    Ep. 56 How to Live a Rich Creative Life with Miriam Rachael Freed

    In this episode, I sit down with my mastermind sister Miriam to talk about what it really means to “move things with your soul.” We explore creativity as something every human has, not just “artists,” and how subconscious reprogramming, nervous system regulation, and play help you actually live the life you keep visioning. We name the grief of watching others not go for their dreams, the courage of making yourself proud first, and why joy is not bypassing. You’ll leave with permission to start at zero, take tiny playful actions, and build a life that feels alive now, not someday.Miriam supports entrepreneurs, creatives, and leaders in building fulfilling, impactful, and rich lives through science-backed strategic coaching, subconscious reprogramming, and nervous system regulation. She leverages pleasure, play, and creativity to enable clients to build thriving businesses, liberated identities, and intimate relationships in alignment with who they really are. In addition to her 1:1 work, Miriam also runs an online creative membership for women & femmes desiring more accountability, community, and space for focused creativity with other kind, ambitious, collective-liberation-inspired, transformational humans. She’s a proud New Yorker and former high school educator, school leader, and equity consultant, currently living in Brooklyn with her pittie rescue, Marcus.

    Ep. 52 Choosing Pleasure on Purpose with Janellea Macbeth

    In this episode, I sit down with pleasure and business coach Janellea to talk about how we can choose pleasure on purpose—especially in seasons of transition. She shares her wild, winding path from music educator and quilting author to pleasure-centered business coach, and why pleasure is a discipline, not just a treat. We explore practical “body” and “brain” access points to pleasure, why joy doesn’t erase fear, and how to dream into your future using her playful million-dollar game. You’ll walk away with new ways to soften panic, reclaim desire, and let pleasure actually shape your next chapter. Janellea is a coach, creative entrepreneur, and lifelong problem-solver who has renovated houses, topped the Amazon bestseller list, run national book tours, and spun up a professional-caliber summer choral program in six months flat. With roots in music education and music therapy, a pleasure coach through Regena Thomashauer's School of Womanly Arts, and project management, she helps people organize their information, their environments, and their time so their work can fund the life they actually want, not the other way around.  Connect with her: https://www.facebook.com/janelleammacbeth Her freebie for you is the Drop In Vs. Drop Out Method- which is a great follow-up from the Million Dollar Game because it helps you set your course for your next chunk of days/weeks/months. https://www.pleasurefirst.xyz/podcast-gift

    Ep. 49 Breath, Desire, and Deconstructing Shame with Eva Blake

    In this episode of Oh My Goodness, I sit down with the phenomenal Eva Blake, a somatic sex educator and liberator of desire. Together we talk about sex, shame, purity culture, perimenopause, and what it actually means to want more from your life and your body. Eva brings so much grounded wisdom on breath, nervous system safety, and how to untangle your true desires from the stories you were handed. If you’ve ever wondered, “Is it okay to want this?” or “Am I broken?”, this conversation is a big, loving permission slip just for you. Eva’s Bio:  Eva Blake is a Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Somatic Sex Educator, and transformational coach with nearly two decades at the intersection of erotic intelligence, nervous system attunement, and liberation. She has been a pro domme, a sex worker, and a community priestess. She has worked across the full map of erotic and relational life: BDSM and kink, polyamory, orgasm and women's sexual power, rebuilding trust after rupture, visionary erotic leadership. If it lives in the body or between two people, she has been there. Her clients are high-performing women and couples who have built extraordinary lives — and whose beds have gone quiet, whose chemistry has flattened into routine, whose sex life has become the one place ambition doesn't reach. She works where most coaches won't: at the collision point between personal pattern and cultural architecture, between the nervous system and the systems that shaped it. Patriarchy colonizes desire. Eva's work liberates it. Her methodology, Desire, Body, Voice, is somatic, systemic, and unsparing. Clients come when fine is no longer enough. They stay because the work works.  Find her at: www.liberatingdesire.com, facebook.com/liberatingdesire IG: @DesireEvaBlake My 1:1 containers are currently sold out, but you can be on the waitlist for when spots open in August, just send me an email at TheJoyWeaver@gmail.com  Let's connect: Facebook: ⁠The Joy Weaver⁠ Facebook Group: ⁠Embodied In Joy⁠ Instagram: ⁠TheJoyWeaver⁠ TikTok: ⁠The.Joy.Weaver⁠ Youtube: ⁠The Joy Weaver
