In today’s episode we speak with Nora Logan, a long time friend who is a writer, healer and host of the podcast ‘So Life Wants You Dead”(listen tot the latest episode with my beloved partner Harshada) and Serenity Never Substack.

We get into aging and destruction as a catalyst for creativity (she is also teaching on this in our online Body Temple School Friday you can join it here.) It’s so good have a listen and let us know what stands out.

Special shout out to Jeff from Cosmic Cousins for putting this episode together! Go follow and work with them.

I am a somatic sex educator and healing artist, deeply engaged in the transformative—and sometimes excruciating—journey of self-discovery and liberation through intimacy, relationship. (Join us for a ritual theater and somatic Body Temple Immersion live in NYC end of November.)

Within me, I carry whispers of the Black Madonna, a reminder of the fierce but delicate balance between the sacred and the mundane, destruction and creation, death and rebirth, as teacher and an eternal student of transformation and the love that burns bright within. As the incredible mystic and scholar Christena Cleaveland says

…”the Black Madonna not only exists in the ashes of life, She also has the power to heal us and make us grow despite white patriarchy's devastating impact on us.”
