In this episode of the ReMasculation Podcast, I sit down with embodiment guide and sacred theater facilitator Madelyn Moon for a rich, playful, and eye-opening conversation about feminine expression, performative trauma, and reclaiming the body as an instrument of power.
We talk about the split so many women feel between the version of themselves at work, with friends, and at home, and what it takes to bridge that gap.
This one’s for the woman who longs to feel fully alive in her body…
And for the man who wants to understand her better.
Madelyn brings the fire, the depth, and the artistry.
We even meet her “Ice Queen.”
If you're tired of the filtered highlight reels and ready for the real… this one's for you.
Here’s what we explore:
Why women feel split between performance and presence
The roots of body-based shame and inhibition
How performance trauma shows up in adulthood
Reclaiming the full spectrum of feminine archetypes
Why acting school should be required for everyone
What men can learn from sacred theater
The importance of being witnessed in imperfection
This episode is a masterclass in creative embodiment for women and the men who love them.
Let’s make art out of the mess.
