Could changing the rhythm of your breath offer the breakthrough you’ve been looking for?

This week, Andrew talks to psychologist and breathwork expert Dr. Richard Blake—known as The Breath Geek—about the profound impact that conscious breathing can have on mental and physical health.

Together, Andrew and Richard discuss:

• How breathwork can reduce anxiety and support emotional healing
• A simple breathing exercise you can try right now
• Why working with the body is essential for mental wellbeing
• Differences between how men and women experience somatic therapies

Dr. Richard Blake holds a PhD in Psychology and is a leading expert in breathwork and functional breathing. A former Men’s Health Magazine fitness model, he combines cutting-edge science with holistic practices to help clients achieve mental clarity, resilience, and deeper self-awareness.

Venus O’Hara plans to change the world, one orgasm at a time. She believes women are equally as sexual as men, and should have the time and space to embrace their multi-orgasmic potential.

Venus is a British orgasm activist, author and feminist based in Barcelona. She has a hugely popular YouTube channel on which she discusses the female orgasm and leading a healthy and authentic orgasmic lifestyle.

In this classic reissued episode, Venus and Andrew discuss many aspects of Venus’ journey, including her expertise in fetishism (which Venus sees as an intelligent, imaginative approach to sex, fascinating in its eroticisation of the non-sexual), and her career change from real estate sales to online businesswoman, writer and activist.
