  • Love as a Practice with Tula Bischof

    Love as a Practice with Tula Bischof
    5 Nov 2026
    What if love isn't something we feel, but something we practice? In this deeply intimate and intellectually expansive conversation, P is for Pleasure host Tiana Hercules sits down with Tula Bischof, a psychologist and decolonial thinker who is reimagining what mental health, emotional wellness, and human connection can look like when we center love, responsibility, and cultural knowledge. Tula's work challenges the Western psychological frameworks that have dominated our understanding of mental health and invites us to consider: What if the way we've been taught to understand ourselves is incomplete? Together, Tiana and Tula explore decolonial psychology, emotional honesty, living lovingly, and what it means to build a life guided not by productivity or symptom reduction, but by connection, freedom, and responsibility to ourselves, each other, and the world. This conversation asks us to reconsider everything we think we know about emotions, relationships, intimacy, self-awareness, and what it actually means to be well. In this episode, we explore: • Tula's journey from horses and family dynamics to becoming a psychologist • What decolonial psychology actually means and why it matters • Who gets to decide what's "normal," functional, or healthy • Why therapy language hasn't necessarily made us healthier • The difference between protecting your peace and avoiding intimacy • Radical honesty and emotional companionship • Why self-awareness isn't enough without responsibility • Love as a practice, not just a feeling • What Western psychology has lost by centering the individual • Pluriversal psychology and honoring multiple ways of knowing • Why pleasure can be a source of self-knowledge and liberation • African approaches to mental health, conflict resolution, and community care • What it means to live lovingly in a world that rewards disconnection Tula's work is grounded in the belief that we cannot separate a person's mental health from their environment, history, culture, and the systems they navigate daily. And that healing isn't just an individual journey. It's relational. It's communal. It's political. This episode will challenge you to ask bigger questions about the stories you've inherited, the emotions you've been taught to suppress, and the relationships you've been conditioned to abandon instead of repair. Because love isn't passive. Love is a practice. And it requires us to show up fully, messily, and honestly. If this conversation resonates with you, share it with someone who needs permission to feel more, connect more deeply, and live more lovingly.

  • Good Girls Have Vibrators Too! | Bev Munga, The Vibrating Lawyer

    28 Oct 2026
    Good Girls Have Vibrators Too! | Bev Munga, The Vibrating Lawyer | EP 8 Who said good girls don't have vibrators? And who decided pleasure was something women should whisper about? This week on P is for Pleasure, we're turning up the fun with Bev Munga, aka The Vibrating Lawyer, an attorney, pleasure entrepreneur, and the woman behind Gspot Kenya! We're talking sex toys, sexual curiosity, cultural taboos, and the wonderfully complicated relationship women have with their own pleasure. And yes, we brought out a few toys! Bev takes us through her sexy superhero origin story—from the legal world to the business of pleasure—and shares what her journey has taught her about women, sexuality, and the cultural attitudes that shape how we experience desire. Together, we're busting myths, answering questions you might be too shy to ask, and exploring why women's pleasure still makes so many people uncomfortable. In this episode, we're getting into: How Bev became The Vibrating Lawyer What Kenyan women are teaching us about pleasure and sexual curiosity The myths and misconceptions surrounding sex toys How to choose your first pleasure product Whether vibrators really affect sensitivity Sex toys, relationships, and why pleasure isn't a competition Breaking free from the expectations placed on so-called "good girls" Why curiosity, laughter, and playfulness belong in our intimate lives And because Bev is a lawyer, you know we had to put a few pleasure myths on trial!

  • I Want to Be Well-Rested, Well-Paid & Well-F*cked | P is for Pleasure

    I Want to Be Well-Rested, Well-Paid & Well-F*cked | P is for Pleasure
    23 Oct 2026
    I want to be a well-rested, well-paid, and well-f*cked woman. And honestly? I want the same for you. But being “well-f*cked” isn't simply about having great sex. For me, it's about becoming the kind of woman who knows herself well enough to recognize what she wants, values herself enough to believe she deserves it, and trusts herself enough to stop accepting what doesn't meet her needs. And that doesn't begin—or end—in the bedroom. In this solo episode of P is for Pleasure, I'm unpacking my Well-Rested, Well-Paid & Well-F*cked framework and the connections I see between pleasure, rest, money, confidence, self-advocacy, relationships and the way we move through the world. Because I've become increasingly convinced that these things aren't nearly as separate as we've been taught to believe. Being well-rested is about having a life that doesn't require your constant depletion. Being well-paid is about resources, agency and the ability to make choices. And being well-fucked? That's about sex, yes. But it's also about knowing your body, articulating your needs and desires, refusing to abandon yourself to keep someone else comfortable, and choosing relationships capable of meeting the woman you've become. The bedroom isn't necessarily where that transformation begins. Sometimes it's where you discover whether it's actually happened. This one is personal. It's a theory I'm still living, testing and becoming.

  • What Patriarchy Has Cost Us: Masculinity, Love & Intimacy with nsharâh

    What Patriarchy Has Cost Us: Masculinity, Love & Intimacy with nsharâh
    14 Oct 2026
    What happens to intimacy when men are taught that vulnerability is weakness? Patriarchy has shaped the way we understand masculinity, femininity, power, sex, and relationships. But what happens when the very expectations designed to make men feel powerful also make it difficult for them to be emotionally available, vulnerable, and deeply connected? On this episode of P is for Pleasure, Tiana Hercules sits down with nsharâh, a certified somatica intimacy coach, for an intimate conversation about masculinity, patriarchy, and the ways our cultural conditioning influences our capacity to experience love, pleasure, and connection. Together, we explore the broader question of what patriarchy has cost us—not only as women, but as men, partners, lovers, and human beings seeking meaningful intimacy. What does it mean to be emotionally safe with another person? How do we begin questioning the roles we've inherited? And what becomes possible when we allow ourselves to experience intimacy beyond performance, control, and rigid expectations of masculinity? This conversation is an invitation to examine what we've been taught about being men and women—and whether those lessons are actually helping us create the relationships we desire.

  • Your Body Belongs to You: Consent, Sexual Violence and Changing the Culture

    Your Body Belongs to You: Consent, Sexual Violence and Changing the Culture
    7 Oct 2026
    Your Body Belongs to You: Consent & Changing the Culture | P is for Pleasure Ep. 7 What would our culture look like if we treated bodily autonomy as something sacred? In this solo episode of P is for Pleasure, Tiana Hercules examines consent beyond the simple language of “yes” and “no”—and asks what it will actually take to build a culture in which people's boundaries are respected. Drawing from her perspective as an attorney, former criminal defense lawyer, mother raising both sons and a daughter, and a woman thinking deeply about sexual freedom, Tiana explores intoxication and consent, sexual choice without unlimited sexual access, accountability among men, the responsibility of institutions, and what we teach young people about their bodies and one another. Because choosing sex does not mean choosing every sexual act. Choosing one person does not mean choosing everyone. Being sexually liberated does not make someone less deserving of protection. And the freedom to say yes only means something when the freedom to say no is equally protected. This is a conversation about consent—but also about the culture we have inherited and the one we have the responsibility to create. Your body belongs to you. Always.

  • Sensual Movement & Returning to the Body: With Fabiana Rendon

    Sensual Movement & Returning to the Body: With Fabiana Rendon
    30 Sep 2026
    Maybe reconnecting with your body begins with movement. In this episode of P is for Pleasure, Tiana sits down with choreographer and movement artist Fabiana Rendon for a conversation about confidence, sensuality, expression, embodiment, and what it means to feel at home in your body again. Fabiana creates spaces for women to explore themselves through dance, and in Part One of our conversation, we talk about her journey into movement, what the body can express when words are not enough, and why so many women become disconnected from themselves. We explore the difference between sensuality and performance, what changes when a woman gives herself permission to take up space, and how movement can help us reconnect with parts of ourselves we may have silenced, judged, or forgotten. And this conversation doesn’t end in the chairs. In Part Two, once I’m fully healed from surgery, I’ll be stepping into the studio with Fabiana and taking one of her heels classes myself. Because P is for Pleasure was never intended to be only about discussing pleasure. We are here to practice it.

  • Divorce & Diagnosis, Still Sexy, Still Standing with Hillary 'HoneyB' Brown

    Divorce & Diagnosis, Still Sexy, Still Standing with Hillary 'HoneyB' Brown
    23 Sep 2026
    What happens when life changes the story you thought you were living? In this episode of P is for Pleasure, Tiana sits down with longtime friend Hillary ‘HoneyB’ Brown for an intimate, candid—and at times very funny—conversation about navigating enormous change while remaining unmistakably yourself. Hillary has spent nearly 20 years creating Beach Goddess retreats and experiences that uplift women, celebrate sisterhood, and encourage women to show up fully and unapologetically. But in this season, life has invited her to turn some of that care and attention inward. Divorce. A breast cancer diagnosis. A changing body. Love. Loss. Reinvention. And the question of who you become when the life you imagined begins to look very different. Together, Tiana and Hillary talk about friendship, relationships, self-love, pleasure, body image, starting over, and what it means to continue wanting more for yourself—even while moving through circumstances you never would have chosen. This isn't simply a conversation about surviving difficult things. It's about becoming. About allowing yourself to grieve what was while remaining curious about what could be. And about discovering that change doesn't have to make you smaller, quieter, or less yourself. In this conversation: • Navigating divorce and the end of a relationship • Receiving and processing a breast cancer diagnosis • Body changes, femininity and self-image • Friendship and the women who hold us through transition • Self-love and self-pleasure • Dating, desire and intimacy after major life changes • Nearly 20 years of creating Beach Goddess experiences for women • Starting over without losing yourself • Becoming the woman you want to be in this next chapter What has a season of unexpected change taught you about yourself?

  • Beyond the Headlines: JetSetting Jasmine on Motherhood, Womanhood & Living Authentically

    Beyond the Headlines: JetSetting Jasmine on Motherhood, Womanhood & Living Authentically
    16 Sep 2026
    Every woman has a story beyond the headlines. In Episode 3 of P is for Pleasure, I sit down with JetSetting Jasmine for a conversation that goes far beyond what people may expect. Long before she became one of the most recognizable voices in adult entertainment and sexual wellness, Jasmine was a woman learning how to embrace the fullness of who she is—mother, wife, entrepreneur, creator, and woman. We talk about raising children while building an unconventional business, navigating public perception, creating a marriage and family life outside of traditional expectations, and what it means to choose authenticity when the world is constantly trying to define you. What surprised me most about this conversation is how little we actually talked about the adult entertainment industry. Instead, we talked about womanhood. We talked about motherhood, identity, partnership, ambition, judgment, freedom, and the courage it takes to build a life that feels true to you—even when that life does not fit neatly inside other people’s expectations. This episode reveals the depth, tenderness, intelligence, humor, and range of a woman who is too often reduced to one part of her story. Because none of us should be defined by the headline people find easiest to understand. In this episode, we explore: • Motherhood while building an unconventional career • Raising children with honesty and intention • Marriage, partnership, and evolving together • Navigating judgment and public perception • Entrepreneurship and creating your own lane • The difference between authenticity and performance • Giving yourself permission to live beyond traditional expectations • What pleasure, freedom, and self-acceptance can actually look like If this conversation resonates with you, subscribe to P is for Pleasure, like the episode, and share it with a woman who deserves permission to live more fully as herself. And tell me in the comments: What part of yourself have you had to reclaim from other people’s expectations? P is for Pleasure is a space for intimate, honest conversations about women, sexuality, wellness, identity, relationships, liberation, and the lives we create when we begin choosing ourselves.
