  • Your Perfect Lid
    2023/12/14

    Is there a strategic way to go about finding your perfect match? Our guest today thinks so. On this episode I chat with former radical queer musician turned marriage and family therapist, Brittany Berg, to hear about her strategic approach to finding partnership along with how and why that approach has changed over the years.


    During the commercial break I highlighted a few safety apps, designed to give the user an out during uncomfortable and potentially dating situations. Check them out!

  • Let's Chat
    2023/12/07

    In an I Shaved My Ass For This First, I introduce a new episode format where I speak directly to the audience about a topic that is close to my heart and has been a consistent theme in my dating life. In this first fireside chat I go into depth about my struggle with depression and how it's impacted my pursuit for intimacy and connection.


    There is a light at the end of the depression tunnel and it shines brightly from within.


    I hope you enjoy xo

    2023/11/23

    This week I am absolutely honored to welcome guest Tara Timberman, a musician and scholar, as she gives her first on the record account of her experiences as a sugar baby. This line of sex work is either highly stigmatized or glamorized but Tara provides a grounded account of the ways sugaring has improved her life and future prospects. She also discusses the ways in which the work can sometimes feel burdensome.

    The early experiences we have around sex and relationships can really shape how we approach intimacy as we get older. On this episode, I speak with Saturn who talks about the early messages they received around love and relationships as a queer person. They describe the work they're doing to repair some of the early damage in the hopes of achieving a more successful dating life.

    *Hint* We have to look within
