Power Reclamation

Power Reclamation

The Power Reclamation podcast explores the mysteries, heartbreaks, and resiliency of the human experience. Most of us don’t have a roadmap to reclaim and integrate our lost power. Yet, we know in our hearts that in order to become the force we were born to be, we need to call all of ourselves back home. The journey of power reclamation is the evolutionary arc of reclaiming six important powers: Centering, Relational, Self-Acceptance, Wild, Intuitive, and Erotic Episodes range from expert interviews, storytelling, educational conversations, and a Q&A through “Ask Anne-Marie.”

  1. Power Abuse Through Spiritual Teachers

    Power Abuse Through Spiritual Teachers

    What does it look like when mega-celebrity spiritual teachers misuse their power and authority? And, when do these teachers' blindspots recapitulate the student's trauma - especially when the teacher doesn't understand the student's trauma response and instead blames the student for not doing the practices "right"? How can we stay alert to the charming and persuasive tactics of leaders who hold high positions of power and authority - while remaining realistic that they are still a human-being expressing themselves in unintegrated ways? This conversation with Nicola Amadora, spiritual teacher, Hakomi therapist and trauma-informed guide, brings light to the reality that students of spiritual teachers can slip into power-over and dominating power dynamics with a teacher that cause them to lose faith in their own inner authority and self-authoring trust. Key topics we covered: * The dangerous traps of spiritual bypassing and transcendence * How can women reclaim their voice when there have been centuries of cultural conditioning that dismisses a women's direct experience and personal needs? How can someone's direct experience ever be wrong as opposed to a gateway to greater self-awareness and understanding? * Scapegoating Projections - a common practice of banishing the innocent to justify separation and off-loading of personal responsibility through blame and exile * The downfall of savior projections that become a slippery slope of needing to hold a teacher as perfect and whole while ignoring red flags such as justifying their abuse and hypocritical behavior. * The impact of spiritual teachers who rigidly hold a right and wrong about how a person should live their life that makes no room for the unique needs of that person's process of integration and embodied healing. * Creating safe resources to process our confusion -- how to find people who can listen to our pain in a neutral and open-hearted way * We all have blindspots -- how to create a world where we help one another see them more clearly

  2. The Superhuman Compulsion -- doing, striving, busyness

    The Superhuman Compulsion -- doing, striving, busyness

    Today, I want to focus on the paradigm of superhuman compulsion. This socially esteemed and normalized way of operating that often requires us to neglect our need for rest, sleep, connection, play and self-care in order to sustain our self-image of being competent, valuable, and responsible. How many of us learned that our value is crystallized only after we have achieved the esteemed social status, the perfect job, the perfect family, perfect body, or the perfect healthy lifestyle? These pressures whisk us away on a roller-coaster ride of highs and lows — one day we feel accomplished, successful, and worthy, and a day later, we collapse into depression, unworthiness and feelings of self-doubt and failure. When we’re bombarded with social pressures of who we need to become it’s easy to forget who we are at our core — and what our life’s purpose is. We are not meant to do it all. Or, “be” it all. Nor are we meant to improve and fix all perceived shortcomings. Why? I share more about this during the episode — see topics below. Episode Topics: 1. Superhuman compulsion — an investigation into reclaiming our Wild Power 2. Two reasons why we are not meant to do it all. Or, “be” it all 3. The Wonder Twin Superhero’s- Zan & Jayna 4. Each one of us has superpowers and special medicine - what’s yours? 5. What is the superhuman compulsion? 6. Confronting the trap of a modern day superhuman idealization 7. The superhuman archetype: A conditioned behavior of domestication 8. Self-denial - a fast track to drying up our well of passion and resiliency 9. Understanding our collective inheritance (moving from outer-game to inner-game) 10. Exposing the voices that reinforce superhuman idealizations and beliefs 11. Two key factors that fuel the superhuman compulsion? 12. Seeking externally for validation 13. The addiction to busyness 14. When did the essential need for rest, self-care, and quiet time become a sin? 15. Disassembling the trappings of the superhuman compulsions — what’s possible?

    Sex, Love & Erotic Wholeness with Guest Darshana Avila

    What does it mean to reclaim our erotic power? This conversation with Darshana Avila, Erotic Wholeness Coach, is about healing and expanding our concepts of what it means to be an erotic and whole being. * What are the scripts that we all learn about sexuality and our sexual desires and scripts that keep us in smaller boxes? * What happens when we have the courage to explore these limitations and break through? * Who do we become when we liberate our erotic life force as a form of healing power? The conversation with Darshana begins with her personal journey related to her own erotic nature. We meander through her story of waking up from the conditioned scripts that had formerly kept her in the dark from her own power and wisdom. She shares about how she helps women, and couples, become more whole through healing the blocks that impede them from feeling liberated and whole as a sensual and alive powerhouse of love and wisdom. Other topics covered: * Tantra and the healing power of connected and embodied sensual and sexual exchanges * Wild Mind & SoulCraft- a body of work, through the Animas Valley Institute, that has deeply informed Darshana's activism as well as the creation of her map of erotic wholeness * Sex workers- the power of presence and embodied sensual and sexual services for healing and integration * Darshana was recently part of a Netflix series called Love, Sex and Goop, hosted by Gweneth Paltrow - in which she models her erotic wholeness coaching with one couple through three episodes.
