    About this Episode

    If you’re in a relationship, we can all agree that connection is the force that brought you together. By what happens when that synergy, emotional intimacy and unapologetic, passionate sex goes missing, to the point we feel frustrated and lost? Or you might be having the same fights over and over, without a real conclusion. To the point, that it feels like we are going through the motions instead of leveling up.  It could be that the sex isn’t exciting and bringing you closer together. Maybe you don’t orgasm during sex, or you’re rarely having sex at all. Some begin to wonder why your relationship looks so different from what you dreamed of, and whether it’s even worth it. And that thought is upsetting, because you formed your relationship for a reason. 

    On this weeks episode, we talk about The Craft of Intimate Coupledom with Ken Blackman, a former Apple software engineer turned international sex and intimacy educator and relationship coach, Ken is in his 24th year helping couples co-create a thriving, fulfilling life partnership and a gourmet sex life. His work has garnered mentions in Business Insider, Playboy, Huffpost, BBC, Tim Ferriss' 4-Hour work week, Cosmopolitan, AskMen, and much much more. Ken's powerful, unapologetic break from conventional relationship advice is shifting the world conversation around love and committed coupledom.

    Sexual Market Value

    Sexual Market Value

    Sexual market value (SMV) is your worth to other players in the sexual marketplace. The higher your SMV, the more leverage you have in the game of dating. In other words, Sexual market value is the currency of the dating world. It is just what you bring to the table. For women it is beauty, youth and personality and for men it is looks, money, status, personality, body, etc.

    Swedish Whisky

    Swedish Whisky

    With the craft distilling boom tightening its grip throughout Europe and around the world, Mackmyra looks increasingly like an old stager, having fired up its stills for the first time as long ago as 1999. This is whisky with a distinctly Scandinavian accent, gaining its smoke from a combination of peat and juniper, and employing the local Swedish oak in its maturation. Meanwhile, Spirit of Hven offers something similarly idiosyncratic – Sweden’s first island malt, located as it is on Hven (or Ven) in the Öresund Strait between Sweden and Denmark.

    In this episode, we talk about Swedish Whisky.

    Women and Tantra

    Women and Tantra

    In tantra, there are two important poles of energy known as Shiva and Shakti. Shiva and Shakti have various spheres of existence and operation in the cosmos and in the individual. In ordinary human society man and woman represent Shiva and Shakti respectively. In the tantric tradition, the woman is considered to be higher than the man so far as the tantric initiations are concerned. This should by no means be understood as a social claim. It is purely a spiritual attitude in relation to the evolution of higher consciousness. The frame of a woman, her emotions, and her psychic evolution are definitely higher than that of a man.

    In this episode, Certified Tantra educator, and founder of yestantra.com, Dominique D'Vita speaks about women and tantra. She tells us about the female orgasm and what men think women want in bed. Also, she speak about the reasons why women feel they are in a sexless marriage. Most importantly, she clarifies why women need to feel safe, in order to orgasm. Lastly, she talks about sub pleasure rituals women and men can do to be better partners.
