Key Points:Introductions and backgroundMarc Zen introduces himself as a PhD candidate at Curtin University researching explicit media literacy education, particularly focusing on parent perspectives. He discusses his personal experiences with education growing up and how that motivated his research interests.Defining "explicit media literacy" Marc explains why he uses the broader term "explicit media literacy" rather than just focusing on . He notes that parents were more concerned about the influence of media on their children's future relationships than just the content of itself.Parent perspectives on media influenceThe parents Marc interviewed expressed a range of views, but were generally most concerned about how the media their children consume could negatively impact their future relationships and ability to have healthy, respectful intimacy. Some saw potential benefits in using media to start conversations.Initiating conversations with children Many parents struggled with how to initiate conversations with their children about and relationships, often resorting to awkward tactics like having the conversation in the car. Marc and Cam discuss strategies for parents to create a safe, open environment for these discussions.Differences in parent and gender perspectives Marc observed differences in how mothers and fathers approached the topic, with fathers more likely to discuss directly and share their own experiences, while mothers were more concerned about media messages promoting unhealthy relationship dynamics.Framing education in schools Marc discusses the debate around taking a "critical" approach versus a more "neutral" approach to teaching explicit media literacy in schools. He believes the neutral approach focused on building practical skills is more effective, though the critical approach is better than nothing.Concluding thoughtsMarc emphasizes the importance of reframing adolescence as a time of opportunity to build valuable life skills, rather than just a period of risk and vulnerability. He advocates for evidence-based, shame-free education that provides young people with practical tools.Relevant linksWebsite: www.marczen.com.au.Instagram: marc_zen_
There’s a surprising amount of anti-masturbation content on social media, much of it suggesting that masturbation is bad for your health. In today’s show, we’re going to delve into whether abstaining from masturbation actually boosts testosterone, whether you can really become “addicted” to masturbating, what science says about the purported health benefits of semen retention, and more.
In this episode, we’re revisiting a conversation with Dr. Eric Sprankle, which originally aired back in episode 275. Dr. Sprankle is an Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology and the co-director of the Sexuality Studies program at Minnesota State University, Mankato. He’s also a licensed clinical psychologist and AASECT-certified sex therapist, as well as author of the book, DIY: The Wonderfully Weird History and Science of Masturbation.
Some of the specific topics we explore include:
Why is the concept of semen retention increasingly popular?
Are there any health benefits to abstaining from ejaculation?
Is an orgasm obtained from self-pleasure really any different from an orgasm obtained through partnered sex?
Can women become “addicted” to their vibrators?
Is there an objective standard for what constitutes “too much” masturbation?
You can check out Eric’s website to learn more about his work.

Please note: This episode has been updated to reflect a minor edit made after the initial relase. On this episode of the Natasha Helfer Podcast, one of Natasha's providers, Sara Rands, ACMHC, joins to discuss her journey with a chronic illness and how that affects intimacy. She’s Master Certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a brain-based therapy that clears stuck emotional patterns without the need to relive painful stories. Her approach blends structure and soul: existential therapy, mindfulness, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), and current training in the NARM model for complex trauma. Sara works especially well with gifted, neurodiverse, and highly sensitive clients—analytical minds, deep thinkers, and those who’ve always moved through life a little differently. She brings lived wisdom from cancer survivorship, spiritual transitions, and parenting spectrum kids. With a background in both computer science and English, she offers a calm, curious, and focused presence and a rare ability to hold emotional complexity without simplifying it.

I had known Sam for several years, back when he was dating Drea and successfully (and bravely) navigating cancer. I'd instantly had an affinity for this brother from another mother, he was so willing to do his work and give his deepest self to humanity. I had never met Michelle, this was her first podcast. I wasn't sure if it would be awkward. Nope! She is a pure ray of sunshine and grounded radiance. We hit it off instantly and I now have a new goddess sister! The conversation was profound about the magical results possible when we are committed to doing our inner work before meeting our life partner. The synchronicities that the Universe orchestrated were breathtaking. Be sure to watch them answer my unique questions in After the Show on Patreon. Allow your heart to melt into conscious soul shaking union with your beloved or beloved to be, as you watch the two of them dance. They were kind to include me, but I just wanted to happy-cry and watch the two of them unites. I wanted to bask in the frequency of their love.
