“Discover Your Authentic Sexual Self” with kink positive therapist Galen Fous, Part Two of Two

Dance Past Sunset

In my last show I introduced Galen Fous, a 70 year old kink-positive therapist, author, educator and sex researcher who self-identifies as a heterosexual, dominant erotic sadist. In this show I continue my conversation with Galen, where he explains a bit more about his sexual identity, plus we talk about how to have good, healthy sex in the second half of life. The show is best suited for adults interested in learning more about how to realize their sexually authentic selves.

Dance Past Sunset

In this show, part one of two, I speak with Galen Fous, a 70 year old kink-positive therapist, author, educator and sex researcher. We talk about his journey of reclaiming his own sexual power as a heterosexual, dominant erotic sadist, and in doing so finally feeling witnessed, seen, and loved. He developed a profound sense of trust and depth of intimacy he would have never experienced without some courageous personal honesty.

"Sacred Sex in the Second Half" with Wendy Cobina Demos

Dance Past Sunset

At 63 years old, I can feel my body changing, and that is affecting my sex life. Furthermore, my ideas about relationships are shifting. Is traditional marriage still the right model for men and women who want to have sex, or is there something else? What about living together 24 by seven by 365? Might there be another approach that is not quite so...suffocating?

Cannabis for Seniors, with artist, stoner, and hemp advocate Daniel Roberto Ortega

Dance Past Sunset

Cannabis for Seniors is an informational resource for all things hemp. Founder Daniel Ortego and I talk about hemp, its medical and euphoric effects, the variety of ways to use cannabis, how it is helping veterans and others with pain and trauma, plus some things to be careful of. The interview is chock full of useful information for anyone who has never tried cannabis, or for those who tried years ago but might want to try again.

Dance Past Sunset

Sophie Benge is an international journalist and consultant on beauty and wellness, with a focus on women. In this show, we talk about menopause, the cause, symptoms, treatment options and how women and men can have more and better sex in the second half of life. Considering I knew almost nothing about this subject, she gave me a real schooling. Sophie is hosting a retreat in England from Nov. 28 - Dec. 1, 2019 on Aging Gracefully for Women Over 40.

"Fall down seven times. Get up eight" with Attorney Ron Frappier

Dance Past Sunset

This next show is deeply personal, because I have the treasured opportunity to interview one of my oldest and dearest friends, a man who was literally given up for dead by the medical establishment, and yet who lived to tell a harrowing story of devastation, faith, hard work, and eventually, restoration.

"Death Rituals from Around the World" with Professional Photographer Klaus Bo, Part 2 of 2

Dance Past Sunset

In part one of my interview with Danish photographer Klaus Bo, we learned how he got started with his dead and alive project, chronicling death rituals from Greenland, Haiti, Madagascar, Ghana, India, Indonesia and Nepal. You can see pictures on DeadandAliveProject.com. In this second and final part of my interview with Klaus, we talk about food. That’s right! When the living come together, even for a funeral, food is often and important part of that ritual, even if it’s just coffee and cake.

"Death Rituals from Around the World" with Professional Photographer Klaus Bo, Part 1 of 2

Dance Past Sunset

My interview with talented photographer Klaus Bo Christenson from Copenhagen, Denmark. Klaus travels the world chronicling death rituals, and over the years has amassed the world’s largest collection of photographs, which you can see at his deadandliveproject.com website. Does Klaus have some stories to tell? You bet he does! In fact, I was so absorbed by tales of Haitian voodoo rituals, chicken caskets from Ghana, and Indonesian funeral feasts that I had to break this interview into two parts.

More Episodes

In part one of my last show, I introduced you to Dr. Beverly Nelson and her husband Michael Lee Bartlett, who are the producers and hosts of an eight-week, experiential interactive online program called “Moving Abroad: A Hero’s Journey.” As you may be able to tell from its title, the program uses the work of author and professor Joseph Campbell as a framework for helping people who are contemplating a move abroad, that is, people like me and my wife Leslie.

If you have yet to hear Part One, I recommend you listen to at least the first few minutes, where I talk a bit about Joe Campbell, and provide some context for what you are about to hear. Better yet…listen to all of Part One, because when you first meet Beverly and Michael, I think you’ll fall in love with them, as I have.

Beverly has a PhD in Psychology and a BA in Business. She has created and directed internationally recognized Healing Centers all around the world, including what has become the largest and most comprehensive holistic center in Mexico — the LifePath Center.

Michael is a fellow former IBMer and entrepreneur, having founded or co-founded successful ventures in high tech, education, real estate, video and film production. During the 1970's Michael practiced as a psychotherapist and founded Ashewood Primal Center, a vibrant therapeutic community in New York City and Woodstock New York.

Together Beverly and Michael help people find and follow their life’s passions, and that is why I am so pleased to be collaborating with them. I do make a commission on the sale of their "Moving Abroad: A Hero’s Journey" course, even though you won’t pay a penny extra for it. In fact — you’ll pay less — because at the end of this show, we make an offer, exclusive to Dance listeners, that you will want to know about.

I am also collaborating with them on a break-out class for discovering one’s life passions, and I can tell you first hand that the quality, beauty and efficacy of their coursework is second to none. I am proud to be associated with it.

In Part One, the three of us talked about how Michael and Beverly met, and the circumstances that led them to collaborate in picturesque San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Tragically, those circumstances included the untimely deaths of dear loved ones, but out of the ashes of their sadness a beautiful Phoenix has arisen, one wearing the radiant plumes of their own love affair and subsequent marriage, and now, the birth of “Moving Abroad: A Hero’s Journey.”

In this Part Two, we delve deeper into the program, and how it helps couples and individuals make a life transforming decision with greater clarity, confidence and much less stress. It’s all part of my “Move to Higher Ground” theme, which is for people like me who are seeking innovative, out of the box ways to live out our sunset years in a powerful, joyful way.

So please join me in Part Two of my two part interview with Dr. Beverly Nelson and Michael Lee Bartlett, and let’s learn how to make the rest of our lives, the best of our lives.
