How do you relate to power in your relationships and within yourself?
This podcast episode is a potent one, sparked from an unpleasant experience I had with a leader in the polyam community who clearly did not walk his talk of intimacy, attunement, and repair.
After posting about this experience on Facebook, I got a flood of notes from people who'd had similar experiences. Fauna and Kari were two coaching colleagues who felt equally passionate about embodying leadership in love and business from a place of integrity and radical self-ownership, so we decided to have this conversation in public.
Fauna is a certified Erotic Blueprint™ Coach, Orgasmic Arc™ Coach-in-training, Accelerated Evolution Guide, and Functional Herbalist. They are the founder of the Astro-Herbal apothecary ROSE & EROS: Earth Medicines for Ecstatic Vitality.
They support visionaries and surthrivers of all genders and sexual orientations to overflow their authentic pleasure cup, heal emotional blockages that prevent them from living their fullest lives, and come home to who they really are as their most vast self.
Kari works as The Anti-Soulmate Love Coach, helping liberate people from harmful romantic conditioning and insecure relational patterns so that they can create relationships rooted in safety, sovereignty, and vulnerability.
They specialize in relationships outside of the cishet monogamous norm (i.e.: polyamory, kink/BDSM, queer, people who want to step off the relationship escalator, etc).
As you might imagine, this queer and healing-centered conversation gets kinky pretty quickly, and we also address:
what power and leadership means from an uncolonizing, healing, and embodied lens;
how internalized systems of oppression play out energetically in our relationships; and how radical self-ownership and relinquishing egoic power can move us toward a more humanized and energetic model of leadership.
Give it a listen and let me know what shifts for you!
