In a matter of weeks, the Sony-produced animated movie K-Pop Demon Hunters became the all-time most-viewed original title on Netflix. A limited-release theatrical run of the sing-along version of the film, for two days on fewer than two thousand screens after it had been available on streaming for two months, was the #1 movie at the box office for that weekend. With four songs in the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including “Golden” reaching #1, K-Pop Demon Hunters has attained soundtrack feats not seen since Purple Rain (1984) and Saturday Night Fever (1978). And the social media fandom for the movie shows no signs of slowing down. On this episode of Hyperspace Theories, Tricia Barr and B.J. Priester discuss the multi-layered success of K-Pop Demon Hunters in its storytelling and in its appeal to fans. Building on longstanding themes of the blog and podcast, we examine the story structure of K-Pop Demon Hunters as a movie that isn't a heroic origin story for its protagonists, and how the character-driven narrative modifies some classic plot beats and character archetypes. Although it isn't an origin story, K-Pop Demon Hunters shares features in common with contemporary Heroine's Journey stories, in contrast to tales based on the older monomyth of the Hero's Journey, particularly its climax in a victory based on democratic collective participation rather than a triumph in combat by Rumi or Huntrix. In many ways, K-Pop Demon Hunters succeeds at developing the core narrative and world-building elements that the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy should have used, but didn't. We also consider other successful aspects of K-Pop Demon Hunters in resonating with so many people. The movie draws not only from its creator's Korean heritage and folklore to tell a story with universal themes like shame and trauma, but also from her experience as a lifelong K-Pop fan to weave in moments and ideas that ring true to twenty-first century pop-culture fandom. The soundtrack itself is excellent, of course, but the progression of lyrics and musicality mirrors the plot and character development throughout the arc of the film. And of course it has an adorable animal sidekick, whose role is actually far more significant and impactful than first appears.

Natasha Nazerali was raised between the material drive of her father and the spiritual awakening of her mother, and from an early age was immersed in powerful knowledge, particularly German New Medicine as a framework for understanding our biology. Her path carried her through childhood therapy sessions, artistic pursuits, rebellion in adolescence, psychic sensitivities, and ultimately the life-altering loss of her father in 2020—a turning point that called her back to GNM and the deeper purpose of guiding others toward sovereignty and freedom in their health.In this conversation we explore the five biological laws, common misconceptions about GNM, and the importance of family systems and “returning to the mother.” We also dive into raising children with GNM, the biological and societal impact of circumcision, and the role of perception in shaping health. At its heart, this dialogue is about awakening, responsibility, and embodying truth and love through our biology and our lives.Time Stamps(00:34) Opening Conversation(06:43) Introducing Natasha Nazerali(13:17) Navigating Childhood and Holistic Healing(23:21) Meeting the Psychic Medium(33:06) The Awakening: A Life Transformed by Loss and Purpose(46:24) Understanding Perceptions of German New Medicine(51:42) The Impact of Vaccination on Personal Beliefs and Community Dynamics(01:03:10) Navigating Guilt and Responsibility in Relationships(01:10:34) Circumcision and Its Psychological Impact Through the GNM Lens(01:15:50) Exploring the Impact of Circumcision on Masculinity(01:28:15) The Sound of Destiny(01:35:22) The Evolution of Understanding: A Community's Journey(01:45:32) Exploring the Intersection of GNM and HomeopathyGuest Linkshttps://www.natashanazerali.com/ https://www.drmelissasell.com/biological-woman https://thegnmweekend.com/ https://www.natashanazerali.com/gnm-homeopathy-course Here for the Truth GNM Foundations Episode 163:https://hereforthetruth.com/episode163Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthSubscribe to Here for the Truth FridaysTake the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramAccess all our links
U najnovijoj epizodi Njuz Podkasta EP203 zaranjamo u epicentar haosa: otkriven je tajni plan Aleksandra Vučića za gašenje N1 i Nove S! Detaljno analiziramo ekskluzivni snimak koji je objavio KRIK i pitamo se da li je ovo kraj slobodnih medija u Srbiji. Pored toga, vraćamo se na uzavreli avgust i proteste "Srbija protiv nasilja". Komentarišemo najbizarnije trenutke – od Vučićeve povrede na staklu i tuče naprednjaka u Veterniku, do viralnih scena sa momkom sa fajtalicom. Zaranjamo u fenomen "Ćacilenda", analiziramo hapšenje Tome Mone i Vesićevu bolest, i ne zaobilazimo sramotu sa pismom Gardijanu. Na kraju, bavimo se opasnim napadom vlasti na Univerzitet i Filozofski fakultet i Đukinom idejom o pobedi "stranačke pešadije".
Send us a textWhat a wonderful time spent with Kerry. Emotional and intriguing. We shared our experiences. I have to say, as a Podcast host, it's about my guest, and in this case, I felt such a connection that it was about "us". "US" as a whole, who sometimes wonder if we had the wisdom when we were younger, if it would have made a difference.I don't usually have one-hour Podcasts, and I was going to edit it to the usual 30 minutes, and I decided not to. To just let you hear Kerry's story and mine too. It was a very wonderful time speaking to so many aspects of life and healing.You can find Kerry at kerryblaser.com on IG @kerryblaserofficial.I had such a great time speaking with Kerry. Wonderful lady and very insightful.Mothers are the internal wound of an eating disorder? Listen to this to find out that that is not really the truth.Support the show

The internet is starting to feel like high school again… The popular girls, the bullies, the fear of saying what you really think in case you get called out or shamed online. In this first episode of my new series Rebecca Reacts, I'm unpacking Laura Henshaw's approach to publicly pulling apart other people's content. I'll be sharing why I take the opposite approach to Laura in her most recent reels, and why I believe her approach is fueling a dangerous culture of victimhood instead of empowering women. But this isn't an episode where I try to convince you to agree with me. I want to use the space to start a real conversation. So let me know what you think - whether you agree or disagree. Comment on whatever platform you're listening to this on, I'll be chatting about it across Instagram, YouTube and Spotify comments, and I'd love to hear your perspective. In this episode, you'll hear: The real reason I think Laura Henshaw targets young men online (and why I believe it's not about “calling them in” at all) Why “victim consciousness” is more dangerous than any “toxic reel” Why doubling down on your truth might be the healthiest thing you can do… Even if it makes you unpopular The Hero's Journey every man must walk (and why you should never criticise a man if you want change) The Heroine's Journey for women (it might explain why you feel so disconnected right now) How to end a fight in your own life, without switching sides or losing the friendship …and so much more. Prefer YouTube? Watch here. Ready to break through what's holding you back and create real transformation? Click this link to book a connection call with my head coach and let's get started.

Nina Knag's debut feature, Don't Call Me Mama, which marks her arrival as a bold new voice in cinema, just premiered at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Crystal Globe competition. She tackles the taboo subject of relationships between older women and younger asylum seekers through the lens of complex, unapologetic female anti-heroes. Drawing from personal insight and the influence of trailblazing female filmmakers, Knag crafts a story where the setting becomes an active force in shaping narrative and theme. She emphasizes the importance of deep collaboration with actors, embracing improvisation and authenticity to capture the complex realities of human relationships. For Knag, filmmaking is as much about the journey as the final cut—each challenge, misstep, and success feeding into a creative process that demands vulnerability, resilience, and a refusal to compromise the heart of the story.Past films discussed include The Hunt (2012, dir. Thomas Vinterberg), After the Wedding (2006, dir. Susanne Bier), Fish Tank (2009, dir. Andrea Arnold), and the short Wasp (2003, dir. Andrea Arnold).What Movies Are You Watching?Introducing the Past Present Feature Film Festival, a new showcase celebrating cinematic storytelling across time.

What is actually happening when a woman begins to question, deconstruct, or leave her religious roots?In this powerful continuation of our spiritual journeys series, we invite Julie Dean Richards to help us explore the heroine's journey — a spiritual awakening that doesn't just seek the God outside, but also honors the God within.Together, we reflect on the feminine path of faith, the courage it takes to enter the wilderness, and how to root into a grounded masculine so we can fly freely into divine feminine wisdom. If you're in the middle of a transition — emotionally, spiritually, or religiously — this episode is a soft, strong reminder: You're not alone, and wherever you are, it's okay.

In this podcast series, we explore the process of spiritual development through the lens of the Hero's + Heroine's Journey, and why both men and women must understand both sides of the journey to fully connect with Christ and God.Most of us have only been taught one part of the story—the masculine path. But to truly walk in spiritual wholeness, we must rediscover and integrate the feminine path as well. This foundation is key to understanding the spirit of Elijah, the restoration of all things, and what it means to walk in divine union.

I la teva aplicació és estupenda."En: "You've worked very hard. And your app is amazing."Ca: A la distància, Montserrat, la competidora més ferotge de Júlia, conversava animadament amb alguns inversors.En: In the distance, Montserrat, Júlia's fiercest competitor, was chatting animatedly with some investors.Ca: Era coneguda per la seva enginy i les seves connexions, i mai s'estava per trobar clients o finançament.En: She was known for her ingenuity and connections and was never shy about finding clients or funding.Ca: La presència de Montserrat només servia per augmentar la pressió sobre Júlia.En: The presence of Montserrat only served to increase the pressure on Júlia.Ca: Avui era el gran dia: la competició de pitch.En: Today was the big day: the pitch competition.Ca: Júlia sabia que les preguntes dels jutges serien dures.En: Júlia knew that the judges' questions would be tough.Ca: Calia impressionar-los.En: She needed to impress them.Ca: La seva aplicació no era només un producte tecnològic; tenia un impacte social únic.En: Her application was not just a tech product; it had a unique social impact.Ca: Això va ser el que va decidir emfatitzar en el seu discurs, enlloc de centrar-se només en les característiques tècniques.En: This is what she decided to emphasize in her speech, instead of focusing solely on the technical features.Ca: Quan va arribar la seva torn, Júlia va pujar a l'escenari.En: When her turn came, Júlia took the stage.Ca: Però dins del seu cap, els dubtes començaven a hissar-se com onades tempestuoses.En: But inside her head, doubts began to rise like stormy waves.Ca: Tanmateix, el suport d'Oriol des de la multitud i una ràpida mirada cap a la posta de sol va encoratjar-la a continuar.En: Yet, the support from Oriol in the crowd and a quick glance at the sunset encouraged her to continue.Ca: "La meva aplicació farà que les comunitats es reuneixin, compartint més del que qualsevol dispositiu mai no podria oferir", va dir, deixant de banda la seva presentació preconstruïda i parlant espontàniament des del cor.En: "My application will bring communities together, sharing more than any device could ever offer," she said, ditching her pre-made presentation and speaking spontaneously from the heart.Ca: Va explicar com un simple gest podria ajudar persones reals en temps reals.En: She explained how a simple gesture could help real people in real-time.Ca: El silenci omplia la sala quan va acabar.En: Silence filled the room when she finished.Ca: Els jutges van quedar bocabadats, i el públic també.En: The judges were amazed, and so was the audience.Ca: Va ser un moment màgic, enriquit amb la força de l'emoció genuïna.En: It was a magical moment, enriched with the force of genuine emotion.Ca: Quan van anunciar el guanyador, el nom de Júlia va ressonar per tota la sala.En: When they announced the winner, Júlia's name echoed throughout the room.Ca: Ella havia guanyat.En: She had won.Ca: El seu cor bategava ràpidament mentre aixecava el trofeu, amb Oriol aplaudint amb força al seu costat i Montserrat mirant-la amb sorpresa.En: Her heart was beating fast as she raised the trophy, with Oriol clapping loudly by her side and Montserrat looking at her in surprise.Ca: Aquesta victòria va canviar a Júlia.En: This victory changed Júlia.Ca: No només li va donar el finançament i la mentoria que necessitava, sinó que li va donar una confiança renovada en la seva visió.En: It not only gave her the funding and mentorship she needed but also renewed her confidence in her vision.Ca: Va adonar-se del valor de perseverar davant els dubtes i la competència ferotge.En: She realized the value of persevering in the face of doubts and fierce competition.Ca: Mentre el vespre feia pas a la nit, Júlia va saber que aquell era només el començament d'un nou capítol.En: As evening turned to night, Júlia knew that this was just the beginning of a new chapter.Ca: Havent conquerit els seus temors i onades de dubte, es va comprometre a seguir endavant amb més força que mai.En: Having conquered her fears and waves of doubt, she was determined to move forward with more strength than ever.Ca: La ciutat de Barcelona, amb la seva energia inacabable, seria el teló de fons perfecte per al seu viatge.En: The city of Barcelona, with its endless energy, would be the perfect backdrop for her journey.

My Inner Heroine: Exploring Feminine Pain by Kerry Blaser Kerryblaser.com https://www.amazon.com/My-Inner-Heroine-Exploring-Feminine/dp/B0F31QQ3PM “Pain is beautiful, because it shows us what needs to be healed.” Universal Wisdom Exploring my maternal pain was both tortuous and exhilarating. I felt every emotion under the sun from shame to fear to anger to pride to love to compassion to enlightenment. I did a deep dive into my soul's darkness, also known as my shadow, to heal from my childhood trauma. I unearthed a vast supply of self-love, self-compassion and self-belief. My shamanic gifts were also “hidden” in there. I had no idea what a treasure-trove my shadow actually is. Inside of my shadow, I am a shamanic heroine. I learned how to transform my emotional pain into more self-love. It's an initiation process where hard, painful work came first. Then, valuable wisdom was my reward. The initiation process for the channeled quote above was excruciating. I had to experience 35 years of debilitating lower back pain first. Only then, was I ready to receive and comprehend that wisdom. This book guides you through the tumultuous process I experienced in order to understand myself and the world around me. I grant you intimate access to explore my emotions, relationships, misunderstandings and epiphanies. I reveal what it took for me to heal from my childhood trauma, become a shaman and experience enlightenment. Hopefully, my story will inspire your own personal growth and self-reflection work. Happy healing!About the author Kerry Blaser is a shaman and a Reiki Master. She has three grown children and a master's degree in East Asian Religious Studies from the University of California at Santa Barbara. She started healing her own childhood trauma ten years ago. Now, she is ready to share the knowledge and wisdom she gained with others as inspiration to transform their emotional wounds into personal wisdom.
It's time for The Feminine Frequency! This month, co-host Jennifer Mulak shares with us her own Heroine's Journey.Jennifer is the founder, alchemist and earth steward behind Cosmic Mother - where she offers a line of botanical skincare, herbal potions, and energy work.She is a healer, a problem solver, an herbalist, flower practitioner and energy worker, a writer, a recovering rule follower, and a curious student of spiritual teachings. She is delighted to make her home in Shokan, NY with her partner, Ariel, and their two rescue pups.As she continues to strip away years of programming and societal and familial conditioning, the plants support her every step of the way. She continues to deepen into connection with Nature and the energy around her, and her own internal guidance.We get to hear about Jennifer's life through the lens of the stages of the Heroine's Journey, from her early separation from the feminine and identification with the masculine to experiencing the boon of success in finance. Jennifer's life on Wall Street started out fun and rewarding, but several years into it, she began feeling its emptiness and yearned for something more. Her intuition and a series of life events led her to plants and a life coach who helped her build a plan that allowed her to begin manifesting her heart and souls dreams. Things haven't always gone as planned. She's had to watch our for patriarchal programming to keep it at bay, but she's quick to catch it and works to keep herself and her life in a healthy balance between the masculine and the feminine.Today's show was engineered by Ian Seda from Radiokingston.org.Our show music is from Shana Falana!Feel free to email me, say hello: she@iwantwhatshehas.org** Please: SUBSCRIBE to the pod and leave a REVIEW wherever you are listening, it helps other users FIND IThttp://iwantwhatshehas.org/podcastITUNES | SPOTIFYITUNES: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/i-want-what-she-has/id1451648361?mt=2SPOTIFY:https://open.spotify.com/show/77pmJwS2q9vTywz7Uhiyff?si=G2eYCjLjT3KltgdfA6XXCAFollow:INSTAGRAM * https://www.instagram.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast/FACEBOOK * https://www.facebook.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast

In this episode, I'm joined by the luminous Lisa Marie Rankin for a conversation that bridges fantasy and real-life reclamation. We explore her viral post, 5 Ways to Become a Romantasy Heroine IRL, and dive into the archetypes these fictional women embody — from the Warrior and Lover to the Sage, Dark Queen, and High Lady. Through the lens of Jungian psychology, sensuality, and sovereignty, Lisa invites us to see these characters not just as entertainment, but as invitations to become the heroine of our own stories.But we don't stop there. This episode also takes us deep into the untamed terrain of the Wild Woman archetype, inspired by Women Who Run With the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés. We unpack why so many women feel a visceral pull toward this primal, intuitive energy — and how to begin embodying it in real, everyday ways. From learning to honor your desires to releasing the “good girl” conditioning that keeps us small, this part of the conversation is all about remembering the truth of who we are beneath the roles we've been taught to play.Whether you're obsessed with ACOTAR, deep into your own healing, or simply craving a reminder that you are magic — this episode is a potent mix of myth, embodiment, and modern-day transformation. Grab your sword, your journal, and maybe a mug of something warm. This is the reclamation you didn't know you were ready for.In this episode, we explore:The five archetypal activations behind your favorite Romantasy heroines — and how to embody them in real lifeWhy training like a warrior starts with tending to your physical body and nervous systemHow sensuality, desire, and pleasure are powerful tools for self-reclamation (not just steamy plotlines)The sacred importance of following your curiosity and studying like the sage — especially in a world obsessed with quick fixesHow to confront your inner Dark Queen and reclaim the emotions and power you've been taught to suppressWhat it means to rule like a High Lady — and how to bring sovereignty into your home, schedule, and choicesA deep dive into the Wild Woman archetype and why so many women feel an ancient, primal pull toward herTangible practices to reconnect with your intuition, creativity, and embodied knowingHow to stop outsourcing your power and start writing your own mythBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Lisa:Instagram: @lisamarie.rankinSubstack: lisamarierankin.substack.comFacebook: iamlisamarierankinWebsite: lisamarierankin.comConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Sign up...

Pastor Phelps preaches a message on the life of Rahab. Message originally preached Sunday evening June 8, 2025.
What if changing the story you tell yourself could transform your identity—and your life?In this episode, we talk about something we all deal with—how we see ourselves, and how the stories we tell ourselves shape who we are. Our guest shares real-life experiences and expert knowledge to show how things like childhood memories and social pressure can affect our identity and daily choices.The conversation highlights how powerful our thoughts and words are. Backed by neuroscience, we learn that the way we think can actually change how our brain and body work. When we start thinking more positively and treating ourselves with kindness, it can lead to real changes—not just in how we feel, but also in our health, success, and overall happiness.The main idea? Your identity isn't set in stone. You can change it by changing your inner story. By becoming more aware of your thoughts and practicing self-love, you can break free from negative patterns and become who you truly want to be.Topics Covered:Rewriting Identity Through Awareness and Inner TransformationOvercoming Negative Self-Perceptions From High School LabelsOvercoming Obstacles to Become the Heroine of Your StoryEmbracing the Athlete Mindset for Personal GrowthImpact of Negative Self-Talk on Body's Stress ResponseCultivating Self-Love Through Positive Mindset and Intuitive LivingIf you've ever felt like food has power over you, I hope this conversation brings you comfort and inspiration. You're not alone, and healing is possible.If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right—eating well, exercising, pushing yourself—but your body just won't let go of fat, there's a reason.Your nervous system is either in Protection Mode (fight-or-flight) or Safety Mode (rest-and-digest)—and fat release only happens in Safety Mode. But if your body feels unsafe? It clings to fat, slows metabolism, and even triggers binge eating and self-sabotage.Think about it. You go through stress, and suddenly you're reaching for food you swore you wouldn't touch. You're not weak—it's biology. When your body is in survival mode, it's wired to conserve energy and seek quick fuel. That's why unwanted eating behaviors feel so out of control sometimes.But here's the kicker: fat loss isn't just about burning calories—it's about making your body feel safe enough to let go.So the real question is—are you pushing your body into Protection Mode without even realizing it? Because if you are, no amount of dieting or exercise is going to override survival mode.It's time to stop fighting your body and start working with it.So if you're ready to Break Free from Emotional and Binge Eating, download my FREE eBook: Calm the Craving: 7 Steps to Break the Emotional and Binge Eating Battle.In this guide, you'll learn how to regulate your nervous system to eliminate cravings, make peace with food, and allow the weight to naturally release itself.Download your free copy here: www.sherryshaban.com/calmYou deserve to experience food freedom, I can't wait to see you inside!Listen to more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe to me on Spotify, iTunes, and YouTube so you never miss an episode!Join my Facebook Community here: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.comWork with me: www.sherryshaban.com/transformWant to go deeper?

Today on the show, Jennifer Mulak interviews Theresa as she shares much of her life story through the lens of the Heroine's Journey. Growing up as a "father's daugher" and identifying with career over motherhood, Theresa assimilated with the masculine, finding masculine allies and often being the sole female member of various "boys clubs." When her planned wedding was canceled, it woke her up to the choices she was making in life and how she had drifted far from the things she was truly passionate about. She talks about the struggles to leave the various patriarchal settings, the status and the financial success of that world, and how her journey to become a mother really rooted her in a reclaiming of the feminine and a return to wholeness. Do you have a story that relates to the Heroine's Journey? Let us know how it resonates for you.Happy New Moon!

I had a last minute change in plans due to a health emergency with my planned guest, but I took that as an opportunity to dig a little deeper into the Heroine's Journey which Jennifer and I will be folding into our conversations on The Feminine Frequency (next week). Here's a rough outline from The Heroine's Journey Project. Let me know if you relate!HEROINE SEPARATES FROM THE FEMININE. The “feminine” is often a mother/mentor figure or a societally prescribed feminine/marginalized/outsider role.IDENTIFICATION WITH THE MASCULINE & GATHERING OF ALLIES. The heroine embraces a new way of life. This often involves choosing a path that is different than the heroine's prescribed societal role, gearing up to “fight” an organization/role/group that is limiting the heroine's life options, or entering some masculine/dominant-identity defined sphere.ROAD/TRIALS AND MEETING OGRES & DRAGONS. The heroine encounters trials and meets people who try to dissuade the heroine from pursuing their chosen path, or who try to destroy the heroine.EXPERIENCING THE BOON OF SUCCESS. The heroine overcomes the obstacles in their way. (This is typically where the hero's journey ends.)HEROINE AWAKENS TO FEELINGS OF SPIRITUAL ARIDITY/DEATH. The heroine's new way of life (attempting the masculine/dominant identity) is too limited. Their success in this new way of life is either temporary, illusory, shallow, or requires a betrayal of self over time.INITIATION & DESCENT TO THE GODDESS. The heroine faces a crisis of some sort in which the new way of life is insufficient, and the heroine falls into despair. All of the masculine/dominant-group strategies have failed them.HEROINE URGENTLY YEARNS TO RECONNECT WITH THE FEMININE. The heroine wants to, but is unable to return to their initial limited state/position.HEROINE HEALS THE MOTHER/DAUGHTER SPLIT. The heroine reclaims some of their initial values, skills, or attributes (or those of others like them) but now views these traits from a new perspective.HEROINE HEALS THE WOUNDED MASCULINE WITHIN. The heroine makes peace with the “masculine” approach to the world as it applies to them. HEROINE INTEGRATES THE MASCULINE & FEMININE. In order to face the world/future with a new understanding of themselves and the world/life, the heroine integrates the “masculine” and “feminine” qualities/perspectives. This permits the heroine to see through binaries and to interact with a complex world that includes the heroine but is also larger than their personal lifetime or their geographical/cultural milieu.We heard music from Cornelia Murr who will be joining me in the studio on June 2nd and playing Tubby's on June 6th.Today's show was engineered by Ian Seda from Radiokingston.org.Our show music is from Shana Falana!Feel free to email me, say hello: she@iwantwhatshehas.org** Please: SUBSCRIBE to the pod and leave a REVIEW wherever you are listening, it helps other users FIND IThttp://iwantwhatshehas.org/podcastITUNES | SPOTIFYITUNES: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/i-want-what-she-has/id1451648361?mt=2SPOTIFY:https://open.spotify.com/show/77pmJwS2q9vTywz7Uhiyff?si=G2eYCjLjT3KltgdfA6XXCAFollow:INSTAGRAM * https://www.instagram.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast/FACEBOOK * https://www.facebook.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast

Today, I interview Joan Perry, who once built a life filled with achievement, only to realize she was climbing the wrong ladder in the wrong building. Outwardly, everything looked perfect—career success, recognition, and status—but inwardly, she felt disconnected from herself. Joan shares how, for years, she followed the path that culture and family laid out for her, without ever stopping to ask if it was truly her own.Growing up in a high-achieving family in the Midwest, Joan learned early on that visibility and accomplishment were rewarded. Her voice, however, was often silenced. In a household where airtime was earned and expression was measured, she became an achiever—excelling in sports, academics, and later, in a groundbreaking career on Wall Street. Yet behind all the success was a deep longing for something more real, something that felt alive inside her.The breakthrough came when everything she had built began to fall apart. A divorce she never saw coming stripped away the vision she had constructed. It forced her to pause for the first time and listen inward. Joan realized she had shaped her entire life around survival, not authenticity. Stability had come at the cost of her true voice. This disruption marked the true beginning of her Heroine's Journey—the journey back to herself.Today, Joan Perry is the founder of The Heroine's Journey and a bestselling author, helping women everywhere reclaim their voice, self-worth, and authentic path. Through her writing, coaching, and her podcast The Heroine's Journey, she teaches that real success starts when we stop performing and start listening within. Her story is a powerful reminder that it is never too late to rewrite the story and become the Heroine of your own life.__________________Joan Perry is a cultural luminary and advocate for women becoming the heroines of their own lives.

We discuss the transformative journey of reclaiming our feminine power by harmonizing the sacred and the sexual.Emily and I cover so much, from the energetic significance of colors like purple and red—trust me, you'll never look at them the same way again—to the importance of being fully embodied and connected to our primal instincts. Emily shares her incredible journey through marriage and motherhood and her powerful work in pelvic integration.We explore what it really means to receive pleasure (and why it's so challenging for so many women), how to cultivate a feminine practice, and how to foster truly healthy and fulfilling sexual relationships.Products Mentioned In This Episode:BioGeometry: https://amyfournier.com/biogeometry/For All Amy's Approved Products: https://amyfournier.com/recommended-products/Timestamps:00:00 Highlight06:14 Welcome Back, Emily Maden!08:33 Exploring Feminine Energies14:54 Gender Confusion and Cultural Narratives24:00 Emily's Personal Journey: Marriage and Motherhood30:51 Reclaiming Female Pleasure and Sexuality44:25 The Importance of Receiving and Vulnerability57:49 The Power of Presence in Sexual Union01:09:37 The Heroine's Journey: Down and In01:12:05 The Transformative Power of Birth and Motherhood01:24:49 Programs and Offerings for Feminine EmpowermentIf you enjoyed this episode be sure to check out:101.
