Welcome to Your Life, and Welcome to Sex, Love & Money 💋
The Podcast for the woman who knows she’s meant for more, the woman who is done settling in love, intimacy and finances, and in who she allows herself to be.
This is your invitation to step into your next chapter, to own your woman, to embody your power and start living a life that feels truly meaningful and aligned.
No more settling for vanilla sex, no more choosing the almost good enough guy, no more staying in a career that doesn’t fulfil, no more looking at your bank balance and seeing only lack and limitation, no more sacrificing your dreams, and not giving a voice to your true desires, no more surface-level anything.
It’s our time for it all; all the pleasure, all the aliveness, all the fulfilment, all the abundance.
All of the Sex, Love & Money, that we all deserve.
Let’s Fucking Go.

A rare male voice in the herpes space, Christopher Pickering, breaks down erectile dysfunction, porn desensitisation, disclosure, and why his sex life got better post-diagnosis.
We cover:
A male blueprint for navigating herpes, ED, and dating with actual results
How to re-sensitize your brain + body so real sex feels good again
The numbers game of dating post-diagnosis (and why one “yes” changes everything)
Masculine leadership in disclosure (what women wish men would do)
Ethics of coaching: free vs paid help, and why “when you pay, you pay attention”
Diagnosis ≠ death sentence. Chris used herpes as leverage to fix ED, quit porn, build confidence, and make condoms work.
One win resets the nervous system. You only need a single successful disclosure to rewrite your dating beliefs.
Stigma is cultural. Bali/Europe ≠ North America. Education > fear.
If you don’t believe the shame, it can’t stick. Judgment only lands on what you secretly agree with.
Business & love mirror each other. Rejection is data. Keep going.
Time-stamped guide

21:42 Dating = sales: why “no” isn’t a verdict, it’s math
23:49 Building a herpes brand, handling haters (and a 6.6M-view clapback)
30:39 Family finding out on YouTube (and why he didn’t spiral)
45:13 Who has it “easier,” men or women? (truth: both grind, differently)
53:15 Sex now: less stress, more leadership, better orgasms
