    After experiencing more trauma than most by the young age of 21, Hannah decided to make her messy both her magic and her mission. She now uses her own journey of healing to help burned-out, perfectionist people-pleasing women create alignment, self-love, and have amazing sex.

    Hannah’s story is one of courage and hope, and we just know you’re gonna get so much from it.

  • Healing through Kink with Kimi Inch -- ep 28

    The world of kink is often portrayed as a dominatrix, dressed head to toe in leather, beating somebody. That’s why we’re delighted to be joined by special guest Kimi Inch, to set the record straight. Kimi is a professional dominatrix, BDSM educator, published author and somatic healer. She shares her different perspective on the kink world, which is one of consciousness, healing and empowerment.

    Hosts Brianna and Mark first met Kimi at the couples retreat they recently attended. They were blown away by her work in teaching individuals and couples how to deepen their connection to themselves and their relationship to others. 

    This episode will reframe what you think of as ‘kinky’, so that you can finally leave the shame behind and fulfill your desires.

    We cover:

    • The healing powers of kink
    • Conscious kink journeys
    • How to start incorporating kink as a couple
    • The link between sexuality and creativity
    • Self pleasure practices for women to explore kink

  • "The Talk": How & When to talk with your kids about sex & body safety -- ep 27

    Society has painted this picture of parents having just one ‘sit down talk’ about the birds and the bees when their kids hit puberty. But is that all there is to it? Is one awkward conversation over the kitchen counter really going to empower our kids with the tools and resources they need to make proper choices?

    While the internet acts as an enormous wealth of knowledge for our tech-savvy children, it can also be a vast assortment of misinformation. This makes it even more important to educate parents about how to navigate these conversations in the most positive way for their kids.

    The topic of when and how to have ‘the talk’ is a very present issue for hosts Brianna and Mark, which is why they want to create safety for children through educating parents around this topic. They want to reduce the stigma of talking about sex and encourage parents to feel comfortable talking to their kids about it.

    In this episode, you will learn:

    • The link between using proper terminology and sexual abuse
    • When to approach boundaries and body safety with your kids
    • Age appropriate ways to answer common questions
    • When and how to do the ‘sex talk’
    • How to conduct conversations around self-pleasure with teens

    If you’ve avoided these conversations until now or want to feel more prepared about how to tackle them, don’t miss this episode!
