Episode Summary:

In this shame free and judgement free episode, I explore vibrators, clitoral stimulation, and how self pleasure can become a more connected, embodied, and nourishing experience. Rather than focusing on performance or outcomes, this conversation invites a broader understanding of pleasure as something that can be trained, expanded, and integrated into the whole body. I speak to the physiology of stimulation, the nervous system, and how habitual patterns can shape what we feel and expect from pleasure. This episode is an invitation to approach self pleasure with curiosity, intention, and care, supporting not only more satisfying orgasmic experiences, but greater wellbeing, self awareness, and choice.

Key Topics Covered:

How vibrators and stimulation interact with the nervous system

Understanding desensitisation, numbing, and pleasure tolerance

Training the body for a wider range of pleasurable experiences

Clitoral care, sensitivity, and conscious touch

Sharing pleasure and learning from pleasure based practices

Using breath to support expanded orgasmic states

Moving toward holistic self pleasure rather than goal focused release

Creating intentional self pleasure sessions

The relationship between pleasure, regulation, and overall wellbeing

Episode Summary:

In this episode, I explore why we settle in our sexual and intimate lives and what keeps us stuck in sex slumps. I discuss the energetics of settling, how trauma, attachment patterns, and social conditioning shape our choices, and how we can reconnect with our authentic desires. We talk about the power of erotic intelligence, the ways pleasure and safety intersect, and how learning to assert your needs can transform not just your sex life but your relationships and sense of self. This conversation is for anyone wanting to move beyond the status quo and cultivate sex and intimacy that is nourishing, energizing, and fully aligned with who they are.

Key Topics Covered:

What settling looks like in sex and relationships and how it can become harmful

Understanding why sex slumps happen and what keeps us in them

The role of education, self-exploration, and expansion in sexual fulfillment

Attachment, trauma, and the impact on our intimacy and desire

How tantric practices and erotic intelligence can deepen connection and self-awareness

Learning to assert needs and boundaries across all areas of life

Identifying your unique pleasure triggers and safety needs

Using sexuality as a pathway to transformation, self-actualization, and trance states

Oooph. This is one of those ones! The resistance to sharing this episode is real, knowing that there will be a slew of DM's along with a large vulnerability hangover. There is also a knowing that I am mid-process with this subject,  so please listen from a place of non-judgment and objectivity. Nothing is as black and white as I could ever paint in a 20-minute episode.

I hope this episode sparks a constructive conversation around power dynamics, unconscious patterns of insecurity & how to be a sexually empowered woman while remaining in integrity.

In this episode I unpack:
- The destructive nature of the goddess & what we invoke when working with her.
- Sexual power from a place of deep insecurity
- The responsibility we have as sexually aware women with high erotic intelligence.
- How to not shame former versions of self (pre-awareness).
- Are you empowered or are you just running old coping mechanisms?

And so much more.

LIBERATION EPISODE! This is the first of many to come. Liberation episodes are designed with one sole purpose; to expand and liberate you through the expansion & liberation of others.

I truly believe that by witnessing women stepping into their unique feminine power, we simultaneously give ourselves permission to do the same. My story won't resonate with everyone, yet my hope for this podcast series is to share the diversity of transformation that can happen when we say YES to connection & pleasure.

Today I welcome Krissy Green aka Spiritual Kapu Tī ; Māreikura, Indigenous Healer, Intuitive Coach, Akashic Practitioner. Guided by Ancestral Wisdom. + On top of all that she is a criminal defense lawyer working in Manukau, New Zealand (!). 

Topics we cover include;
- The importance of embodiment for connection & healing.
- How Krissy has embraced her unique feminine  and how this has impacted her life (you'll love this)
- Calling in pleasure, aliveness & joy.
- Balancing the fullness of life with pleasure & practice.

And so much more...

I am touched to have this powerhouse wahine on the podcast and working me inside Sensual Sx as the assistant coach (YEP!). She is an expander of mine and I have no doubt her transmission will permeate through your headphones too - it is pure medicine. 

Enjoy xxx

• Orgasm as energy.
• Sexual energy for radiance, vitality, & magnetism.
• What is a kundalini awakening?
• How to approach this style of practice safely
• How sexual energy manifests what it looks like to move it through your body.
• The agelessness of sexual energy.

This episode is a bit of a overshare, my vulnerability hangover is already setting in as I type this. Yet I know our stories hold the power to uplift and inspire others to make changes they perhaps thought weren’t possible.

(TW)

In this episode, I talk about my lifelong journey with chronic depression and paralyzing anxiety. How my history of sexual abuse impacted me as a sexual adult. The moment I decided I was going to change and what I did to get to where I am today. I talk about my journey with sacred sxuality and how it has contributed to the most profound healing & expansion I could have ever imagined.

My mess has truly become my message.

I had another episode planned for today, all set up perfectly with pre-thought as I usually do, haha.

But I felt resistance to recording that one. I knew this needed to come through.

I hope this serves.
