What No One Taught Us About Masturbation
08/29/24 • 53 min
Hold onto your headphones folks! We’re back with an episode that blasts through the taboo topic of female masturbation like a wrecking ball.
Treen rolls out the red carpet for guest Lindsay Branham (environmental psychologist, author, and eco-doula) and for the illustrious Goddess of Masturbation, improvised by Ali Levin.
Together, they pry open the Pandora’s box of purity culture to explore why female self-pleasure got a bad rep - swapping both cringeworthy and enlightening tales. They dig deep into how Christian ideologies about our bodies did a number on our capacity to self-regulate, co-regulate and connect. This episode isn't just about finding your buttons and how to press them; it's a declaration for why rewiring our connection to ourselves – and consequently to each other and the earth – is important.
From reclaiming our erogenous zones to eco-eroticism, Treen and her pals paint a vivid picture: when you're out of touch (literally), you're cast from your own anchor. Religious dogma didn't just take the 'fun' out of 'fundamentalism'; it may have unplugged us from our humanity.
So tune in, drop those inhibitions like they're hot, and let's embark on this quest to reclaim all of ourselves.

Leaving Religion to Find God
In Episode 3 of the Naughty by Nature podcast, Treen and Michael Gungor, musician and host of The Liturgist Podcast, breach the taboo topic (in Christian circles) of ‘Deconstruction’.
Matched with John Itiola, a comedian who plays an overworked and underappreciated version of ‘God’, this trio divulges the challenges that come from questioning Christian constructs.
Non-Christians might wonder, why is it so hard to leave Evangelicalism? This episode addresses the plethora of fears and beliefs that come with saying goodbye to the Christian church. Treen and Michael discuss the unique hang ups in their deconstruction journeys, the power of mystical experiences and both the chaos and freedom that ensued.
They get real, raw, and giggle...a lot!

Divorce As Death
In this spirited episode of the Naughty By Nature podcast, Treen gets cozy with therapist, death doula and good friend Caroline Lee to explore the messy, beautiful, and taboo world of Christian divorce. They laugh, cry, and maybe even question their life choices, all while comparing divorce to the dying process.
Caroline opens up about getting hitched at the ripe age of nineteen, under the watchful eyes of purity culture and familial expectations, while Treen reflects on what commitment really requires. Together, they unveil the societal stigma surrounding divorce and how it can turn friendships into ghost towns.
With a dousing of humor from guest comedian Raven Daley as God, this episode challenges the myth that enduring unhappiness is somehow virtuous. Instead, they cheer on the glorious messiness of reclaiming your identity post-breakup.
So grab your favorite beverage and settle in for a heartfelt chat that’s equal parts hilarious and enlightening, proving that there’s life (and laughter) after love - and maybe even a little divine intervention along the way!
