Reawakening Love and Power Carol Anne

If you love to create or make art, if you secretly want to, or if you struggle to find the time for it, this is a permission slip and love note of encouragement for you! Creative Mentor Melanie Karlins and I talk about how all humans are creative and why it matters to express what wants to move through us.

You’ll hear:


The broad range of practices we consider creative,
Similarities between creativity and sex,
Medicine for perfectionism and writer’s block
How lying on the floor or staring out of the window are essential parts of the creative process,
Making time to show up for creativity and validating that it matters, especially as a mother,
The necessity and discomfort of setting boundaries for your creative practice,
Creativity as a radical act in the face of capitalism and patriarchy, &
The magic of co-regulation and doing it together.

Melanie is a mentor and permission granter for creative women. She creates spaces where you can let your Inner Artist out to play so that you can enjoy the beauty, magic, and delight that comes from reconnecting to your creativity. Wherever you are in relationship to your creativity, Melanie offers support to help you live your most creative life. Whether you are looking to start a daily art practice, write a book, find a way to share your creative services with the world, or just get your hands dirty with ink and tools and clay and paint, she can support you on your creative journey.

What do two Sex, Love and Relationship Coaches think of Bridgerton season 2 on Netflix? Dear Listener, we are vexed! Bee Slêmanîyah and I tangle with what turned us on and off, the way the characters treated each other, what makes for a good relationship, and the allure of emotionally unavailable men.

You’ll hear:


Why we binged it
Whether Anthony is a f*****y
Harmful relationship dynamics
Society of the 1800s vs. now (we might not be as far as we think)
Response to other shows like True Blood and Twilight
What is being romanticised and is that the message we want?
Attachment styles and push/pull in relationships
Erotic blueprints and sexual tension
Kink & BDSM
Women’s portrayal and options in society
Emotional unavailability in potential partners
Balance between mystery/eroticism and safety/security in relationship
Interpreting your turn on while watching and using it for your benefit
Unrealistic portrayals of female sexual pleasure
Media as a vehicle for cultural messaging
The show’s attempt at racial diversity and inclusion
Turn on gas pedals and brakes

Through Trauma Informed, Somatic, Attachment Therapy and Coaching, in Sex, Love, & Relationships, Bee thrives on integrating shadow and light, bringing ones multiple truths and selves into their authentic dance— of pleasure, play, harmony, and belonging, while savouring all colours of the palette as the sacred and perfect parts of the humxn experience that they are.

From Trauma, Tantra, to Taboo, Bee’s work can be described as radical alchemy; holding spaces which allow humxns to come into their full spectrum authentic selves, and have pleasure based lives of Conscious Sex, Radical Love, and Evolutionary Relationships.

As a kinky, queer, genderfull, BBIBOC, immigrant, parent, and performing artist, Bee loves serving folx with parallel lived experience, in marginalised communities, while also being deeply passionate about working with men, and revolutionizing dating, intimacy, and relating, (for all genders), with singles and in couples.

The Wild Witch Sequoia Glastonbury and I talk about blood magick, and how honouring your blood relates to your relationship with your body, your relationships, and your sexuality. We cover:


What it means to be a witch;
The imprint your first bleed leaves on your life;
Promising ways newer generations relate to their cycles;
The menstrual cycle as a gateway for accepting and honouring your body;
Getting used to seeing your own blood;
Doing blood prayers during your bleeding time, offering your blood back to the earth;
Honouring the inward pull and need for rest during your bleeding time when you have real life obligations;
What to do when other people in your life are not on the same page as you;
How loving your cycle helps you have better sex;
Building belief and trust in yourself when you’re doing something different;
Taking your time on this journey and letting it unfold at your own right pace.

Karlyn Digitalis and I have a conversation about navigating the underworld and the unknown, yoni mapping therapy, integrating your yoni/pussy back into your body, the language we use for our genitals, and communicating with your sexual partners. She generously shares her story through a sexual awakening, birth and a birth injury, and the process of finding her way back to pleasure afterwards.



Karlyn specialises in guiding folk through transformational processes, drawing upon her training in Yoni Mapping Therapy (Bonnie Bliss method), Tantric Bodywork & Sacred Sexuality, Breathwork Mastery, Life Coaching, Yoga and Conscious Birth.



Her work is trauma-sensitive and the focus is on soothing the nervous system, integration of unresolved past events and empowering people to tap into their own healing capacity. Her passion is in creating sacred sanctuary to enable people to touch the divine within and know this as their truth. With almost 20 years experience working in the field of complementary health, she holds the space of profound kindness, understanding and integrity.

Sali McIntyre and I have a conversation about the practice of yoni/vaginal steaming: what it’s good for, how to do it, contraindications, incorporating prayers and gratitude into the practice, and how it works on multiple layers of your being, from the physical to spiritual. We talk about reproductive health, reclaiming authority over our own bodies, the healing power of community and connection, and the ways our Western culture is unwell.

Sali is a certified Arvigo® Practitioner and Educator and Co-Founder of the Heart and Soul of Wellness Centre in Murwillumbah, NSW, Australia. She is a mother, grandmother, trained midwife, Arvigo® therapist, prenatal yoga teacher, birth educator and advocate for women with an enduring passion for birth on every level.
