Thank you for joining me again. Let's 17 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: talk about sensuality, sexuality and the roles they play in 18 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: our journeys to healing ourselves and experiencing the fullest lives 19 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: possible At a really, really incredible experience recently with who 20 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: is going to jump join the show in just a 21 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: bit as my special guest. But first, I really want 22 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: to tap into my original belief system about sexuality. I've 23 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: been doing so much processing and giving so much thought 24 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: to the way that I've experienced sexuality in my life 25 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: at different points of my life, and the way that 26 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: I experienced my own sensuality and the way in which 27 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: I allow myself to experience joy, pleasure, and intimacy in 28 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: all things and in all moments. So when I really 29 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: think about sexuality and how it was presented, if I 30 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: look back to my younger self, I realized how ill 31 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: equipped for the world I was. I learned mostly about 32 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: sex through school, which meant it was kind of sped 33 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: through by my teacher, and everybody in class was laughing 34 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: about it, or it felt weird or very embarrassing a 35 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: little shameful. I started experiencing and exploring my thoughts around 36 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: when I lost my virginity and what that experience felt 37 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: like to me, or when I was with new partners 38 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: what that meant to me or what I thought that 39 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: meant about me, and how often I didn't necessarily know 40 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: how to advocate for myself, or wasn't always getting my 41 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: needs met in a way that felt honoring to me. 42 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: And so that's one side of the coin, right, that's 43 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: us exploring our sexuality and what it meant to us 44 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: in and what it means to us now, or the 45 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: way we experience sex with ourselves or with a partner. 46 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: But then there's another side of the coin, where healing 47 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: of the womb for women really coming into that space, 48 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: where we are purging any trauma, any seeds that were 49 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: planted there, either ancestrally or through partners you may have 50 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: been with, or through maybe a little negligence and nonchalance 51 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: with ourselves. This whole other side of the coin of 52 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: the energy work and the excavation we can do, and 53 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: the self inquiry we can have about our precious parts 54 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: and about the sensuality that resides deep inside of us 55 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: that is always looking to feel more free. You know, 56 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: some conversations that are coming to the surface now that 57 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: are really exciting in the metaphysical and wellness world are 58 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: really anchored around the understanding of the divine masculine and 59 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: the divine feminine, and those two polarities exists inside each 60 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: of us. So every woman has a divine masculine and 61 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: a divine feminine, and every man does too, and we 62 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: are meant to experience both. But what I've come to 63 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: know through my own research, my own experiencing, and also 64 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: through powerful conversations with different psychologists and therapists. You know, 65 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: for so many women, we take on more of a 66 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: masculine energy because we needed to to survive. So what 67 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 1: that could look like is just having hyper vigilance over yourself, 68 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: for feeling like you had to be the only caretaker 69 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: of self, that you couldn't or didn't naturally want to 70 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: allow help from other people, that everything was your burden 71 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: to bear. A lot of that came up in us 72 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: because of false programming, both patriarchy, systemic racism, all of 73 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: the ways in which women have been impressed throughout human history, 74 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: and also just us believing that our worth was really 75 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: forged in our pain or how much pain we could tolerate, 76 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: or in our resilience. You know, so many women have 77 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: been placed without their permission, on a path of martyrdom 78 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: because we didn't know there was another way. So when 79 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: we are led to believe that we are only necessary 80 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: or powerful or important based on the role that we're playing, 81 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,799 Speaker 1: or how we show up for other people. It doesn't 82 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: allow us to feel really safe inside of our own bodies, 83 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: and it doesn't allow us to experience ourselves with the 84 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: softness and the ease that we deserve. I believe you know, 85 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: so many of us got a very limited view of 86 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: the power of our own ntuality and sexuality, the power 87 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: of orgasms in your life. So much of it was 88 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: based on ways in which women were presented on TV 89 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: and film, or ways women were presented in pornography that 90 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: wasn't actually natural or authentic to the human experience and 91 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: definitely didn't allow for women to feel empowered in an 92 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: authentic way inside of their own bodies, in a way 93 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: that was led with their own sovereignty, in a way 94 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: that was led with their own pleasure at the forefront, 95 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: or in a way that was led with just a 96 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: joy for their bodies. The ability to be intimate, even 97 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: in a non sexual way, The ability to just be 98 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: deeply present with ourselves and others where we are feeling 99 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: fully seen and fully heard and cared for. I think 100 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: this is especially true when it comes to women of color, 101 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: to the bipop community. These kind of thoughts, these kind 102 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: of feelings. They do affect really all women, but for 103 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: so many women that are of color. We've also only 104 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: seen the world and feminine sexuality or sensuality through the 105 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: veil or through the experience of whiteness, which is also 106 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: so different. Our bodies look different, right, Your private areas 107 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: look different. Um, the relationship dynamics look different. The way 108 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: you're received in the world looks different. What is considered 109 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: beautiful is different. There's a false sense of unworthiness that 110 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: we can have with our bodies based on influences that 111 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: have nothing to do with God and that have nothing 112 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: to do with us. And so I'm really intrigued by this, 113 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: and I've been doing quite a bit of deep dive 114 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: and study around this, and I've been really building some 115 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: beautiful relationships and friendships centering around some of this beautiful 116 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: work you can do to become free in this area 117 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: in this way. So in this moment now that I'm 118 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: on the other side of some of it, I had 119 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: a really really beautiful experience with the guests and bringing 120 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: on the show who is a master of sexology work, 121 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: among other things. I had a beautiful experience spending time 122 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: with her where she's based in Mexico and really learning 123 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: all of this work of self, really learning how to 124 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: tap into the deepest parts of your sensuality and how 125 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:42,239 Speaker 1: to really be free and uninhibited in every single way possible, 126 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 1: how to develop a relationship of seduction with the world, 127 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: how to develop a sense of knowingness and power within yourself, 128 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: and how you manifest in the world, and how to 129 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: really activate that be it aful womb energy that so 130 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: many of us thought was just to hold babies or 131 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: to allow our partners entry to really utilizing that space 132 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: for our highest good as one of our greatest, if 133 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: not the greatest tools of manifestation that we have in 134 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: our life. So in this moment, I would consider myself 135 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: a woman that is healed, that is whole, that is 136 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: wildly free in so many ways, that essential, that is sexy, 137 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: that is loving, that is compassionate, and that has the 138 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: ability to attract and manifest any and everything that I 139 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: desire at the deepest level. That is from my highest 140 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: good and the highest good of all concerned. So I'm 141 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: really excited today to get into the meat of this 142 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: show and introduce you to someone that is incredibly special 143 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: in my life, whose work I think is one of 144 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: the most trans formative things you could ever do with 145 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: your life as you're on this journey. So when I 146 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: started to notice that a lot of questions were coming 147 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: up for me or just investigation of thought was really 148 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: deepening and really coming forward, I was kind of energetically 149 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: and cosmically connecting the dots, you know. I'd have this 150 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: thought where I was really exploring, like what is my 151 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: past with being sensual, with being sexual? How do I 152 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: experience myself? How do I feel when I am observing 153 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: ways that I may have behaved or partners that I 154 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: may have been with previously. Um, And so I'm the 155 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: kind of person I know you guys get this already. Uh, 156 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: but I like to do the work. I don't like 157 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: to just say how yes, I'm doing the work and 158 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: the journey. You know. I I'm very research based, very much. 159 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: So I'm someone who really likes to blend the world 160 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: of spiritual but also really understanding rationally how my mind, 161 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: my heart, my body received information and receive healing. And 162 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: so trauma study has been something that's really important to 163 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: me and somatic experiencing. I think body work is so 164 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: so important to really dissolving trauma on your spiritual path 165 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 1: and in your journey. And so I one of my 166 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: amazing girlfriends, Um, She and I were speaking one day 167 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: and she leaned forward and she she said to me, 168 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: I have to tell you something that I've done, and 169 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: you know me, I leaned in quickly and I'm like, girl, 170 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 1: what tell me? What are we into now? What are 171 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: the things? And she told me Um that she actually 172 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: had found someone in Europe that did some really beautiful 173 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: work for her around clearing her womb and healing her womb. 174 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: And when we say specifically things like that, because we're 175 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: gonna be talking to quite a bit, you know, really 176 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: deep in your understanding of what your womb means to you. 177 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: I know, we've heard the word and we were taught 178 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: that the womb is, you know, what makes the baby, 179 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 1: what holds the baby, with births the baby. But your 180 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: womb is really that you know, beautiful sacred chakra. That's 181 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: the core of your manifestation. That is the place from 182 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: not WHI not just which life comes forth, but the 183 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: birth of your ideas, the experience of God, the deeper 184 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: experience of yourself. And so when she started telling me 185 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: some of the ways she had been exploring her womb. 186 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: I said, I gotta get me a piece of this, 187 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: and so I started researching and a very wonderful, dear 188 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: friend of mine named Dr Sheila. I told her what 189 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 1: my intention was, that I really wanted to do some 190 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: womb healing and I really wanted to do some work 191 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: in my sacred chakra and really experience a deeper level 192 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: of sensuality within myself. And so she and I booked 193 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: a trip to go to Mexico. We went to this amazing, 194 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: amazing little town called Silita, which I'll be talking about 195 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: a little more deeply on another episode. Um, but it 196 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: was an incredible experience. And while there I got to 197 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: meet the amazing woman that you will be hearing from today, 198 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: Simone farsh a goddess on Earth, an angel incarnate, a 199 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: woman who is dedicated to helping women embrace the fullness 200 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: of their bodies and their sensuality and their yoni's.

You 223 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: were in town visiting, and I said, hold up, you 224 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: have We've got to share this, We've got to talk 225 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: about this. So tell me first. You know, this is 226 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: a time that's never been and I'm really interested to 227 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: hear from healers that I have on the show. You know, 228 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: how have you been experiencing these last eight months from 229 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: that healing and spiritual practitioner point of view, and what 230 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: have you noticed as maybe some of the gifts of 231 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: this global pandemic in your life and in your work. 232 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: That is a great question. And for me, Um, these 233 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: last few months have really been dropping into my body, 234 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: and from that place, with all of the things that 235 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: I have studied, I feel like this time has been 236 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: a blessing. It's been a time to super deeply connect 237 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: with one's intention and one's purpose and one's connection with 238 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: self and also in relationships and intimacy. Yeah. So when 239 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: you say drop into your body for everyone listening, can 240 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: you expand on that? Yeah? So I work somatically, so 241 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: all the work that I do, Um, You know, like 242 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: sex therapists, you would sit down and talk with about 243 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: what's going on, and then you would get some information 244 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: and practices to go and do at home, and it's 245 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: all verbal, but what I do, it's all a real 246 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: time practice. So everything is in the body, and that's 247 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: just slowing down and paying attention to your breath, um, 248 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: your posture, your movement, the tone of your voice, um, 249 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: all of those things that's being in your body. And 250 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: I think I love that you explained it that way 251 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: so beautifully, because you know, a lot of times we 252 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: can do this work and we'll talk about this quite 253 00:16:55,120 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: a bit, but it stays as more of an intellectualization, 254 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: which means it stays in your head. So yeah, you 255 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,199 Speaker 1: might be able to recite it, you might even be 256 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: teaching it with others or sharing it, or you might 257 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: it might make perfect sense to you on a cerebral level, 258 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: but without the somatic experiencing UM, you're not able to embody, 259 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: which means that you don't become that right. You can 260 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 1: position yourself with that knowledge many different times, but you're 261 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: not really feeling living and breathing out of that healed nous, 262 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: out of that wholeness. And so for me, you know 263 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: what I think of that in terms of mindful practice. 264 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: You know, in real time, if I'm upset about something 265 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: literally in the second it's happening. I take a moment, 266 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: I close my eyes, I do some breathing, I check 267 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: in with my heart, and I might say, how are 268 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: you really feeling right now? And then something comes up 269 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: and then you're able to experience it and process it 270 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: in that moment, so you dissolve it, and I guess 271 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 1: another way to position that would be, I think visually. 272 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 1: So you won't end up in the shower later going 273 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: over that conversation and playing it out in a bunch 274 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: of different ways. That's kind of how it manifests in 275 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: even such a bigger way in your life. But yeah, 276 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: you won't be sitting there obsessing over things that happen, 277 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: or making judgments about yourself, or you know, agonizing about 278 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: some of the smaller details. Yeah, it's so true. And 279 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: we're truly embodied, and we have that muscle memory. We 280 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: get those very clear messages and there's not really any 281 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: other choice. When you're really connected, help us understand this 282 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: beautiful journey that you have been on. Um, what made 283 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 1: you start this work? Oh? That question? Yes, what brought 284 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,479 Speaker 1: me to right now? Um, I've been thinking about this 285 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 1: question and I feel like it's like all my life's 286 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 1: experiences has led me to right now and in this 287 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: dharma and this purpose that I am living in this moment, 288 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: and so lucky to be able to share. Um. You know, 289 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: I grew up in a small town and it was 290 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: a primarily white town. I'm I'm Persian, so um, and 291 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: I will say that like just being a child, you know, 292 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 1: I've always been pretty connected to my sensuality and my 293 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: body and just curiosity and the love for adventure. UM. 294 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: So growing up like that, being really free in my 295 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: mind and then coming to like I don't know, middle 296 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: school and high school and very quickly being shamed, um 297 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: for the way that I dressed, or just purely the 298 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: way that I looked like being Persian, having these halfway open, sleepy, 299 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: dreamy eyes. Um, it was like, Oh, she's sexy or 300 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: she's trying to get some attention, and oh wow. So 301 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: that turned into this kind of like disconnection with that 302 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: sensual power or that sensual feminine wisdom that I think 303 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: we you know, we all have UM in us and 304 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,959 Speaker 1: and it's such a pure and beautiful thing that we 305 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: all have, that we're all born with UM. But it's 306 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: society that that starts to shape us. And dim that light, 307 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: um that we all have. And so that's what happened 308 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 1: to me. You know, over time, I became a bit 309 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: disconnected and trying to fit the mold of what you know, 310 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: I thought I was supposed to be or disconnect from 311 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: my beauty or my pleasure. And from there, UM, you know, 312 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 1: I think I just was a little bit misaligned from 313 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: from where I was supposed to go. And and then 314 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: that like that UM etched into so many things, you know, 315 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: I etched into the kind of relationship that I wanted 316 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: to have. I was always like fantasizing about these movies 317 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: that we see and this like romantic idea of UM, 318 00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: a husband and a relationship, and I was seeking that. 319 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: But because I was UM, I was raised by a 320 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: single mom, I didn't have a great example of what 321 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: like healthy love was and what a relationship was. So 322 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: long story short kind of I UM. You know, I 323 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: had a few like failed relationships and then um, eventually 324 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: after having my son and that not working out with 325 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 1: his father because of lots of miscommunication and dishonesty and 326 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 1: like trying to be connected to my sensual power but 327 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,239 Speaker 1: not really fully aligned with it, I had to do 328 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: a lot of healing and soul searching after that, and 329 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 1: from that, that's when I went deep into the studies 330 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: of somatics, of yoga, of being in my body, of meditation, 331 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 1: working with women, and eventually that brought me to feeling 332 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: free and feeling back in my body, feeling empowered with 333 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 1: my sensuality. And from that place I it was able 334 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: to connect with like one of the most beautiful loves 335 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: of my life. And because I was in such a 336 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: place of deep healing, I was not I was not 337 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: willing to be anything other than myself, and so was 338 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: he and he was at this place too, in this 339 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: journey of his life. So we met each other authentically 340 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: and we said, we love each other deeply. We want 341 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: to experience love and being a relationship, but we don't 342 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: want to stop exploring ourselves. And so we had a beautiful, 343 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: open long distance relationship for about four years, and I 344 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: learned so much about healing the shame that I had 345 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: received all the years prior. I learned how to have UM, communication, vulnerability, authenticity, UM, 346 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: all of the things that were not taught growing up, 347 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: and how to have a healthy, long loving relationship. And yeah, 348 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: this made me feel so many things and it basically 349 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 1: put me on the path of continuing to study how 350 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: to share and how to teach women and men and 351 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: everyone to like a roadmap and how to connect with 352 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: your own desires and your authenticity so that you can 353 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: can create the life that is meant for you. Wow. Yeah, 354 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: I just want to say after this UM like relationship 355 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,959 Speaker 1: that I was because it was open, it was like 356 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: really a time for me to connect with my back, 357 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: with my sexuality. So I was able to you know, 358 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: date other men and still have a partner that I 359 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: shared all the things that were going on UM with 360 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: and feel super safe in that space. I was like, 361 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: my my partner UM supported me and being like really 362 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: in my body, really sexual, really passionate and being a lover. 363 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 1: So I got to practice like what it's like to 364 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: share that to myself with him and with friends, and 365 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 1: that spurred this desire to learn more and more about 366 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: UM my body, and I realized how much women don't 367 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: really know UM about their own body and their own 368 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: capacity for pleasure. Why do you think that women don't 369 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: know about their bodies and their capacity for pleasure? Well, 370 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: historically we're just not really we're not invited to learn 371 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: about our bodies. We like I've sat in really deep 372 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: thought about this recently, and it you know, the thing 373 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: that I want to know. I want to know who 374 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 1: the first man was who decided he was against women 375 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: and then talked all the rest of them into being 376 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: the same, and then decided to write history without women? 377 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 1: Like who did it? Where was the shift? This was 378 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: thousands of years ago? Because when we look back historically, 379 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: even when we think of women that were left out 380 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 1: of the Bible, like there's not any there are not 381 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: any real title characters in the Bible outside of perhaps Mary, 382 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,719 Speaker 1: you know, and it's interesting because that's that's our oldest history, 383 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 1: you know. But when you think about all of the 384 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: women that are left out of all of the books, right, 385 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 1: and you think about the history of men really using 386 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: women as just like receptacles, like just like you know, 387 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: like fluid dumpsters, like just like all right, you know, 388 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: I need to get what I need. But women have 389 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: always been trained two not even be able to say 390 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 1: the word vagina volva or pussy or anything or yoni. Right, 391 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: like you have this you can be a grown woman 392 00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: and still get the giggles about talking about your private hearts, 393 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: you know, talking about your genitalia, and it's like, that's 394 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: so interesting, and then that makes us feel like we 395 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: should be ashamed of ourselves or like there's something that 396 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: is silly about it or a little gross about it 397 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: or ugly about it. Right, And it's like when we 398 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: really sit and think about that, and I invite everyone 399 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: listening to spend some time and thought about this later. 400 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: But it's like, well, who taught me that? Who? When 401 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: did I pick that up? And when I kind of 402 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: searched my own memory banks, it wasn't, you know, a 403 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: particular person. It wasn't in my personal life. It wasn't 404 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 1: that someone told me that my body was wrong, But 405 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: it was in everything you see everywhere, right in every 406 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: movie when they're having sex for two minutes and then 407 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: she supposedly comes and he comes right, or every time 408 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 1: you know, people talk about yeah, I just fake it, 409 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 1: and then you're like, oh, so maybe like that's just 410 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 1: not in it for me. Maybe I can never orgas 411 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: them during sex, or maybe his pleasure is more important 412 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: and I'll focus on me later. Every time you've had 413 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: to act or you've embellished how your body felt right 414 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: because you may have seen porn and they're saying, well, 415 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: that's how they have sex when they have porn, So 416 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: let me just act that out, you know. And it's 417 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: like every porn we've ever seen is a woman where 418 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: no one is concerned about her pleasure, where you know, 419 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: her body is really just used as a means to 420 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 1: an end or objectified, or her sounds are un natural. 421 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: Nobody sounds like that, or her body movements are a natural, 422 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: or she's not making sure, you know, to get what 423 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: she needs, or they're not actually looking at each other 424 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: touching each other. Entire generations of people, because we don't 425 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: learn about this stuff at home, get all of their 426 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 1: understanding of what sex should be from movies and from porn, 427 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: you know, like like the every time someone has sex, 428 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 1: I love you, I remember think you were supposed to 429 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: say that, you know, like that that wasn't that, that 430 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 1: was just part of it. So it's just it's it's 431 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 1: so interesting when we really and again this is always 432 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 1: what I'm going to say here and everywhere, when we 433 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: step outside of ourselves to just be curious observers of 434 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,959 Speaker 1: our lives and not in judgment, we can look at 435 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: that really clearly and realize we've always been enough, it's 436 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 1: not us and it's okay to not know things about 437 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: our bodies and not know things that we like, but 438 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 1: we have the opportunity to learn. Yeah, that's so beautifully said, 439 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: and it's it's so true. We're so disconnected from down there, 440 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: and I hate even staying down there because that's what 441 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: so many women refer to. The sun don't shine there. 442 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, take some time and connect with that, 443 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: that intimate space that is so beautiful and is so diverse, 444 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean it so.

We really desensitize ourselves so much 487 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: of the time, and we we don't have a clear 488 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: understanding of what we actually want or desire, or we've 489 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: learned to only respond to what our partners likes and 490 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: wants are and this creates a huge disconnection in our 491 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: body and for long term pleasure and also just in 492 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: attracting what we want in our bigger purpose and life. 493 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: Um So, yeah, some of this this work for me 494 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: has been just like connecting with is my desire and 495 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: once I'm connected to that and my pleasure. Then everything 496 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: is effortless. Everything just unfolds effortlessly into my life. And 497 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: vulva mapping is actually mapping your vulva, so you're learning 498 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: the anatomy of your vulva. So many people called the 499 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: vulva the vagina. We've been taught, you know, our parents 500 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: don't even know. It's not actually called the vulva. I mean, 501 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: it's not actually called a vagina. It's called a volva. 502 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:28,239 Speaker 1: Volva is the outer parts, um, and the vagina is 503 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: the canal and in which we are penetrated or which 504 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: we have a baby through. So just reclaiming and naming 505 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: what our parts are so that we can be empowered 506 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: by by holding that space for each of our parts, 507 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: giving them identity, and then inviting pleasure and sensation to 508 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: each of those parts. Yeah, Simone and I actually did 509 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: that experience together, UM, and it was one It was 510 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: profound only beautiful. Um, it was an experience that was 511 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,959 Speaker 1: just truly indescribable, Like there's no point of reference for 512 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: me ever feeling that closely connected to my body before 513 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: um even down to like massaging my C section scar 514 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: and experiencing like an immense amount of ancestral healing from 515 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: that spot, you know, um, And there were parts of 516 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 1: that experience. I mean, first, let's just say I've never 517 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: done anything like that before, so I was absolutely I 518 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 1: felt I showed up for myself really powerfully and in 519 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,719 Speaker 1: a good way. Like I was ready for the experience. 520 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: So I wasn't all giggly and I wasn't all you know, 521 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: um silly about it. But I definitely felt more vulnerable 522 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: than I've ever felt. I've definitely felt more seen than 523 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: I've ever felt. But it was fascinating. It was fascinating, um. 524 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: And you can do like external and internal mapping in 525 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: that way, and just you know, we it's hardly talked 526 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: about in school, our anatomy, and when it is again, 527 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: it was presented to us most likely in the seventh grade, 528 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 1: unless you also took further courses maybe in high school 529 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: and college, and you kind of rushed through it because 530 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: everyone's giggling and everyone's like you or oh. That was 531 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,320 Speaker 1: my experience in the seventh grade at least. And so 532 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: you know, it was actually interesting as a woman in 533 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: her thirties to realize there was stuff. I didn't know 534 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: what everything was called, you know, I did think the 535 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: whole thing was called vagina, Like I didn't know that 536 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: that was just the birth canal, or even if I 537 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: had learned it, it wasn't in you know, my conscious 538 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: memory that I had access to. But it was so 539 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 1: fascinating And some of the things that you have talked 540 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: about and that you show women in this work that 541 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: you do, it's really the system of understanding of how 542 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,919 Speaker 1: our bodies even respond to pleasure and how much time 543 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 1: it actually takes. Like, no, thirty seconds of four play 544 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 1: is not enough. No, you you know, maybe touching me 545 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: in this way, that's not enough for me to actually 546 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: have that in body experience that I deserve to have 547 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: as a woman. Can you speak to that some of 548 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: the functions of how if if someone were to be 549 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: having sex with themselves or with a partner, what should 550 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: the flow of that actually look like and what physically 551 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 1: is happening to the body as these different stages are happening. Yes, 552 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: that's such a great thing to talk about and understand. 553 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: Um And yeah, with that, I just want to say, like, 554 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: what if we change that, you know, in the way 555 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 1: that we learn our sex at what if we were 556 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: able to teach our daughters and our sons how to 557 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: connect with their bodies intimately and with their heart space 558 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: rather than just witnessing it on porn or witnessing it 559 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: by like STDs. And it changes everything, changes our connection 560 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: to ourselfs, and it also changes the respect we have 561 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: with others when we connect with them and the way 562 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: we treat their bodies in the way we treat them 563 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: as human spirits in the world as well in the 564 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 1: way we're able to deepen our experience of intimacy connection. 565 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: We're all really here for. So yeah, so coming understanding 566 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: how to the anatomy works. It's so fascinating and it's 567 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: so important because you know, a female's body is not 568 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: actually fully ready for penetration until she is fully aroused, 569 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: which takes about twenty to forty minutes. And when you're 570 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 1: examining involva mapping your body, you understand the different parts 571 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: and you understand the the entire length and capacity of 572 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 1: the clitterest, which expands and actually erects itself and you 573 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: can feel that, like when I do mapping with women, 574 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: you get to feel what you're what your clitterest feels 575 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: like when it's erect and then you understand like, oh, now, 576 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: I'm ready for that kind of play, and now I'm 577 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: ready for penetration, and now my body is going to 578 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 1: secrete fluid so that things are going to feel yummy 579 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: and delicious and juicy instead of ever forcing something. And 580 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: then you can also share that with your partner so 581 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 1: they know, like men are not taught this either, Like 582 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: we're both in the same place of being disconnected from 583 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: our pleasure and our bodies. You know, it comes forward 584 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: from you when you say that is like, imagine how 585 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: many times, as women, you have been with a partner 586 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: and you thought something was wrong with you, or it 587 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 1: was you, or they may have said a comment to 588 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 1: you of like, oh, you're not really wet, or you know, 589 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: why does it hurt? And it's like, no one ever 590 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: told you that it might take up to forty five 591 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,200 Speaker 1: minutes for you for your body to really awaken so 592 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: that you can have this experience, because again, we've always 593 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: been the afterthought. We've always been there to serve and 594 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:49,359 Speaker 1: show up and facilitate someone else's pleasure, which is, you know, 595 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 1: one of the many ways women are have been tricked 596 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 1: throughout history into these martyrdom roles, you know, these roles 597 00:37:55,880 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 1: of jest I'm here to serve I can go without this, 598 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 1: you know, perceived strength and resilience. It's so interesting to 599 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,479 Speaker 1: see that interconnectedness. And you know, something that also really 600 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: comes forward for me is that I that I want 601 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: to be really honest with you guys and share UM 602 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: and actually feel a little motion in my chest right 603 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: now saying this so that lets me know I need 604 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: to say it. But I wanted to have Simone on 605 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: the show, and I wanted to be this open and 606 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: vulnerable with you in this way. We've never talked like 607 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,919 Speaker 1: this with each other before. Because after beginning this work 608 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: with Simone and now deep diving into more work and 609 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: curriculum and reading and experiencing and self pleasuring, I believe 610 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: with all of my soul that every woman deserves this, 611 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: that every woman deserves to feel like this and to 612 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 1: know themselves in this way. And when I really think 613 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,320 Speaker 1: about it, I am I am an extremely processed person. 614 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 1: I'm very very deeply processed. I've always been introspective and 615 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: at least seemingly wise since I was young, UM, and 616 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: I've embarked on a life path, especially the last ten 617 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: years of deep excavation. If you have heard of it, 618 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: I can guarantee you I've done it, um. I years 619 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: of therapy, years of you know, now being someone really 620 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 1: who has dedicated themselves to helping women heal trauma and 621 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: discover the deepest parts of themselves. And you know I'm 622 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: heavy deep in the mindfulness and meditation world. I can 623 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: say with complete certainty, your work will never be complete 624 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 1: until you do this. And I say that again. I 625 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: can't stress this enough. I am more processed than probably 626 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: of people that most people meet. I am heavily processed. 627 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm really constantly in hot pursuit of myself, always willing 628 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: to excavate and bel bear. And even in that, I 629 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: would have never reached the deepest depth of my healing 630 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: and been able to expand myself to the joy and 631 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: the abundance and the love that is my birthright without 632 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: doing this work. We have to nourish our wounds. We 633 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 1: have to tap into that divine, feminine power that we 634 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,879 Speaker 1: have been trained and forced to let go of. We 635 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: have to love our bodies with reckless, abandoned and we 636 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: must regularly experience the greatest pleasures possible. This work is 637 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:49,359 Speaker 1: the It's the work of the revolution. Mm hmmm, You're 638 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: gonna make me cry now. It's so true though, It's 639 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 1: so true. I mean my life has completely transformed and 640 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,720 Speaker 1: just aligned, you know, like I am in my body, 641 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: I am in my my feminine wisdom that I'm drawing 642 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: on in myself and from from my ancestors, and being 643 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: able to share in a way that is that is 644 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: true and connected. And when you're in that space, anything 645 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: is possible. It's such amazing work. Yeah. Yeah, and it's pleasure, 646 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 1: you know, Like we need to be in pleasure. Everything 647 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,919 Speaker 1: should be pleasurable. Like we should not demonize ourselves for 648 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 1: thinking that we want to be in pleasure and that.

Um, everything is felt with more intensity. So 675 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 1: tell me, Simone. I mean, we've been we've been talking 676 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 1: about some of the juiciest parts of this, But what 677 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,879 Speaker 1: are some of the misconceptions about the work that you do. 678 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 1: Because I know, I know, y'all, I know, for some people, 679 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 1: especially to sit depending on the belief systems you were 680 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 1: raised in your family structures, you know, there's a red 681 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,319 Speaker 1: flag going up. Yeah, definitely. I mean this this goes 682 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: back to, you know, my story about when I was 683 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 1: younger and just being shamed for um, feeling sensual or 684 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 1: in my body, And there is so much tabooist to 685 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 1: to what this is and even saying the word sex 686 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 1: like sex coach, what does that mean? Like, do you 687 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: have sex with people? Right? Like, no, don't have sex 688 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: with people. Um, it's not sex work, but it is 689 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: intimate work. You know, you're creating a space where you're intimate, 690 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: and um, it needs to be intimate in order to 691 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: let those those veils unfold and for shame to disappear, 692 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 1: we need to unearth why it is that we feel 693 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: shame about those words in the first place. Yeah, how 694 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 1: could someone get started on this journey? Well, you know, 695 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 1: just connecting with yourself, connecting with your body, taking time 696 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 1: every night to nurture and create a self pleasure practice. 697 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: Everything that I teach and that I do with my 698 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: clients is stuff that you can do on your own. 699 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's meant to empower you and really just 700 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 1: creating a connection to having a UM communication with your body. 701 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 1: Your body has messages and they're very clear when you 702 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 1: take the time to get to know it. So for 703 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: someone listening that asn't self pleasure and feels really intimidated 704 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 1: by by it or maybe even traumatized around it and triggered, 705 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 1: how would someone start or super charge they're self pleasure practice? Yeah, 706 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: well that's the first step is just thinking about do 707 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 1: you have one UM? If you did have one, what 708 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 1: would it look like? What are you doing right now? 709 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: What are the habitual patterns that you've done for so long? 710 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 1: Like when did they start? When you first started masturbating? 711 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 1: So many of us have these patterns. It's like one 712 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: single position super quick, like get it done with and um, 713 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,760 Speaker 1: how can we change that? How can we invite more pleasure? 714 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 1: How can you invite different movements, breath, sound, all of 715 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: that stuff, touch, dance, all the fun things into your 716 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 1: self pleasure practice? I think to like such a big, 717 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 1: big thing that no one talks about because especially women, 718 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,359 Speaker 1: you're not necessarily comparing notes about mass servation or you know, 719 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: self expression in that way. It's slowing down, you know, 720 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,839 Speaker 1: I think because so often and We've talked about this 721 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 1: so often. You're so ashamed with your body that you 722 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 1: think if you do self pleasure, you have to rush 723 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,720 Speaker 1: through it because you're doing it secretly with a blanket 724 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: over your head. You're just trying to get to it, 725 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: or you're hiding it from your partner. You don't want 726 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 1: people to hear. And so most people learn to self 727 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 1: pleasure by really truncating and restricting themselves. So you are 728 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 1: being completely silent, you're being very hyper vigilant, your faces 729 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 1: probably locked, like your jaws probably pretty tight. And then 730 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 1: you are having an experience where it's almost as if 731 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 1: your genital area is not a part of the rest 732 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,839 Speaker 1: of your life. You know, it's like this little thing 733 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,320 Speaker 1: that exists, but you don't actually really know it. You 734 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 1: just pop it out when you think you need to, 735 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,760 Speaker 1: and then you tuck it away again, and you don't 736 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: invited into the rest of your life. You don't you 737 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 1: don't have your yoni, presn't in other parts of your life. 738 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: And slowing down is a great first way to start that. 739 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,959 Speaker 1: You know, if you self pleasure saying, instead of trying 740 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,879 Speaker 1: to hurry and get to it in ten minutes, I'm 741 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 1: going to take forty five minutes, right, Like, I'm going 742 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 1: to put on a playlist that feels really good. I'm 743 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,359 Speaker 1: gonna dimn the lights, maybe light a few candles. I'm 744 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 1: going to give myself the romance and intimacy that I 745 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 1: long for and make it a special space, a special container, 746 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 1: and really setting the intention of you know, I I'm 747 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 1: doing this so that I can know myself better, so 748 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 1: that I can heal myself, so that I can heal 749 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 1: through joy and pleasure. Yeah. One of the things I 750 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:50,720 Speaker 1: always say is, you know, if you're just practicing touching yourself, 751 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,359 Speaker 1: so you can start with your you know, between your 752 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 1: wrist and your elbow, and touch yourself in a way 753 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 1: that feels pleasurable, touch yourself as if your hand is 754 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:06,359 Speaker 1: that of a lover's and then take a moment and 755 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 1: slow that touchdown by fift and just notice, wow, the difference. Yeah, 756 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 1: because self pleasure it doesn't just mean getting to business. No, 757 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:24,040 Speaker 1: there's such a wide, wide, wide wide road of other things. 758 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:28,239 Speaker 1: Even hugging yourself as self pleasure, right, that's that's such 759 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:32,960 Speaker 1: a beautiful intimacy. Yeah, And there's such a misconception about orgasms. 760 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 1: You know, we think of what orgasms as one thing, 761 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 1: and often a reference to what we've seen in movies 762 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 1: being this explosive. Oh my gosh, I don't know, you know, Um, 763 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 1: but it's not. There's so many versions of an orgasm. 764 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: So so many women think they're broken because they think 765 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 1: that they've never had an orgasm. And well that's like 766 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 1: I feel like a whole another episode. But um, but yeah, 767 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:56,640 Speaker 1: just like getting to know your body and how she 768 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,760 Speaker 1: likes to be touched and you know, moved and held 769 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:01,880 Speaker 1: in and then exploring with all the different ways that 770 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: you haven't touched her before and see how that feels. Yeah. 771 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 1: How many kinds of orgasms are there? I mean I 772 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 1: think there's infinite amount, but there's like full body orgasms. 773 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 1: There's like like what like could you orgasm without Yes, 774 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 1: you can orgasm without even being touched. Some people, some 775 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 1: personas are so sensitive that they can just you know, 776 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,800 Speaker 1: by the by the interactions that they're having or the sites. 777 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 1: Um can orgasm without touch. There are purely vaginal orgasms. 778 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 1: There's only clitoral orgasms. There are's mouth orgasms. There's so 779 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:46,319 Speaker 1: many mouth orgasms. Yeah. Interesting, okurrent, So how do you think, um, now, 780 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, with all the work that you've done and 781 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,839 Speaker 1: all the different kinds of people that you've seen are 782 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 1: the ways in which you've experienced this healing. Why is 783 00:49:56,560 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 1: this work so important especially for women of color m 784 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 1: HM as a tool for healing. I think this is 785 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 1: so important for all women and especially for women of color, 786 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:15,320 Speaker 1: because it just connects you with your body. It connects 787 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 1: you with your desires, your power, your intuition, and it 788 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 1: reclaims a part of us that are just we've lost 789 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 1: touch with. Yeah. Yeah, gives you really the opportunity to 790 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:37,120 Speaker 1: feel safe inside of yourself? Yes, yeah, thank you for 791 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 1: saying that. Yeah. I think so many women of color one, 792 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,439 Speaker 1: and especially up until recently, all women like you've never 793 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,360 Speaker 1: really been able to even own your own story or 794 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:52,719 Speaker 1: speak freely about things you've experienced. There's always this expectation 795 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: of how you should show for others, how you should 796 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 1: heal others, how you should nourish others and martyr for others. 797 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 1: And you know what that really means is what that 798 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:07,240 Speaker 1: translates into is a feeling of not being safe inside 799 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 1: of yourself, feeling like you are a stranger to yourself, um, 800 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:17,360 Speaker 1: feeling scared and anxious to even spend time with yourself 801 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:20,840 Speaker 1: alone and be with your thoughts or be with your body. 802 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: You know. Um, there's so many tiny ways we start 803 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 1: to betray ourselves and add to our suffering and add 804 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: to the pain of our stories and our narratives that 805 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:35,359 Speaker 1: we don't even realize just because we don't know how 806 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 1: to be at rest with us. Yeah, definitely, And yeah, 807 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,839 Speaker 1: with this work, you get to connect with yourself and 808 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 1: feel safe and therefore really trust the choices that you make, 809 00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:51,520 Speaker 1: really trust them and be at one with them. And 810 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 1: you know, we're speaking about pleasure, pleasure, pleasure, but a 811 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 1: lot of this work is also about boundaries and how 812 00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:00,680 Speaker 1: to identify what doesn't feel good. So that super clear 813 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 1: with that as well. Oh my gosh, I love that. 814 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 1: Can you speak more to that? Yeah, yeah, So that's 815 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,840 Speaker 1: a huge chunk of where we begin in this journey 816 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 1: is how do you actually say what you don't want? 817 00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:16,720 Speaker 1: You know, we as women override and tolerate so much 818 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 1: where caregivers, where mothers were just feel like we have 819 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,960 Speaker 1: to carry the world on our back. So we pushed 820 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 1: past our boundaries constantly, and by doing this work, you 821 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: really connect with what feels good, what doesn't feel good 822 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 1: and what feels like me and all that met is 823 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 1: like that's a no, yeah, yeah, and it could be 824 00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,760 Speaker 1: interesting everybody, and do this without judgment, but really spend 825 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 1: time and thought of like maybe when was that having 826 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,879 Speaker 1: an intimate moment with a partner and actually didn't want 827 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 1: to do that, but I didn't say anything, or I 828 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,880 Speaker 1: just thought, well it's fine, Or you didn't like the 829 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 1: way they were touching you, but you didn't want to 830 00:52:57,680 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 1: correct them because you know, you may have felt that 831 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:03,439 Speaker 1: that would have been embarrassing or thrown the mood off, 832 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,439 Speaker 1: you know. And and how often do we really get 833 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:12,320 Speaker 1: to practice saying what we want in real time? Yeah, 834 00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 1: so saying what you want and saying what you don't want, 835 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 1: but in a way that's not from a place of 836 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 1: trigger but a loving no, a loving like way to redirect, 837 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 1: which we don't ever get taught. What would that sound 838 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: like like if if you were with a partner right 839 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 1: now and the way they were touching you it wasn't bad, 840 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 1: but you're like, I just rather have be touched in 841 00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: a different way. How would you vocalize that? Yeah, I 842 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 1: would say I appreciate your touch right there, but it 843 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 1: would feel much better if you grabbed my hips and 844 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 1: pulled me closer like that really turns me on. So 845 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,840 Speaker 1: you're appreciating what they're doing, but you're redirecting them to 846 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 1: a place that you really like. Or if it's something 847 00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,359 Speaker 1: that really you know you don't like, you just say 848 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 1: that doesn't make me feel good in my body, I 849 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,320 Speaker 1: would really appreciate if you touched me in this way instead. 850 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 1: That's so powerful. Any way that we can learn boundaries, 851 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,320 Speaker 1: any way that we can learn to advocate for self 852 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 1: is so important. Not just for this talk that I know, 853 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:19,400 Speaker 1: you know feels like really sexy or really sexualized or sensual, 854 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: but all of these tools, especially the ones you put 855 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 1: into play in your most intimate moments, they're the tools 856 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 1: that are going to be able to lead your life. 857 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 1: And you're going to be able to stand in the 858 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 1: world with this authentic inner power and this peace and 859 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: this radiance. And so I believe you know, when we 860 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:41,719 Speaker 1: talk about mind, body, soul, we have to have the 861 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 1: integration of all three. And so for me, the journey 862 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: is not complete. No matter how many books you've read, 863 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:54,000 Speaker 1: how much therapy, how much journaling you do, you know 864 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 1: you also have to have the somatic experiencing, and I 865 00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 1: believe that once you've heard of this work, no woman 866 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 1: should go without like this is such a profoundly powerful 867 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 1: and necessary piece of the puzzle of really coming into 868 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 1: a place of wholeness as a woman, remembering your full wholeness. 869 00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 1: Mm hmm, you do powerful work. Thank you, TeV. Well, 870 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 1: you know it's not even me, That's the thing is. 871 00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:27,720 Speaker 1: I feel like this is just reconnecting with your body. 872 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:31,440 Speaker 1: I'm just a guide. Yeah, So I'd like to I 873 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:34,319 Speaker 1: like to end the show first, please let everyone know 874 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 1: how they can connect with you, because I know people 875 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,799 Speaker 1: are going to be so excited to learn more. And 876 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 1: I know you have programs available on your website, so 877 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 1: please share some of that. Yes, thank you so much. 878 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,280 Speaker 1: So you can go to my website, the Pleasure Plus, 879 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 1: and that's the online community for women, and there I 880 00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 1: have courses, I have individualized sessions for one on one 881 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 1: um I do the Volva mapping there and I work 882 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 1: in person, but I also do a lot of my 883 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:05,319 Speaker 1: work now via zoom, so it's fully accessible.

She 892 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 1: was doing work with Betty Dotson, and when she just 893 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,360 Speaker 1: revealed a small amount of what she was doing, my 894 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 1: heart instantly knew, I have to know more. This is 895 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 1: for me. So if you're hearing that and feeling that, 896 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,800 Speaker 1: I really recommend that you go to Simone's website, pleasure Plus. 897 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 1: She has beautiful courses available um different entry points, so 898 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:58,400 Speaker 1: as ready as you are, there will be something available 899 00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:02,959 Speaker 1: to you and would just be a really incredible experience 900 00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 1: to begin investigating. There's no race, there's no pressure, but 901 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 1: there's always more that we can have. There's more available 902 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 1: to us. So someone in closing, I like to end 903 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 1: every show with what I call soul work. It's a 904 00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:28,439 Speaker 1: little bit of homework for the listeners to take whip 905 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 1: them into the week until we meet again in the 906 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 1: next episode. So is there something some soul work, some 907 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 1: homework that you can give to everyone that they can 908 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 1: start experiencing. Yes, there is, uh so I would invite 909 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 1: you all tonight or in the morning, or whenever you 910 00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:51,520 Speaker 1: find your an intimate moment with yourself to take a breath, 911 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:56,520 Speaker 1: to drop into your body, to put one hand over 912 00:57:56,600 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 1: your heart and one hand cupping your yoni or your vulva, 913 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,600 Speaker 1: your pussy, whatever you call her. I definitely invite you 914 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: to name her if that's something you haven't done already, 915 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 1: and just sit there. Just the act of coping her 916 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:19,760 Speaker 1: is incredibly powerful and from this place, if you're feeling 917 00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 1: any kind of uncertainty or if you want to receive 918 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 1: more pleasure, just channeling that and asking her if she 919 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 1: has a message for you mm hm. And you can 920 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:37,280 Speaker 1: do this copying her. You can do this over your womb, 921 00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:43,920 Speaker 1: on your ovaries, but just asking what that messages and 922 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 1: then receiving it. Ah, that's so beautiful. And don't try 923 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 1: to fill that space with a response of your own, 924 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:56,919 Speaker 1: like really give it some room for depth. Really let 925 00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 1: spirit universe bring forward you know, um, and maybe you 926 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 1: could even say like what do you really want?
