    Becoming a Therapist - Olivia Duprez

    Polyam Wellness E017: Becoming a Therapist with Olivia Duprez What does it take to become a therapist, and what happens when you want to specialize in communities that traditional therapy doesn't always understand? In this episode of Polyam Wellness, Alonzo Banx sits down with Olivia Duprez, an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and founder of Open By Design, for a casual conversation about her journey into the mental health profession. We talk about the years of education, thousands of hours of supervised experience, the challenges of working with polyamorous, ENM, and kink communities, and why finding a therapist who truly understands your relationships matters. Olivia also shares some excellent advice about choosing a therapist, asking questions, and remembering that trust is something you build, not something you owe someone simply because they have a degree.

    How Big is a Penis, really?

    Forget the locker room, porn, bragging and folklore. How big is a penis, really? In Polyam Wellness E013, Noah puts a ruler to one of the questions a lot of men quietly carry around for years. What the research actually says about average size, how a penis is properly measured, growers versus showers, whether shoe size tells you anything, and how much size really matters to partners. The numbers may surprise you, but the bigger lesson is even simpler: a ruler can measure a penis. It cannot measure whether you are a good lover.

    Do Condoms Make you Safe?

    Do condoms keep you safe? No. They make sex safer, and that difference matters. In Polyam Wellness E012, Brandi Beckett looks at what condoms actually protect against, what they cannot protect against, why material and fit matter, how lubrication and storage affect them, and the mistakes that can turn a very effective barrier into a much less effective one. Condoms remain one of the best tools we have, but safer sex is bigger than anything that comes out of a foil wrapper.

    Elizabeth Schiff - Considerations for Consent.

    Consent is not a one-time yes. It is an ongoing conversation about boundaries, expectations, risk and the ability to stop when something changes. In Polyam Wellness E016, Alonzo Banx talks with sociologist and sex educator Dr. Elisabeth “Eli” Sheff about how consent is understood in BDSM and kink, why communication before a scene matters, what can happen when assumptions replace explicit agreements, and how alternative relationships can become complicated when they intersect with courts, custody and family life. The conversation also explores relationship compatibility, mixed monogamous and non-monogamous dynamics, and the importance of finding professionals who actually understand the communities they are serving. https://sheffconsulting.org/  https://www.bondingproject.com/  Explore Dr. Eli Sheff's most recent projects HERE

    Four Days After Prostate Surgery: Michael's Story

    Four days after a robot-assisted simple prostatectomy, Michael sits down with Alonzo for an unusually candid conversation about what brought him to surgery and what recovery actually feels like while it is still happening. From years of worsening urinary symptoms and medications that eventually stopped being enough, to an enlarged prostate, bladder diverticula, surgery, a catheter, and the first days afterward, Michael shares the parts men rarely talk about—and the one thing he wishes he had done much sooner: learn what was happening inside his own body and ask more questions.

    The Clitoris or where is the little man in the boat

    Most of us were taught that the clitoris is a tiny spot somewhere near the top of the vulva. That is true in roughly the same way that saying an iceberg is the part sticking out of the water is true. In Polyam Wellness E011, Kelsey Ireland takes us beyond the little man in the boat and into the anatomy most of us were never actually taught. Where the clitoris is, how much of it exists beneath the surface, why different bodies respond differently, and why knowing the anatomy matters for pleasure, communication, medical care and understanding your own body. Finding the clitoris was never supposed to be a trick.

    Periods Suck -  A Men's Primer.

    Periods are normal. They can also hurt, exhaust you, wreck your sleep, upset your stomach, change your mood, and generally make an ordinary day a lot harder. In Polyam Wellness E010, “Periods Suck: A Men’s Primer,” Kelsey Ireland gives men the education most of us never got. What a period actually is, why cramps happen, what PMS and PMDD mean, when pain or bleeding deserves medical attention, what menstrual products actually do, and perhaps most importantly, how to support someone without trying to explain their own body back to them. You do not have to experience a period to understand one. You just have to learn enough to stop being useless when someone you care about is having one.

    The Prostate and What It Does

    Most men know they have a prostate. Far fewer know what the hell it actually does until it starts demanding their attention. In Polyam Wellness E009, Noah takes us through one of the busiest intersections in the male body. What the prostate does, why it can affect urination, ejaculation, fertility and sexual function, what BPH and prostatitis actually mean, how PSA testing works, and when a change deserves medical attention. It is thirteen minutes of anatomy and health information most of us probably should have learned decades ago.
