In today's episode, I invited kundalini yoga teacher, mentor, and mama herself – Catarina Andrade to speak with me about finding freedom and presence in motherhood and the bedroom!
In today's conversation, we explore what it's like to become conscious co-creators of motherhood and not buy into the, "it's so easy and natural" or the "motherhood sucks and it ties me down and I'm just waiting till the kids go off to college so I can have my life back" syndromes.
Catarina knows how to tap into presence in a way that makes us feel free in motherhood and the bedroom. Hear how her near-death experience changed everything for her and made her realize the one thing she was missing and wanted to create in her life.
In our interview, she tells about her spiritual awakening during a kundalini yoga class she attended on a retreat and how it inspired her to become a kundalini yoga teacher herself.
Catarina eloquently defines kundalini and how the 4 levels of presence can help us find freedom from suffering so we can experience more joy and pleasure as mothers and sexual beings.
We also dive deep into the topic of presence over productivity and how things aren't always linear…how when we leave room and make space for magic and miracles, they actually happen!
Catarina Andrade supports overwhelmed mothers to feel more calm, confident, and connected to themselves, their loved ones, and their calling. Slinging a unique blend of spiritual and practical wisdom, she guides women to deepen their intuition, release mama guilt, and experience more ease, joy, and miracles in life and business.
After a decade leading multi-million dollar maternal and child health initiatives globally, her personal journey into motherhood – from burnout to awakening and rebirth – led her to become a sought-after coach for women on a mission to birth more nourishing lives for themselves, their families, and the world. Part strategist and part alchemist, Catarina has supported hundreds of women in the areas of sacred pregnancy, conscious motherhood, and making a divine contribution without burning out.
Catarina is also an international speaker, laughter and kundalini yoga teacher, energy therapist, and best-kept secret mentor to leading women up to big magical things – from changing the world to changing diapers and everything in between. www.catarinaandrade.com

What comes to mind when you envision a woman fully owning her pleasure, confidence, and connection to herself and her body?
When she becomes a complete yes to her highest desires, her pleasure, her ecstasy, her life, when her light becomes so big that people either can't handle it or they flock to her like a magnet?
What emotion does that vision invoke for you? Fear? Disgust? Shame? Powerlessness?
Or does it invoke awe? Wonder? Amazement? Mystery? Turn-on?
Maybe you're like most people and it invokes a little bit of both?
Although the topic of today's episode isn't about how to support those that can't handle a woman fully owning her power…I'd love for that to be another conversation!
Instead, today, we're talking about how a woman can use the jade egg practice to help her say yes to the power of pleasure, confidence and connection inside herself…how she can become a yes to her life by saying yes to her pleasure.
Let me make it perfectly clear, I do not sell sex. I sell empowerment - sexual empowerment to be specific. I help a woman take back the power of her sexuality and use it for HER good instead of letting everyone else take a piece of it to use for themselves.
Because there are a lot of people out there that can't handle a woman fully owning her sexual self…simply because they believe that means they can't control her and who will she be if she's not tamed or controlled?!
Sadly, they are the only ones missing out on the amazingness and power of the wild woman unleashed. Just because she's free doesn't mean she doesn't commit or have boundaries. Just because she's free doesn't mean she has no self-control or integrity. Just because she's free doesn't mean she doesn't want to settle down into a safe and secure relationship with the man she loves.
Her freedom, her sexual liberation, ultimately liberates anyone she chooses to be in relationship with…if that partner wants it. But s/he has to want it.
Join me to today's conversation where I reveal details about my Power of Pleasure Giveaway happening March 5-9, 2018 and how you can enter to win some amazing sensual self care items!!!

If you freeze, shy away from, feel numb or disconnected from pleasure, this episode is for you.
In episode 11, April Kline and I talk about how we can explode our blocks to pleasure simply by connecting and listening to our body.
As a body worker, April points out that we are conditioned to stray away from what doesn't feel good in the body as much as we stray from what does feel good.
We've all been taught that our bodies are something to be ashamed of, to fear, to not trust…that the body's pleasure is sinful even. But in today's conversation, we explore the alternative view – what if the body is a portal to everything we ever wanted? What if pleasure ultimately leads us to our highest good?
We discuss why it is that we're terrified of our own multiorgasmic potential and ecstatic nature and how our powerful sexual nature is a threat to society. We discuss why we freeze instead of flow and how completing stress cycles can help us get past our own blocks to pleasure.
April is an intuitive bodyworker with an extensive background in therapeutic massage, Craniosacral Therapy, SomatoEmotional Release, birth trauma release, Therapeutic Touch and Myofascial Release. She has studied with the Upledger Institute, the Ohashi Shiatsu Institute and is also a Reiki Master and Teacher. April is certified in prenatal massage, newborn and infant massage and is a Certified Professional Midwife and Doula.
She teaches at the Midwives College of Utah in the undergrad and graduate departments and wrote and runs inBalance, a 28-day program that helps people balance their hormones which can help heal their guts, remove brain fog, reduce systemic inflammation, find their ideal weight and regain energy and vitality.
April truly believes that health is wealth. She practices what she preaches by purposefully nourishing herself everyday with healthy food, daily prayer/meditation, regular massage and doing work that she loves.
