The Deep Dive with Adam Roa

Are you being intentional with your sexuality?

I talk about it a lot on this podcast, and have been so blessed with some of the amazing guests that have come on the show to talk about sex and sexuality. It is an important topic. We've grown up in a society that teaches some very sideways things about the truth of what sex is, and now more than ever I find it so important to not only seek for myself, but share knowledge about the deep truth behind what true sexuality is and what we can access from it. The energy that sexuality is can be incredibly healing, or deeply damaging depending on how we are using it and what our intentions are behind it. That's why I believe it is so crucial to really understand the power that we hold in our sexuality, and how to use it for love.

This week my guest is Juanpa Barahona. An amazing coach, facilitator, speaker at MindValley, and among many other things, a student of tantra and conscious spirituality; Juanpa's energy and knowledge around this topic was felt from the moment I met him. Join us in this conversation around sexual superpowers, how to access them, and how to use them to spread love to ourselves and those around us, and may it open up some new perspectives for you to explore in your own experience of sex and sexuality.

The CREATE Love Fest is happening February 10th, 11th, and 12th. This is the community's 3rd online festival and for this one, we are diving into the topic of Love.

What is your relationship with abundance?

There is a spin that can be put on the pleasures of life that isn't always positive. As human beings who are working towards more love, more acceptance, and over all a less complicated experience of life; the belief that a desire for money, sex, or power, is actually harming our society, our planet, and ourselves. I totally agree that the unbalanced use of these energies has been detrimental to many aspects of our history and our current experience, and like any other addiction, when left unchecked these can be extremely damaging and harmful to ourselves and others. Balance is the key, and also true understanding of what these energies mean and how they can be used as a tool. To experience abundance, we first need to understand what an abundant or prosperous mindset really is.

For this conversation, I invited my friend Ali Katz: lawyer, entrepreneur, mom, and a good friend of mine who has experienced many levels of what it means to be abundant. The conversation around money, sex, power, and especially the desire for it can seem to bring up resistance, and as I had this conversation I even noticed that type of programming still present in myself. But if you aren't willing to explore the topic of this type of prosperity mindset, is it possible to ever really experience it?

What does it mean to be a Goddess?

We've all heard the term applied to the women of our time, and is no more prominent anywhere than the conscious community. The modern, self-proclaimed title of "Goddess" has somewhat swept our culture and if you're like me, it's becoming harder and harder to grasp the concept of what actually defines a goddess and what qualifies the title. Does calling yourself a goddess on your IG handle mean you are truly self actualize, or enlightened? Or is there more to the equation, and a deeper meaning behind what it means to truly embody the qualities of a divine being?

This question was perfect for a conversation with my friend Taylor Simpson, an incredible coach, podcast host, motivational speaker, and thought leader especially in the space of women empowerment and actualization. Taylor has her own perspective, and even her own triggers around the modern goddess movement, and offers a somewhat refreshing perspective on the subject. We dive into this topic to discuss some of the benefits and potential pitfalls of what may be turning into a fad, but is rooted in a truth that is so important as we continue to work towards healing the feminine and masculine dynamics, and empowering women to really own their truth.

How has 2022 started out for you?

On last week's episode of The Deep Dive I talked about some of my tips for journaling and why this style of writing can be an integral part of setting clear intentions and moving intentionally into the new year. It's an amazing tool that can be used to not only set intentions, but even discover new ones and parts of yourself that may be present whether you acknowledge them or not.

This week I decided to keep it short and sweet, and continue the conversation. This time, I want to talk about the different styles of journaling that I actually do. An important part about writing in any fashion, is that it is meant to be creative. When we allow ourselves to communicate through pen and pad, our writing becomes an art form and therefore can be incredibly healing. That's why I want to share with you some of these tips, and let you in on the 4 different styles of journaling that I use.

Have you set intentions for 2022?

It has been another crazy year. I don't think I'm alone when I say that I really thought 2021 was going to be a little more "normal" than 2020, but it was hard for anyone to really be able to foresee everything that came our way in the last 365 days. Now, no matter how things have changed around the world or how people around you have changed, it actually makes it more important to be very intentional about HOW we are moving into the next year and clear about what we are calling in.

This week, as I prepare myself for a new year, I wanted to share with you one of the ways that I do that. Journaling has been a huge part of my life, and I would go as far as saying that I wouldn't be where I am, or who I am, today without the dedication I've developed to this practice. I want to walk you through some of my own intentions for 2022, as well as offer some advice on how to set your own and really reflect on the last year in your life. This one is all about taking the wheel in 2022, and continuing to move closer to living the life that you want to live. Enjoy the episode, and I want to wish you a very happy New Year.

Are you willing to say no?

If you listened to the last episode, you know that I recently attended a retreat in Costa Rica that was all about tantra, connection, and for me was about understanding myself deeper and ultimately healing some of the sexual wounding that I still feel has played a part in my ability to really open up and authentically relate in new romantic situations. If you've been following my content for a while, you know that sexuality and healing is a big topic for me and I continue to challenge myself to step outside of my comfort zone so that I can dig deeper into my own shadow and wounding so that I can continue to level up and discover new levels of what I consider showing up in my highest. That means that sometimes, in fact quite often, I will put myself in situations and scenarios that are meant to make me feel uncomfortable, and learn from the process of moving through that discomfort to understand myself in deeper ways.

It's not easy work by any means, and this experience at a very sexually charged tantra retreat was no walk in the park. Last week in Part 1 I shared some of my intentions, thoughts, and fears as I prepared myself for a week-long experience of pushing my boundaries. This week, I want to share some of my takeaways and reflections on the experience itself. I can tell you this; it was an opening, healing, difficult, and ultimately fun experience that allowed me to explore my own boundaries and ultimately really feel into what felt true for me, and when to really understand my own sacred no.

How far are you willing to go to heal?

This week it's just me. Vulnerable and from the heart as I sit in Costa Rica preparing for a week long retreat that will undoubtedly push me to the edge of my comfort zone and probably dig up a lot. I'm heading into what is described as a "spiritual, sexual, shamanic retreat" that is all about sexuality, tantra, intimate connection, and ultimately; authenticity and healing. If you've never experienced or entered into this type of work, I can tell you, often it's not as fun, playful, and self expressive as you might think. Sexual work is hard. It will push you to your edge, and force you to face off with beliefs and wounds that you might not even know you had.

As I prepare for this experience, this week I wanted to share with you my intentions going into it. There will be a follow up episode on my reflections and take-aways, and for now I want to dive into what I'm hoping to discover this week. What boundaries am I exploring? What fears or preconceptions are present? Sexuality is a deep topic for all of us, and as always, I want to give you a very real and very authentic look into my mindset going into what very possibly could be an expanding and healing experience for me.

Are you uncomfortable with nudity?

The topic of nudity is an interesting one and even a triggering one, even for me sometimes. In our society we have built up these social constructs around when and where being naked is appropriate, how much nudity is appropriate, and who it is appropriate to see or be naked with. I have always been a bit on the modest side (when it comes to nudity at least) and have noticed specifically in my past romantic relationships that there is a level of discomfort with being naked around other people. I've explored where this has come from, and done some work around what fears come up or what I'm making it mean to be nude around friends or even strangers. And going deeper, is it ever appropriate to be naked with or around another friends romantic partner?

Well, on this week's episode I pushed the boundary to get to the bottom of this subject. I literally got naked with my good friends girlfriend, Abergale Bremner. Abergale is also a good friend of mine, and is a next level coach, facilitator, and entrepreneur in the space of woman's work and sexuality who decided that if we were going to discuss the topic of nudity and comfortability around it, we might as well be naked while we record the podcast. Truly a first on the Deep Dive.

Enjoy the episode as we dive deep into the… naked truth about nudity.

Are you exploring different truths?

I'll start by saying this; you may want to listen to this one twice. For some of you this topic may be confronting, even triggering, especially if this is a new topic that you haven't had an opportunity to research. For others, this conversation will only be familiar to you if you've done some pretty deep exploration and spiritual work, and opened your mind up to the possibilities of the world around us and further into the cosmic reasons for our being here on this earth and in this reality. This week my guest introduces herself as an alien from the future, also known as a walk in, who is dedicating her time in this body to being a guardian for the evolution of humanity at this time. Ahaumna is also a friend of mine who, among normal human experiences like hikes, visits, and events, also was a part of something that I have never really touched on publicly on this podcast; my experience with an exorcism.

This world, and especially this time in history, is full of information and misinformation that we all have the choice to either believe or disregard. This week I ask you to open your mind to some of the potential truths that may not have been available to you just yet, and allow yourself to feel into what feels true to you. Myself, I'm still in the inquiry of what I believe around this topic. But Ahaumna provides a light into a space that is deep, cosmic, and maybe closer to us than we really realize.

The virus of our time may not be what we think it is. Go deep with us on this week's episode, and I truly am excited to receive your thoughts and your own experiences regarding this disruptive, fantastic, and for some; unbelievable topic.

How sacred is sex?

I haven't had sex in a while. It's been intentional, and it's honestly been such an amazing experience of introspection and even healing, but I'm not going to say it's been easy necessarily. Now I acknowledge that my idea of "a while" may be different than yours when it comes to being physically intimate, but one of the interesting topics of personal inquiry that have come out of this time of celibacy has been in actually recognizing how sacred it is for me to connect with and even share my energy with someone.

This week I decided to talk about sex and sexuality with one of my favorite human beings on the planet, as well as a highly qualified person to discuss this topic with, my friend Dr. Cat Meyer. Dr. Cat is a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in sex and trauma, as well as alternative relationship styles. Her platform Sex Love Yoga helps to evolve the relationships we have towards sex and to our bodies, and over all enhance our experience around sexuality. Join us for a deep conversation about the importance of understanding your own sexuality, how it can impact yourself and your sexual partners, and what it is you are actually seeking through sex in the first place.
