Men, Sex, and Pleasure with Cam Fraser

Quicky #9 is from Season 1, Episode 10: Confessions of a male stripper (with Josh Hardy) 

Today, I chat with depressed Heavy Diesel Mechanic and Male Stripper turned Agency Owner, Gym owner and Holistic Lifestyle Coach, Josh Hardy. Josh lived a life making decisions ruled by fear of not being enough, and self pity from not meeting high standards. He quit his job to pursue his passion in health & fitness, hand built his gym from scratch and is still on a huge journey of personal growth to become a better human, role model and leader. Josh and I recently connected again at a men's group after 15 years of lost contact. We used to play soccer together when we were kids. Josh offers a fascinating peek behind the curtin into the stripping industry, from the hen's nights and dance shows to the pressure to perform to the insecurities.

Quicky #7 is from Season 1, Episode 8: Sacred Sexuality and Ancient Lore (with Ryan McKenna)

On this episode, I chat with wellness wizard Ryan McKenna. He embodies ancient knowledge and wisdom, in unison with modernized teachings and techniques to create alchemic medicine to nourish the mind, body and soul. Fusing together elements of Celtic shamanism, Druidism, Astrology and herbalism to create optimized transformative awakening journeys for high dimensional existence. Ryan specializes in detoxification and regeneration of the physical organs through sacred healing modalities, sacred sexuality, nutritional balancing, fasting, qigong and elemental meditational journeys through ceremonial sound and music therapy. Bringing the body forward into balance and harmony, on a multidimensional level, by clearing stagnation and blockages, releasing toxic belief systems, and creating space within ones vessel allow new higher frequencies to enter and prepare the soul to ascend into higher realms of consciousness to embody new earth golden age frequencies.

On this episode of #mensexpleasure, I chat with Charles Dubois. Charles’ journey of sexual healing started two years ago when he met a woman. Up until that point, he did not know what masculinity meant. He always found it easier to connect with his feminine side, and was afraid to embody anything remotely like the constant portrayal of “Toxic Masculinity” that permeates our media. Charles knew what he did not want to be, but had no idea who he did want to be. Then he met a woman so consciously connected to and embodying her femininity that it awoke something inside of him - and broke something inside of him as well. She had introduced him to himself, as the feminine oracle does so well, but she was not meant to save him from it. Charles spent the next two years on a journey of healing and discovery, seeking out masculine teachers and leaders, and exploring what deep sexual intimacy really means. The two of us talk about his experience with my Sacred Sexuality Coaching certification as well as his approach to working with men who feel shame about their sexuality. We also discuss the socialization of boys and men as well as how to engage with men from the ‘manosphere’.

Quicky #6 is from Season 1, Episode 7: Working Through Shame and Trauma Changed My Life (with Mos Nepia-Rangi)

On this episode of the Men, Sex & Pleasure podcast. This is a very special and vulnerable conversation with Amos, also known as Mosman or Mos, for short. He is a loving partner as well as an adventurous father who is on a journey of self love and self healing. His passion is to connect with people. Mos is working in construction and studying to be a personal trainer. In this conversation, Mos shares a little chunk of his story about sexual trauma, vulnerability, masculinity and intimacy. He feels it is a subject that gets left in the dark and that there’s so much shame around it. Because of his journey of self development, Mos felt that it was right to share his story. He also wants you to remember you are not alone.

This is another solo episode of #mensexpleasure. In this episode, I share my thoughts about erectile dysfunction. I thought it might be interesting and useful to have an entire podcast episode dedicated to erectile dysfunction so that it could potentially be used as a resource for others. Feel free to share this around if you have someone asking about erection issues.
