    How a Child's SA Disclosure Can Impact Parents' Sex Lives with Dr. Imani Reynolds

    When a child discloses sexual abuse, the immediate focus is understandably on the survivor's healing. But what happens to the parents in the aftermath - specifically, to their romantic and sexual relationship? In this episode, Dr. Kate Balestrieri speaks with Dr. Imani Reynolds, a clinician at Modern Intimacy, whose pioneering research explores the hidden third relationship often overlooked in the healing process: the one between the parents. Dr. Reynolds’ work reveals the profound and often invisible impact that a child's abuse can have on a parent’s own sexuality, desire, and intimacy with their partner. They discuss the jarring experience of secondary traumatic stress, how intrusive thoughts can alter sexual fantasy and desire, and how partners often react and cope in vastly different ways, creating a new set of challenges for the relationship. This conversation offers a vital and compassionate look at how the entire family system is affected and provides a crucial perspective on the importance of parents addressing their own well-being. Key Themes Include: The Overlooked Impact on Parents Desire vs. Intimacy The Role of Secondary Trauma When a Fantasy Isn't a Fantasy Anymore: The Unseen Divide The Breakdown of Trust A Call to Care for the Whole System For more support, schedule a complimentary consultation, to explore how working with a clinician at Modern Intimacy might help.

    Why Hitting the Gym Won't Fix Your Anger with Dr. Ryan Martin

    We often think of intimacy as the meeting of minds and bodies, but what happens when your emotions—frustration, anxiety, or shame—hijack the moment? In this episode, Dr. Kate Balestrieri sits down with psychologist and author Dr. Ryan Martin to explore the critical link between emotional regulation and relational health. Dr. Martin, author of the new book Emotion Hacks: 50 Ways to Feel Better Fast, debunks the "Catharsis Myth" and explains why vigorous exercise when you're angry might actually be making things worse. Together, they unpack the neuroscience of anger, the importance of feeling uncomfortable emotions (not numbing them), and how to use your feelings as a source of vital information. If you’ve ever struggled to pause before reacting, felt overwhelmed by big feelings, or wondered how your emotional patterns affect your sex life and relationships, this episode is for you. Learn how to build your "emotional toolkit" and develop the skills to not just survive your feelings, but to use them for deeper connection.

    Are Deepfakes An Act Of Terrorism? with Soraya Chemaly

    Think deepfakes are just a privacy issue? Think again. We are conditioned to see sexual deepfakes as a crime against an individual’s reputation. But what if they are actually a weapon of mass control?  In this episode, Dr. Kate Balestrieri sits down with author Soraya Chemaly to blow the lid off the mainstream narrative. They argue that these digital violations aren't just about consent.  But in fact, they are stochastic terrorism: a systematic, male-supremacist tool designed to police women’s behavior through sheer terror.  They dive into the ugly underbelly of the "boy crisis," the tech industry’s victim-blaming band-aids, and why changing the way we think about sex and equality is the only armor that actually works against imposed sexualization.  If you’ve ever felt like the world is getting more dangerous for everyone online, this conversation will give you the language to understand why—and the tools to fight back.

    How to Have Better Sex with Dr. Nicole McNichols

    Dr. Kate Balestrieri interviews University of Washington professor Dr. Nicole McNichols who has taught “The Diversity of Human Sexuality” for about 15 years. They discuss McNichols’ book, “You Could Be Having Better Sex,” and answer a listener who wants to improve an already good sex life. Dr. McNichols introduces “micro-novelty” and explains how nonsexual forms of intimacy—intellectual, spiritual, aesthetic, and future-oriented—can strengthen sexual connection. She outlines her hierarchy of sexual needs (physical/psychological; social/emotional; creative/self-expressive) and reframes fantasies as pathways to desired feelings. They address mismatched effort, women’s sexual emotional labor (including the “fifth shift”), the harms of faking orgasms, and using curiosity, communication, and therapy to navigate blocks, emphasizing that pleasure is a birthright. 00:00 Meet Dr Nicole McNichols 01:20 UW Sex Class 02:10 Sex Ed Gaps 03:49 New Book Why 05:05 Listener Wants More (Question) 05:48 Micro Novelty Tips 07:05 Beyond Bedroom Intimacy 08:06 Intellectual Intimacy 10:21 Spiritual Aesthetic Intimacy 13:37 Permission For More 15:49 Sex Needs Pyramid 21:17 Fantasies As Metaphors 21:38 Sexual Growth Skills 22:42 The Fifth Shift Explained 25:00 Why Desire Drops 26:13 Stop Faking Pleasure 27:29 Talking Without Blame 29:38 When Truth Feels Betraying 33:30 Curiosity Questions That Work 38:42 Where To Find Dr. McNichols Dr. Nicole McNicholsBook: You Could Having Better Sex https://www.amazon.com/You-Could-Having-Better-Sex/dp/1668053772/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1PVG61UHELD4J&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.TGA7IggxO47gFh5N7FNfeBdXNGVVmI5-9DvqXOTAcaNsnnyIvLnAi7cUiILcSlagzzthTiIXbfp0sf7GuFRPS8CibcFU1gSObU0J26bQz5hxWLmIgIIGDDAifMs_B3yFxLFBl3-24vDuMyh_QUX5qg._m6W5rD2D4ok2dM0UpMgNTOy-DdC2wwNRdUC8KTgrYI&dib_tag=se&keywords=you+could+be+having+better+sex&qid=1771878717&sprefix=you+could,aps,195&sr=8-1 Website: www.nicolethesexprofessor.comInstagram (@Nicole_TheSexProfessor)TikTok: (@Nicole_TheSexProfessor) Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Misconceptions of a Resilience Mindset with Soraya Chemaly

    In this episode, Dr. Kate and renowned author, Soraya Chemaly, explore the misconceptions and dangers of resilience, highlighting the lack of social care and the value of care in society, highlighter in her new book: The Resilience Myth: New Thinking on Grit, Strength, and Growth After Trauma. Some of the key points include: - Resilience can be misconstrued and work against us when there is a lack of social care and value for care in society. - The concept of resilience has become detached from science and has proliferated as an ideology. - The science of resilience has biases and limitations, particularly in relation to gender and vulnerable populations. - Healing and resilience are not solely individual endeavors, but require community, relationships, and reflection. - Traditional notions of masculinity can hinder resilience and adaptability to change. - The idea of bouncing back to a pre-trauma state is a myth, and healing involves assimilating experiences and evolving as individuals. Rigid notions of masculinity can be harmful and lead to a lack of resilience. - Marginalized communities may overcompensate in one area to compensate for marginalization in another. - Cultivating an embodied awareness of our environments is important for resilience. - Resilience should be viewed from a relational perspective, emphasizing interconnectedness. -- Soraya Chemaly is a renowned journalist, activist, and author. Her work focuses on the words we use, the images we make, and how to act to build a better world. Her work will make you think, and give you plenty to talk about!
