Vagina Conspiracies [Luminescence Podcast] Feb 03, 2026

Show notes

The Luminescence Podcast, hosted by Schuyler Grant, powered by Commune.

A space for science-based, culturally curious, and politically fearless conversations illuminating women’s health.

Ever been turned on but dry as the Sahara? Vaginal lubrication doesn't always match desire, and in this episode, Schuyler Grant and her expert panel (Dr. Jolene Brighten, Dr. Marisa Snyder, and Rosie Acosta) explain what our culture – and our doctors – fail to teach us. We break down vaginal health, pH balance, and what is really going on in your body during arousal.

What you'll learn:

Arousal non-concordance (your wetness doesn't have to match your desire)
Vaginal pH and why estrogen is basically a farmer for your vagina
What really happens during arousal (spoiler: it takes longer than porn suggests)
Why every vagina needs estrogen (postpartum, perimenopause, menopause)
Vaginal health myths busted (Can tampons get lost? Are tight vaginas better?)
How to know when dryness, itching, or pain needs medical attention
Why vaginal health is connected to your overall wellbeing

Can you get pregnant during your period? (Depends.) Are all vaginas pink? (Absolutely not.) Should you be doing 50 Kegels a day? (Please stop.) You'll learn why the “tight vagina” myth is harmful, how semen affects vaginal pH, and why vaginal health changes throughout your life. It’s the vagina education you never got—science-backed, shame-free, and actually useful.

Cultivating Strength with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Jan 29, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of The Commune Podcast, Jeff welcomes back Dr. Gabrielle Lyon — physician, longevity expert, and author of The Forever Strong Playbook — to explore why skeletal muscle is the most overlooked organ in health and aging. They discuss the metabolic link between muscle and brain health, how to think about protein intake at any age, and why building strength safely over time matters more than just lifting heavier.

Dr. Lyon also makes a compelling case for mindset as a core pillar of physical transformation. She shares practical ways to build mental toughness alongside muscle, from small daily friction exercises to doing hard things with your family. Today's episode is a grounded, actionable conversation for anyone ready to take their health seriously.

Sex Between Your Ears [Luminescence Podcast] Jan 27, 2026

Show notes

The Luminescence Podcast, hosted by Schuyler Grant, powered by Commune.

A space for science-based, culturally curious, and politically fearless conversations illuminating women’s health.

Ever wonder why your sex drive vanishes, your brain turns to mush, or you want to rage-quit your entire life for no reason? Blame your hormones, or, more specifically, how estrogen and progesterone run your brain. In this episode, Schuyler Grant and her expert panel (Dr. Jolene Brighten, Dr. Marisa Snyder, and Rosie Acosta) break down why it can feel like your brain is actively betraying you, particularly in perimenopause.

What you'll learn:

Estrogen and progesterone are brain hormones (not just “lady parts” hormones)
The hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis explained in plain language
Why perimenopause brings brain fog, mood swings, anxiety, and vanishing libido
The menstrual cycle phases and how hormones shift throughout
What's happening to your serotonin, dopamine, and GABA levels
Why 80% of perimenopause symptoms happen in your brain
A simple breathing technique to calm your nervous system

Here's the thing: for decades, doctors thought women's hormones only affected reproduction. Turns out, estrogen and progesterone control your brain, bones, heart, metabolism, gut health, and basically everything. When they start declining in your mid-to-late thirties, your brain goes through a massive remodeling. No wonder you feel like you're losing your mind. This episode helps you understand what's actually happening and how to take back control.

The Absurdity of Modern Life with Reggie Watts Jan 22, 2026

Show notes

The Orgasm Gap [Luminescence Podcast] Jan 20, 2026

Show notes

The Luminescence Podcast, hosted by Schuyler Grant, powered by Commune.

A space for science-based, culturally curious, and politically fearless conversations illuminating women’s health.

The clitoral conspiracy is real. This episode explains why women orgasm way less than men in heterosexual relationships (just 65% compared to 95%) and what you can do about it. Schuyler Grant and her expert panel (Dr. Jolene Brighten, Dr. Marisa Snyder, and Rosie Acosta) get real about female anatomy, sexual pleasure, and the cultural myths keeping women from experiencing orgasm.

What you’ll learn:

Clitoral anatomy explained (your clitoris is way bigger than you think—seriously, Google it)
Why female orgasm rates are so low in heterosexual relationships
The difference between sexual arousal and sexual desire
Why penetration-focused sex isn’t creating orgasms for most women
How to improve intimacy and sexual satisfaction
Practical tools for better sex and closing the orgasm gap

Here’s a fun fact: the clitoris was discovered in 460 BCE, then men decided to just...forget about it for a few thousand years. Most medical textbooks still barely cover female sexual anatomy. This episode offers you some of the sex education you never got—science-based info about women’s sexual health, minus the shame, plus honest conversation about what sexual pleasure actually looks like.

Featured Guests:

Dr. Jolene Brighten – Naturopathic endocrinologist, author of Is This Normal? and Beyond the Pill

Dr. Mariza Snyder – Functional wellness expert, author of The Perimenopause Revolution

Rosie Acosta – Host of Radically Loved, yoga and meditation teacher

Small Steps Toward Sobriety with Amanda de Cadenet Jan 08, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of the Commune Podcast, Jeff Krasno sits down with Amanda de Cadenet for a candid conversation about sobriety, addiction, nervous system regulation, and what it actually takes to change deeply ingrained patterns.

Framed around the New Year and the cultural pull toward resolutions, the conversation explores alcohol as a socially accepted coping mechanism, its effects on sleep, metabolism, emotional regulation, and social inhibition, and why so many people continue to drink despite understanding the risks. Together, they examine addiction not as a failure of willpower, but as an attempt to soothe discomfort, create connection, and regulate the nervous system.

Moving beyond abstinence alone, the episode looks at community as medicine, the role of ritual and accountability, and why long term recovery requires rebuilding an entire internal structure. From twelve-step recovery and cognitive behavioral tools to prayer, service, and presence, the discussion emphasizes change made one day at a time rather than through sweeping transformation.

Pillars of Wellness with Jacob Laub Jan 01, 2026

Show notes

In this episode, Jeff is joined by Jacob Laub, co-founder and COO of Commune, for a practical, wide-ranging conversation about the easy and actionable wellness habits they use in daily life. Rather than big theories or rigid routines, they move through an extended lightning round of life hacks with humor, honesty, and a strong bias toward what’s realistic.

Along the way, they share unconventional sleep strategies, simple nutrition rules, ways to integrate movement into busy days, and small mindset shifts that support mental health and connection. The focus isn’t perfection or optimization, it’s building flexible habits that fit your day to day life and actually stick.

The Hidden Cost of Modern Footwear with Galahad Clark Dec 30, 2025

Show notes

In this episode of the Commune Podcast, Jeff sits down with Galahad Clark, founder and CEO of Vivobarefoot, to explore how modern life has quietly reshaped the human body.

Galahad shares how contemporary footwear design and our growing physical disconnection from natural environments have altered the way we walk, stand, and move through the world — often at the expense of long-term health. Drawing from evolutionary biology, indigenous wisdom, and personal experience, he makes the case for “rewilding” not just our feet, but our relationship to our bodies and the planet.

Rather than prescribing rigid rules, this conversation invites curiosity about movement, physical signals, and the small choices that shape our health.
