Sex Ritual Radio

Rose Heartsong

Sex Ritual Radio is where intimacy, communication, and embodiment become sacred pathways to healing and aliveness. Hosted by Rose Heartsong, Certified Intimacy Coach, Somatic Guide, and Sacred Intimate, this show invites you into the living edge of love, desire, and conscious relationship. Through soul-nourishing conversations on conscious partnership, erotic polarity, somatic awareness, sacred intimacy, conscious kink, and holistic living, we remember that healing does not happen through avoidance or performance. It happens through presence. Sex Ritual Radio is a space for raw truth, emotional depth, nervous system attunement, and embodied wisdom. A space where the masculine and feminine are reimagined for the New Earth, where devotion replaces domination, and desire becomes a force for transformation. Here, passion is medicine. Presence is devotion. And how we love is how we touch the divine.

    052. What is the difference between Sexual, Erotic & Sensual Energy? With Damiana Loves

    What Is the Difference Between Sexual, Erotic & Sensual Energy Most people think pleasure, intimacy, and orgasm only mean one thing. This episode breaks that open. This week on Sex Ritual Radio, Rose Heartsong sits down with Damiana Loves, known as The Orgasmic Oracle, to untangle three energies most people have never separated: sexual energy, erotic energy, and sensual energy. Rose Heartsong is an intimacy and erotic intelligence coach, somatic kink practitioner, and host of Sex Ritual Radio on KXFM 104.7, Laguna Beach's community radio station, airing live every Sunday night. Damiana Loves teaches the Orgasmic Life Method, guiding people into harnessing orgasmic life force energy as a daily practice, not something confined to sex or the bedroom. Damiana breaks down sensuality as the doorway to everything else: the practice of slowing down enough to actually feel, through smell, taste, touch, sound, and sight, rather than rushing toward a peak. She shares how healing a debilitating spinal injury deepened her relationship to this same life force energy, and how sexual energy (the primal charge toward release) and erotic energy (presence and aliveness, with or without sex) are related but distinct experiences most people never learn to tell apart. The conversation gets personal and specific. Rose and Damiana talk about self-pleasure as a devotional practice rather than a quick release, why most women have only ever learned to orgasm one way, the real difference between not wanting something and not saying so, and why women taking ownership of their own pleasure changes the entire dynamic of a relationship. They also get into consent culture directly: why checking in matters more than performing confidence, and why a fantasy of being taken has to be built on real agreements, not assumptions.  Learn more from Damiana Loves at damianalovesyou.com, on Instagram at damianalovesyou, and on YouTube at The Orgasmic Oracle.

    051. What a Sex Coach Actually Does (And Why I Do It)

    Everyone asks me the same two questions. How did you get into this work? and  What does a sex coach actually do? Tonight I answer both, unscripted, for the first time ever, anywhere. This is Rose Heartsong, host of Sex Ritual Radio on KXFM 104.7, Laguna Beach's community radio station, airing live every Sunday at 9pm. Tonight is a solo, free-riffed episode with no notes, because some stories can't be scripted. I trace the real throughline of my life: growing up sovereign and self-named, homeschooled and obsessed with learning, taught consent as a young child by my mother in a way that let me use my voice when it mattered most. I talk about a health crisis that started at 12 years old and forced me into an intense, early relationship with my own body, boundaries, and consent, long before I ever called myself a coach. I talk about losing my mother young, a one-way ticket to Thailand, silent meditation retreats, and the training at Agama Yoga in Koh Phangan that cracked open my understanding of tantra, embodiment, and sacred sexuality. I talk about Burning Man, an abusive relationship that took my sovereignty and nearly broke me, and the exact moment that pain turned into the decision to get trained and become the coach I needed back then. Then I break down, plainly, what an intimacy and erotic intelligence coach actually does. Not touch. Not demonstration. Not therapy. I work with the patterns underneath a couple's or an individual's intimacy, the nervous system, the communication, the desire that's never been said out loud, and I help people become owners of their erotic energy instead of slaves to it. This episode is raw, personal, and unfiltered.

    050. The Art of Listening- How to Make Anyone Feel Heard & Understood with Cameron Barbarick

    Most people aren't listening to you. They're listening to themselves, thinking about what they want to say next. This week on Sex Ritual Radio, Rose Heartsong sits down with Cameron Barbaric, a communications coach and relational intelligence expert, to break down why so many of us think we're good listeners and aren't, and what it actually takes to make another person feel fully heard. Rose Heartsong is an intimacy and erotic intelligence coach (often called a sex coach), somatic kink practitioner, and host of Sex Ritual Radio on KXFM 104.7, Laguna Beach's community radio station, airing live every Sunday night. Cameron defines relational intelligence as listening in a deep, attuned way that gives another person the felt experience of being heard, seen, and understood. He explains why traditional communication training, focused on how you look, sound, and perform, falls apart the moment things get stressful, because we don't rise to the level of our technique, we fall to the level of our nervous system capacity. Rose and Cameron dig into the difference between listening to respond and listening reactively from your own internal dialogue, using a real coaching example of a man who thought he was listening to his girlfriend and was actually just formulating his next line. The conversation moves through some of the most useful frameworks either of them teaches: why 93 percent of communication is non-verbal (the same word said two different ways carries two completely different meanings), the difference between the masculine instinct to fix and the feminine instinct to feel, and why understanding a partner's hormonal cycle changes how you listen to them. They talk through the salt and the salve, an analogy from The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz, and how every person gets to choose which one they bring into a hard conversation. Rose and Cameron also get personal. Rose shares her own pattern of poking the bear in past relationships, a pattern she learned from watching her parents, and the exact moment two and a half years ago when she chose not to poke anymore. Cameron walks through several of what he calls the major breakdowns of communication: misplaced righteousness, manipulation, violent communication (including passive aggressive withholding), gossip, dishonesty, and distracted listening, and gives a simple 30 second rule for catching a trigger before it becomes a spiral. They also get into sovereignty versus codependency, why codependent energy flatlines erotic charge in a relationship, and the concept of frog farming from Allison Armstrong's The Queen's Code. Rose closes the conversation by tying it back to her own work: how she teaches deep listening as an embodied, even kinky practice with the men she coaches, and why presence, not technique, is the real skill underneath good sex and good communication. What you'll learn in this episode What relational intelligence actually means and how it differs from typical communication training Why nervous system capacity, not technique, determines how well you communicate under stress The difference between listening to respond and listening from reactivity Why 93 percent of communication is non-verbal, and how tone alone changes meaning The salt and the salve: how to soothe a partner instead of escalating conflict Sovereignty versus codependency, and why codependency kills erotic charge The 30 second rule for catching a trigger before it becomes a fight Several of the major breakdowns of communication: misplaced righteousness, manipulation, violent communication, gossip, dishonesty, and distracted listening What frog farming means and how women unintentionally do it to men How deep listening can become an embodied, even erotic practice 0:00 Intro and welcoming Cameron Barbaric 2:00 What relational intelligence actually means 5:00 Why technique fails and capacity is what matters 8:00 Listening to respond versus listening reactively 10:30 Case study: the couple who felt unheard 14:00 Why 93 percent of communication is non-verbal 16:30 Masculine fixing versus feminine relational listening 19:00 Understanding the female hormonal cycle in communication 21:00 The ping pong problem and communicating desire safely 23:30 The Mastery of Love: the salt and the salve 26:30 Sovereignty, codependency, and erotic charge 29:30 The feminist movement and a generational shift in relationships 32:30 The 30 second rule for catching a trigger 35:00 Communication breakdowns: misplaced righteousness and manipulation 37:00 Violent communication and poking the bear 39:30 Gossip: when it protects and when it destroys 42:00 Dishonesty versus lying 43:30 Distracted listening and the practice of presence 45:00 Rose's story: the night she stopped poking the bear 47:00 The Queen's Code and frog farming 48:00 Listening as an embodied, kinky practice 49:00 Where to find Cameron https://mysacredstage.com/  ✨ Resources & Special Offers ✨ 🌹 Explore more at www.roseheartsong.com 🛏 Splash Blanket - 10% off with code ROSEHEARTSONG → https://splashblanket.us/

    049. Sex, Psychedelics & Surrender- A Crossover of Inner Journey with Greg Friedman

    What happens when a plant medicine guide and a sex coach swap microphones for two hours? This is that episode. Rose Heartsong was a guest for the full hour on Inner Journey with Greg Friedman, and immediately after, Greg came on as her guest for the full hour on Sex Ritual Radio. This is that back to back conversation, recorded live on KXFM 104.7, Laguna Beach's community radio station. Rose Heartsong is an intimacy and erotic intelligence coach (often called a sex coach), somatic kink practitioner, and host of Sex Ritual Radio, airing live every Sunday night. Greg Friedman is a ceremonial guide who has spent decades studying with indigenous elders around the world and hosts Inner Journey, airing right before Rose's show on the same station. In the first hour, Rose and Greg get into the nervous system's role in desire and arousal, why porn is functioning as sex education for kids as young as 11, and the direct link researchers are finding between screen habits and rising erectile dysfunction in young men. Rose breaks down a simple framework she teaches clients for building better sex: separating intention from desire, why so many people freeze when asked what they actually want, and how to use a safe word (red, not a made up phrase) to stop anything, anytime, no questions asked. They also cover the 7/33/60 rule of communication, why breathwork, specifically rotational breath with a partner, changes the entire experience of sex, and why chasing the orgasm is usually what gets in its way. In the second hour, the roles flip. Greg tells Rose about decades spent doing ceremony with Shipibo elders in the Amazon, Aborigine elders in the Outback, and the Native American Church, and why he treats plant medicine as a GPS rather than a shortcut. They talk through the difference between resistance and surrender during a psychedelic journey, why integration after a ceremony matters as much as the ceremony itself, and Rose shares her own history with mushrooms, acid, and peyote and how it shaped her relationship with her body and her work. The conversation moves into some of Rose's core teaching territory: existential kink, using consensual kink and sensation play to alchemize shadow material instead of repeating unconscious pain, and a real story of guiding a client through Shibari rope work to help her practice surrender in her body. They close on The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz, the difference between codependency and love, and Laguna Beach's own strange history as one of Timothy Leary's old stomping grounds. This episode covers legal and illegal psychedelics purely as personal experience and education, not instruction. Neither Rose nor Greg are telling you to do any of this. They're sharing what has worked for them and their clients so you can decide what's right for you.

    048. Taboo, Consent, and What Really Happens at Play Parties with Rose Heartsong

    One in three monogamous people fantasize about opening their relationship. Almost none of them ever tell their partner. This week, Rose Heartsong breaks down why, and takes you inside a private, invite only play party she attended the night before this episode aired. Rose Heartsong is an intimacy and erotic intelligence coach (often called a sex coach), somatic kink practitioner, and host of Sex Ritual Radio on KXFM 104.7, Laguna Beach's community radio station, airing live every Sunday night. This solo episode covers three of the show's core pillars: erotic intelligence, embodied spirituality, and holistic health, through the lens of taboo, non-monogamy, and consent culture. Rose opens by unpacking the erotic blueprints, the five different ways people experience arousal and pleasure (sexual, sensual, energetic, kinky, and shapeshifter), and why most of us were only ever taught one of them through porn. From there she defines taboo itself: social, religious, and behavioral taboos, why breaking one creates shame even when no one is actually harmed, and how something as simple as choosing your own last name can register as culturally forbidden. The episode's centerpiece is a breakdown of real research on non-monogamy: a study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior by Justin Lehmiller surveying 822 monogamous Americans found that 32.6% named an open relationship as one of their all time favorite fantasies, and 80% of that group wanted to act on it. Yet only 4 to 9% of American adults are actually in an open relationship. Rose walks through why that gap exists (nervous system fear, communication breakdowns, and technology replacing real co-regulation), and gives a simple framework for evaluating any fantasy or desire: is it consensual, is it free of harm or trauma, and does it involve only adults. If it clears those three questions, she is not here to judge it. The back half of the episode gets personal. Rose describes what it was actually like inside a vetted, invite only play party community: how she showed up to contribute rather than extract (bringing damiana tea as an aphrodisiac offering), the level of explicit verbal consent practiced by everyone in the room, why the community talks about STI testing more openly than most monogamous couples do, and a live nervous system regulation exercise you can do right along with her. She also shares a personal story from that night involving Shibari rope, an electric play scene, and a conversation about what she calls devotional union, the kind of partnership she is open to but not desperate for. This episode is reflective and educational, not a how to guide. Rose is not telling you to open your relationship, attend a play party, or do anything outside your own boundaries. She is offering a permission slip to get curious about your own desire. If this episode brings something up for you, and you want support navigating desire, intimacy, or communication in your own relationship, you can reach out to Rose at roseheartsong.com for a consultation. What you'll learn in this episode: The five erotic blueprints and how porn narrows our sexual education to just one of them The real definition of taboo, and the difference between social, religious, and behavioral taboos What the research actually says about how many people fantasize about non-monogamy versus how many act on it A simple three part framework for evaluating any fantasy or desire without shame Why technology and phones are creating nervous system loneliness inside otherwise stable relationships The difference between opening a relationship to fix it and opening a relationship to nourish it How consent culture and STI testing actually work inside ethically non-monogamous communities A guided nervous system regulation exercise you can practice in real time The four core types of intimacy: emotional, physical, intellectual, and experiential 0:00 Intro and why Rose challenges everything 1:30 Why she's been thinking about taboo lately 4:00 The five erotic blueprints explained 8:30 What taboo actually means, and the three types 11:00 Her own last name as a taboo example 13:00 Setting up tonight's topic: last night's play party 15:30 The Lehmiller study: fantasy versus reality on open relationships 19:00 Why the gap exists: nervous system fear and rehearsal 21:30 A three part framework for evaluating any desire 23:30 Communication, technology, and nervous system loneliness 27:00 Opening a relationship to fix it versus to nourish it 29:30 Fear, judgment, and the permission slip to explore 32:00 Showing up in community: contribution versus extraction 35:00 Damiana tea and why she brought it 37:30 Inside the party: costumes, performances, and cuddle puddles 40:30 Witnessing a moment of unguarded erotic connection 43:30 Consent culture and verbal check ins 45:30 STI testing and safety inside non-monogamous community 49:00 Guided nervous system regulation exercise 51:00 The four types of intimacy 53:00 Meeting a stranger, Shibari, and devotional union 56:00 Electric play and community bliss 58:00 Closing reflection and a challenge for you this week Follow Sex Ritual Radio live every Sunday from 9 to 10pm PST on KXFM 104.7, Laguna Beach's community radio, or subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.  ✨ Resources & Special Offers ✨ 🌹 Explore more at www.roseheartsong.com 🛏 Splash Blanket - 10% off with code ROSEHEARTSONG → https://splashblanket.us/

    047. Legal Psychedelic Replacing Alcohol (And Improving Sex) with Josh Whitaker of Happy Mind

    I bet you money you've never heard of this. A legal psychedelic, discovered by the same chemist who discovered LSD, that people are using instead of alcohol to have better sex, kill anxiety, and actually get things done. This week on Sex Ritual Radio, Rose Heartsong sits down with Josh Whitacre, founder of Happy Mind and xTabs, a legal tryptamine and sexual wellness company Rose discovered at the ANME sex toy convention in Burbank. Rose is an intimacy and erotic intelligence coach (often called a sex coach), somatic kink practitioner, and host of Sex Ritual Radio on KXFM 104.7, Laguna Beach's community radio station. This conversation blends sexual wellness, nervous system science, and psychedelic education, three of the pillars this show is built on. Josh breaks down how Happy Mind, a legal tryptamine chemically related to psilocybin (magic mushrooms), was created after his business partner watched mushrooms succeed where two rounds of rehab failed for his wife's alcoholism. Seven months and half a million dollars later, Happy Mind existed: a legal, non-impairing alternative to alcohol that people are using for ADHD and ADD support, stress relief, biohacking, and focus, without the hangover, the empty calories, or the next day regret. From there the conversation turns to xTabs, the sexual wellness formula built out of Happy Mind's biggest surprise: women reporting the best sex of their lives. Rose and Josh get into the actual ingredients (muira puama, horny goat weed, maca root, saffron, ashwagandha), why most female arousal products are still designed by men for men, and why nervous system regulation, not willpower, is the real gatekeeper of arousal. If you're in your head, your orgasm is dead. If you're in your head, your boner is dead.  This episode also gets into some of Rose's core teaching territory: how porn conditions the nervous system away from real intimacy, why the average teenager now carries as much anxiety as a 1950s psychiatric patient, why alcohol is one of the most normalized libido killers in modern culture, and how kink's foundations in consent and communication can actually teach people how to advocate for themselves with their own doctors. Fair warning: this is a real, unfiltered conversation about legal psychedelics, sexual health, and alternatives to alcohol. Rose and Josh are not doctors, this is not medical advice, and nothing here should be taken as a treatment recommendation for alcoholism, depression, or any diagnosed condition. Products discussed are intended for adults 18 and older. Josh is also giving Sex Ritual Radio listeners a free four count microdose of Happy Mind (just cover shipping) using code ROSE at checkout. - https://tryhappymind.com/  What you'll learn in this episode: What Happy Mind and xTabs actually are, and how they differ from psilocybin and cannabis Why a legal tryptamine is being used as a real alcohol substitute How nervous system state (fight or flight vs. rest and relax) directly controls arousal and blood flow Why most sexual wellness products fail women, and what xTabs does differently How porn conditions the nervous system away from embodied pleasure Why alcohol, SSRIs, and chronic stress are quietly killing modern libido How consent and communication skills from kink apply to advocating for your own healthcare  0:00 Intro and how Rose met Josh at ANME 2:30 What Happy Mind is: a legal tryptamine explained 6:00 Why it's hard to produce, and how it compares to other legal tryptamines 8:30 Happy Mind as a legal alcohol alternative 10:30 Origin story: rehab, mushrooms, and building Happy Mind 15:00 Alcohol's normalization and health harms, ibogaine comparison 18:30 Lion's mane, turkey tail, and Rose's brain scan story 22:00 How xTabs was created from customer feedback 25:00 xTabs ingredients for men vs. women 28:00 "If you're in your head, your boner's dead" 30:00 Porn, nervous system conditioning, and the modern sex drought 33:30 Client breakthrough stories and testimonials 36:00 Nervous system 101: fight or flight vs. rest and relax 39:00 Blue light, melatonin, and chronic stress 41:00 Legal age and safety basics 42:30 Product lineup: Hero Dose, Microdose, Cognitive Flow, Neurotone 46:00 Side effects, contraindications, and SSRIs 48:30 Medical malpractice, consent, and advocating with your doctor 50:30 Turkey tail, cancer research, and Paul Stamets 52:30 How Happy Mind changed Josh's life 54:00 Free coupon code "Rose" offer and where to find Happy Mind - https://tryhappymind.com/  ✨ Resources & Special Offers ✨ 🌹 Explore more at www.roseheartsong.com 🛏 Splash Blanket - 10% off with code ROSEHEARTSONG → https://splashblanket.us/

    046. What is Orgasmic Meditation? Inside the Most Taboo Meditation Practice in the West with Cara Joy Brand

    Rose sits down with Cara Joy Brand—erotic liberation revolutionary, certified Orgasmic Meditation coach, S Factor practitioner, and leader of Women Over Dinner—for a conversation 13 years in the making. Rose has flirted with OM since 2013 but never fully committed to the practice. \ This episode is the initiation. They unpack what Orgasmic Meditation actually is: a precise, 15-minute partnered meditation practice that uses the body's wiring to drop new practitioners into theta brainwave states it takes sitting meditators 20 years to reach. Cara explains why the glove matters, why the training is non-negotiable, and why this practice is so subversive in an anti-erotic culture. The conversation moves into the difference between sexual energy and erotic intelligence, the real feminine versus the absence of the feminine we've been sold, and a woman's responsibility for the energy she magnetizes. Rose shares vulnerably for the first time about her abortion, the lichen simplex chronicus that followed, and why she's being called back to devotional practice with her own body. They close on Women Over Dinner—a transformational dining experience that has gathered 5,000+ women across 500+ dinners globally, raising funds to bring these experiences into women's correctional facilities.

    045. Brat Energy Is Not a Problem, It's Intelligence What I Learned at DomCon with Rose Heartsong

    Rose Heartsong breaks down brat energy from the inside out — what it actually is, where it lives in the nervous system, and why it shows up in every relationship, not just kink. Fresh from DomCon, the premier BDSM and kink education conference, Rose brings back frameworks from educator Scratch's workshop "Everybody's a Little Bit of a Brat" and layers in her own somatic and trauma-informed lens. Whether you're kink-curious, in a conscious relationship, or just tired of being called "a lot" — this episode is for you.

About

Sex Ritual Radio is where intimacy, communication, and embodiment become sacred pathways to healing and aliveness. Hosted by Rose Heartsong, Certified Intimacy Coach, Somatic Guide, and Sacred Intimate, this show invites you into the living edge of love, desire, and conscious relationship. Through soul-nourishing conversations on conscious partnership, erotic polarity, somatic awareness, sacred intimacy, conscious kink, and holistic living, we remember that healing does not happen through avoidance or performance. It happens through presence. Sex Ritual Radio is a space for raw truth, emotional depth, nervous system attunement, and embodied wisdom. A space where the masculine and feminine are reimagined for the New Earth, where devotion replaces domination, and desire becomes a force for transformation. Here, passion is medicine. Presence is devotion. And how we love is how we touch the divine.
