Recently I went to my partner Scott and began a conversation where I stated that there were two times in my life that my cup had felt "overflowing". Both involved opening my relationship and having additional partner play.

Now - feeling full or even almost full in our love and sexual lives is a fantastic thing. 

I understand most people don't even get to that point of fulfillment.

As someone that believes that it is possible to live a life completely overflowing in abundance, I feel that relates to the love and sex and relationship parts of my life, too.

The discussion did not go well, his feelings were (understandably) hurt, he felt no one could ever be enough for me, I'd never be satisfied... and seriously turned and looked at me with some concern and said:

"Do you think you might have a sex addiction?".

This is not the first time someone has asked me this.

As a society, we get REALLY uncomfortable around conversations about sex.

Lots of us walk around with trauma.

It's crunchy, and uncomfortable, and triggering.

AND... not everyone experiences high libido. It's foreign to them. They do not experience it in their bodies at all.

I came out of the womb with a high sex drive and always have been a sexual, embodied person.

So let's dive into the conversation of Sex Addition & Sexual Needs!

Remember, the key to a great sex life is curiosity and experimentation. Jen’s “Mr Yellow” referenced in this episode.

If you're new to the world of BD$M, it's important to approach it with caution and care. K!nk educator London Crave shares her insights on how to explore BD$M in a safe and consensual manner.

5 Ways to Explore K!nk & Negotiate a Scene:

1. Focus on what you do want to try: When negotiating boundaries, it's important to approach it from a positive perspective rather than a negative one. Instead of focusing on what you don't want, focus on what you do want to try. This approach can help narrow the playing field and make it easier to control the scene.

2. Avoid negotiating mid-scene: Negotiating during a scene can be clouded by the rush of endorphins, adrenaline, and dopamine. It's best to stop the scene and negotiate before continuing, rather than trying to negotiate during the scene.

3. Vet potential partners: Before engaging in pickup play, it's important to have a better understanding of how to vet and screen potential partners. The best place to find events and groups is FetL!fe, which is like a fet!sh Facebook. Attend meet and greets and get vetted before attending private events.

4. Negotiate aftercare: Drop can occur after scenes, great s/x, or big events, and it is when the feel-good brain chemicals crash out, causing physical and mental effects. To deal with drop, it is essential to negotiate aftercare, which is how to take care of oneself and the people involved in the scene after it is over.

5. Treat negotiations as a seduction: Negotiations can be playful, fun, and teasing. It's important to bring the same mood to the negotiations as you would to the scene itself. Negotiations do not have to be business-like or very thorough, but they should cover safety and boundaries.

Remember, exploring BD$M can be empowering and help individuals learn more about themselves. But always prioritize safety, consent, and communication.

About London:

London Crave (she/her) is a bis/xual, polyamorous k!nkster who has been active in the BD$M, non-monogamous, and s/x positive lifestyles for a decade. 

In that time, she has led 2 BD$M focused groups that held k!nk focused parties, movie nights, educational events, and other social activities.

She has presented classes and demos at various k!nk-focused events and dungeons in Arkansas, Oklahoma, and nationwide virtual events as well as the University or Arkansas, CAVU Center's Conference on Spirituality, S/xuality and Intimacy, and Konsplosion.

London is available for a variety of classes, panels, and discussion related to BD$M, ethical Non-Monogamy, s/x positivity, and s/xual expression and empowerment. She can be reached at cravinglondon42@gmail.com for all inquiries.

Shoppers are homebound in what is currently a voluntary isolation. Within the past week toilet paper, paper towels, pain relievers, masks and more are completely out of stock. Online is sold out too. We are weeks out, best case scenario, at being able to replenish our pantries.

I know that every morning I personally wake up believing that this must just be bad dream. But it’s not. The entire nation is dumfounded that this is our new reality. Some are saddened. Some are scared. Others angry, worried, lost, or anxious.

On this episode of Bricks & Clicks, I want to talk about why NOT to put all of your eggs in one basket, and 5 ways to protect your brand through creating a multi- platform selling strategy.

In this podcast, Andre and Suzanna share their journey from being in the military to their current work in s/xual healing and teaching. They discuss their open relationship and the course they created together, "Open to More," which helps others explore non-traditional relationship dynamics.

The most valuable lesson from this conversation is the importance of authentic communication in relationships and the need to reassess and renegotiate dynamics as individuals grow and change. They also mention the significance of maintaining little moments of connection to keep the relationship fresh.

Andre and Suzanna emphasize the importance of giving oneself permission to think differently and explore non-traditional paths in life.

They share their experiences with open relationships and shifting desires, and how they discovered what works for them. They also talk about the challenges they faced and the importance of communicating with their partners.

Perspectives on Life from my 97yo Grandmother Therese Grossman: Part I

I’ve been interviewing my 97yo grandmother over the past several years each time I visit her in Savannah.

Therese Grossman was born May 6th, 2025 in Savannah, GA.

Recently she has started having dementia, which is normal in someone her age. The brain starts to fade as the body begins to make it sway towards the end of living in this lifetime.

I just got back from visiting her, and wanted to share some of the wisdom that I’ve gathered.

There is something magical about sitting across from someone that has been through:

• Women being allowed to vote
• Stalin gaining a leadership role in the Soviet Union
• The Great Depression
• Seeing a black ma hanging from a tree when walking home from Kindergarten
• World War II
• Hitler creating the Nazi Party
• The first McDonald’s
• Pearl Harbor
• D-Day
• Korean War
• First hydrogen bomb
• DNA 🧬 awareness was born
• End of racial segregation
• Castro takeover of Cuba
• JKF assassination
• MLK assassination
• First Moon landing
• Roe vs. Wade abortion made legal
• Personal Computer
• Aids
• The internet
• Amazon.com
• Cloning
• Google
• ISS
• War in Iraque
• Hurricane Katrina
• 9-11
• War in Afghanistan
• Outliving 3 husbands and 1 daughter
• The iPhone
• First black President
• First woman Vice President
• Nasa flies by Pluto

The first thing she wanted to share was how to live to 97.

3 Ways to Stay Young:

1. Attitude & belief system
2. Eat healthy
3. Exercise

She then shares with us what her exercise and movement program looks like weekly:

1. Exercise Class that she leads (she's the oldest one there!)

2. Zumba class on a DVD

3. Qigong in the park

4. Exercise bike

She’s outlived 3 husbands, several lovers, and a daughter. Lots and lots of friends.

She only recently retired her sex life. She told me at 90 that she was complete in that department.

I don’t know about you, but I’m looking forward to a very long life filled with love, and happiness, pleasure, lots of sex, and creating some amazing memories. I want to learn, and laugh and love so hard that at 90 I can say “ok, I am complete”.

XO,

Jen

I'm thrilled to share with you the latest episode of our podcast, where we dive deep into a topic that's often left unspoken - postpartum intimacy and relationship dynamics. Our guest, Brianna Carey, owner of Intimacy Evolution, shares her personal journey and professional insights on this matter.

The Postpartum Intimacy Challenge: After childbirth, many women struggle to reconnect with their bodies and sexuality. Brianna story is a testament to this, as she experienced physical pain and emotional guilt when trying to resume her intimate life.

The Healing Journey: Brianna discovered she had scar tissue and vaginismus, leading to her pain. She embarked on a healing journey, using pelvic floor therapy and vibration therapy to reprogram her body to associate pleasure instead of pain.

The Power of Patience: Brianna emphasizes the importance of taking things slow, removing pressure, and focusing on pleasure rather than penetrative sex. She also highlights the impact of breastfeeding on arousal and lubrication, suggesting scheduling intimate moments and gradually building up desire.

The Role of Pelvic Floor Therapy: Pelvic floor therapists specialize in addressing issues related to the pelvic floor, such as painful sex or complications after surgeries. Brianna dispels the misconception that incontinence is always caused by weak pelvic floor muscles, noting that tightness can also be a factor.

Support for Postpartum Dads: The first year after childbirth is often the toughest on a relationship. Brianna and her partner, Mark, aim to help couples repair their relationship quickly by creating a strong foundation of communication. They emphasize the importance of offering support and community for both men and women.

I hope these insights spark your curiosity and encourage you to listen to the full episode. Brianna's story is a testament to the power of resilience, self-discovery, and open communication.

Remember, it's okay to take your time, to seek help, and to communicate openly with your partner. You're not alone in this journey.

I'm thrilled to share with you the 100th episode of our podcast!

It's been an incredible journey, and I couldn't have done it without your support. To celebrate this milestone, I invited back two of our favorite guests & my friends, Tony and Cristina, for a deep dive into their lives beyond the usual topics.

Sharing more of our story [00:49:19] The importance of sharing more about themselves beyond being open relationship coaches and their plans to build a sex-positive and BDSM community.

This episode is a celebration of not just the podcast, but also the journey of personal growth, exploration, and embracing one's true self. I hope you find it as enlightening and inspiring as I did.

Classically trained opera singer @lanaviolette was repeatedly told she had no place on the stage or in the arts.

Lana found Burlesque, and she found her Tribe as well as an empowering, body-positive space that allowed her to mix all of her talents: opera singer + dancer + production manager + pasties artist into one fabulous outlet.

Let us take you on a journey with a behind-the-scenes look at what becoming a burlesque artist looks like, what it takes to be a burlesque performer, and how difficult the system currently is to even have burlesque performed in your local city.

Today I'm joined by my husband Derek, and I'm so excited to have him on the show! By day he hosts a 3 hour sports talk radio show called The Ruscin & Zach Show, all about Arkansas sports. By night, he helps me wrangle our 2 kids and Timmy, our long haired dachshund. He supports me as I run a multi-million dollar business, my team and clients, and has made more Walmart sample drop offs for me than I'm betting any man in Northwest Arkansas. We're talking all about manifesting. Spouses, houses, cars, and vacat ions. We also spill how we've intentionally created the life of our dreams, and how you can too!

If you’ve ever made a purchase because of a social media post, then you know first hand how good photography can help increase sales and find ideal shoppers. Lifestyle photography in particular is attracting shoppers, partly due to the rise of social media influencers who deliver organic content, and ads, through lifestyle photography that their audience actually wants to see. Apex Drop founder and CEO, Zak Stahlsmith explained this shift in preferring ads from influencers over ads from companies. “Influencers are a trusted space where people are listening and they trust their opinions. And brands are having such a hard time breaking into that trust, that they are now asking influencers to help them,” Stahlsmith said. He noted there's been a massive shift in the marketing space towards these real and authentic people talking about products and services in a way that's more easily receptive to customers. In other words, their ads don’t feel like ads. Brands who are looking to take advantage of the benefits of lifestyle photography, as influencers do, can pick up a few tips. Stahlsmith recommends the following best practices for nailing the shot in an authentic way. 1. Use your first, ideally candid, shot. “If you want something that's engaging, try not to polish it at all try and make it that first shot,” Stahlsmith said. 2. Skip the filters, including ones that whiten teeth or enhance beauty features like freckles. If you are going to use filters, he suggests not using the standard plug in filters. 3. Photos taken in motion translate to a more real feeling for audiences and help the shot avoid looking staged.

I had the pleasure of hosting Kevin, also known as The Bratty Cat on TikTok. Kevin is not just an amazing human and one of my favorite TikTokers, but also a member of the kink community, non-monogamous, has 4 partners, and 4 cats.

The journey in the kink and polyamorous communities [00:01:16] Kevin discusses his experiences in the kink and polyamorous communities, including his transition from swinging to polyamory and his interest in BDSM.

The concept of a masochistic bratty submissive [00:04:35] Kevin explains the three components of being a masochistic bratty submissive: masochism, brattiness, and submission.

Understanding the dynamics of being a brat and a brat tamer [00:06:27] Kevin delves into the unique relationship between a brat and a brat tamer, discussing how brats challenge authority and how brat tamers handle and guide them.

Negotiating Boundaries and Consent [00:09:10] Discussion about negotiating boundaries and consent in the kink community, including the inevitability of crossing lines and the need for communication and resolution.

Types of Punishments in BDSM [00:10:11] Explanation of the two types of punishments in BDSM, including punishment for wrongdoing and punishment as a means to control bratty behavior.

Managing Multiple Partners in Polyamory [00:12:34] Insight into the speaker's experience of managing multiple partners, including the unique circumstances of each relationship and the challenges of balancing time and communication.

Reluctance to Ask for Sex [00:17:40] Kevin discusses his struggle with asking for sex and the fear of coming off as sexually aggressive.

Difficulty Vocalizing Desires [00:19:27] Kevin talks about the challenge of vocalizing his desires as a submissive and the importance of explicit communication.

Repression and Inability to Communicate Desires [00:22:04] The host shares her observations of women's repression and inability to vocalize desires during sexual encounters, emphasizing the need for empowerment and communication.

Hierarchy: Definition and Misconceptions [00:27:04] Kevin explains his definition of hierarchy and why he believes everyone should work towards being non-hierarchical.

Descriptive Hierarchy vs. Actual Hierarchy [00:27:44] Kevin clarifies the difference between descriptive hierarchy (shared finances, living arrangements, etc.) and actual hierarchy (power dynamics and decision-making).

Non-Hierarchical Relationships and Embracing Change [00:29:43] Kevin discusses non-hierarchical relationships, where feelings and emotions are allowed to shift and change, and opens up about the possibility of drifting apart from his long-term partner.

The journey of finding new partners [00:36:24] The host discusses how letting go of a previous partner led to finding a new partner and the positive experiences that came with it.

Polyamory and multiple partners [00:37:58] The guest explains the concept of polyamory and talks about his partner's other partners, including a nearby partner and a long-distance partner.

Jealousy and the fluidity of relationships [00:39:15] The guest discusses his experience with jealousy in relationships and emphasizes the importance of recognizing that love doesn't last forever and that partners are autonomous.

One day I realized that I kept thinking to myself that my dryer must be shrinking my clothes. I noticed that each time I put on clothes they seemed to fit tighter and tighter. But surely that’s the only explanation, right?

Just last week my husband was yammering on about how our scale must be broken. (There was lots of eye rolling on my part!)

These are the excuses we tell ourselves.

You have permission to take care of yourself today. Start small, then build upon each self care act that you incorporate so that it becomes a habit.

*UPDATE: We have recorded an "Open Relationships Part II", so head over there once you're done with this episode!

Since the beginning of human life, there have been all kinds of different types of relationships.

There were tribes where women ruled.

And others where many men "contributed" their seed during procreation to ensure the strength and virility of the babies.

We lived in community. 

Today's world is dominated by a patriarchal society where we view partnership as property and ownership and lifelong obligation.

Today I'm interviewing my closest friends Tony Hatch & Cristina Lopez, an engaged couple in a 9 year polyamorous partnership.

We discuss the different types of open relationship, the negatives and positives of being "in the lifestyle", and our unique experiences dating multiple people at one time.

Welcome back to Bricks & Clicks! Today I have the pleasure of interviewing Multi Six Figure Mentor and Coach at Danielle Addison The Magnetic Business Coach.

I’ve been watching Danielle for years. I’m that fan girl that likes EVERY post, and feels a connection to every piece of content she puts out on social media.

Today we’re going to talking about: The Energy of $20K months: what it takes for creating multiple 5 figure months with ease.

Danielle has been an entrepreneur for 17 year. Multiple businesses, all 6 figure.

One of the things she learned along the way is operating with Feminine energy, operating her business with flow.

2 different ways to grow a business:

1. “Hustle” Masculine energy.

I didn’t believe that winning was trading time for money.

Q: What if I could do this with ease?

“Allow yourself the belief that it can be easy (to make money).”

“The less I work, the more I can receive”

“Allow your natural talents to lead you.”

“Invest freely and invest in yourself. Invest in your vibration.”

“Independence comes from trauma. It comes from not feeling supported. That money won’t show up for you. If you live your life with that mentality, you’ll never have it.”

Living paycheck to paycheck doesn’t have to be your future. 

Allow yourself to believe you’re always supported. 

How to Get into the Feelings of Joy:

1. Take the first step and say yes to something you normally wouldn’t say yes to.
2. Track your miracles and tell others- it will create MORE miracles!
3. Show up and watch the Universe show up for you.
4. Make time for magic. Your calendar is your magic wand.

Today I'm sharing with you how I show up full both inside and outside of the bedroom. 

The world needs us to show up.

There are humans out there desperate to hear your message. It might just be the one that saves them.

Stop hiding your light.

Instead, be a beacon. A lighthouse.

And in bed, it's safe to fully be you.

Join me in this heartfelt episode of raw vulnerability as I discuss how I'm bravely showing up and choosing to "be" in this lifetime.

NOTE: I share some explicit and detailed information about my s*x life in the second half of this episode as I go into each of the Blueprints. Grab your headphones for this episode - it's not for children.

2020 has been a chaotic year, to say the least. For Jennifer Ruscin, host of Bricks & Clicks, navigating this year has cemented a practice in taking care of herself, something that has proven imperative to maintaining a healthy grasp of herself, her company, and her family. The effects of self-care are far-reaching, rippling throughout her life, and planting seeds of success in every corner. In this episode, Ruscin dives straight into actionable tips for how to take care of yourself, make more money, and grow your business. “Money flows where the attention goes,” is an age-old adage but one that resonates in today’s attention lead economy. Ruscin advocates directing that attention to less, not more. Let go of what no longer serves your attention, be less available, and focus your energies on being and doing just a few key things. Self-care looks different for everyone, but Ruscin’s 5 questions needle listeners to find their own “Why.” Get rid of the brain clutter and clear out space to welcome in new information gleaned from this episode of “Bricks and Clicks.”

Rachel Maine is a therapist turned sex and relationship coach, and today is all about PLEASURE.

We talk male & female pleasure.

How to talk to kids about pleasure.

Body Mapping.

How to bring more pleasure to your partner.

Jennifer Kaylo Ruscin guides retailers to be the hero and navigate the industry's biggest B2B challenges online and offline.

This is a very personal episode for me, as Scott and I are currently taking a break with one of our girlfriends and things on this end are tender.

But I believe in sharing what being in an open relationship in real time is like, and my hope is that my transparency and raw feelings help you in navigating your partnerships, too.

This is a recording I did for MerchantWords last year in preparation for Prime Days.

3 Growth Spurt Client Best Practices:

1.  Snag Prime Day Deals - remember this is the perfect time to capture new customers

• July 8, 2022: Prime Exclusive Discounts must be submitted
• Prime Exclusive discounts - Do not cost but only reach Prime members unlike coupons who reach everyone. Will be displayed on a deals page within Amazon for shoppers on Prime days. See guidelines below in order to participate. These will be your best bet to capture new to brand prime shoppers.

Guidelines:

• Item needs to be nationally Prime shipping eligible product.
• The Prime Exclusive Discount must meet all regular eligibility criteria.
• Product must have at least 3-star rating or no rating.
• The discount must be at least 10% off the non-prime member non-promotional price.
• The discount must be at most 80% off the non-prime member non-promotional price.

2. Offer deep coupon discounts - remember this is the perfect time to capture new customers!

• June 10, 2022: Amazon Coupons must be submitted
• Coupons are highlighted and visible to shoppers inside of AMZ, even without clicking on your product page and also impact the buy box. These will be your best bet for Prime Day sales. Coupons work by clips and redemptions. You get charged .60 per clip whether the shopper uses the coupon or not. You can add up to 50 items and take a percent off or a dollar amount off (this amount can't be less than 5% or over 80% of your lowest price on the item). Then you set a budget for your coupons (Your budget will be shared among the following 2 costs: USD equivalent of the discount you are offering and your redemption fee of .60 cents). The coupon will automatically shut off once 80% of the budget is utilized.

3. Send a Prime Day email blast to your external email list, driving them back to Amazon.

We saw between a 2X - 12X increase in daily sales over each Prime Day for clients that used the above strategies.

Prime day is Amazon's Christmas and shoppers like big discounts. There are additional ways (other than above) you can play, listed below.

*PROMOs don't work unless you Market like crazy outside of Amazon. Not all promos impact your buy box. We had a client send out 10,000 emails and didn't receive one redemption on his promo that ran for 30 days.

*Bundling doesn't seem to be effective because the AMZ shopper buys 1 item at a time, so the value add of a % off for multiple items in one purchase doesn't seem to translate in this online space the same way it would in say a Bath & Body works.

*Lightning Deals - Amazon will offer these and showcase you on their deals page - You pay $150-$500 per deal and they last for a certain amount of time, normally an hour or so. We have never had a good return on these.

FBA inventory cut-off is June 20th, 2022 (Inventory should arrive at Amazon FBA centers by this date)

Welcome back to another Bricks and Clicks podcast! Today, I’m interviewing Erin Phillips of Pinckney Palm, a social media agency out of North Carolina.

When I have questions about social media marketing, advertising and content creation, she’s my go-to-gal.

Today, we’re talking about Instagram’s dominating viewing presence, Facebook relevance and what the heck TikTok is.

I learned so many new things just during our recording, like how I can take my content calendar, use one new piece of content I create, and slice it into IGTV and IG / FB Stories, add a carousel of pictures to my feed, then hop on over to LinkedIn and show the behind-the-scenes for other business owners on how I did it!

Relationship and s/x coach Ashley Garcia reminds us that our bodies were designed for pleasure.

Think about it....

The wind on our skin. 

Someone playing with our hair.

The sun warming on our skin.

Someone’s hot breath on our neck.

G******s that become erect when touched.

Beauty to look upon around us.

Our lovers' eyes.

Everything around us was designed to be pleasing to us… including our own bodies.

And you are ALLOWED to try all the things.

Give yourself permission.

5 Ways Brands Can Prepare for Holiday Sales

Host Jennifer Ruscin shares her insights on how to make an impact in retail buyer meetings without an actual product. Ruscin has extensive knowledge of the process. She’s successfully helped companies sell millions of dollars of products to Walmart and Amazon.

This week is a solo episode, where I discuss “What is Polyamory?”.

Polyamory Defined: Polyamory as a heart-centered approach to relationships, where the focus is on building deep, meaningful connections with multiple partners. It's not just about sex; it's about love, connection, and emotional intimacy.

Polyamory vs. Swinging: I explore the difference between polyamory and swinging. While the former prioritizes emotional and intellectual connections, the latter is more about transactional sex with less emphasis on personal connections.

Types of Polyamory: There are various forms of polyamory, including poly fidelity, solo poly, hierarchical polyamory, non-hierarchical polyamory, throuples, and kitchen table polyamory. Each type offers a unique dynamic, catering to different needs and preferences.

Parallel Polyamory: I introduce the concept of parallel polyamory, where multiple relationships operate independently, allowing for distinct relationships to coexist without merging.

My Personal Journey: I share my personal journey with polyamory. My partner, Scott, and I are in a hierarchical throuple and practice kitchen table polyamory. My story is a testament to the fact that polyamory can be a fulfilling and enriching lifestyle when navigated with respect, honesty, and open communication.

Free Guides: I offer two free guides - one on how to open up a relationship and another on the different types of polyamory. These resources are invaluable for anyone considering an open relationship.

The world of polyamory is as diverse as it is beautiful. It's all about understanding what kind of open relationship you want and having open, honest conversations with your partners.

Explore the world of polyamory with an open mind. You never know, you might discover something new about yourself and your relationships.

There is a better way to break up with people, and I'm committed to showing how it's possible with my own life.

After 2 ex-husbands and a full-time life partner that currently co-parent my boys with me, I've discovered how to coexist peacefully and lovingly with my current and past partners.

This takes a bit of rewiring and rethinking and reprogramming from what you see in society, and how you've been raised.

But it's time to do things differently.

I'm thrilled to introduce you to a dear friend and colleague, Dora Bradford. Dora is a women's healthcare provider and an intimacy coach who has been working as a nurse practitioner for almost three decades. We're going to delve into the topic of monogamy and passion in relationships, a subject that is close to my heart. The Journey to Intimacy Coaching Dora and I met during our training as sex and love coaches and quickly formed a strong bond. Dora, a divorced woman with two adult children, was inspired to transition into intimacy coaching after witnessing the struggles of women who were hesitant to discuss their intimacy issues with their partners. Monogamy and Passion: Can They Coexist? As someone who has been in two monogamous marriages that lacked passion, I've often wondered if marriage and passion are synonymous. Can they coexist? Dora believes they can. She shares her perspective on creating a sensual and intimate experience with a partner, emphasizing the importance of touch. Not necessarily sexual, but caressing and being slow and methodical in exploring each other's bodies. Creating a Sensual Experience Dora mentions a book that suggests using eyelashes to caress a partner's body, creating a fine and sensual touch. I can relate to this, as my therapist once suggested various ways to make love throughout the day, such as doing household chores, picking kids up from school, grabbing the groceries, or giving a massage. Dora suggests feeding your partner delicious snacks and creating a sensory experience with mood lighting, music, and scents. We both agree that planning and prioritizing intimate moments is crucial to avoid falling into a rut in a relationship. Finding Time for Intimacy We also discuss creative ideas for finding time for intimacy in busy schedules. Suggestions include scheduling intimate time, getting a babysitter or asking family members for help with childcare, booking a hotel room, or taking advantage of opportunities when the kids are at school. The Frequency of Sex in Relationships The frequency of sex in relationships can vary greatly from person to person. Some women go months without sex, while others have sex multiple times a day. Communication and Compromise Dora emphasizes the importance of communication and finding a compromise that satisfies both partners' needs. Even if gourmet sex isn't possible multiple times a week, couples can still engage in spontaneous and unplanned intimate moments. Reigniting a Sex Life Finally, we discuss how to reignite a sex life when a couple has fallen into the rut of living like roommates. Dora suggests hugging, holding each other, and engaging in eye gazing to gradually reconnect and create a sense of safety. I hope you found this conversation as enlightening as I did. Remember, it's crucial to make time for intimacy and prioritize it despite the demands of daily life.  If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, write a review, and share the podcast with your friends.  Your support through my Patreon account helps keep this podcast going.  Connect with Dora: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachdorabradford/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dora.bradford Group Coaching Program: Website: https://www.dorahelpmyintimacy.com/ Connect with Jen: https://linktr.ee/jenniferkayloruscin Leave me a voice message that I can share on future episodes: ⁠https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theopenbedroompodcast/message⁠ This podcast is sponsored by my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/JenniferKayloRuscinPodcast Shop sex toys ⁠HERE⁠! $10 OFF ADULT TOYS & LUBE: Use JENK at Checkout.

No industry has been harder hit by the coronavirus pandemic than retail. So how has retail adapted, and does working-from-home fit into retail work? "Bricks and Clicks" host Jennifer Kaylo Ruscin explores how retail buyers are pivoting to online work and what that looks like for both the buyer and the product seller. She welcomes guest Alli Ball, a former buyer for Bi-Rite and founder of Retail Ready, an online course helping food companies grow their sales both in-store and online.

Ball is confident that buyers are actually benefiting from working from home in a focused, uninterrupted space. Sellers too have also had a leg up by receiving buyer's undivided attention. In Ball’s program, she encourages students to practice pitches at length before pitching to their dream company.

“There’s something exciting about leveling the playing field here and giving all categories a chance to connect with buyers.” Said Ball. Sellers have shifted to sending their product directly to buyers’ homes. Buyers can relish in the unboxing process, and sellers can curate this as an enjoyable experience that elevates their product

Small businesses gain insight and benefit from the Retail Ready program, learning marketing and branding initiatives that appeal to the appreciation of unboxing something special.

All companies rely on content to get their message to the world. It comes in many shapes in forms: blogs, emails, Instagram, Twitter, web pages. But, what exactly is content, SEO and how do you make yours better?

I'm excited to share some insights from my latest podcast episode with Dr. Alison Ash, an intimacy coach, Stanford lecturer, and the founder of Turn On Love.

In this episode, we delved into the often-avoided topic of shame, particularly around intimacy and personal needs.

Dr. Aly shared her expertise on how to navigate through this complex emotion and cultivate healthier relationships.

Key takeaways:

1. Recognizing Shame: We discussed how shame is a natural response to societal expectations of self-reliance and independence. Acknowledging its presence is the first step towards healing.

2. Cultivating Safe Relationships: Dr. Aly emphasized the importance of fostering relationships where you feel safe, accepted, and a sense of belonging. It's within these relationships that we can gradually reveal our needs without fear of judgment.

3. Releasing Shame through Empathy: We explored how empathy and acceptance from others can help release the shame we carry. However, it's crucial to expose shame gradually to avoid overwhelming ourselves.

4. Challenging the Myth of Normality: Dr. Aly encouraged us to be authentic and share our true selves, even if it goes against societal norms. This authenticity can lead to a deeper sense of belonging.

5. Teaching Children about Needs: We touched on the importance of teaching children to identify and communicate their needs from an early age. This approach can promote a healthier understanding and acceptance of needs in society.

6. The Art of Saying "No": We discussed the challenge of saying "no" when we can't meet someone else's needs. Dr. Ash advocates for delivering the "no" with empathy and understanding.

But that's not all! We have an exciting episode coming up where Dr. Aly and I will be discussing champ pussy giving and receiving. Stay tuned for this enlightening conversation!

In the meantime, you can connect with Dr. Aly through the links provided in the show notes.

This week I'm talking (in graphic detail) about what it's like to have an FMF threesome. Warning: This is an episode for adults. The FMF Dynamic: In my open relationship, I've found the FMF dynamic (female-male-female) to be a fascinating exploration of intimacy. It's a dance of energy, attention, and touch, where everyone feels included and cherished. The Importance of Consent and Communication: Open relationships thrive on clear communication and consent. It's crucial to be mindful of each other's comfort levels and to ensure everyone is on the same page. The Joy of Sharing: I've discovered that sharing my partner with others is not just exciting, but also a way to explore different angles and experiences that may not be possible in a one-on-one setting. The Aftercare Experience: After an intimate encounter, the importance of aftercare cannot be overstated. It's a heavenly experience that involves snuggling, cuddling, and discussing future encounters to avoid any confusion or misunderstandings. Coaching: If you're experiencing any challenges in your open relationship, I'm here to help. My coaching sessions are affordable and designed to help you navigate the complexities of open relationships. Remember, the goal of open relationships is to bring partners closer together, not drive them apart. With guidance, they can be enjoyable, fulfilling, and sexually satisfying.

This week I get you all to myself... YUM!

I'm getting raw about my most profound lessons, ideas, and curiosities that have shaped my journey as I turn 40. I hope these nuggets of wisdom will spark your curiosity and inspire you to join me on my podcast.

1. The Power of Self-Discovery: My 20s were a whirlwind of self-discovery, from figuring out who I was to navigating marriage, motherhood, and a career. But it was the courage to leave an unfulfilling marriage that truly marked my journey towards self-realization.

2. Embracing Entrepreneurship: My 30s were transformative. I ventured into entrepreneurship, starting my own business, Growth Spurt Sales and Marketing. I made over $3 million dollars. My ultimate goal? To empower mothers to leave their cubicles, work from home, and enjoy the freedom to spend quality time with their children.

3. The Joy of Flexibility: My business has allowed me to work from various locations around the world, from Hawaii to Ireland. The joy of not having to wake up to an alarm clock is priceless. And yes, I do schedule massages on Monday mornings to celebrate my achievements!

4. The Importance of Self-Care: As an entrepreneur, I've learned that self-care is not a luxury, but a necessity. It's during these moments of relaxation that I generate my best business ideas.

5. Navigating Relationships: My journey through my 30s also involved navigating the complexities of relationships. From realizing the need for sexual exploration in my marriage to embracing the fluidity of relationships, it's been a rollercoaster ride.

6. The Value of Authenticity: As I step into my 40s, I've learned the importance of being true to oneself. By simply being myself, I attract clients who want to work with me and individuals who want to be my friend.

7. Embracing Change: As I look towards the future, I'm ready to embrace the changes that come with my children growing up and the challenges of becoming an empty nester.

I hope these insights have piqued your interest. If you'd like to hear more about my journey and the lessons I've learned along the way, I invite you to tune into the Open Bedroom podcast.
