  • Notes of an Aging Pervert with Janet Hardy - Ep 49

    Notes of an Aging Pervert with Janet Hardy - Ep 49
    Nov 6 2023
    Please join us for episode 49 of Open Deeply with the legendary, Janet Hardy. Janet is most known for the Ethical Slut, but she is a prolific writer of over a dozen groundbreaking books. In this episode, she reads from her soon to be published book, Notes of an Aging Pervert. This novel is SO kind, vulnerable and honest regarding the uncomfortable subjects of aging and facing mortality. We’re all going to die, but we remain avoidant of the subject. Janet holds our hand and makes thinking about this topic way easier. Here is one excerpt from the book, ““I’ve come to think of my lifetime as a relatively brief vacation, and my body as resortwear — perhaps a nice sundress, or a pair of comfy shorts. Like all vacations, this one will feel like it’s over much too soon.” She also discusses family, love, relationships, and of course, k1nk including several kinky memories. One of the most captivating parts of the book is when she tells the story of being present for her father’s “good death” which is mystical, awe inspiring and beautiful. In addition, the paperback is filled with Janet’s original raw and lovable artwork of herself and loved ones. In this interview Janet discusses the vulnerability of including nude drawings of herself and why she decided to include them. The book has a certain comfy and comforting quality to it, despite the scary topics, that makes one want to grab a blanket and some hot cocoa and curl up while reading it. It’s a love gift. It’s a book that helped me sit in reverence for this iconic human that has blazed a trail for so many, including me, so that in turn, our own path might not be so hard. We hope you join us for this captivating episode as we discuss this amazing book. Janet's bio: Janet W. Hardy is the author or coauthor of more than a dozen groundbreaking books about relationships and sexuality, including The Ethical Slut, which has sold more than 300,000 copies to date. She spent the first three decades of her life believing that she was the only person in the world who got turned on by thinking about spanking. She wrote her first book, The Sexually Dominant Woman, to help create a world in which nobody else would ever be that clueless. Janet has traveled the world as a speaker and teacher on topics ranging from ethical multipartner relationships to erotic spanking and beyond. She has appeared in documentary films, television shows, and more podcasts and radio shows than she can count. She has narrated audio versions of many of her books, and looks forward to doing more. Janet spent a quarter century as editor-in-chief of Greenery Press, the firm she founded in 1992, which went on to publish dozens of books about alternative sexuality and relationships. While she has retired from being a publisher, she goes on writing, drawing, editing and educating about sexuality. Janet lives the life of a kinky poly queer genderbent geezer in Eugene, Oregon, with her spouse and a whole lot of pets.

  • Punk Rocking Menopause with Dr. Kelly Casperson - Ep 47

    Punk Rocking Menopause with Dr. Kelly Casperson - Ep 47
    Oct 2 2023
    In my personal life, my many of my dear friends are sex positive thought leaders. This is a group of incredibly sexy, powerful, sexually embodied humans who identify as women. Despite all of our strength and knowledge, many of us were completely blind-sided by menopause. Here are just a few symptoms: decrease clitoral sensitivity (oh, fuck no), brain fog (not okay), painful sex (not on my watch), rapid weight gain (some gained thirty pounds in a year), decreased libido, and a variety of weird and painful health issues that came on in rapid succession. But you can’t make a group of vibrant vagina and vulva owners go quietly into the shadows. F*ck that shit. So we went searching. And one of my finds was the wonderful, Dr Kelly Casperson. Dr. Kelly Casperson is a board-certified urologist with a specialty in menopause. In this episode, we break down myths about estrogen, discuss the long list of benefits that come from being on systemic estrogen, along with how to maintain sexual vitality after age fifty. Please join us as we break down the culture lie that woman past fifty should slowly fade into the wood work, while concurrently exposing that the truth, that we are wise, powerful, sexy and ready to open deeply into the gorgeous flowers that we are. Dr. Casperson's bio: Dr. Casperson is a board-certified practicing urologist interested in the power of the mind and science to change our views of sexuality. Her podcast called You Are Not Broken which consistently ranks in the top 10 in the Apple “sexuality” category in multiple countries. It has been nominated for an AASECT award for three years running. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/you-are-not-broken/id1495710329 From that she has created online courses teaching women the fundamentals of their anatomy and physiology, discussing their limiting beliefs, and normalizing their normal female sexual function, to empower them to live their best love lives. Through the pursuit of a certification with the Life Coach School and the North American Menopause Society, she now combines her medical knowledge with mind-work to help women with surgical precision. An engaging and humorous storyteller, she is a nationally known speaker and is known for being approachable (like your big sister who is a doctor), making people comfortable with these often uncomfortable topics, and changing lives in the bedroom and out with her practical useful tips. Her book: “You Are Not Broken: Stop Should-ing All Over Your Sex Life” is out now on Amazon and Audible.
