Pleasure is not a luxury. It’s part of health care.
What if pleasure wasn’t mysterious, shameful, or something women were expected to “figure out on their own”?
In this episode of You Are Not Broken, Dr. Kelly Casperson is joined by Lara Pack to talk about the launch of their new vibrator, Explorer—and more importantly, the science, safety, and education behind it.
It’s a grounded, evidence-based conversation about female arousal, blood flow, anatomy, consent, and why most women were never taught how their bodies actually work. Kelly and Lara walk listeners through why Explorer was designed the way it was, what makes a vibrator safe (and unsafe), and how pleasure tools can support—not replace—intimacy, connection, and sexual health.
They also tackle common myths around vibrators, including fears about dependency, partner insecurity, and “doing it wrong,” while reframing pleasure as a learnable, normal, and empowering part of healthcare.
If you’ve ever felt confused, embarrassed, or under-educated about pleasure—or wondered how to talk about it with a partner—this episode is for you.
