Have you ever felt disconnected from your body? Society teaches women to shrink, to suppress their emotions, and to separate themselves from their sensuality—especially after trauma like breast cancer. But what if reclaiming your feminine energy was the key to healing, empowerment, and deep self-love?In this episode of Keeping Abreast, I sit down with Sheila Kelley, actress turned embodiment coach and founder of the S-Factor movement, to explore the profound connection between the body, self-image, and healing.
Hello and welcome back to another exciting episode of Can't Be Contained! This week, I couldn't be more stoked to welcome Sheila Kelley to the show, an incredible example of a person who lives a truly uncontained life! Sheila is a pioneer in the art of embracing one's erotic nature to heal and transform relationships. Together, we'll delve into Sheila's journey as an actress, the 25 year celebration of “S Factor”, Sheila's whole life embodiment practice for women, and its' pandemic induced shift from physical to digital platforms. Sheila shares with me stunning details from her documentary, “Strip Down, Rise Up”, and her now renowned Tedx talk. Throughout our “stripped down” discussion, Sheila and I explore the innate power in rediscovering our innate feminine energy, the significance of tuning into the body's intelligence, and the disconnect between cognitive visualization and the embodiment of sensual energy. We sincerely hope this episode inspires you to embrace your body, and find your POWER through pleasure!

Intimacy can be transformative, but what happens when we make it sacred? This episode dives into the raw, transformative power of sacred sexuality through the stories of three couples who've been through it all—breakups, reunions, and those messy, beautiful moments that define a relationship. They're sharing how rituals and shared practices have not only strengthened their bonds but helped them navigate conflict in a way that feels... well, sacred. Whether you're coupled up or just curious about deeper love, this one will make you see connection in a whole new light. When it comes to conflict, these couples are refreshingly honest, offering a glimpse into the ways they tackle tough times together. They'll talk you through some seriously cool approaches to handling disagreements—think “calls to greatness” instead of arguments. It's all about building something that feels safe, respected, and still exciting. They're not just sharing tips—they're giving a genuine look at what it takes to build trust, feel seen, and truly support each other. It's the kind of understanding that goes beyond advice and into the heart of what makes love last. And, in perhaps the most beautiful part, they explore what “home” means in a relationship—a feeling of joy, safety, and shared purpose that isn't easy to put into words but is felt deeply. Whether you're partnered or single, these stories will get you thinking about love, connection, and how we all crave that deeper sense of belonging.

Memorable Quotes: "Get rid of the idea that sex is only about pleasure because sex is about life itself. And so if you want full spectrum aliveness, you have to open yourself into a portal of sexuality that allows you to express the fullness of your being."– Layla Martin "Sacred sexuality is… instead of needing to look outside for that aliveness, you really get to find it in your partnership—and it's because of the partnership, and the safety of your partnership that you get to then go so deep." – Johann Urb "Once your kids... your children come into the world, then you understand the word compromise—because your life changes for them, as well as for each other, because you have to help make each other better parents and be there for each other." – Richard Schiff Where to Find Our Guests: Layla Martin's Website: https://laylamartin.com/ Dr. Baback Amen's Website: https://www.dramenfunctional.com/ Sheila Kelley's Website: https://bysheilakelley.com/ Richard Schiff's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therichardschiff Rachel Pringle Urb's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/positivepringle Johann Urb's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urbjohann To stay connected and to learn more about Vishen and Mindvalley, click on the links below: Website: https://www.mindvalley.com/about YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/vishenlakhiani Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mindvalley/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vishen/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mindvalley Subscribe to 'Mindvalley Membership' to discover 65+ transformational Mindvalley programs – at a surprisingly low annual fee here

172: Healing Masculinity, Sexual Liberation, and Family Reconciliation with Tantra from VICE star Shaft Uddin Quote: “There is so little education around sexual wellness, sexual education. No one really knows how to say no when it comes to... some kind of intimacy; but also, no one really knows how to say yes.” – Shaft Uddin Summary: I met our next guest, Shaft Uddin, at a global event. He had so much "taboo" sacred sexuality knowledge to share during our juicy chat. You see…Shaft is a tantra practitioner and healer. During our conversation, he introduces some eye-opening topics. So, this episode definitely is NSFK (not safe for kids) or NSFW (not safe for work). We'll touch on everything from sexual healing and liberation to making peace with family and embracing masculinity through appreciation of the feminine. Shaft even explains why understanding and healing our bodies, particularly through sacred sexuality, is so crucial. And, of course, he gets personal and tells ALL about his own journey. In this episode we talk about… Struggling with his masculinity as a result of a challenging relationship with his father. Reconciliation with his parents and facilitating healing for himself, his father, and the entire family unit. What is sacred sexuality, and how do we reclaim it in our lives and in our relationships. The fundamentals of tantra and how it relates to sexual liberation, pleasure, and healing. The courage and bravery required to break free from societal norms and judgments in pursuit of one's authentic self. Bio: As a young adult, Shaft Uddin's life was one of hedonism and excess. He went from being the son of a working-class immigrant, to being a super-successful Art Director in advertising, working for some of the biggest brands on the planet: A classic rags-to-riches story. And yet, Shaft was living a double life fuelled by alcohol and drug addiction. He was the picture of success, but beneath the surface he suffered from repeated broken relationships, depression and self-hatred. It wasn't until Shaft had several near-death experiences and alienated most of his friends, that he realized things had to change. Intuitively, Shaft turned to alternative therapies, meditation, plant medicines and tantra. In under two years, he was free of my addictions and had learned the power of self-love. Dedicated to helping people reconnect with their hearts and find deeper connections, productivity in the workplace, and more meaningful relationships, Shaft serves as a trauma release therapist, tantric practitioner, coach, and speaker.

The two most shut down parts of the feminine are your emotions–don't' cry, don't' be angry–and your sexuality–don't move like that, don't be like that." - Sheila Kelley You are in for a spicy treat, loves! I had the juiciest heart-to-heart with Sheila Kelley, the visionary founder of S Factor. We dove deep into embracing sensuality and reclaiming the feminine, a journey Sheila so beautifully embodies. Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of attending The S Gathering in Las Vegas and just knew I had to have her on to share her knowledge with all of you. Sheila EXUDES genuine passion and wisdom, and invites us all to reclaim the most sacred parts of ourselves through her teachings. So, tap into her infectious, transformative energy and prepare yourselves to let the “good girl” out of the box. Because, it's time for us to celebrate our bodies, emotions, and desires with more authenticity, grace, and unapologetic joy! In this episode, we talk about… Embracing sensuality by unlocking the power of emotions in reclaiming your feminine essence. Savoring the slow to find presence and healing in a fast-paced, unforgiving world. Recognizing self-connection and self-expression as keys to empowering your relationships and achieving fulfillment. S Factor® founder, author, actress, and body whisperer, Sheila Kelley, pioneered a feminine movement revolution, launching a brave new practice into a very masculine world two decades ago. Her own soulful journey is a passionate, personal, and scientific study of the feminine body, soul, and purpose. Sheila has been featured on TEDx, Ellen, Mind Valley, Tony Robbins, and Oprah, and is a regular speaker on stages across the world where she is the go-to authority for feminine empowerment, healing and discovery. Since beginning her work and study into the connection between feminine vitality and physiology, Sheila's vision has been constant: A world in which women are deeply connected to their soulfully erotic selves and are able to express every aspect of who they are, freely. Her mission is to lead women on a journey that takes them into the unseen depths of their feminine power through total embodiment. Working with Sheila can be as elementary as exploring and celebrating the shape of your body, or as potent as healing the parts of your body and soul that others (or even you) have shut down. With each and every experience, the goal is the same: To awaken you to your deepest truths and unleash your most radiant potential. Sheila believes that it is every woman's birthright to be viscerally aware of her uniquely alluring and sensual nature. Through this awareness comes the Epic Love for which we all search. It took Sheila too many years of struggle and strife to find and learn how to nurture her Epic Love. With this invaluable insight, Sheila guides women into a deep state of sensual and erotic fullness – because when you have allowed your body and life to reach their most radiant potential, your Epic Love will flow toward you as effortlessly as water flowing downstream. Her carefully crafted approach is born from her experience of ballet, movement physiology, and anatomy at NYU's Tisch School of Arts, as well as her exploration of women's studies, psychology, and female neurology. Sheila is also a certified TRE provider. Connect with Sheila: Follow Sheila on IG @sheilakelleys. Take the FREE Erotic Creature Quiz.

*This episode involves discussion of sex work, sexual assault and racism. Please use discretion when listening.* Jessica Hopper was introduced to pole fitness in the mid 2000's when she stumbled upon S Factor Studio and quickly became an instructor. Throughout her 14 years with the studio, Jessica witnessed countless abuses of power at the hand of the company's founder, Sheila Kelley. With compartmentalization and focusing on her students, Jessica trudged on until the company's reaction to the murder of George Floyd and the BLM movement couldn't keep her silent any longer.

Sometimes, she works alone and has the whole castle to herself. Making matters worse, when she goes home, you'd think those experiences would stop, but they don't, unfortunately. She's had quite a few paranormal experiences at her home too, with more than one entity. One of the entities scares her more than the others, though. She says she can sense when that one is around.On this premier episode of the show, we hope you'll tune in and listen to her share some of the paranormal experiences she's had. If you do and think ghosts aren't real, you just might have a change of heart about that!If you've had a paranormal experience and would like to be a guest on the show, please go to https://www.MyParaEx.com and let us know.Thanks for listening!

Around 2000, Sheila was asked to star in a movie about strip dancing. The film was called Dancing at the Blue Iguana, and it was a really popular movie with Daryl Hannah. During that time, Sheila had to study the role of being a pole dancer, and that is when she found her passion for this art form. Today Sheila has founded an organization called S Factor: Feminine Movement, where she introduces thousands of women to the beauty and the transformational act of movement and dance.

AMD sits down with three women who participated with S-Factor and Sheila Kelley in more than one way. Whether it was teaching at the studio, as a student or as a participant in the recent "Strip Down, Rise Up" movie release on Netflix. The problematic behavior abounds within the culture that is S-Factor, and is shared by Misha, Alyssa and Jessica in this extra long episode. There were many topics to cover and we wanted these guests to have the time and safe space to share this story, as main stream media tends to omit the voices that are the most important. This one will take you on a journey and bonus, there is a breathing exercise at the end.
Sheila Kelley is an actor and the founder of S Factor which is a feminine movement revolution that pioneered pole dancing as both exercise and a means to heal from trauma and wounds, and rediscover freedom and authenticity. She has been featured on TedX, Ellen, Oprah, has worked with Tony Robbins, has presented all over the world and is sought-after authority on feminine empowerment, movement and discovery. A Netflix documentary was produced of her work called Strip down: Rise Up which follows the S-Factor process and the lives of the women participating as they search for authenticity and healing in their own lives. Sheila is quite vulnerable with her own struggles with eating disorders, self-harm, and depression along with more sensual language around her journey and the journey of other women she has coached. If that makes you uncomfortable, you are welcome to wait until next week's episode, but I would encourage you to hear what she has to say as her story is spoken from a place of deep personal experience with the shame and guilt around women's bodies in Western culture along with the tremendous freedom that this movement practice has brought to her and thousands more.

The sizzling Sheila Kelley shared about her journey following her instincts and living her truth, which led her to bliss and discovering her erotic creature. She said that discovering her erotic creature has deepened her marriage and took their intimacy to a whole new level! “When you begin to understand your erotic creature, you begin to understand men, and the men you want to be with, and the men you want to fill you up and break you open and to annihilate you into bliss.” How delicious is that!? Then, we talked about pole dancing! We even got raw and started talking about embracing our maternal and paternal truths and channeling fear into motivation. I just LOVE Sheila Kelley… She has changed my life and so many others with her truth and honesty. This beautiful interview will inspire you to not only find your bliss in your body, your expression and your erotic creature, it will also help you find the bliss in your in pain, your fear... who would have thought that was possible? Allana's Getting Your Brave On Coaching Practice: Find a part of you that you hide, resist, feel embarrassed about, unsure about. The kinky part? Naughty part? Erotic part? Dominatrix part? Dark with Heart part? Then find a song that will invite that part out. Then move. Dance. Crawl. In the safety of your room, literally begin to embody this part. Second, if there is a part of you that is sad, ashamed, guilty, angry, scared, in pain... find music that echoes this feeling and put it on. Don’t try to fix it or change it. Just be it. Allow it. Get to know it without resistance. Just let it be here, now, and let it move. You’ll be surprised that when you stop trying to stuff it away, and give it breathing room, that it transforms into another emotion, then another, until finally you rest in peace. Quiet.

The Answer is YES. Falling apart is a vital part of change. I just got back from SK Live which is a 2-day pole dancing event with Sheila Kelley that centers on feminine movement your body loves. If you guys have been with me for a while I talk a lot about how movement, wait for this, it’s funny. Movement actually MOVES stuck stuff in your body. Stuck emotions, stuck memories, the stuck junk; the heavy stuff; the stuff that weighs us down. So for two days we were moving our bodies AND moving stuck stuff. It was glorious AND sometimes when you move the stuff that is stuck, that you maybe didn’t even know was there, or didn’t want to know was there, emotion bubbles to the surface and water comes out your eyeballs. And sometimes A LOT of water comes out your eyeballs, uncontrollably. This is one way of letting ourselves fall apart, allowing all of the EVERYTHING to come to the surface and acknowledge it and then just LET. IT. OUT. Letting yourself fall apart so that you can come back together greater and more whole. Falling apart is about things needing to change in your life! Letting go of old patterns, old thoughts, old resentments to create space and fertile ground for new growth. Now I just want to point out that sometimes when you are falling apart you may not know what it is about, it is okay, you do not need to. Just let the old go! Check out the video for more on this here: When I was sobbing it wasn't because of a particular story I was aware of at the time. I wasn't sobbing because there was a particular dramatic event that had happened recently. The sobbing was just what my body needed to do in that moment to release the old and stuck. Letting ourselves sob and fall apart can be scary, especially when we have been hiding or stuffing the emotions down deep. Instead of stuffing all of that stuck stuff back down, CHOOSE BRAVERY. CHOOSE to let yourself FALL APART. I chose bravery. I chose to sob. I chose letting go of control and surrendering in the moment.If I can do it, I know you can too! Do you let yourself fall apart? Or do you stuff it back down into the dark shadows? The Quiet After The Storm After the sobbing and falling apart, I realized my sobbing had melted a whole bunch of invisible barriers that I had with my body and in my life. Now I have even MORE access to Living Orgasmically. I have even MORE access to the energies of joy and pleasure. I have more access to all of me. And if that wasn’t enough the sobbing melted a lot of my barriers to receiving from other people. We never know what will show up when we give ourselves the gift of falling apart, but what I know to be true is you will always get more of you, the true you. Did you know shoes can teach us lessons about life AND falling apart? Well mine can! Let’s have too much fun with this next part! Check out my gorgeous dance shoes!! Just as a side-note There is a gift that comes with boots and shoes and high heels; there is an actual energy that gets activated in your body when you put on shoes that your body loves, and with really HIGH SHOES there is an orgasmic delicious sexual energy that gets activated. Treat yourself sometime to at least trying them on, even if you never intend to buy them! Shoe #1-The tall black lace-up stilettos(far left in image) These were the first boots that I ever bought for dance. I loved them then and I still love them now. They're hot, and they make me feel hot when I wear them. They create a lot of yumminess for my body, and I love the sensation of having these holes in between the fabric. They’re also extremely comfortable, and yet they are now falling apart, literally as they shed black particles every time I wear them. I also learned from wearing them so regularly and loving on them that their support was no longer what my body required. I am now ready to let them go. Change is constant and you have to be willing to let go of some things in your life to allow new things to show up.

Today's guest, Athena Rosette, discovered the powerful potential of having an alter ego when she switched identities with her best friend at summer camp. In the years since, she has delved into the topic by using her own alter ego for personal growth while also exploring the various roles that alter egos can play. Alter egos don’t just belong to the villains in superhero movies or comic books. In fact, each of us has an alter ego, although we might not think of it in those terms. I absolutely love the idea of an alter ego, so I can’t wait to share this episode with you! The Mission Log: [05:12] - Athena takes a moment to clarify what an alter ego is for listeners who may not be familiar with the term or may have other associations with the term. [06:24] - We hear about Athena’s earliest experiences with alter egos, which she ties to her childhood in a Catholic home. [08:57] - Athena discusses James Lawrence, an athlete who has done something incredible through the use of an alter ego. Orion then talks about some of her own experiences, both in Japan and India. [12:19] - How did Athena develop her personas? She answers, then discusses the physiological changes that can occur after the psychological changes. [17:28] - Alter egos can be a bridge to the next version of ourselves because they make a safe space for us to have trial and error, Athena explains. [18:05] - What does Athena think about the idea that creating alter egos can create psychological side effects? [19:22] - Athena has one alter ego (not multiple), who she doesn’t name. She talks about her alter ego goddess and her belief that we, as women, are all connected through the divine feminine. [23:29] - Athena feels that there’s a natural integration happening between her and her goddess alter ego. [25:01] - We move onto the role of alter egos in the bedroom, with Athena explaining that this is one of the biggest (and most fun) ways in which people use alter egos. [28:02] - Orion talks about an earlier episode of Stellar Life featuring Jaiya, sharing a lesson about respect in the bedroom. Athena then agrees that it’s important to have boundaries in place before play starts. [29:57] - What are the steps to begin embracing your own alter ego? [32:53] - Orion points out that when you talk to people from BDSM and similar communities, you’ll find that many of the people involved are sweet, kind, successful, and happy to help and assist. [34:08] - Athena shares a story and corresponding lesson for people who are expanding their identity through their sensuality. [35:42] - Orion shifts the conversation into creating an alter ego as a form of healing, sharing some of her own experiences. [39:35] - What are some cases in which Athena saw someone embracing an alter ego as a form of healing? [42:16] - Athena talks about the difference between her and her alter ego, particularly before she started integrating the two. [45:52] - We hear Athena’s advice for women who may have gained weight that they feel self-conscious about or are otherwise unhappy with their appearance. [47:47] - Athena goes into more detail about what to do if you don’t know the answers to her questions immediately. [49:08] - One of the things Orion does a lot with her clients is mirror work, she explains, discussing what this is and how she applies it. [51:55] - Athena shares something that she’s learned through her health issues: the body is a teacher that we can learn from. [55:42] - Orion offers a piece of advice to help with Athena’s condition involving stem cell injections. [58:48] - What are Athena’s three top tips to living a stellar life? Meditate. Don’t worry so much about “getting it right.” Practice loving yourself and being thankful. [60:18] - Athena lists some places you can find her.

Sheila Kelley is the founder of a movement called S Factor which is a sensual movement practice that unleashes the feminine mind, body, heart, and soul. Many women today are locked into their masculine energy in ways that show up in their physical movements, even if their other mannerisms and characteristics are strikingly feminine. This is especially visible in the hips and shoulders, which are rigidly locked in many women instead of being loose, flowing, and feminine. Today, we talk about unleashing the feminine body through movement, pole dancing, and more. Connect With Sheila: Sheila KelleyS Factor@thesheilakelley on TwitterSheila Kelley on FacebookSheila Kelley on Instagram The Mission Log: [02:53] - Sheila gives a brief introduction for listeners who may not yet be familiar with who she is and what she does.

[13:52] - Sheila discusses her ways of infusing love and a sense of sisterhood into her S Factor community. [16:41] - There is nowhere on the planet for a woman to safely and fully embrace who she is, Sheila points out, which is what S Factor aims to provide. [17:43] - How can Sheila help a listener who has body shame? In her answer, she shares a story about her three-year-old daughter. [19:25] - Sheila offers more advice for someone who isn’t feeling great about their body, and she and Orion discuss the importance of movement as an aspect of femininity. [22:36] - Sheila talks about how to transition from the energy of unguarded (and vulnerable) femininity present in her retreats back into everyday life. [25:53] - One of the things that Orion loves about Sheila’s method is that women learn it for themselves rather than for other people. [28:20] - Orion shares a story about her recent experience while driving home from a seminar in San Diego. [29:01] - Can anyone do pole dancing? [31:01] - Sheila points out that part of the job of a leader is to help awaken those who don’t know that they’re sleeping. [32:15] - In Sheila’s perspective, what is the difference between “feminine” and “masculine” energy? She answers, then talks about how to bring one’s feminine side into the business world, which is generally very masculine. [35:51] - If the feminine doesn’t rise, the whole planet will be a disaster, Sheila explains. [36:29] - Sheila talks about the primal circle and the important role of femininity. [38:33] - Orion reveals something she learned on a visit to her family in Israel. Sheila then offers a story of her own about discoveries through travel. [40:52] - We move on to talking about alter egos and the 10 icons that Sheila mentioned briefly earlier in the conversation. She then discusses how making physical changes can also have emotional impacts. [45:06] - Sheila lists the icons or energies that she has been talking about. The five light energies are the innocent teaser, the blissful pleaser, the champion, the lustful lover, and the joyful playmate. The darker ones are the naughty provocateur, the dangerous challenger, the ice queen, the deep soulful siren, and the shy reluctant enigma. [46:33] - Each month this year, S Factor will highlight one of the icons. Sheila takes a moment to talk about the innocent teaser and the ice queen. [49:16] - Sheila talks about the three-year program that some of the S Factor teachers take, and mentions the book Presence: Bringing Your Boldest Self to Your Biggest Challenges by Amy Cuddy. [50:00] - Sheila lists places where listeners can find her. [50:11] - What are Sheila’s three quick tips to living a stellar life? 1. Move your body. 2.
