One of the most common questions we get from our listeners is ‘where has my desire gone and how do I get it back?’ It seems to be something every one of us experiences at different stages of our lives and we still don’t seem to be talking about it all that much. Speaking of things we don’t talk about, when was the last time you self pleasured? How about your partner? Do you ask them when they masturbate? Don’t worry, we don’t either. But maybe we should!

Joining us is the incredible Dr. Jennifer Gunsaullus, aka ‘Dr. Jenn,’ a sociologist, sexologist, TEDx speaker, and ‘Vagina Warrior’. With over 20 years of experience in the field of sexual health, Dr Jenn is here to break down how we all feel about desire and pleasure for ourselves and within our relationships!

We spoke about:

• How our attitudes have changed when it comes to talking about sex
• How girls and boys are socialised differently when it comes to our bodies
• When to talk to kids about their ‘urges’
• How our desire levels change over our lifetime and so does ‘what feels good’
• Is porn a common problem in relationships?
• Are you the higher desire person or lower desire person in your relationship?
• How important is it to masturbate?
• Practical ways that you can bring your desire back

You can find Dr Jenn’s new book From Madness to Mindfulness: Reinventing Sex for Women

Hey Lifers!

Britt has learnt a very good lesson about double glazed glass and not so private beaches.
She’s gearing up to get *legally married this week and has asked Laura and Keeshia to be a part of it.
What did you do with your wedding certificate? Are you framing and hanging it up? How about your degree?

A survey has revealed that most people are thinking about their ex when they’re getting off. We did our own *research into this and it turns out more of you are than we expected! Have you ever said an ex’s name during sex?

Do you think female entertainment journalists have a greater responsibility to report fairly on women in the media? Are gossipy, bitchy pieces written by women a betrayal to their own gender?

British actress and activist Jameela Jamil announced via her Substack that she will no longer be interviewed by women. This came after a particularly critical profile in The Times, and she’s said that of the “hundreds of women” who have interviewed her over her 17-year career, only three have written about her fairly.

We unpack whether we think female journalists are to blame, what the trade off of a profile piece is and the grey areas of standing on your morals.
We also discuss the specific tactics that some media use to manipulate your opinion about someone. Some of them are more obvious than others.

If you’d like to read the pieces we discuss,

Jameela’s substack I think I'm done with being interviewed by women.

The Times Jameela Jamil: 'I stood up for Meghan long before I met her'

The cut - Feminism? Jameela Jamil Is Too Feminist to Be Interviewed by Women Journalists

Today we’re welcoming back a guest who is one of the most impressive young female entrepreneurs in Australian business—Brittney Saunders. You might know her from YouTube, from her massive social media following, from her brand Fayt the Label, her cafés or her podcasts. She’s now also the author of a brand-new book Just Getting Started—an unfiltered look at the wild ride of building businesses from the ground up, making big mistakes and staying true to your vision.

We’ve had the pleasure of having Britt on the podcast before (May 2023) for an episode titled Building the biz from the basement up. In that episode we spoke about:
-being one of the OG influencers who leveraged her platform to create multiple extremely successful businesses
-fat phobia in the fashion industry and size inclusivity being a smart business decision and
-the businesses that Britt started before the ones that were successful!

Today we wanted to focus on the mindset you need to have a successful business and some of the lessons she has learnt more recently as her businesses continue to grow!

We spoke about:

• Why Britt wrote a book and the process of becoming an author
• The many hats that business creators wear and how to hand those jobs away
• How Britt structures the management of her business
• Why Brittney didn’t put her name into her business
• The costly mistakes Britt made early on in business
• Pushing against expectations and judgement
• Working so closely with her partner AJ
• Hiring decisions
• Why money shouldn’t be the main motivator for starting a business
• Staffing being the hardest part of running a business

Hey Lifers!

Laura’s baby is taking a stand/protesting to Matt disclosing her name on his podcast. If you’ve had a baby, did you and your partner agree on whether to share the name/s publicly before the baby was born?

Britt has entered a new career - being a professional dancer! Dancing with the stars has aired and our twinkle toes tore up the dance floor! We share some BTS of Dancing with the Stars and Britt finally gets the answer to whether Osher knew that she was going to be dumped on Bach 8 years ago!

Two stories came out over the weekend that both surrounded the unveiling of the identities of online trolls/cyber bullies. Indy Clinton has received a 64 page document from a private investigator that includes the names and details about some of her relentless trolls. A couple in Ireland have successfully sued the formally anonymous owner of ‘tattle life,’ an online gossip cesspit and had his identity released.

So with the advancements in technology that make online anonymity harder, do you think trolls would stop and think twice if they thought there was the risk that their identity would be exposed?

Should influencers release the identities of their online trolls if they have concrete proof that they’re the ones responsible for years worth of bullying?

Do you think tech companies like meta or tiktok have more of a responsibility to not allow people to be anonymous?

We discuss whether these trolls being exposed would do potentially more harm than good or whether it’s a consequence for their own behaviour. We chat about precedents, how trolling affects both Britt and Laura and whether we think these stories will shift the dial at all.
