PATTY SHOP PODCAST – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In recent years we have seen a spike in the number of women proudly birthing baby’s out of wedlock. 

In this episode we explore the implications, stereotypes, challenges, and societal perceptions of “baby momma culture”

Attraction is the sense of closeness, interest, or desire you feel toward someone. 

Although we often think of attraction in the physical sense, there's far more to the realm of attraction than meets the eye. In fact, the most common types of attraction that humans experience can be broken down into five general categories: 

sexual, romantic, physical, emotional, and aesthetic.

Join us as we explore and share with you .

Although kinks and fetishes are becoming more mainstream, they can still feel taboo. Secretly scouring the internet for a list of kinks to try with your partner can feel subversive—and hot.

For the uninitiated, learning about kinks and fetishes may feel intimidating. First things first, understand what is a kink and what is a fetish?

A kink is defined as a sexual activity that falls outside of sex that society traditionally considers "acceptable." That can include everything from role-playing to bondage to whips.

A fetish technically refers to an attraction to an inanimate object, although this includes body parts, such as feet (like a foot fetish). So a fetish is a type of kink.

No matter what you're into, kink is about consent, communication, and compromise. Before trying any new sex act, obtaining enthusiastic, continuous consent from all parties involved is a must.

Your kinks may not perfectly align with your partner’s, and that’s okay. “Just because you want it doesn’t mean that someone has to do it,”

As you explore, what you're okay with and what you're not will likely change, so it's important to keep a running dialogue about your limit.\

The term “bisexual” is used to describe a person who experiences emotional, romantic and/or sexual attractions to, or engages in romantic or sexual relationships with, more than one sex or gender. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported in a 2016 publication that 1.3 percent of women and 1.9 percent of men said they were “homosexual, gay, or lesbian,” and that 5.5 percent of women and 2 percent of men said they were bisexual. These findings indicate that bisexual people may comprise the largest single group in the LGB community for both women and men. Nevertheless, many believe that bisexuality does not really exist, and bisexual people suffer bi-invisibility or erasure and bi-negativity from both the lesbian and gay community and the heterosexual community, which may explain evidence suggesting higher rates of health disparities bisexuals experience compared to either. 

Special thanks to our guest this week Kennedy for stopping by you were indeed aa breathe of fresh air.

Life is never easy – it can be a constant struggle, with extreme lows and incredible highs. Life will humble you, and it will attempt to break you down. Sometimes in life, we need quotes about strength to remind us to remain strong through hard times.

Unfortunately, hard times can come in many forms in life. There is no doubt that the current global crisis has exasperated many of life’s challenges; they can vary from relationship difficulties, losing a loved one, illness, financial hardship, job loss, sporting disappointments, isolation, fear and anxiety to name a few.

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

Special thanks Lance, Shema, Fostia, Sage, Toussaint and my co host Keem.

Sometimes, you have to look back in order to understand the things that lie ahead.

2021 has definitely been a taxing year, it has challenged or mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.

This week we sat down to reflect on the year that was. Despite the dark moments many great memories and life lessons were attained.

This for sure was worth being grateful for and celebrated. As we catapult into a new year, one with endless possibilities. Let us step outside of our comfort zones, If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.

Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step.

Begin somewhere. You cannot build a reputation on what you intend to do.I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

We wish you all well of the coming year.

MERRY CHRISTMAS & A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR !!

Toxic relationships with parents affect the mental health and general welfare of children.

The difference between poor parenting and toxic parenting is only a matter of degree.

Lacking insight, maturity, or compassion, toxic parents may cause mental and physical agony, trauma, and lasting mental problems for their children.

We need to check such dysfunctional parenting patterns to foster a healthy relationship with children and gift them a happy childhood.

In a culture where hyper-independency is expected and co-dependency is discouraged, the line between “asking too much” and “expecting too little” can become blurred.

You’ve found yourself questioning if you were asking too much of your partners, or if your expectations were perfectly reasonable, more than once. 

Many of you have been labelled as a door mat, a pushover, anxiously-attached, and co-dependent,You’ve often found myself confused regarding what I have the right to ask for in a relationship.

 You’ve been left wondering if you should just fulfill the need on your own — is that what I’m supposed to do? — or if asking for more would be standing up for myself and an act of self-respect.

Dating is confusing, exciting, difficult, and not black and white; there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to love. Every individual is unique, and every relationship is unique.

Special thanks to our guests this week Liana and Bianca for stopping by.

“Mental health” refers to how people think, feel and act as they face life’s situations. Our mental health affects how we handle stress, relate to one another and make decisions. And mental health influences the way individuals look at themselves, their lives and others in their lives. Like physical health, mental health is important at every stage of life.

All aspects of our lives are affected by our mental health, and protecting our children’s mental health is a natural part of our parental obligation. Caring for our children emotionally as well as physically is critical to their daily lives and their independence.

On this episode I have the privilege to be joined by Miss ALICIA EDWARDS who will share the importance of fostering good mental health.

She has been a mental health advocate and a representative of Jamaica Mental Health Advocacy Network for two years now. She first got into mental health when my big brother died by suicide and that lead me to having my own mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.

Let's have a chat !!!
