To know your body is to know your pleasure points, but intimacy is different
To vulnerability and imperfections and not sugarcoating uncomfortable topics… happy holidays!
In this rushed episode {sorry} things as natural as breathing can go a long way
Role-play, masculine, feminine and what that could lead to.
What we hope they DON'T mean, consensual sex, social responsibility and values.
There are three sides to a story: my side, your side and the truth!
Disconnected and being present “in” your body in private intimate moments of your life
“The world is what it is, and you are what you are. “ The Last Don
Gays, lesbians, bisexuals…call it what you want but there's more to “being in the closet” than sexuality
Unlike my previous episodes, I twisted some of the facts in this story but the bottom line is always the truth. Enjoy!
The discussion of sex, religion and culture is an ocean, and this episode is just a drop in that ocean
I happen to know a useful technique that is a game changer when you meet someone who makes you swoon …buckle up before you fall all over yourself….
The good news is we are ALL manipulators! But try to be a conscious one, don't be a d!ck…
Flow with me briefly on culture, certifications and a mindful exercise that helps me avoid eating and spending money out of boredom (courtesy of life coach Ruta Bublyte whose many certifications include live workshops with the great Dr. Joe Dispenza, for those interested in reaching out to her Ruta.bublyte@gmail.com )
What's your superpower? Mine is my shorthair
If you are scared of what comes next after this life, you are not alone....the bad news is no one knows, but that's also the good news... so buckle up and hold tight.
To Woof, who took a piece of my heart to the afterlife ....
Passion is a mood. Consistency on the other hand can change your life.
In Arabic we say “anything that exceeds the norm will not serve us”, our gut {if we listen to it} does not enjoy excess.
What's meant for us will come to us effortlessly, what isn't will require a ton of work. Here is my story on how I tried to control the universe, it let me...then taught me.
Not getting what my heart really wanted meant I had to show up for myself better and love harder.
Every one of us has fallen guilty of holding someone else responsible for our insecurities, wounds and lack... I did and I called it proudly the L word. ***Disclaimer: the wedding was in 2019, it sounded like I said 2009.
Love can not be built on fear, this is why I believe we have been taught the Islamic religion the wrong way...
We are all one and the same; I am you, and you are me. Unless you're a d*ck then I'm not you.
If only every woman could own her sexuality. How empowering would that be? Just like wellness in episode one, we need to normalize sexuality first within ourselves.. and hopefully one day in our culture too.
“Fight or flight” was my survival mode in my 20's and early 30's. Unfortunately the more disconnected you become with yourself the less you know who you are.
A a shot of whiskey to loosen up came in handy after I recorded this episode... but my WHY to get started was more important than perfection. Here is my WHY unfiltered and raw.
