• AI Relationships: When Therapy Meets the Algorithm
    Nov 12 2025

    Sam Altman says 2025 is the year people start using ChatGPT for their emotional lives — to process relationships, rehearse hard conversations, and even find comfort. So what happens when your clients start doing therapy with an algorithm?

    In this crossover episode of TwoX Labs x The Soft Science, Dr. Erika Miley breaks down: 🧠 What AI actually is (and isn’t) — and why it can sound empathetic without ever understanding you. 💬 How clients are turning to AI for emotional support — and what needs that really meets. ⚠️ Why therapists must start asking about AI use the same way we ask about coping skills. 🛑 What harm reduction looks like when AI becomes part of the therapy process. 🧩 How professional associations need to protect the field — before insurance companies decide AI can replace human care.

    This episode is for therapists, clients, and anyone trying to navigate the messy new frontier where care meets code.

  • Welcome to The Soft Science
    Oct 30 2025

    Where pleasure is data, shame gets dissected, and your executive dysfunction is just another reason to question everything you've been told.

    I'm Dr. Erika Miley—licensed therapist, clinical sexologist, professor, and your favorite neurodivergent bisexual MILF with a brain that won't shut up and a mouth that refuses to cooperate (ask any teacher I've ever had).

    This space is for:

    • The curious and the kinky
    • The overstimulated and the over it
    • Women over 35 who are done playing small

    We're talking about sex without purity politics, trauma without making it your whole identity, and desire without a single apology.

    Because here's what I know: So many of us are living in bodies that were never taught to rest, feel, or want. We're out here raising kids, running businesses, surviving late-stage capitalism, and trying to remember what turns us on besides iced coffee and morally grey book boyfriends.

    The Soft Science is where we unpack all of it—your mental health, your sexual health, and everything in between. No shame, no bullshit, just research-backed real talk for women who are ready to reclaim their pleasure.

    Previously known as Sex Talk with Erika Miley—now evolved, expanded, and even less filtered.

    Let's get into it. 💋
