Unknowing

Over the course of 20 yrs, Kasia Urbaniak was a professional Dominatrix and practiced Taoist alchemy at one of the oldest female led monasteries in China, and went on to receive dozens of certifications including medical Qi Gong and systemic constellations before founding The Academy in 2013, where she helps thousands of women un-know the limiting stories and beliefs that keep so many of us bound.

In EP012, Brie is joined by Kasia Urbaniak to discuss the nuanced and relational dynamics of power, how to alchemize big emotions into creative ends, and how to de-stigmatize desire as we learn to become more comfortable with un-knowing and choose instead to follow life-force moment by moment.

To learn more about Kasia and her work you can visit her website here or follow her instagram account, or watch videos on YouTube.

In EP010, Brie is joined by Emmy nominated filmmaker, Cambridge scholar and contemplative eco-doula, Lindsay Branham.   Linsday describes these facets of her life as rings on a tree...as expressions that vibrate outward from a common center, a yearning to seed a more loving world; and invites us all to similarly re-member (to be more deeply membered to) ourselves, our bodies and the planet as we expand outwardly in widening circles.
