Aimee sits down with three Somatica-trained coaches - Cory, Alisa, and Danielle - the founders of vulvA, a modern sanctuary and community for vulva owners. Together, they share the "why" behind building this platform, their personal origin stories, and how shame is one of the biggest forces that silences our truth - and how we begin to undo it.

With backgrounds spanning nursing and women's health, trauma-informed coaching, hypnotherapy/energy work, pelvic floor healing, cyclical living, and conscious kink, these three women offer a comprehensive and holistic approach to educating and empowering vulva owners through nervous-system safety, embodied practices, modern education, and community connection.

vulvA isn't just women's empowerment - it's a movement of returning to what's already inside you: truth, self-awareness, and erotic aliveness.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why shame is a primary ingredient in silencing our truth, and how simply naming "vulva" can begin to break the spell
• The difference between physical safety and emotional safety and how they are both needed for your nervous system regulation
• How silence and shame around periods, anatomy, and desire gets passed down - and how we change the legacy
• The truth about vulva diversity - there is no "normal" vulva (and why seeing real vulvas can be profoundly healing)
• How grief, chronic pain, and pelvic floor dysfunction can be invitations back into the body
• Why midlife can be an awakening, not a crisis - and a powerful time to reconnect with your body and pleasure – not for a partner but for you

Meet the founders of vulvA:

• Cory, a registered nurse for 30 years, former labor & delivery nurse with deep expertise in anatomy, hormones, menopause, creates safety through consent and attuned care.
• Danielle, a self-relationship coach using hypnotherapy/RTT, energy healing, health + nutrition support, and intuitive guidance helps clients return to truth and authenticity.
• Alisa, a sex, kink, & intimacy coach and former business psychologist; shares her journey through grief, divorce, pelvic floor pain, somatic healing, cyclical living, and conscious kink as a path back home.
