Alexis & I discuss leaving the hard grind of the hypermasculine and slipping into a slower, fuller, more feminine way of being. She opens up about the night ayahuasca called her in, the decision to remove her IUD after twelve years, and how her libido and emotional depth surged back the moment she started listening to her body again.

We delve into the 10-second rule that draws men into deeper communication, the breath that pulls you out of survival mode, and the kind of softening that makes connection feel hotter, safer, and more genuine.

This is a rich, grounded, sensual dive into desire, self-mastery, nervous system truth, and what happens when you finally let your body lead.

For the 100th episode, I sit down with Courtney Johnson, a branding expert, author, and former ghostwriter who makes personal branding feel like emotional foreplay, rather than just marketing.

We get into the fear of being seen, the cringe, the emotional work behind content creation, and why consistency is the real magic. Courtney shares how an accidental six-gram mushroom trip rewired her life, how psychedelics fuel her creativity, and why microdosing for business sometimes beats any strategy.

We talk manifestation versus action, breaking up with the spiritual community, identifying your value above other values, emotional intelligence in the age of AI, and why building a personal brand is basically training your nervous system to be witnessed.

Short, spicy, a little feral, and perfect for anyone who wants personal branding advice that actually lands.

In this episode, I sit down with Lora Cheadle, former attorney turned betrayal recovery coach, somatic therapist, intuitive channel, and author of FLAUNT! and It’s Not Burnout, It’s Betrayal.

And this conversation goes everywhere: infidelity, identity collapse, somatic grief, self-abandonment, the gift inside the rupture, spiritual downloads, sacred travel, Egypt codes, plant medicine, and the radical art of rebuilding your truth from the inside out.

Lora shares the story of discovering her husband’s 15-year, multi-partner affair… and how it became the catalyst for BOTH of them to dismantle old identities, release generational trauma, and rebuild a marriage on truth instead of performance.

What do you call a pastor who trades Bible verses for breathwork and starts preaching the gospel of pleasure?

In this episode, I chat with Anthony Michael, a former pastor turned tantra teacher, community builder, and “minister of pleasure.” Together, we dive into the intersection of religion, sexuality, and sacred embodiment.

From his 17 years in ministry to creating tantric play parties and a thriving conscious community in Houston, Anthony shares the radical journey of transforming guilt into grace and discovering how sex can be a prayer and pleasure can be devotion.

🎧 Inside:

• What happens when a pastor discovers Tantra
• Healing religious shame and sexual repression
• Why “safe masculine presence” makes the feminine bloom
• How divorce, desire, and devotion became his catalysts
• Finding God in orgasm
• The divine masculine, safe presence, and embodied leadership
• Rewriting your gospel through love, wholeness & desire
• The surprising overlap between theology and sexuality

A conversation for anyone who’s ever felt torn between God and pleasure, holiness and wholeness. Spoiler: they might just be the same thing.

In this episode, I am joined by Kayse Gehret to dive into the transformative world of microdosing for healing — from psilocybin’s subtle power to its impact on nervous system regulation and emotional resilience. Kaycee opens up about her personal journey using microdosing protocols to move through a seizure disorder.

Together, we explore how psilocybin can support those navigating anxiety, grief, and the slow unraveling of trauma.

From dream work to community integration, Kayse and I shed light on how healing nervous system dysregulation through microdosing can open the door to deeper intimacy, creativity, and connection with spirit.

Whether you’re curious, cautious, or already journeying with plant medicine, this conversation invites you to tune into your body’s intelligence and the whispers of your soul.

In this episode, Liv Pavlov, dakini, tantric guide, and sensual alchemist, returns for a third round to explore tantric bodywork. We dive into what it means to be a dakini, how trauma and desire manifest in the body, and how presence, breath, and pleasure can become a form of medicine.
