Join me and Bre as we have a candid conversation about learning to let go. It can be really difficult to let go and step into the unknown, we often stay in jobs, friendships, and intimate relationships longer than we need to because of the fear about what is to come or what we are leaving behind. Bre and I discuss things that we've found useful in determining when to move on from something, particularly intimate relationships! In reality, the road is never easy, but we're both committed to our growth and becoming our highest selves, and a key part of this is shedding what no longer serves us.
Join Devanshi, Bre and me for the first episode of Season 4! It's been a hot minute and it is so exciting to be releasing the 4th season. In this episode, Devanshi, who is a post-grad med student focusing on sexual health and obstetrics, talks to us about her journey to becoming a Dr. as a Southeast Asian woman, and why she is so passionate about sexual health and wellness. She helps to bust some harmful sexual health and contraception myths, and delves into STI screening, what it entails and why it is so important. This was a fascinating conversation and it was so wonderful to be able to have Devanshi unpack some of the often difficult to understand sexual health space!

Join Vicky and me (Alicia) in the first episode of season two. We talk about having sex on playgrounds 😉, how the messages we receive as children about boundaries and sexuality affect us, the difficulties of being vulnerable and intimate during sex (even in a 10 year romantic relationship!), the power of accepting and moving through emotions, and most importantly how not taking things personally is the biggest thing you should learn in a romantic relationship (that one was a bit too real for me 🥴). She also introduces the concept of a sex box, and how hard it is to find and often harder to jump into.Vicky and I have been best friends since we were 12 (she was that Mills and Boons buddy I referred to in ep 1, Season 1 🤣). We have been through all of the ups and downs that life has chucked at us in 17 years and it was such a beautiful experience to be able to chat with her for the podcast.Don't forget to rate, subscribe and review!

Richie Hardcore is an educator, a keynote speaker and activist working in violence prevention, masculinities, mental health, and wellness. He's also a retired multiple New Zealand muay thai champion.Join us as we discuss Richie’s changing relationship with social media and how each of us has a role to play off screen and in society. Notably we talk about the validation many of us get for calling out people online and the importance of systemic vs individual change. Richie shares some of his story about growing up in an abusive household and how having a shared experience with others has helped him to create spaces where hurt men who might be on the pathway to violence are able to open up and get help. He speaks to thousands of young men around the country about healthy masculinity, relationships and porn. And he opens up about why healthy masculinity is important call in rhetoric compared to toxic masculinity, which alienates those we want to change.
