This week's episode focuses on Body Positivity and how individuals can be effected by Body Dysmorphic Disorders and Eating Disorders. With almost 10 million Americans suffering from Body Dysmorphia and almost 30 million Americans suffering from some form of an Eating Disorder, it is time for an open and honest discussion about what so many silently struggle with on a daily basis. In an effort to address their own struggles with eating disorders, co-host RJ reflects on his years dealing with Bulimia Nervosa and the toll it took on his life and body. We encourage anyone who finds themselves in need of help to contact a professional at https://www.nationaleatingdisorders.org/help-support/contact-helpline We are only given one body in this life and it is mostly up to you on how it is treated. As the the aspiration of perfection continues to be more and more unattainable, many find themselves unable to see the beauty within. It is within this fallacy, this idea of 'perfection', that hinders us from seeing what so many others can, that we are meant to be whomever we want to be. Sometimes this acceptance is a long journey, rather than a short path, and many seem to struggle to reach this conclusion, but there is help out there. Never hesitate to discuss your feelings with those who are willing to listen or seek help from a professional when your apprehensions become dire. The only advice we can give is to stay positive and love yourself becomes sometimes the hardest critic is looking back at you in the mirror.

On this episode, Nikki and RJ will focus on the A in LGBTQIA+. Join them as they discuss asexuality and aromanticism, two orientations that are frequently dismissed and are only recently getting recognized as a valid part of the human sexuality experience. Nikki shares her personal experience as a sex coach who struggled with their lack of sexual attraction to others, her experiences with gatekeeping, and her journey to figuring out that it is okay to be asexual and aromantic in a sex-positive culture.
