Welcome to Episode 444 of the Sexology Podcast! Today, I'm excited to be joined by Lisa Schaefer VP of Marketing at Promescent, who speaks to me about the biggest trends reshaping sexual-health products and sex-tech innovation.

In the first half of the episode, I dive into three listener questions and unpack why fantasy is perfectly healthy, offer concrete scripts for sharing kinks without shame, and celebrate self-pleasure as a lifelong birth-right, while sprinkling in resources, exercises, and confidence-building tips you can try tonight.

Then, Lisa joins me to map out the fast-evolving landscape of pleasure products, from wearable vibrating rings that turn penis-owners into “hands-free” vibrators, to blood-flow-boosting arousal gels that help close the orgasm gap, to tech-driven “pleasure-mapping” apps and menopause-friendly solutions.

Welcome to Episode 443 of the Sexology Podcast! Today I'm excited to be joined by Epiphany Jordan who speaks to me about the essential role of nonsexual, nurturing touch in our lives and how it intersects with wellness, relationships, and even trauma recovery.

In this rich and deeply personal conversation, Epiphany shares her journey from studying sacred sexuality to creating structured touch experiences aimed at fostering connection and healing. We explore the cultural, religious, and psychological factors that shape how we experience touch, especially in societies where physical affection is often conflated with sexuality.

Epiphany Jordan, MPH, CPH, is on a mission to rebrand human touch. From 2013-2020, she provided platonic touch therapy in a ritualized setting with her business, the Austin-based Karuna Sessions. She is also the author of Somebody Hold Me: The Single Person's Guide to Nurturing Human Touch. Somebody Hold Me addresses the touch deficit singles face, and offers multiple solutions. She has appeared on several podcasts discussing human touch, and spoke about solving loneliness with human touch at Austin’s SXSW Interactive Festival in 2019. In 2023, she completed her Master of Public Health with a concentration in Social Marketing from the University of South Florida, and researched rebranding human touch as part of her program.

In this episode, you will hear:

· Why Touch Is A Mammalian And Biological Need

· How Nonsexual Touch Can Heal Emotional Wounds

· Cultural And Religious Impacts On How We View Touch

· The Problem With Conflating Touch And Sex

· The “Branding Problem” Of Physical Touch In Society
