In this powerful episode, we explore what it really means to break free from the “good girl prison” and reclaim the wild, sensual, embodied self that lives within all of us.

Topics of Conversation: ✨ Why people are so triggered by the presence of a sensual, embodied woman and how those triggers are actually invitations to growth. ✨ How judgment can reveal your next edge and why the best teachers might trigger you. ✨ Her inspiring story and the creation of her studio that doesn’t fit in any box - where self-reclamation, sisterhood, and sensual movement meet. ✨ The magic of her 6-foot round sensory mats (yes, they’re as incredible as they sound) and the signature slow and wild movement method. ✨ The power of moving beyond rigid, linear movement practices into something fluid, freeing, and deeply feminine. ✨ The 10 themes of self-reclamation explored in her Slow & Wild method: Body, Voice, Time, Space, Intuition, Sensuality, Sexuality, Spirituality, Passion, Desire. ✨ The balance of Alpha/Omega and masculine/feminine dynamics and how this transforms relationships. ✨ And yes—we talk about her Dirty Vanilla Parties (part workshop, part sex-ed, part dance party!)

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field—meet me there.” - Rumi
