Can't Be Contained

Hello and welcome back to another exciting episode of Can’t Be Contained! This week, I couldn’t be more stoked to welcome Sheila Kelley to the show, an incredible example of a person who lives a truly uncontained life! Sheila is a pioneer in the art of embracing one’s erotic nature to heal and transform relationships. Together, we’ll delve into Sheila’s journey as an actress, the 25 year celebration of “S Factor”, Sheila’s whole life embodiment practice for women, and its’ pandemic induced shift from physical to digital platforms. Sheila shares with me stunning details from her documentary, “Strip Down, Rise Up”, and her now renowned Tedx talk. 

Throughout our “stripped down” discussion, Sheila and I explore the innate power in rediscovering our innate feminine energy, the significance of tuning into the body’s intelligence, and the disconnect between cognitive visualization and the embodiment of sensual energy. 

We sincerely hope this episode inspires you to embrace your body, and find your POWER through pleasure!
