Shownotes How the losing her greatest love taught Mama Gena about eros What healing truly is (and what it isn't) Why the only prayer in the Goddess tradition is "thank you" What Layla learned throughout two years of ongoing illness Why Mama Gena was thrown out of the cathedral on Park Avenue What Mama Gena wants every woman to feel when she's on her knees Bio Regena Thomashauer, better known as Mama Gena, is a pioneering voice in women's empowerment, a bestselling author, teacher, feminist icon, and the founder and CEO of the School of Womanly Arts, which began in her living room in 1998 and has since grown into a global movement. For more than three decades, Regena has devoted her work to restoring what has been systematically stripped from women: our connection to the body, our desires, our emotional lives, and our right to want more. At the heart of her teaching is a radical truth: pleasure is a form of power. And when a woman is fully expressed – in her body, her desires, her voice – she moves differently. She tolerates less and expects more. The stakes of her life become visible, and she responds accordingly. This work is rooted in lived experience, decades of research, and the real-world results of hundreds of thousands of students. It has changed the way women relate to themselves, the standards they hold, and the lives they are willing to claim. Regena is the author of five books, including the New York Times bestseller Pussy: A Reclamation, and has been widely recognized as a leading voice in modern feminism. Regena's approach is both deeply personal and unmistakably collective. In a culture that shames our bodies and suppresses our emotions, her work serves as a vital antidote that offers not only tools for survival, but a pathway to turn-on, truth, and full-bodied liberation. Her conviction: that the feminine, long suppressed, is the force that will change everything. These teachings don't just challenge the status quo. They transform it.

You can run a board meeting after terrible news, and no one would know. Push through and deal with the feelings later. Or not… But sometimes a situation just takes your knees out from under you, and pushing through isn't an option. Then what? My guest is Regena Thomashauer – known to thousands as Mama Gena – the New York Times bestselling author of Pussy: A Reclamation, founder of the School of Womanly Arts, where she's taught pleasure for over three decades. Her new book, On Our Knees: Loving Your Life Even When You Hate What's Happening, is out now. This is not an episode about leopard print and bubble baths. It's a real, raw conversation about how to switch gears from pushing through to letting big feelings move through you. Regena shares her own story of how she was on her knees on the wings of a Broadway theatre, feeling broken and weeping at what (from the outside) looked like the apex of her career. The super-successful persona of Mama Gena she'd created had drifted too far from Regena. This conversation is about how she reconciled them. If you've ever been praised for how well you "held it together" and secretly wondered what'd happen if you didn't, this one's for you. Links: Regena Thomashauer's website (and books).

In this episode, we're joined by Regena Thomashauer—better known as Mama Gena—to explore the transformative power of surrender, pleasure, and living fully on your own terms. Regena is the founder of the School of Womanly Arts and the author of the New York Times bestseller Pussy: A Reclamation. For more than 25 years, she has taught hundreds of thousands of women around the world to reclaim pleasure, desire, and sovereign power as the foundation of a fully lived life. Her newest book, On Our Knees, invites us to reconsider surrender—not as submission or giving away our power, but as a radical way of reclaiming it. We talk about what surrender really means, why it can be especially powerful for women, and how it differs from silence, submission, or simply giving in. Regena shares practical advice for anyone who struggles to surrender, along with simple ways to reconnect with yourself when life feels overwhelming. We also explore her idea of “hard milestones”—the divorce, heartbreak, illness, and other experiences we often interpret as failures, but that can instead become profound turning points. Along the way, we discuss why pleasure isn't frivolous or indulgent, but part of the real work of creating a meaningful life. Regena offers five ways women can feel more at home in their own lives, practical strategies for getting through the worst possible day, and her thoughts on whether these lessons apply to men, too. We also unpack her distinction between becoming “The Courtesan” rather than “The Seductress,” and what can happen when women stop performing for others and begin living from their own desire and authority. Regena Thomashauer is an icon, teacher, author, mother, and one of the pioneers in the study and practice of pleasure. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Times of London, Good Morning America, and The Today Show. On Our Knees is her fifth book, published by Hay House on August 25, 2026. Prepare for a conversation about surrender, resilience, pleasure, power, and what it means to truly feel at home in your own life.

Regena Thomashauer — better known as Mama Gena — is a bestselling author, teacher, feminist icon, and founder of the School of Womanly Arts, which she started in her living room in 1998 and has since grown into a global movement. For more than three decades, Regena has helped women reconnect to the parts of themselves we've been taught to suppress — our bodies, our desires, our emotions, and our pleasure. At the heart of her work is the belief that pleasure is a form of power, and that when a woman is fully connected to herself and what she wants, it changes how she moves through every area of her life. She is the author of five books, including the New York Times bestseller Pussy: A Reclamation, and her work has reached hundreds of thousands of women around the world. Her teachings are an invitation for women to reclaim their feminine power, raise their standards, and live with more truth, turn-on, and freedom. Today we talk about her newest book: On Our Knees which offers a new map for navigating heartbreak, uncertainty, loss, and reinvention.
Step into a soul drenched, body awakening, and profoundly tender conversation with Regena Thomashauer, founder of the School of Womanly Arts and New York Times bestselling author of Pussy: A Reclamation, on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. For more than 25 years, Regena, also known as Mama Gena, has helped hundreds of thousands of women reclaim pleasure, desire, emotional expression, and feminine power. Her newest book, On Our Knees, invites women to stop bypassing pain and discover the power within grief, rage, pleasure, and surrender. Regena shares the extraordinary journey that brought On Our Knees into the world. Born from six years inside what she calls a death portal, she began writing at four in the morning when the book would wake her. What emerged is an exploration of feminine wisdom, grief, erotic aliveness, and the radical practice of meeting yourself with tenderness. We explore the disconnection so many women experience from their bodies, desires, and emotional truth. Regena explains how women have been conditioned to bypass the full 88 keys of their emotional piano and play only middle C. Her invitation is to return to the body, grief, pleasure, and the erotic aliveness that lives within us. Recorded in NYC, Allana vulnerably shares her in the moment experience of reconnecting with her son after six and a half years of no contact. Together, they practice Swamping from On Our Knees live on air, beginning with Allana's grief and rage and moving into embodied erotic energy as a way to transmute emotion with fierce compassion. We also talk about: Why women have been disconnected from erotic aliveness The difference between the erotic and the sexual Grief as a portal to power, not a problem to solve The On Our Knees Move and how to practice it Patriarchy, religion, and disconnection from inner Source Inanna, Lilith, Aphrodite, and feminine wholeness Children of divorce, rejection, and breaking blame cycles Why listening to your body can be more powerful than listening to your brain Cyclical wisdom and the intelligence of the female body Practices for reconnecting with yourself during difficult times Meeting yourself with tenderness when your heart is broken Erotic aliveness and Audre Lorde's The Uses of the Erotic This episode is a reminder that a woman's body is not the problem. It is the answer. Grief, rage, desire, and pleasure are not obstacles to healing. They can become the path back to ourselves. This conversation invites us to come back into the flesh, feel what is true, and remember that we were never meant to be "fine."

The Orgasm Code: How Pleasure Rewires Your Nervous System for Longevity & Healing | Regena Thomashauer (Mama Gena) Most people think pleasure is a distraction from performance. This episode proves the opposite: your orgasm is a biohacking tool wired directly into your nervous system, your hormones, and your longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Regena Thomashauer, known worldwide as Mama Gena, founder and CEO of the School of Womanly Arts and a New York Times bestselling author. For over three decades she has taught hundreds of thousands of women how to reclaim pleasure as a source of power, and her work has redefined what modern feminism and embodiment look like in practice. Dave and Regena break down the actual biology behind orgasm: the oxytocin, prolactin, and endorphin cascade that shifts the body out of fight or flight and into repair, the role of sleep optimization in processing trauma, and how chronic disconnection from pleasure keeps people stuck in survival mode instead of human performance mode. They dig into semen retention research and its link to longevity and anti-aging, why shame around the body blocks neuroplasticity and emotional healing, and how learning to regulate arousal, rage, and surrender is its own form of nervous system hacking. This is a masterclass in reclaiming a part of your biology most people were never taught to understand, let alone optimize. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, brain optimization, functional medicine, longevity, and building a body and mind that can hold more pleasure, more power, and more presence. You'll Learn: How orgasm triggers an oxytocin, prolactin, and endorphin cascade that lowers cortisol and drives real nervous system repair Why the Daoist approach to semen retention is tied to longevity and anti-aging in men How chronic shame and disconnection from the body block neuroplasticity and keep trauma stuck The link between sleep optimization, hormone regulation, and processing deep emotional wounds How to move rage and grief through the body instead of suppressing them Why relaxation, not effort, is the real key to expanding pleasure and human performance How devotional presence between partners creates measurable shifts in nervous system state Thank you to our sponsors! - ECHO Water | Go to http://echowater.com/daveand use code DAVE10 for 10% off your ECHO Flask. - Suppgrade Labs | Get real restorative sleep with Quiet Mode.

Today's podcast is for women and men seeking a new approach to feeling expansive in their individual and sexual pursuits, and how to use this power in all relationships; friends, family, co-workers, and strangers. Empowered intimacy exploring tantric sex, personal power, and boundaries is a conversation that leads the charge on what we are here on Earth to move forward in, generationally. This quest of sharing how we can start owning our "turn on" or see through a "lens of love" each day of our lives has been my personal experience, and practice, for deepening my own relationship with my sexual expression. Since having had a Love, Sex, and Relationship Coach for 6 months in 2023, where we explored deep wounding, stood at my edge, and reintroduced myself to all things pleasure, I have never felt more confident and clear on what I desire and communicating it with love with my partner, friends, family, and co-workers. This conversation was also inspired by Mama Gina, Author of "Pussy: A Reclamation", and Tantric Sex Practitioner/Author, Diana Richardson, and her book "Tantric Orgasm for Women". Without women learning, feeling, and educating other women on how to cultivate the full feminine expression, we grow up sexually "out of tune", for no other reason than that we are told/shown "how" pleasure is meant to look/sound/be and fall into the despair of body unawareness. It is time to lean into an expansive episode of The Isabelle Wellman Show to feel empowered in your own intimacy. Learn the basic truths about Tantric Sex, how to hold yourself in a "turned on" state as to always be in charge of each moment, and never let your voice be denied when speaking your boundaries. How you elevate those around you is EVERYTHING. You are apart of a transformative generation. How will you participate?

This week the Deja Blu podcast is blessed with the powerful wisdom of Regena Thomashauer — better known as Mama Gena. This magnificent woman brings us the frequency of someone who has reclaimed their pleasure center as the source of their power, and she invites us all into a glimpse of a future world where women have learned to trust in the power of the pussy, and the Earth is much better off because of it. Blu and Mama Gena dive into the importance of sisterhood in the bringing forth of a new paradigm on the planet as well as the practice of swamping as a means of helping us support each other in processing through generations of repressed emotions so that we can make pleasure our default setting. Let us know what resonates in the comments and check out Mama Gena's book "Pussy: A Reclamation" if you haven't already!

She shifts the way women hold their sexuality and identities, both individually and culturally. She creates communities of women who are so outrageously and wildly expressed that they are loving the world back to itself.

Trusting yourself enough to experience disappointment. Setting intentions for 2023. Key Takeaways: Answering the question: What do you have on desire? Cuts through the noise and connects you with yourself. Life wants to surprise and delight us. Allowing the wanting is part of the process.

This episode is so important for women -- and for those who love them. I had the absolute honor and delight of sitting down with the famously beloved Regena Thomashauer, endearingly known as “Mama Gena” and celebrated as an icon, legend, media personality, and revolutionary – and the vivacious author of the NY Times Bestseller called Pussy: A Reclamation. If you are (or care about) a woman who has ever… …felt shame about your body or sexuality, …dimmed your power or light, …and/or denied, ignored, dismissed, or overrode your own pleasure and desires because you didn't think they were important… …oh my goooodness, you are in for such a treat this episode. Mama Gena's mission is all about helping women reclaim what it means to be fully expressed and embodied. She believes that women are the greatest untapped natural resource on the planet, and she has taught countless women to turn on their innate feminine power to create a life they love. Regena's approach stems from decades of research in the social, cultural, and economic history of women, and she has been recognized widely as a leading expert in modern feminism. She has been featured on Elle, Glamour magazine, Newsweek, TEDx, 2020, and countless other media outlets. In her classroom and through her books, she shifts the way women hold their sexuality and identities, both individually and culturally. On her website it reads: “She creates communities of women who are so outrageously and wildly expressed that they are loving the world back to itself.” Big yes to that! After hearing the buzz and excitement about this book a few years ago, Bret I got the audio version and listened to it together on a long road trip. We both enthusiastically recommend it and have since shared it with countless clients and friends. May you – and anyone you love – be served and inspired by this juicy episode and by getting a glimpse into what it looks like to reclaim what it means to be a woman – and to be fully turned on from being alive. ❤️ HELPFUL LINKS https://www.instagram.com/mamagena/ https://mamagenas.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Pussy-Reclamation-Regena-Thomashauer/dp/1401950248 https://centerforthrivingrelationships.com/ https://www.instagram.com/centerforthrivingrelationships/ ✨ MORE ABOUT THE THRIVING RELATIONSHIPS SHOW Christine Eartheart, Founder of the Center for Thriving Relationships, interviews some of the most inspiring luminaries, thought leaders, and researchers of our time to gain their unique insights on every imaginable aspect of how to experience more love, healing, and understanding in all our relationships.

Yep, we are going there. A real conversation about sex without common misconceptions and shame. I have been pretty disconnected from my body much of my life and am slowly dismantling old ways of being and the belief systems that do not serve me. My guest, Allison Carver, has gone before me - doing this work in her own life and now guiding others on a similar path. We blow up culturally approved narratives and discuss taboos that only keep us confused and unfulfilled. The bottom line, many of us have been kept in the dark with regard to our bodies and the power of the feminine operating at its fullest and most engaged. Our Guest: Allison Carver is a certified Life, Mastery, and Sensuality Coach. With 15 years of coaching experience she now focuses on educating women of all ages about their personal sexuality. She operates from a mindset that says, “It's not about age it's about where you are on your self-discovery journey.”Married for 23 years to her best friend and beloved - Allison assumed that the sex life they enjoyed was “good enough.” A number of years ago, she took a deep dive into her own physiology and sexuality, as well as her limiting beliefs, micro traumas, and stories. In that process, she discovered all that still held her back from receiving life's pleasures fully. Allison's life completely transformed and she extends the same to others through private coaching, workshops, and a custom online courses.Allison acknowledges the many explanations for why we have been kept in the dark about our bodies and then challenges the status quo. She is passionate about lighting the path for others with her stories and experience. She delivers much needed support to her clients who value compassionate and non-judgmental guidance."Take my hand, and I will guide you to the light of pleasure."Website: https://allisonjoywellness.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sexwithallisonjoy/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/allisonjoyFBAYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHiQylkuk1tyrI6lgFTnWFg Great resources and people referenced on this episode:Come As You Are: The Surprising New Science that Will Transform Your Sex Life by Emily Nagoski, Ph.D.Pussy: A Reclamation by Regena Thomashauer Your host: Jen Oliver holds space for those who want to elevate and amplify their voice.

Ep 187: Two Female Podcasters Talk About Sex, Layla London of The Curious Girl Diaries & Ruan Willow. Layla went through a dry spell for sex for years and woke up one day with the intention to explore her sexuality and not lie dormant any longer. She made a sex bucket list and began podcasting about her personal sexual journey. Layla is open about sexuality as I am so our chat went all over the topics of sexuality including women's sexuality, sex exploration, sex toys, the value of changing sexual positions with a partner and in solo play, and the different types of orgasms we've both experienced. Layla gives insight into sexual relations and masturbation in how to get out of your sexual rut and stave off the boringness of sex. She shares personal info about her sex life and what she thinks is the best lesson she's learned. She also shares about her tradition of doing March Masturbation Madness Month and how that is so valuable to her. And yep, it's all on her podcast! She also talks about why women should give certain sexual ponderings/doings at least a month of dedication. She says we can reset our brains to become more orgasmic, and she discusses how we as women can do this. She stresses the importance for women to make their sexuality a priority and gives us tips on how to keep our libido up. We chatted about our friends at The T&A Podcast and Full Swap Radio. We also talk about podcasting in the sexuality genre, the challenges, and ideas for success. It was an epic chat and soon I will be on her show as a guest!Connect with Layla London here: https://www.thecuriousgirldiaries.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_curiousgirldiaries/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCuriousGirlLaylaTwitter: http://twitter.com/thecurious_girlThe book Ruan and Layla talked about Pussy: A Reclamation (affiliate): https://amzn.to/3AVLOzuThank you Layla for coming on my podcast!Check out my friends Jason and Sam at The T&A Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-28-sexual-fantasies-kinks-strange-sex-locations/id1576169889?i=1000578208399To connect with the podcast host Ruan Willow: https://linktr.ee/RuanWillow Ruan's new books!

My word for 2022 is JOY. After living through the pandemic, epically burning out last year, and navigating perimenopause fo the last five years, I was needing some joy in my life. I knew I would bee to be conscious about cultivating it, because JOY wasn't showing up on it's own. Over solstice last winter, I shared my word JOY with my witchy friends Autumn and Jendeah and they were like, "Joy, yes, but have you considered Pleasure?" Pleasure? Ummm. no. I'm immediately thinking, "Is pleasure necessary? Isn't it dangerous? I mean, JOY would benefit others. I'd be happier and easier to be around. I'd spread light and love to everyone who came near me, right? I mean, we could all use more joy right now." But pleasure? Pleasure = sexy. Sexy = not me. But I decided to lean in. (I love/hate this quality about myself.) My resistance obviously meant I should get curious. So I did. In this episode, I'm talking with my friends, Jendeah and Autumn - both who are faithful to the practice and experience of pleasure in their lives. I'll be honest, they feel different to be around. They experience the world, themselves and their relationships through another lens - an embodied, rich, present, and pleasurable lens. About my guests: Autumn Youngblood is a pleasure ambassador — she has committed nearly the last decade of her life to exploring, testing, and sharing the transformational power of choosing pleasure. She is the daughter of artists, the mother of daughters, and is currently in a deep transformational process of claiming her sovereignty. She manages a retreat center called Liminalia in the coastal mountain range of Oregon where she loves to welcome friends for healing, renewal, and empowerment. Jendeah Foreman identifies as a Pleasure Activist, Witch, tarot reader, social worker, creative writer, cat mama, and a big voiced, big idea having, outspoken, hilarious, story telling, sex positive, hula hooping badass, tender hearted feminist goddess. Jenn is part of a Pleasure Coven where she meets monthly with a group of women who are dedicated to the ongoing conversation and real life application of pleasure as a guiding light for a happier, more fulfilling and lush life. She has spent the last several years prioritizing pleasure in all aspects of her life. She believes that women fully anchored in the power of their pleasure can and will save the world.

How do you see desire: as a challenge or an opportunity? If you chose the first option, you definitely believe your desires aren't within reach. But don't worry, that isn't your fault. Living in a masculine culture as a feminine person means pushing your instincts deep down. So much so you don't even recognize them. This unfortunately conditions us to feel anger and shame towards our desires, which only pushes us away from our power even more. But have no fear, because there are magnificent women leading a rebellion to honor our womanly desires. In case you missed it, I had the magnetic Mama Gena on the IHML Show to discuss how to take your pleasure seriously. Her New York Times best-selling novel, Pussy: A Reclamation, speaks volumes about the importance of desires to our wellbeing. Not only for ourselves, but other people as well! I felt called to share my essential takeaways from this book that have not only influenced my life but many others, too. Pussy is a much needed reminder that we women are worthy of all we desire. More importantly, we shouldn't feel discouraged by the challenges of experiencing them. Embracing our desire means discovering our creativity, wealth, and knowledge. Mama Gena loves to remind us that the feminine force is responsible for desire, but the masculine takes responsibility in maintaining it. This power struggle is what pressures women to second-guess their power, and all the ways they can express it. Let this podcast episode be the inspirational pep talk you need to rediscover what desire means to you. It's well within your right to experience the beauty of desire, and all the transformation that comes from it! In This Episode: Emily shares her biggest learnings from Mama Gena's book, Pussy: A Reclaimation. What makes a woman a legend? Listen to find out. Why your wants and needs matter most to you— and the rest of the world. Emily shares her life mantras inspired by Mama Gena and Raymond Holliwell. How you can rewire your mind to trust your desires (and strengthen your instincts). The exercises that Mama Gena believes can help us discover our deepest desires. If you struggle to see your desires as reality, tune into what Mama Gena's book says. Why everything leading you to your desires is just as important. The ultimate sacrifice to get what we want most in this world… Do you know the most important part of a woman's journey? The one (of many) definitions of fabulous— and why each woman is capable of it. How listening to your inner child can transform your life! Emily shares Mama Gena's legendary dress story to remind us all we deserve to make our dreams a reality. Quotes: “Every woman's legend must be lived in order to feed the evolution of the world. We will never live our legend if we follow someone else's script or someone else's roadmap, listening to and living our desires if they were a roadmap to our truth is the way we women live.” - Emily Williams (quoting Mama Gena's book Pussy: A Reclamation) “We are all impacted, influenced, and shaped for the better by the radiant power of a woman's desire.” - Emily Williams (quoting Mama Gena's book Pussy: A Reclamation) “When you look at your desires, are you looking at them, feeling ashamed, feeling like you need to hide them, feeling like you're not good enough to achieve them, feeling like if you go for those desires, then someone's gonna be negative, or are you looking at it as you know what the world requires?” - Emily Williams “True desire represents the urge of life, seeking a fuller expression and is kept alive by the continuous expectation of its fulfillment.” - Emily Williams (quoting Raymond Holliwell quoted by Mama Gena) “I'd love for you to think about a time when you actually followed a crazy desire, but it ended up working in your favor. We all have stories like that.” - Emily Williams “I believe the word ‘desire' is much stronger than the word ‘want'.” - Emily Williams “Feeling turned on at the thought of a desire sends an energetic vortex of attraction out into the world.” - Emily Williams, quoting Mama Gena “We [women] are designed to rupture in order to continually shed the skin that no longer fits us.” - Mama Gena as quoted by Emily Williams “The problem is that we women are so deeply wounded by the masculine culture in which we've been raised.” - Emily Williams (quoting Pussy: A Reclamation) Links & Resources: Follow the I Heart My Life Show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i-heart-my-life-show/id1569047758 Subscribe to the I Heart My Life Show on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/1Zw6fI37FrfVjZMXlMiZZ6 Connect with Emily: Emily Williams Website https://emilywilliams.com/ Emily on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/emilywilliams/ I Heart My Life Website https://www.iheartmylife.com/ I Heart My Life on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/iheartmylife/ I Heart My Life on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/iheartmylifenow I Heart My Life on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/i-heart-my-life/ Join the IHML community to receive exclusive announcements and tips. https://www.iheartmylife.com/newsletter Email: info@iheartmylife.com Find Mama Gena: Mama Gena Website https://mamagenas.com Mama Gena Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mamagena/ Mama Gena's book Pussy: A Reclamation https://mamagenas.com/books/?utm_campaign=social&utm_source=instagram

Does desire drive you to live authentically, or are you afraid of unleashing that power within? Has your conflicted want for visibility become the bane of your existence, driving you utterly mad with confusion and fear? What would be possible for you if you nurtured that divine feminine energy? You would not believe the positive change you can create for yourself (AND other women) by listening to your desires. I'm thrilled to have the riveting and wise Regena Thomashauer onto the IHML Show, also known as motherly media personality Mama Gena! I've been a fan of her work for some time now, implementing her own magnificent teachings and tricks into my own life! Her book Pussy: A Reclamation was an influential read of mine; it certainly has been for many other women! This bell-selling author navigates us through the monumental journey of feminine empowerment through pleasure, sexuality, and healthy doses of self-expression! Wouldn't you agree that womankind's best stories begin with difficulty? Mama Gena certainly likes to think so! She begins by bringing us back to her earliest times of struggle, and how her encounters with the ethereal feminine presence sparked a “delicious feeling” in her. This is the inspirational catalyst for Regena's entire movement! Through her own experiences, Regena evolves into an authentic advocate for the essence of womanly instinct: desire. Through fashion and friendship, she instills in us that we all possess a need to be seen for who we are. More importantly, how (and why) we shouldn't feel guilty striving to do so! Regena also divulges the origin story of how she connected with her Mama Gena persona, providing the first steps WE can take to explore that similarly powerful version of ourselves! This is the grounding for her entire educational vortex of thinking, being, and doing! Mama Gena teaches us that when women satiate their wants at every level, they uncover legendary gifts. She excitedly rants to us that generosity is one of the infinite ways a woman can inspire the people around her (which I absolutely loved). However, it is our womanly responsibility to trust our energy so that we establish a safe, supportive space for other women to discover that same enlightenment! Absolutely incredible, isn't it?!?! I love how Regena tells us how she's personally steered through belief systems in religion that shame or invalidate the nature of the divine feminine. As someone who grew up in a religious background, it was personally difficult for me to overcome negative criticisms of feminine desire. Gena advises us to enjoy the immortal spirit of earth's feminine beauty as a way of connecting to our individual spirituality- and eradicate those feelings of shame! This episode is to remind you that dressing up and stepping out is more than just a lively outing. Under the surface of womankind's vibrantly alluring expressions, it's really about embodying creative truth. But in order to get there, we have to dig deep through the wardrobe holding our innermost expressions and wear those pieces of us with unapologetic confidence! For those of you out there struggling to begin that journey of divine empowerment, Mama Gena is here to prove to you that leaning into your innate self is the perfect guide to getting there. And more importantly, you are the leader of this amazing adventure- so navigate YOUR way! In This Episode: [0:05] The provocative Mama Gena admires the legendary narrative of womankind by revealing face-to-face encounters with adversity that inspired her feminine power! [6:22] Mama Gena shares a story from her book Pussy about fully stepping into her authenticity- and how to hold that space for other women to do so as well. [15:33] Hear Mama Gena dive deep into how women magically inspire the human desire through their own precious wants (and needs). [17:50] Emily shares a beautiful, momentous quote made by Mama Gen herself! [18:52] Regina responds by divulging into the first fundamental steps to tapping into our desires! [23:55] Listen as Gena emphasizes how and why we should center our daily lives around our self-care! [26:09] Gena shares her practices that not only honor her boundaries, but protects her pleasure and aliveness. [31:16] Tune into what Mama has to say about women channeling, authenticating, and connecting to their real selves through experimental expression. [36:35] Mama Gena explains why it's crucial women take their pleasure seriously to maximize its impact on their truth (and other people's as well)! [38:49] Gena explains her experiences with religion and how she navigates their belief systems surrounding sexuality, pleasure, and divine energy. [42:55] How do women express their innate generosity? Mama Gena can count the ways! [43:50] Mama Gean tells us how to begin living a life beyond our wildest dreams by allowing our deepest longings to illuminate our journey there! Quotes: “I would say all really good stories start with women. It starts with a rupture. You know, there is no really great tale of a woman becoming who she is in the world that doesn't start with some kind of profound rupture or difficulty or challenge, like the best stories are made of that.” - Mama Gena “I learned that the goddess lives in the periphery and I got hell bent on finding her.” - Mama Gena “As women, we have so much self criticism that takes the place of our ownership of our feminine majesty and miraculousness. I was just kind of desperate to find a way to live the fullness of who I was as a woman.” - Mama Gena “It was through the discipline of pleasure that I encountered the divine feminine that I'd always been looking for, literally in my own reflection. It's pleasure that allows me to see the goddess in me. [I was like] I've got to tell women about this because it's the greatest, best kept secret of our generation!” - Mama Gen “I wanna say to you dreamers out there: put together your dream team. Have people who see you, who believe in you, who stand for you because it makes all the difference in the world. When you falter and waiver, to have beloved friends say, “You got this kid, you can make this happen. This dream is not too big for you…” that makes all the difference in the world between a woman being able to stand for her truth and stand for her desires.” - Mama Gena “There is no desire that is inconsequential. It is. It's the way we hold hands with the goddess, how the goddess presents herself on this earth through our longings and [through our] desires. So there is no desire that is frivolous or unimportant. Every single one of your desires is so, so precious.” - Mama Gena “When a woman is turned on she's herself, meaning she's more likely to say her truth, stand up for herself, speak, whatever her values contribute. And we [the world] require that like right now, the masculine and the feminine are really at an imbalance.” -Mama Gena “[Generosity is] kinda the nature of women, right? When we find something wonderful, whether it's a great movie or a great show on Netflix or a great recipe, or a great bath oil, the first thing we wanna do is tell all our girlfriends!” - Mama Gena “By surrendering to your deepest longings and desires because your desires will take you places you could not even dream or imagine. And that is the key to really live an unimaginable life, to just tune in to what you most deeply long for. And you will have an ever unfolding, expanding adventure!” -Mama Gena Links & Resources: Follow the I Heart My Life Show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i-heart-my-life-show/id1569047758 Subscribe to the I Heart My Life Show on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/1Zw6fI37FrfVjZMXlMiZZ6 Connect with Emily: Emily Williams Website https://emilywilliams.com/ Emily on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/emilywilliams/ I Heart My Life Website https://www.iheartmylife.com/ I Heart My Life on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/iheartmylife/ I Heart My Life on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/iheartmylifenow I Heart My Life on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/i-heart-my-life/ Join the IHML community to receive exclusive announcements and tips. https://www.iheartmylife.com/newsletter Email: info@iheartmylife.com Link to Email: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oASRiDu64aWz1trG9o_OyIhrqn_GZW0mg3MtIF-uPCw/edit
Hey Brave Table fam, and welcome back for another super juicy episode. My guest today is Regena Thomasauer, also known as Mama Gena. She is a teacher, a mama, the New York Times best-selling author of Pussy: A Reclamation, and Founder and CEO of The School of Womanly Arts, which began in her living room in 1998 and has since turned into a global movement. Above all else—Regena believes that women are the greatest untapped natural resource on the entire planet. What you'll get out of this episode… - A brief history of the divine feminine and how we moved from a matriarchy into a patriarchy - Why now is the best time to be living on this planet as a woman - The importance of pleasure in connecting to your deepest desires - The life of the Courtesan, why it was so important, and how the women's movement ended it - Why women need to fill up on pleasure as much as they can and use the lens of pleasure to reach a different paradigm - Tips to practice sensuality and self-pleasure so you can flood your body with feel-good hormones and turn on your radiance - Giving yourself permission to connect with your life force - The art of the turn-on and turning yourself on - Why you should always follow your desires, even when it leads to unexpected places - And much, MUCH more Regena's story starts with childhood abuse. From the time she was 5 years old, she remembers feeling drained, disconnected from herself, and as though she didn't have enthusiasm for the day. She recalls being in her bed and seeing a goddess sitting on the edge of it in her peripheral vision. But every time she would turn to look at it, it would disappear. Regena longed to find her goddess. Later in life, in her 20s, she researched ancient goddess traditions and learned about the matriarchal societies of the past to find out why the feminine was missing in our modern day. Then one day at University, she got an assignment asking her to prepare as if the most important person in the world was coming for a visit (which, turns out, that's you!). As women, we're always taught to take care of our partners, our kids, our parents—but never of ourselves. So with this assignment, Regena pampered herself for the first time... ever. She looked in the mirror in a state of pleasure and finally awakened the inner goddess she had been searching for. This was the moment that would change everything for her, realizing that this goddess is within every woman and that pleasure is the key to revealing it. The reality is that we are witnessing global unhappiness among women right now. 1 in 4 women will experience depression, and only 1 in 5 will seek treatment. There are eating disorders, an alarming level of self-harm, and built-up resentment. Despite all of the gains women have made, we are still a bit lost. But ladies, what if you could reclaim your power by exploring your sensuality and understanding what pleases you—instead of what pleases other people? Your freedom lies in following your desires; that's your life force talking to you. It's time we all find our inner goddess and lead lives of pleasure.

Feminine energy and masculine energy are anything but gendered. On this episode, I'm diving into the differences between feminine and masculine energy, receiving energy versus pursing energy, and, of course, how to harness your feminine energy.

This week I share my experience of listening to Regena Thomashauer's book entitled Pussy: A Reclamation. When I put the title into my podcast hosting site, I was notified there was profanity in the title and I might get rejected by some platforms so I took out the 2 s's. I have marked the podcast as being explicit so if you're easily offended, you have been notified. The feminine has been defiled, annihilated and ignored for over 5000 years. Regina Thomashauer, the author of the book, is on a mission to change that and empower women to own their sensuality. When a woman orgasms her body is flooded with nitric oxide which raise her level of consciousness and allows her to view the world with joy. Here then is an exciting path to conscious evolution that is possible with the feminine. Remember, men have the feminine within them as well, and we, as women can help them to tap into that power. But first we must unlock our own. Please rate and review on Apple or Spotify so they will push out the podcast to a wider audience. You can also go to my podcast website at www.consciousevolutionhubpodcast.com and send me a message or request to be on the show. Thank you for your support. It means so much to me! Dawn

Neuro*Queering: Beyond the intersection of Neurodiversity and Queerness
Note: There is a brief audio issue where you will hear an echo ("pussy, pussy, pussy") and feedback, but it is quickly resolved. Thank you for your understanding. Did I mention I hate tech and fired my editor? LOL! My guest today is Sherysse Morris, a pleasure goddess and a feminine embodiment coach. She and I begin by diving into our love of pussy-the book, of course. Pussy: A Reclamation by Regena Thomashauer unleashed something in both of us and we have both created careers around the theme of the book-pleasure. Sherysse shares how the book helped her embody the feminine after a traumatic upbringing, learning where she feels stress or pleasure in her body. Now she talks to her pussy (her personal GPS and inner knowing) when she makes a decision or asks herself what she desires. And when a "no" comes up, she makes sure it is an EMPOWERED NO...or a delighted expansive YES! Sherysse and I share how our ideas around relationship structure and dreams have evolved over time. She describes the thrill of her new open relationship and I talk about the liberation I have organizing my refrigerator in a non-traditional way. Ok, she might be experiencing more pleasure than I am in this phase of our lives. LOL! Sherysse guides women through a solo goddess journey and encourages them to embody the present moment, rather than worrying needlessly about the future (busted!). She focuses on trusting your inner knowing, surrendering, and the art of giving and receiving pleasure and compliments. Me: "Sherysse, you are a gorgeous goddess."Sherysse: "Thank you, it's true"You can find Sherysse here: sologoddess.comIG @Sheryssemichelle and @thesologoddessPlease reach out or take me up on my free coaching session.
