Speak with Eve Eurydice

Eve Eurydice speaks with Kara Baruzzini, a Conscious event leader, who teaches Human Connection & intuitive yoga about Not Suffering. @eveeurydice speaks with @kara.makingwaves on the Power of the Rising Feminine Not to Suffer Patriarchy’s Dramas of Separation & Loss in Uncoupling. Emotional language is the language of the rising feminine, of what patriarchy calls instinct. When we let our past conditioning tell the story of what we are experiencing to our brain, we get stuck in repeating behaviors that are not our own choices, nor are within our logic. But our Emotion can be rewritten. We can repeat the language we have seen our families use or we can create our own language. Love is a leap of faith. Separation is a leap of faith too. A leap of faith is also the choice of our heart to accept and support the ending (the completion) of a relationship as another version of our empowerment. Scars incl psychic scars and ancestral traumas are the vocabulary of therapy and they imply illness. Breakups are normal. 50% of marriages 60% of second marriages 70% of third marriages ‘fail.’ Practically speaking, the system has lied to our brains. Our brains expect relationship success must be everlasting. Rather than seasonal and cyclical. Nature goes through the annual season of beginning & ending, of birth & death & then rebirth. So do humans in nature. The darkness is nurturing. Hearts don’t break. The ego, the identity, breaks. That’s what hurts. It’s not humanly possible to sustain one couple per lifetime without outside enforcement, legal requirement, and authoritarian control. We have evolved legally, socially, morally, but not emotionally. We still speak in terms of the inherited drama modeled for us by TV & movies, by our ancestors & peers. The weight of our cultural inheritance pulls us in the direction of pain, the narrative of recrimination & victimization & revenge. We as individuals & as a society must rewrite the narrative of love & celebrate the courage that it takes to move on. We must resist the mass weight of the past. We must take up the work of resisting the pull of the previous millennia in order to hear our own new voice. We complete the relationship. We journal. We open healthy space. We hold emotion containers to be sad or angry in. We create an altar in nature. We Build ritual around our agency to fortify it. We exchange completion & consolation words. We hold a business meeting. We agree on how we will behave next. We find what we are grateful for. We give affirmations & thanks. There is no love greater than the strength to say goodbye. The new you is not the old you. The Patriarchy is Old Earth. On the other side of all that, the Feminine is Rising.

Eve Eurydice speaks with Elizabeth Mitchell—author of Lincoln’s Lie: a true civil war caper through fake news, Wall Street, & the White House—about history & politics, Gender & Patriarchy, Abe & Mary Lincoln, shopaholics man & murder at the theatre, the civil war & Slavery as an existential issue for the American Experiment. We live in historically potent times & we can understand the present instability better when we look closely to our past. Men in the public sphere still fight dirty for dominance. Women are still judged by the male gaze, no matter what we achieve in work & motherhood. We all get trapped by the demands of self-presentation & have no way to get out of the old dualisms. The way out is to restructure language & meaning & our consciousness so that we can contain all our contradictions at once into one continuous weave. America was founded on behalf of multiplicity instead of central authoritative truth, inclusion instead of identity optics. America’s promise is to unite the opposites under the democratic ideal. The conundrum is when we all believe we are fighting for democracy & are willing to die for it & not understand that we stand on the same side. ⚡️ Humanity is both ineffably flawed & ineffably beautiful. Biz Mitchell has also authored Liberty's Torch: The Great Adventure to Build the Statue of Liberty, The Fearless Mrs. Goodwin, & more.

Has Online Dating Changed the Way We Date & Mate & Like Each Other Forever? How did Covid-19 affect Romance in 2020? Eve Eurydice speaks to Matthew James about online dating apps & the resulting changes in human mating behaviors. The idea of love alone releases happy neurochemicals into the body. We get a chemical release just from getting likes & attention. When the dopamine hits of desire are mediated by phonescreens & apps, our expectations of pleasure change source. The Chemical Release is affected by a third party: the algorithm. Eve Eurydice speaks with Matthew about the different ways in which dating apps are changing our dating behaviors. The goal of the app is to keep bringing us back to the app. The goal of the app can’t be to no longer be needed. The app wants to change our behavior so that we’ll go through apps to find ppl to be romantic with. We are the product: we wanting & seeking love in the world What’s the Ratio of investment of time to relationship? Apps are better for temporary hook-ups or short-term partnerships. Apps train our brain to have low expectations—a quickie instead of true love. The proliferation of potential matches itself is prohibitive. We do not have time to know each person enough to make an honest choice. We get inundated emotionally on the human level. From then we focus on superficial contact. Intimacy is the False Promise of Social Media. Social Media is part of our Public Life. Our dating life is private. It’s where we hope to be accepted in our vulnerable truth. Love is unconditional trust. From an evolutionary standpoint, the apps show us what is not love.

Tantra in the 21st century. Eve Eurydice speaks sexual justice, how to find harmony and happiness, the institution of marriage, tantric wisdom, Gestalt practices, the optics of sex & the effects of the digital lifestyle on the Body with Laurie Handlers—author of Sex & Happiness: The Tantric Laws of Intimacy. We discuss Tantra as a way of life. Tantra removes the ego so we can Embrace what is as what we want. The idea of the 'Secret' has been confused for the individual manifesting his or her will on the world—it’s not; the idea of self-love has been misunderstood as loving the self instead of others; yoga is seen as a workout instead of a holistic spiritual practice. The overcapitalization of humanity robs it of its power & essence. Capitalization takes the Spirit out of the practice. Spiritual teaching takes time. It’s unteaching. It's the Breath. Breath is Spirit. The meaning of happiness is harmony. Harmony is tantra. The pursuit of happiness in the Constitution was written to mean harmony. We need to elevate the sexual experience in society, to culturally validate the body. Laurie has offered sexual health & happiness courses for corporations & individuals throughout the world since 1999. For the past 10 years, she's hosted the weekly radio podcast Sex and Happiness, has produced and starred in 3 independent award-winning films, and is Lead Faculty at ISTA (International School of Temple Arts). She teaches Extraordinary Lovers, Tantra Meets BDSM, What's Sex Got to Do with Aging.

The Paradox of the Trump Charisma: Why Strongman Masculinity Cliches brought out the diverse Latinx vote in Miami. Why Strongman Masculinity Turns on the Body Politic. Eve Eurydice Demystifies the pro-Trump vote 2020 with Rafael Gomez, who teaches Latin studies at Lehman College with a focus on the Latinx experience in the United States, incl. the migratory experience of the Latinx population. He’s a Ph.D. Candidate in Latin American & Caribbean Studies at SUNY Albany. We trace how Trump reactivated the primal instincts we were raised on. Inadvertently people who fled sectarian conflict zones led by strongmen resonate with Trump’s reprise of the role of the charismatic Supreme Leader. They find Trump-as-Fearless Leader comfortably familiar. He’s the American strongman. MAGA is a political populist cult. The Miami Latin vote is emotional nostalgia for the reassurance of dictators, for the strong leader who’s willing to punish. It’s not the success of better spin by the Trump brand nor the micro targeting of GOP messaging. It’s the Dynastic Drama played out by the two-party-only system. Miami’s Latin vote disproved the urban rural opposition. So no Democratic landslide in 2020 due to the loss of Florida which is poised to expand its stand your ground law. When the patriarchy is all we know, it’s hard to imagine how to move forward so we move backward looking for safety in the familiar. Trump is that abusive partner you know is toxic but you are hooked on the intensity. Trump is the narcissist who makes you feel good because he senses what you want him to promise & he’ll say anything. The Trump hit is emotional. Pure reality TV. The Dems can’t undo it with logic, fearmongering & identity politics. The way out of the patriarchy is expanding our span, our consciousness, our view of our options. The internet works when it opens up our horizons. The internet hurts when it amplifies our tribal instincts instead of our options out of past conditioning.

Eve Eurydice speaks with Kevin Wu who runs the account @freebritneyla & advocates for Britney. For 12 years, Britney Spears has been stripped of her basic human rights under a conservatorship reserved for incapacitated individuals. Conservatorship can be used by the courts to reinforce Female Domestic Captivity. In 2007 Britney, as a 26-year-old celebrity & new Mom going through a public divorce, was hounded by the tabloid media & she had a breakdown. She committed no crimes, but her Dad James & his business manager Lou Tyler petitioned the California courts for a Conservatorship over her person & her estate. Her doctors joined in this corrupt scheme that gave her Dad access to Probate Conservatorship of the kind meant for old people who suffer from dementia. For the past 12 years Britney isn’t a person. Her Dad is Britney. He decides whether & where she works, whether & what she drives, whether & whom she sees, whether & what she sings & he signs her name on deals as if she were a woman in past centuries. He manages the fortune she has earned as ‘a liberated’ woman. She has 30% supervised visitations. Her ex took a restraining order on her Dad thereby lessening the time she can spend with her kids (one man, the current father & patriarch vs her father & previous patriarch, fighting for control over her children who will eventually inherit her $600M trust). This is how patriarchs control their adult daughters' or wives' behavior. Britney’s case is now precedent. This week the #FreeBritney movement, spearheaded by Spears’ fans, has won Britney the right to her own attorney after 12 years! Attend free Britney rallies, promote them, & boycott the brand that provides the funds that are the incentives for keeping Britney hostage. A conservatorship strips a person of the legal rights to even fight it. That’s why most conservatorships survive until death: The people subject to them lack the legal ability to escape from them.

Eve Eurydice speaks with Michelle Alva, creator of the Alva Method of Healing, a process of self-discovery that teaches us to connect deeply to the present moment, align to our heart & soul & sexual body, create heart coherence & awaken our intuition. We discuss self-love & selfless love, how we can reprogram our Neurolinguistic templates to redefine our expectations of unconditional love to manifest our self healing to turn codependency into interdependence! Marrying our selves is a symbolic first step on this path. We tell ourselves to expect love not from specific people but from our own core & from life itself—so we don’t behave in order to be liked by other people which gives us anxiety stress dependency but so that we are fulfilled & feel authentic. Love isn’t something we get from other people. Love is agency, consistency & sovereignty. If we rewrite our narrative of love, we can create a mass transition to a better society. Relationships are projections of how we see ourselves & how we perceived our childhoods—which is too arbitrary to spend the rest of our lives replaying & perpetuating. We can let go of drama & trauma. We can live lighter happier lives. At the end, Eve marries herself & commits to love & respect herself. Michelle’s vows, which Eve repeats in the podcast ceremony, can be found online along w her online classes at https://michellealva.com Michelle Alva has spent the past 23 years studying health & wellness modalities that unite science with ancient healing practices. She empowers people to self-integrate & to explore sexuality & sensuality from an intuitive perspective. ⚡️ For more ways to Speak Sex, go to https://speaksexpodcast.com https://Eurydice.net Facebook.com/Speaksexpodcast/ or http://www.youtube.com/EveEurydice/
