    We need to destigmatize Porn - here is why | Ep. 21

    TW: mentioning of sexual violence, non-consensual acts, rape porn, child porn, incest  Most of us watch and still do not dare to talk about it: Of course, today's episode is all about porn. Porn is an absolute taboo in our society and is very negatively connotated: It distorts our body image, it does not represent reality and it supports unethical content. But what if porn also had some positive sides to it? Can we use porn as a safe space to explore our sexuality, or to be fully in control of our own sexuality?  All it takes is talking openly about porn to teenagers and adolescents and drawing a clear line between porn and real-life sex. We need to destigmatize porn as a society to ensure ethical content and ethical working conditions for sex workers. Porn is not going anywhere, so let's start rethinking our preconceptions about it.

    Intention Setting for life changes

    Happy 2022, everyone!!! Today's episode is about intention setting - perfect for the new year. But instead of mindlessly trying to stick to unachievable resolutions, I suggest you take a more mindful and spiritual approach to intention setting. So, forget about the idea of new year's resolutions and start intentionally changing habits and patterns which are holding you back in life.  I wish everyone an amazing year full of love, health and happiness.  As always, I will publish a post about this episode on my Instagram: @iammybestfriend.podcast  Love, Paloma xxx

    "Your inner child is your creative fire. It is your freedom" - Using creativity to heal ft. Chiara | Ep. 15

    Happy Happy Sunday, y'all.  This is probably one of my favourite episodes. I am joined by Chiara, an Italian artist and a friend of mine who was so much wisdom to share about creativity. We talk about how to deal with creative blocks, how society inhibits us from expressing our creativity freely, and how being creative can help us connect to our inner child. We get philosophical and spiritual - the best combo ever. This episode is worth a listen!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Check out Chiara's work on her Instagram: @chiaracolturi  As always, you are welcome to contact me on Instagram on @iammybestfriend.podcast

    The depressing topic of antidepressants | Ep. 14

    TW: Suicidal Thoughts, Anxiety, Depression, Self-loathing Happy Sunday everyone! Today I am talking about antidepressants - how they work, my experience with them, and why I have decided to start using these meds. As always, this is an account of MY experiences and I am by no means saying that antidepressants are magic - you have to go to therapy and put in the work, but they definitely help a lot. That said, not everyone shines when using medication - some use natural medicine, or do yoga and meditation. Whatever works for YOU is what should be your priority.  Lots of Sunday Love from me, xx Check out my Instagram, where I am currently celebrating a mindful December with many videos!!!  @iammybestfriend.podcast
