In this intimate and deeply personal episode, musician Dan Allen and Tantrika Josephine Lauer come together to explore what happens when sound, spirit, and soul align. Through the lens of their own relationship, they dive into a candid conversation about love, creativity, and what it means to live authentically. Blending musical expression with Tantric wisdom, they discuss how tuning into your desires—both emotional and sensual—can create a symphony of connection and truth. This is more than a dialogue; it's a dance of frequency, feeling, and fearless honesty. We go deep, we get really vulnerable...and some of our shares are a bit X rated, so listeners, please be advised and don't have this episode playing in the car when kids are present.

Meet Chef Greg Christian of Beyond Green Partners and theSustainable Food Institute of America, focused on supporting public institutions (K-12 schools, adult care facilities and carceral facilities) to transition from their current reality of mostly processed food to food that is made from scratch by cooks who care with ingredients that are locally sourced and as sustainably produced as possible. Greg has studied Systems Thinking with Peter Senge, Communication with Werner Erhard, Quantum Physics with Stephen Hawkings, Shamanism with Black Foot Medicine/men/women and Somatics with Marcela Widrig,+ fusing holistic practices into his 40 years of cooking around the globe to form his own methodology and approach to guiding cooks, food service works and lunch ladies/cafeteria employees into more embodied leadership for thebetterment of the communities they work in and the planet overall. Greg's work has touched thousands of individuals, including my own personal & professional life, as we have worked alongside each other for the last 20 years in this field of Food Systems Change. It is an honor to share him with myaudience as he has inspired me in everything that I do, as a mother, as a coach and as a human on this planet.

Step into the transformational world of Tantra with Pleasure Priestess and founder of "Talk Tantra To Me," Leola! In this soul-stirring conversation, Leola and Josephina discuss the meaning of Tantra beyond the bedroom and in an application of authenticity via the spiritual path. Discover how healing your relationship with sexuality can awaken your authentic expression and life force energy. 💫 Leola shares her journey from Midwest conservatism to Tantric embodiment—defining Tantra from the Sanskrit: TAN means "to expand" and TRA means "to liberate." Learn how this ancient practice celebrates your unique path to expansion without judgment. This conversation invites you into radical self-responsibility and authentic aliveness. We explore what it means to be a modern day woman, where the menu of options has shifted - we no longer have to be defined exclusively by being mother, wife or even a boss - we can also be the embodiment of our sensuality and sexuality - and can guide others on how to life a liberated life of fulfillment. Lastly, we discuss the importance of embracing death as a part of life, sharing our experiences from a recent Death Ritual immersive experience.
