Advocate, Carrie Jeroslow, is passionate about bringing intentionality into intimate relationships by releasing the programming of what we’re taught relationships SHOULD be and shifting to what we really WANT them to be.

    Her podcast, Relationship Diversity Podcast, aims to explore, question, and celebrate all aspects of relationship structure diversity This is an inclusive space, giving people the permission to design their unique relationships from the knowledge and acceptance of their unique selves.

    She has been seen on NBC, PBS, The CW, featured in, Winston Salem Journal, Prevention and Newsweek, and has been interviewed by Marianne Williamson, Go All In TV, The ListTV, and many others to share her message, as well as her first book, Why Do They Always Break Up with Me?

    Just from reading her Bio you can see that we are so aligned in our missions. Today we talk about preserving our energy, people pleasing and the dangers of conformity. Why is it dangerous to conform? Isn't it important to belong and make sure that we are following the rules?

    Our society is built on certain rules to follow when it comes to relationships and sexuality. Many of us have been taught to follow these rules with no regard to our own intuition or discomfort. We are not taught to ask ourselves what we would like, what we enjoy, what our needs are, etc... We are taught to put our heads down, hustle, do what you are told and conform so that everybody can get along and so that society can be easier to manage. The thing is, many people are living out a program that does fit them or even meet their needs. We have an epidemic of mental health issues and dissatisfaction. Past generations were not taugh about the correlation between our physical and mental health with the joy in our lives.

    We are told that marriage to one person forever is the only way to live "Happily Ever After." However, this is false. Very few people actually have healthy marriages and relationships. There is so much infidelity and we are taught that sexuality is shameful and desiring it is even worse. Is it any wonder that we are suffering to be authentic in our world?

    There is a serious cost to conformity even if you don't realize it.

    Purposed with infectious inspiration, Nina is the founder of the Wild, Divine, Orgasmic Leadership Movement. Nina is sharing her liberation with the world's most impeccable women through individual and group experiences and retreats. Her clients, the bravest of women; enjoy amazing connections to their body, feel exquisite levels of self-expression, and step into their power like nobody's business. These women access their true inner goddess, magnetize their desires, and hold a divine magnetism that brings them an impenetrable inner joy and peace.

    "When my inner world transformed I realised much of my thinking of this or that not being right was my nervous system being bound up with the past. It was causing me to want to run. Fight, flight or freeze are the only solutions that our ancient brain structures have.

    Truth can only come once we've transformed our inner world and reclaimed our life force.

    Then we find that it’s possible to both create an amazing life AND enjoy it!"

    Our conversation today went in many directions but at the heart of it, we discussed not just creating the life you want but actually loving the life you have as the catalyst for change. When we love being ourselves and love our life even when it isn't exactly how we want it, we start to create the very life we desire. When we learn to enjoy each moment and bring pleasure into our lives, we start to notice and experience things we never noticed before. When we get out of our heads and into our bodies we start to feel and experience life at a different level.

    Life becomes a new adventure that we can embark on with curiousity. We can experience joy in the little things that we would never have noticed before. Pleasure is a birthright but we have been taught that it is irresponsible or an extra in life, however, without pleasure, life becomes mundane and difficult. We are built to enjoy pleasure, sensation, and joy but our society and all of it's rules have shut us down from the experience of truly living!

  • Episode72: A Former JW's Journey to Self Love and ENM

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Ariel.

    I will keep her anonymous as she was kind enough to share her vulnerable story with us and allow me to interview her.

    This beautiful girl has had quite a journey growing up as a Jehovah's Witness and eventually leaving the church. There is so much shame associated with leaving a religion that is deep rooted since childhood. When you are taught that you have the absolute truth, your mission on earth is to basically tell others they are wrong your whole life. It's exhausting and it is a challenge to truly love without expectation.

    You are taught that self love is selfish and that you must love only God/Jehovah, or your life is basically meaningless and you risk being shunned and ostricized by the only community you have know if you question anything.

    Ariel was able to leave and rebuild her worldview as well. She has learned to deeply treasure herself and has overcome the shame around sexuality and body image. Modesty is revered in these communities and anything else is sinful. It is so hard to shed that programming and become sex positive.

    Now, she is a beautiful example of self love and successful Ethical Non-Monogamy. She is able to embrace who she is to her core and make deep lasting connections with people in this beautiful world that are based on love and true authenticity.

    I want this for all of you! Enjoy this week's episode.

    Love, Karine

  • Episode71: Kinky Wellness with Dana Shergill

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Dana Shergill.

    Dana Shergill is a Kinky Wellness Educator and owner of The Partition: Home of Kinky Wellness.

    With close to a decade's worth of public and private education, as well as first-hand experiences, Dana helps people curious about BDSM and Kink enter the play more informed while spreading awareness of the benefits of Kinky Wellness.

    Dana's primary mission is to shine a light on how BDSM and Kink, and overall Kinky Wellness, provides a healthy outlet for Aggression, Imagination, and Attention, or simply # A.I.A., and without a healthy outlet for each, self-development is not possible.

    Dana's fresh approach and concern for risk awareness demonstrates how BDSM and Kink, and overall Kinky Wellness, deserve a seat in the wellness conversation.

    This conversation was so good and needed. We talked about having a safe place to explore our fantasies and desires. We need to be able to explore in our mind and out loud without judgement and we also need a safe place to explore these things in real life without fear. We discuss how this is possible.

    We want you to be the best version of yourself. We want you to be authentic and we want you to be open to all the things that make you you. If you are not sure what it is that you desire, or just know that something is missing in your life, reach out and we can help you determine what you need permission to explore.

    Don't fear the unknown. There might be something amazing for you to discover!

  • Episode70: Are You Living a "Turned On Pussylicious Life?"

    Explicit

    Today my special guest is Kim Coffin. She is a certified Trauma Informed, Somatic (body-based) Empowerment & Sexuality Coach, Bestselling Author & Teacher, a graduate of Layla Martin’s Institute of Integrated Tantric Sexuality, and founder of Get Your Sexy Back.

    She specializes in Sexuality, Tantric Sex and Relationship Transformation giving you the tools to unleash your sexual confidence and unlock profound new levels of self-love, pleasure, empowerment, and intimacy with yourself - and in your relationships!

    By creating deep trust and safety in your body and mind, Kim will show you how to RECONNECT to your body, ACTIVATE your turn-on, HEAL heartbreak & shame, and RECLAIM your true SEXY self so that you can fully step into your UNAPOLOGETIC POWER!

    Do you even know what your turn ons are? Are you living with joy in your body? Do you pay attention to how your erogenous body or "pussy" feels on a daily basis?

    This episode is truly magical and "pussylicious." When was the last time you really connected with your body enough to listen. Sacred pleasure gives us permission to get into our sensual bodies and recognize that this part of our body deserves so much more attention that what society leads us to believe. Our society knows that if we all were successful at getting rid of shame and guilt about our bodies and our sexuality, we would be so empowered and literally unstoppable. This is our lifeforce and you can't control a society that is so tuned into and aware of their bodies.

    I would like to imagine that woman listening to their pussys could completely change this mental health crisis we are in. Men tapping in to their sensual selves would start to really "know" themselves and show up in relationships with empowered vulnerability and care. It's amazing what happens when we give ourselves permission to get out of our heads and really start living and feeling.

    It's time to really shed this shame and guilt about our turn ons, bodies, needs and desires and start LIVING our PUSSYLICIOUS LIFE!

    Kim has a Free Gift for my listeners to get you started on this journey of activating your turn on and you can find the link below.

    Today, we created a very special 2 hour episode with lots of humour, fun, and education. If you are in the lifestyle or are curious about the lifestyle, this episode is for you. We start off the conversation with some lovely discussion about the infamous position called 69! Are you a fan? Is it all that it's cracked up to be?

    Find out what we think at the beginning of this fun conversation. We tell all and then some. We discuss fantasy vs reality and how to navigate expectations. We give you insights about how to approach difficult conversations and we answer your questions.

    We talk about expectations and how shame and guilt can play into our fears about things and feelings of possible rejection. How do you approach people or attract the kinds of people you are looking for?

    I hope that you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed creating it and hanging out together. This is what the lifestyle is all about for us. Friendship, authenticity, laughs, and genuine connection.

  • Episode68: Part 2: Is Polygamy Allowed in the Bible?

    Explicit

    Well here is Part 2 where we talk about Designing your relationships in a way that is ethical and conscious for you.  My special guest is former Pastor Raymond Harris again and we get into Part 2 of his deconstruction. The deconstruction of his faith and his beloved scriptures.  Raymond went to Bible School to learn how to study the Bible and teach it effectively.  He calls himself a “logician” using logic and hermeneutics to interpret the “Word of God”  

    What do you do when someone in your congregation asks you if Polygamy was allowed in the New Testament?  Well, listen to this two part series about questioning what you’ve always known.

    If you grew up in the church, this conversation will be refreshing and eye opening.  Questioning my faith and my programming was one of the most difficult things I have ever gone through in my life.  It was scary and frustrating.  It felt lonely and isolated from everything I had ever known.  It’s hard to comprehend how challenging it is to have your whole world, everything you’ve ever known, come crashing down around you.  Unless you have been a part of a fundamentalist religion, you have no idea how much bravery this kind of investigation requires.

    I wanted to have a two part series really delving into the deconstruction process and what that looks like.  I know that these kinds of conversations helped me so much when I was going through this difficult journey 15 years into my “perfect” Christian marriage.

    Raymond still loves to study the Bible and quotes several verses during this enlightening conversation.  He says, “I have navigated away from the professional business arena. I observe life, reflect, meditate, and participate in day-to-day life, primarily interacting face-to-face with individuals, providing personal, relational, and spiritual insights and general life guidance.”

    Grab a warm mug of something yummy and get cozy.  This is a long one but is so interesting.  I hope you enjoy it and if you resonate with any of this, please reach out.  It’s not easy to go through this alone.  It’s why I do what I do.  I am so passionate about Breaking Free Authentically.  I thought it was a great way to end 2023.

    We will take a couple weeks off for the Holidays.  We will be back the 2nd week of January with the episode I know you’ve all been waiting for, EPISODE 69!!!!

    This would not be a sex positive podcast if we did not do something special for episode 69.  I will be bringing back one of my hilarious guests Topher Lynn the creator of "Sip, Strip or Smooch" for this episode.  Please send in your questions!!! Do you have any burning questions that you want to ask us? Please send them in. You can email or DM me or simply put them in the FB group.

    Here is the link to “Unprotected Texts:The Bible's Surprising Contradictions About Sex and Desire” by Jennifer Wright Knust if you are interested in reading it.  I highly recommend it.

    What did you learn today?  Did you relate to this experience?  How many of you have left your faith or questioned your deep rooted beliefs?  DM me.  I’d love to know who you are.  Let us know in the FB group.  I’m here for you.  If you are ready to really shift that deep rooted programming, I’m your girl.  My 8 week program, Breaking Free from Conformity is for you!

    You will learn to question what you’ve always known in a comfortable way.  I want to help you avoid the pain, anguish, confusion, and loneliness  I went through as I weeded through my beliefs, expectations,...
