The Vital Goddess

When the book Eat, Pray Love came out I was worlds away from grabbing my passport and hopping on a flight to find myself. I love the book (and love travel) and I think Elizabeth Gilbert is amazing, but the adventure she so beautifully describes; one woman's search for everything, wasn't happening for this woman.   Not then. At the time EPL hit the stands I was hitting the gas on my Mom T...

Most people have a complicated relationship with desire. So many are running on an outdated, disempowering script on desire that's simply not serving them. We've been conditioned to be skeptical of desire, to short change, to shun it and even shame it. It doesn't have to be that way. We can live into a new enlivening and empowering script on desire. And set it free from choke hold o...

Do you believe in magic? Do you believe in your magic? That's the real question. It's no secret that modern life can feel anything but magical. We can so easily find ourselves wired, tired, high and dry. Desperately craving the spark, juice, the aliveness and inspo that we know in our hearts is possible. Well, I'm here to tell you that the magic is in you. And you can make the bold...

Things are shifting... We're about to experience a powerful astrological transit that we'll all be feeling over the next 19 years. After cleaning house and working its shamanic death and rebirth medicine on systems of all kinds in Capricorn since 2008, on November 19th Pluto will move  into freedom-loving Aquarius. Shifting the focus of transformation and healing from shining the light o...

What does sustainable pleasure look like? What would be possible if you had better access to more of your calm, ease, flow & wisdom more of the time? No matter what's going on. What happens when a woman truly inhabits her sensuality?  We live in wild times, no doubt. In the chaos and confusion of the world it's so easy to lose connection to who you are. To be cut off from your inner...

These are no ordinary times. And you are no ordinary woman. In times like these it can be easy to forget that you were born for this. But you've got what it takes. It's not a mistake that you're here. All you seek is inside of you. And your Astrological natal chart can help you remember. Astrology gives language to the beauty, magic and power of your soul. To the nuances of you. The...

Low libido is often described as one of the things that  “just happens” when a woman reaches a certain age or begins her journey into Menopause. If you’ve been handed the “it’s the beginning of the end” script, you know how disempowering and even infuriating  that can feel.  But low libido and vaginal dryness is not just an “older woman” thing. These days many women in their 20s and 30s are showin...

“Is it really possible to be in alignment with my deepest values and enjoy wealth and success in my business/career?” “Can I truly have more ease, flow, joy, love and pleasure in my life while doing work that I’m passionate about?” “Can I live my purpose sans the burnout?  And have the time and energy for a thriving personal life?” As the world is changing sooo fast and old ways of doing things ju...

There's a commonly held belief that women are not as interested in sex as men are. It's time to bust that myth. I think what we often confuse as "not interested" is really "not interested in what's on the menu". It all boils down to the initiation we never got. Most of us have never been initiated into the sacred power of our bodies, our sensuality and sexuality...

I love a juicy tale of a woman diving deep and reclaiming herself. Don't you? When I witness another woman, sharing her story of feminine reclamation there's magic in the air. ✨✨✨ It enlivens, inspires and ignites me in a way that's hard to express in words. I guess that makes sense. Words can only capture a part of what's going on here. It's a vibe. It's felt. A r...

I have a vulnerable share. Are you ready? My very first Jade Egg sat in the drawer for months. Not days. Not weeks. We’re talkin’ m onths . Like so many women, when I first heard about the Taoist Jade Egg practice, I was intrigued. I’m a pretty holistic gal, so the promise of healing my pelvic floor issues (which were pretty bad) naturally , really appealed to me.  I’m also kinda witchy, to be hon...

Finding it hard to be in your femme flow? That place of calm and ease where you feel so good in your skin? Is it a challenge to prioritize your joy and pleasure (even though you really, really want to)? Can't seem to fit in the things you love and practices that you know will help you to  thrive? Feeling overwhelmed with just too much "stuff to do" on your plate? So much so that you...

Hey amazing woman!  I know you’re rocking it in so many areas of your life but, (yes, I'm daring to ask), how’s your love life? Are you yearning for more? I think most women are. When it comes to intimacy do you find yourself confused or frustrated?  Maybe you often find yourself hovering at chronic low (or high) grade disappointment and resentment?  Maybe you’re done with the whole confusing...

Desire. The very word has some charge to it doesn’t it? Desire has gotten a bad wrap in many spiritual circles and in society in general but in the realm of all things Venus, our desire is gold. But most of us weren’t taught that.  Quite the opposite. What I’ve come to understand and live more fully into is that desire is sacred life force calling us forward to our next adventure and our next grow...

When it comes to astrology, most people know their Sun sign. Many know their Moon and Rising signs too. But so few are acquainted with their personal Venus. To be honest not many astrologers give Her much attention. Or the wrong, “bad news”, disempowering kind of attention. Like “with your Venus in this sign, or with this aspect on your Venus, your love life is doomed.” kind of thing. That’s dange...

Orgasm is a loaded topic isn’t it? There’s a lot here to unpack. In today’s episode I share my thoughts and experiences on something I call the Feminine Face of Orgasm. The model we’ve been handed is limiting leaving many women frustrated and unfulfilled.  If your experience of orgasm leaves you wanting more and  wondering…”is that all there is?” You’re certainly not alone. And there is more.  So...

Venus, Goddess of Love. Why should we care? When we think of the things Venus/Aphrodite represents; beauty, sensuality, pleasure, sex, passion, love and intimacy it’s clear to see that these are themes most humans struggle with.  But it doesn’t have to be that way. This face of the Goddess has been dissed, dismissed, trivialized, commercialized and commoditized more than any other.  I find that ve...

There was a time in human history where beauty, pleasure, sexuality and all things Venus were held sacred. And life was good. When the Goddess of Love reigned supreme, systems of true partnership flourished and the power and virility of the Sacred Masculine was equally honored and celebrated.  These  civilizations were rich in sensuality, sport, ceremony, art and trade. Essential oils were used as...

Happy Solstice! The Solstice portals are always a powerful time for me. A time for reflection and celebration. A time to release and re-align. This Solstice was super special for me as I had the privilege of guiding a group of amazing women in my community through a sensual breathwork journey. It was such a beautiful reminder of just how potent sisterhood can be. Maybe it feels so extra sweet to m...

When we breathe like the ocean, we remember. Breath is one of the most powerful tools we can use to heal and transform our minds and bodies. I know you've heard that millions of times. And it's true. Maybe you've experienced this yourself. There are so many different techniques of breathwork that can produce so many different kinds of results. And I think all of that is great. But I...
