Dealing with depression is not something that you should be ashamed or embarrased of. We need to open the conversation about depression and help each other. There are many avenues to receive help and the first one that you should start with is a medical doctor. Tell your friends and family that you are struggling and learn that your are not alone. It may feel that way at times but you are never alone. I struggle with depression, do you?

This week we talk about how imagery in media effects us as humans in our lifestyle and the vanilla world. This all started with a the movie poster for Xmen which depicted the main villain with his hands around Mystique's throat. There had to be an apology released and so many people were upset. Really?? Have we really gotten to the point where we are offended by any image that is not calm and peaceful? It's a movie with fictional characters. What do you think? Do you think it's a bad thing? Is there too much sexual imagery and violence in media, movies, games?

What does it mean to be free? I think it means letting go of the negative, the hate and the judgement. We also need to let go of our past mistakes and be open to living in the moment. It means forgiving ourselves and letting the negative parts of our past go. We also have to be willing to let the energy sucking people in our lives go too. You have all the power to surround yourself with good and positive people. Find your tribe or your family and get rid of the garbage that holds you back from being happy and most importantly from being FREE.

NOTE: WE HAD A TECHNICAL ISSUE ON THIS EPISODE AND THERE IS A LOT OF WHITE NOISE. WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE BAD AUDIO. This week on the show we are taking our subject from a writing that Crazy Heart did on The TPOK Profile. The point of the writing was to get people talking and debating. We want to raise the level of conversation and debate in our lifestyle. The world moves forward when people choose to look at things in new and exciting ways. It's easy to get comfy about something in your life. It can almost take on legendary status for some, especially when groups are involved. But is it the only thing that matters? Is there something different? Is it for everyone? Sometimes people don't want to be apart of the majority and will strike out on their own to be unique and expand their experiences. It's those people who push us forward.

Pandora is a poly, submissive, masochistic, sadist from New Hampshire. We hear how she got her start and made many mistakes but then found her way. She now enjoys a rich and kinky life by having put the work in. As always, communication is the key. She is listed on FetLIfe as "Evolving". I think that describers her perfectly. You can find Pandor on FetLife here: https://fetlife.com/users/499341

We talk this week about doing kink and things in your life purely for the love of it. Find what you love in kink and do that thing so that it fills your soul. Don't do things because that's what is popular or that's what the majority says you should. Do your kink because it is simply the thing that makes you happy. If the people around you are not happy with your kink then find some people that are for you. On the flip side of all this is that we should not pressure people do our kinks or go to the same events that we go to because that's what we love. Tell them about it and let them find their joy and love for whatever it is that fills that void in their kink and life.
