Max is the filmmaker behind Touch Kink, a documentary exploring the world of BDSM and kink, and he joins Avik to discuss the importance of open communication, trust, and breaking down the stigma around kink practices. Together, they explore how kink can enhance intimacy, foster stronger relationships, and provide a framework for consent and negotiation, which applies not just in the bedroom but across all types of relationships.
About the Guest:
Todd Max Carey is a world traveler, having lived in 137 countries, and an unapologetic advocate for open dialogue on sexuality. As the director of Touch Kink, Max sheds light on the core values of BDSM—consent, trust, and communication—challenging traditional notions of intimacy. Through his global experiences and work as a filmmaker, Max has become a voice for sexual wellness, promoting acceptance, and removing shame from sexual exploration.
Key Takeaways:
Open Communication: Honest discussions about sexual desires are crucial for intimacy and relationship success, both in the kink and "vanilla" worlds.
The Importance of Consent: Consent is foundational in kink, involving clear, enthusiastic agreement and establishing boundaries that enhance trust and pleasure in relationships.
Breaking Stigmas Around Kink: Kink practices aren't about deviance—they emphasize trust, connection, and mutual respect. The kink community often has a more advanced approach to communication than traditional sexual dynamics.
Cultural Perspective on Sexuality: Max shares how his travels to 137 countries have shaped his understanding of diverse sexual norms, and how cultures vary widely in their approaches to intimacy and relationships.
Self-Exploration and Wellness: Max encourages listeners to explore their desires without shame, reminding them that sexual wellness begins with self-awareness and open dialogue.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of sexual wellness and embracing a more open, communicative approach to intimacy.

Send us Fan MailIn this transformative episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty dives deep into the concept of inner saboteurs with energy healer and intuitive coach Denise Miceli. They discuss the various ways these internal barriers, especially the "judge," prevent us from accessing our true wisdom and achieving personal growth. Denise shares her personal journey of overcoming societal expectations and how she now helps others, particularly women in midlife, realign their lives through neuroscience-based strategies and positive intelligence. Listeners will learn how to identify and confront these saboteurs, allowing them to break free from self-doubt and live more authentically.
About the Guest:
Denise Miceli is the founder of Rock Your Blocks, an organization dedicated to helping individuals realign their external world with their internal desires. With over 25 years of experience in mental health, leadership, and personal growth, Denise has empowered countless people to overcome their inner barriers and unlock their full potential. Her program, Elevate 40+, focuses on guiding women through midlife transitions, but her work also resonates with men and younger women. Using neuroscience-based strategies and positive intelligence, Denise teaches powerful methods for personal transformation.
Key Takeaways:
Understanding Inner Saboteurs:
Saboteurs like the "judge" can manifest as self-doubt, anxiety, and frustration. These negative thought patterns often surface during times of transition and challenge, preventing us from embracing change and living authentically.
Identifying the 'Judge':
The 'judge' is one of the most common saboteurs, causing individuals to overly criticize themselves, their circumstances, and others. This leads to unhappiness and a constant postponement of fulfillment, with thoughts like "I'll be happy when..."
Breaking Free from Self-Judgment:
By becoming aware of these sabotaging thoughts, particularly when experiencing negative emotions, individuals can quickly spot and interrupt the judge’s influence. Awareness is key to overcoming these mental barriers and cultivating a more positive mindset.
The Power of Self-Trust and Intuition:
Denise emphasizes the importance of trusting your intuition and stepping out of your comfort zone. By realigning your internal desires with your external reality, you can reshape your life in ways that feel authentic and meaningful.
The Role of Midlife Transitions:
Midlife often brings significant changes, and it’s normal to question past choices and feel the need for a new direction. Denise encourages embracing this process of self-discovery and using it as an opportunity for growth rather than a source of anxiety.
This episode offers valuable insights into how listeners can overcome mental blocks and unleash their full potential at any stage of life.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty dives deep into the neurological basis of negative thought patterns and how we can effectively rewire our brains for a more positive mindset. Joining the discussion is Mona Jones, a certified hypnotherapist and founder of Mojo Hypnosis. With over 13 years of experience, Mona shares insights on the power of the subconscious mind, the science behind neural rewiring, and practical techniques like hypnotherapy that can help break the cycle of anxiety and negativity.
About the Guest:
Mona Jones is a certified hypnotherapist and expert in the workings of the subconscious mind. With over a decade of experience in helping individuals overcome anxiety, Mona is the founder of Mojo Hypnosis, a practice dedicated to helping clients achieve peak performance and mental relief through hypnotherapy. Her expertise focuses on using the power of the mind to create lasting, positive change and relieve people from the grip of negative thought patterns and anxiety.
Key Takeaways:
The Power of Thought Patterns: Negative thoughts create deep neural pathways in the brain, making it difficult to break free from the cycle of anxiety and self-doubt.
Role of the Subconscious Mind: The subconscious operates like a computer's hard drive, running automatic programs. Hypnotherapy can help overwrite negative programs by accessing the subconscious mind.
Neural Rewiring: Techniques like hypnotherapy and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) are powerful tools for breaking habitual negative thought patterns, akin to placing roadblocks in an ant trail, forcing the brain to create new, more positive pathways.
Self-Awareness and Conscious Intervention: Recognizing negative thought patterns as they arise is crucial. By consciously choosing to "not engage" with negative thoughts, individuals can gradually train their brains toward positivity.
Practical Techniques for Rewiring: Hypnotherapy provides a direct path to the subconscious, allowing new, positive suggestions to replace the negative ones. Simple, daily affirmations like "We’re not doing that today" can also help reduce the power of negative thought spirals.
This episode offers a deep and practical dive into how hypnotherapy can aid in mental well-being and how we can harness the power of our thoughts to create lasting change in our lives.
