    Honey Brooks

    In this episode of The Peripheral, I sit down for a candid, wide-ranging conversation with Honey Brooks, an Australian OnlyFans creator, content entrepreneur, wife, and mother who shares her life openly with her husband in an open marriage. We dive deep into how Honeyy transitioned from a "normal mum" life into the adult industry, the realities of building a successful OnlyFans business (and why it's far from easy money), the power of radical communication in relationships, navigating judgment and online hate, and how openness has strengthened her marriage rather than threatened it.   https://honeyybrooksvip.com/ https://www.instagram.com/honeyybrooks/

    ECT with Kat

    The Peripheral, host Justin sits down with Kat, who shares her deeply personal journey through treatment-resistant depression and her experience with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Kat opens up about reaching a point where nothing else worked, leading her to ECT as a last-resort option. What followed was profound relief from her depression—but at a steep cost: extensive memory loss resembling amnesia, gaps in her personal history, and the challenge of piecing her life back together. She candidly discusses: The decision to pursue ECT and what the treatments were like The devastating impact of memory erasure and retrograde/anterograde amnesia Her long road to recovery, relearning her own life, and personal growth Why she would never choose ECT again for herself Her balanced perspective: not wanting to discourage others, as ECT can be life-saving for some people when other treatments fail This episode explores the complexities of mental health treatments, the real human cost of side effects, and themes of resilience, acceptance, and moving forward after profound loss.

    Corrections

    Megan never saw herself working behind prison walls. But when family expectations collide with personal values, she finds herself donning a uniform—not out of passion, but out of a quiet hope to be seen, accepted, and maybe even understood.  This episode explores Megan's journey into the correctional system, where she learns to navigate the tension between duty and identity. She makes observations about her peers who seem to judge her the same way they judge the ones they oversee.  Do you choose approval for others or yourself?

    From Death to Burial: Funeral director Ben Schmidt tells all!

    Today, I speak with Ben Schmidt, a licensed funeral director and content creator. I ask him questions about what happens after you die, how the body is prepared for last rites, and what families should expect during the process. We also delve into the case of Kendrick Johnson—the teen who died under mysterious circumstances in a gym mat—and the condition in which his body was returned to his family. We really get into the weeds, nerding out on the details surrounding embalming and cremation. I even ask Ben about the pros and cons of smoking formaldehyde. Ben shares some fascinating scientific insight into the embalming process, especially in the first 20 minutes. Personally, I love the level of detail, but don't worry—we mix up the topics regularly throughout the episode.

    Xavier Virtual Nobody

    I met Xavier many years ago at a meetup in California. He's incredibly talented and radiates positivity. Over the years, he's been involved in several music projects as a singer and songwriter, and we hit it off immediately. In today's episode, we discuss a family vacation he took with his father—what should have been a relaxing getaway in a tropical paradise instead turned into a tense ordeal, navigating family conflicts. Adding alcohol to the mix doesn't help.    https://open.spotify.com/artist/0ai61DeA6TloJOZ8TYcqMf?si=Mx9Anxn1RCCbybz3QgE_WQ   https://www.instagram.com/virtualnobodies/

    Consent

    "Consent is the voluntary, informed, and enthusiastic agreement to engage in an activity, particularly when it comes to personal boundaries or intimate situations. It involves clear communication, mutual respect, and understanding that any party has the right to say "no" at any time, without facing pressure or consequences. Consent is crucial for building trust, ensuring safety, and promoting healthy, respectful interactions in all areas of life." I pulled this definition of consent from ChatGPT because even a robot gets it when the rest of the world seems to struggle.  CONSENT CAN BE WITHDRAWN AT ANYTIME  Today's episode I speak with Kenna about a situation she found herself where she became intimate with a man who did not respect her wishes, care about her as a person and only wanted to take. She shares details about the attack, the actions she took and the emotional toll it left.  As much as I like to mix my topics up, I felt this was needed to piggyback off the last update episode. I have many more topics coming up, from morticians to healthcare.
