Feel like you've seen Nicole Lim somewhere before? It might be because you've caught an episode of Something Private, which started out in 2019 as a podcast on female sexual health and wellness, but now includes videos of the discussions and covers a variety of other topics.

"We felt that conversations around women had not yet been explored in depth. It felt natural to begin by talking about sexual health, which is typically shied away from in our society, but has become an acceptable topic of discussion in recent years," she explains. Something Private regularly hosts guests for discussions, and this has included a cosplayer sharing how she thrives in a highly sexualised environment, and women with disabilities revealing what they need to consider when it comes to love and sex.

"They have always been very supportive, and because of how open they've been with me, it makes it easy to broach difficult conversations with them. I was also always allowed to be myself, and I think that's what enabled me to be comfortable with the way I am." Thankfully, even though most of them are aware that they might be subjected to unwarranted or even nasty comments, they are still willing to "share their story as honestly as possible, because they know that the potential benefits outweigh the negativity that might come with it".
