December 03, 2025243. How Chinese Medicine Can Transform Your Sex Life: Pain During Sex, ED Support & Pleasure Tips
Traditional Chinese medicine looks at your sex life very differently than Western medicine and honestly, it’s VERY refreshing. In this episode, we’re joined by Jaiming Ju, a 2nd-generation Chinese medicine practitioner and founder of Kun Health, to talk about how TCM understands libido, pain during sex, ED, arousal, and overall sexual wellbeing. We get into body patterns, energy balance, lifestyle habits, and what your symptoms are actually trying to tell you.

We cover:
How Chinese medicine understands sex and pleasure. Jaiming explains why sexual health is seen as a major indicator of overall wellbeing, not an isolated issue.

Why pain during sex is never “just in your head”. How TCM views dryness, pelvic pain, tension, and discomfort and why it’s almost always linked to imbalance, depletion, or circulation issues.

Understanding libido changes. How arousal, desire, and lubrication map to warmth, energy, and hormonal patterns + how aging, stress, lifestyle, and depletion impact the body.

ED from a TCM perspective. Why erections are about circulation, warmth, and “yang energy,” and what it means when interest and performance don’t match.

Tongue diagnosis and what it reveals about your sex life. Yes, your tongue really can show dryness, heat, coldness, stress patterns, or issues affecting libido.

Why stress and exhaustion shut down desire. How nervous system overload, burnout, and irregular routines drain the body’s resources and impact arousal.

Practical pleasure support from a Chinese medicine lens. Food, warmth, routines, habits, and small changes that help your body feel safer, softer, and more responsive during sex.

How to support long-term sexual health at every age. Daily practices Jaiming recommends to maintain circulation, lubrication, desire, and overall balance.

November 26, 2025242. When Motherhood Breaks You Open: Postpartum OCD, Anxiety & Healing
In this week’s solo episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on our mental health journeys and talking about the parts we’ve never shared publicly. Cass opens up about what postpartum OCD and anxiety really looked like behind the scenes and Emma shares how her lifelong anxiety shaped the patterns she still works through today. From intrusive thoughts and panic spirals to the shame, the turning points, and the actual support that helped us get better, we’re breaking down what healing looked like in real time. It’s messy, honest, sometimes dark, and ultimately a conversation we wish we'd heard when we were in it.

If mental health has ever knocked you on your ass (especially in early motherhood) this one is for you.

We dive into:
What postpartum OCD and anxiety looked like behind the scenes. Cass opens up about the intrusive thoughts, fear spirals, and emotional numbness that made early motherhood feel nothing like the highlight reel she expected.

Emma’s long-term anxiety and the patterns that came with it. Panic cycles, overwhelm, and the instinct to shut down instead of sit with big feelings.

Why both of us struggled to admit something was off. The pressure to look fine, the fear of being judged, and the mental gymnastics we used to convince ourselves we could handle it alone.

The turning points that pushed us to get help. The honest conversations, therapy breakthroughs, and moments that forced us to stop pretending.

The support and tools that actually helped us feel better. OCD treatment programs, medication, grounding routines, and small daily habits that made life feel manageable again.

How healing shifted our identities and relationships. Rebuilding confidence, reconnecting with our bodies, and experiencing love and connection in ways that weren’t accessible in survival mode.

November 19, 2025241. How To Break Toxic Patterns & Reclaim Your Power In Bed
Most of us don’t realize we’re in a toxic pattern until we’re deep in it — choosing the same partners, having the same fights, or falling into the same role over and over again. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Joy Berkheimer, psychotherapist and relationship expert, to talk about why these patterns feel so familiar, why they’re so hard to break, and how to finally choose something healthier. If you’ve ever wondered “why does this keep f*cking happening?” this conversation will hit home.

We cover:
Why toxic patterns feel familiar and why that’s the problem. Joy breaks down why your brain and body are drawn to what they already know, even when it’s not good for you.

How to actually recognize a pattern while you’re in it. The subtle signs and behaviors that show you’re repeating an old story.

Why your nervous system keeps you stuck. How fear, comfort, and old survival responses pull you back into the same dynamics.

What breaking a toxic pattern really takes. The realistic, day-to-day shifts that help you choose differently, even when it’s uncomfortable.

How to tell if your intuition is speaking… or if it’s anxiety. Joy explains the difference so you can stop second-guessing yourself.

What “not abandoning yourself” looks like in real relationships. How to stop minimizing your needs or shrinking to keep the peace.

Why change feels scary, lonely, and messy. And why that discomfort is actually a sign you’re doing the work.

How to reconnect with the version of you who knows they deserve better. Joy shares tools for rebuilding self-worth and choosing healthier connections.

November 12, 2025240. Q+A: “Why Do I Rush My Pleasure And How Do I Stop?!”
In this week's episode we're answering one of YOUR questions with a combination of expert tips and personal experience.

The Question: "My question is about breaking a negative habit. My long-term boyfriend is wonderful, patient, and always makes sure I finish, but sometimes I find myself not wanting to have sex at all because I don’t feel like giving myself the time. It’s like, “ugh, it takes too long and who has time for that?” How can I change that mindset, stop rushing my pleasure, and actually enjoy the process?"

What We Cover in This Episode:
Why it’s so hard to give yourself permission to take the time. And how guilt or pressure shows up even with a loving partner.

Where the “too much work” mindset comes from. We trace it back to messages about sex, bodies, and being “easy.”

Why it’s normal to feel impatient with your own pleasure. And how to shift out of that without forcing it.

How to make slowing down feel good instead of awkward. Real ways to make the build-up part of the fun again.

What to do when your brain won’t shut up during sex. Simple ways to come back to your body without overthinking.

How to talk to your partner when you need more time. Language that feels natural, not clinical or awkward.

October 01, 2025234. Q+A : "Help! I've Never Had An Orgasm..."
In this week's episode we're answering one of YOUR questions with a combination of expert tips and personal experience.

The Question: “I’m 23 years old and have never had an orgasm. I have a wonderful boyfriend, whom I very much enjoy having sex with, but cannot finish, and have not been able to with the other people I’ve slept with. I also masturbate relatively frequently, and have tried a few different toys, and manual stimulation as well. I recently talked to my friend about this, who suggested watching porn to see if this helped, but I really just couldn’t get into it. I have a pretty active brain, and sometimes will struggle to be fully in the moment. Even when I’m turned on, and enjoying it, I don’t know if I’m able to be fully present. Am I broken? I know you usually say that everyone is different, but I often find sex and masturbation feels “nice” with smaller pockets of pleasure. My boyfriend is great, and priorities making me feel good with going down on me, encouraging me to use toys when we’re together etc, but I still can’t. Is it possible that I just am not capable of orgasming? I’d really appreciate your opinions and advice."
What We Cover in This Episode:
Not having an orgasm doesn’t mean you’re broken. We break down the orgasm trap and explain how pressure can make it harder to cum.

The biggest orgasm blockers. Stress, shame, “shoulds,” and a wandering mind are some of the most common things that get in the way.

How to get out of your head during sex. Grounding tools and easy practices to bring your brain back into your body.

Pleasure beyond your usual go-to's. Why focusing only on our go-to's (like penetration) can stall your pleasure and what else to explore instead.

Fun ways to shake up your routine. From massage to toys to new locations, we share fresh ideas to make intimacy exciting again.

How to talk to your partner about orgasm struggles. Scripts and conversation tips that make asking for support feel sexy instead of stressful.

Why small wins matter more than the big O. Celebrating little pockets of pleasure helps you build confidence and move closer to orgasm.

When to call in the pros. Pelvic floor PTs, sex therapists, and sex-positive doctors can help work through deeper blocks.
