SPFPP 320: The Other Side of Healing

I was supposed to be in Sydney right now while a pre-recorded podcast episode automatically uploaded, but due to some necessary circumstances, I couldn't make that trip because my body told me some very important information that needed action taken immediately.

This episode is my last bit of personal sharing on the podcasts, and I hope the story I share inspires you to get to the other side of your healing.

I had what felt like a herpes scare again, only with a suspicious nodule on my testicles. (I got examined to learn they're not cancerous) During the waiting period I chose to reflect on my life by asking "What the fuck am I doing?", this will be a meditation on the Presence Practice recording session I do next.

Here I talk about my intentions and 2 priorities - Courtney Jr and SPFPP and how that looks as I transition into running SPFPP full time taking that leap of faith. I believe for so long, I've been demonstrating healING, but not the other side of that because of a lack of intentionality. This recent health scare gave me that. I always say: Life is about what happens through you, not to you, and the last few weeks I'm sure ya'll saw me sporadically posting and talking about conferences, surveys, events, donations, website updates like a maniac, but it all came together. I just decided to use that energy of looking up things or being stuck and afraid for what I realized means the most to me. That means Courtney Jr. (Nobody's pregnant) and SPFPP (which I really need to ONLY be doing for my work).

Also, join us December 20th at 1pm eastern time for a panel discussion about play parties with HSV. Safe Slut is looking to facilitate an event that is centered around stigma free play. So if you're in the lifestyle, join that podcast episode (Free for SPFPP members at $10 tier or more, but donations required for non-members) and you can be in the Q&A.
