Reclaiming Pleasure & Feminine Power After Divorce: How to Heal & Thrive with Anne Bland


Listen Later

Are you feeling disconnected from your own pleasure, feminine energy, and sense of self? After a divorce, many women find themselves struggling to reconnect with their bodies, desires, and the ability to receive joy. 


In this episode of The Crazy Ex-Wives Club, I’m joined by Anne Bland, a pleasure-based wellness specialist, to explore how you can reclaim your pleasure, redefine intimacy, and break free from societal conditioning that keeps you stuck in burnout and disconnection.


Anne shares her powerful journey of rebuilding after burnout and divorce, uncovering the deep-rooted beliefs that keep women from living in their full pleasure and power. Together, they break down the myths surrounding pleasure, discuss how to integrate more joy into daily life, and explore practices like yoni eggs, breathwork, and embodiment techniques to reignite your inner radiance.


🔑 Key Themes & Takeaways:

  • 🌱 Reclaiming Pleasure Beyond Burnout – Anne shares her story of leaving a high-achieving life behind and discovering that true fulfillment comes from tuning into pleasure, not just productivity.

  • 💡 Healing the Feminine & Masculine Imbalance – Why many women get stuck in hyper-masculine "go mode" after divorce and how to rebalance by embracing feminine flow, creativity, and receiving.

  • Your Body Holds the Answers – How trauma, stress, and societal conditioning create disconnection from your body and how to restore trust in your intuition, sensuality, and joy.

  • ❤️ Pleasure Is Not Just About Sex – Understanding pleasure in all its forms, from daily rituals to deep connection with yourself.

  • 🌀 Rewiring for Joy & Self-Trust – Practical techniques for tapping into pleasure, such as embodiment practices, movement, and breathwork, to create lasting transformation.

  • 🔥 The Role of Yoni Healing & Energy Practices – How yoni eggs and de-armoring practices can release stored emotions, heal past wounds, and reignite passion.
