Jordan & I talk about the "before & after" of working with your sexual energy. I discuss my own journey, the beliefs about sex that will change, myths about orgasm and how the narrative of doctors is often wrong (yes, everyone can have minutes long orgasms and all different types), and what changes in the rest of your life when you're connected with this energy. Jordan also talks about how it feels for men to be with a women who have done this type of work. We created this podcast in celebration of our newest course Eternal Glow, you can find out more by clicking here:GetEternalGlow.com
A quick update to tell you I'm taking a little break from episodes! I will likely be back in some amount of weeks :) xo** this break has gone on much longer than intended & isn't ending anytime soon!!
Jordan and I talk about many things under the sun, such as going to bed and waking up with the sun, the comment our appliance installer made about our handiness and what we are doing now, Jordan chopping wood and Demetra planting the garden, Jordan’s new program, Jordan’s dreams, the cute things about our island, what we had to let go of in getting married, and much much more
In this episode Jess and I talk about our past experiences with men following us home, cat-calling, and being predatory, and what to do in these situations. We discuss verbal boundary setting, how to tell someone you’re not interested in communicating with them, what signs to look for when someone might be dangerous, and the various ways a situation can escalate. We also talk about our own experiences with self-defense training as women, different types of martial arts, and how important it can be to have the knowing that you can physically protect yourself. We also both love men and share the perspective that having had negative experiences with some men does not extrapolate to men in general, and we talk about shifting this story, our appreciation for men, and the protectiveness of men around us.Jess's linktree: ways to work with her, free offerings, etcJess's Facebook (where she writes most of her content)Jess Mather, Cpt, Lpta, Sfg, FRCms, Fms, is a strength and rehab professional who helps others relieve symptoms and build a strong, healthy body with sustainable, safe, and proven strategies.

In this episode (and about 2 years into our marriage), Jordan and I discuss what it was like for us to get engaged. Jordan talks about having anxiety and questioning everything, I talk about how I handled him feeling that way, and we both talk about the many different things our minds did to try to protect us. We especially focus on the societal narrative for how you "should" be feeling during this time, versus the reality of how most people actually feel! Engagement anxiety is a very real thing, and it's not a "condition" as much as it is just very normal. If we don't work through these feelings during our engagement, it's likely they'll surface in the first year of marriage. These life events are a big deal, and we're here to talk you through it!Jordan's article: Engagement Anxiety: Why am I more afraid than happy?Direct, live support from Jordan Gray: The Circle

In this episode Jordan interviews me, asking me 5 deep questions about life that he did not tell me ahead of time. This is a very intimate episode full of tears & laughter :) topics include what I miss about the beginning of us dating, the biggest thing I've learned about sexual energy, what I want our future children to know, & more. Stay tuned for next episode where we do the reverse, with different secret questions!
Jordan & Demetra hang out and talk about many different things including: Jordan’s list of his favorite funny things Demetra has ever said, how we’re sick of the polarity world and how fragile people’s polarity seems to be, changing with your partner, beauty culture and hair, botox, nails, & makeup, and our journeys with coffee.

In this episode I tell you about why I deleted most of my past stuff from the podcast/my website, talk about the transition from coach>cult>myself, tell stories about my maximalist design group drama and free speech, and how I am letting myself have all my feelings now and letting go of dumb new age beliefs.Weekly episodes are back - stay tuned!
Last September I made a podcast called "why I left my spiritual community." After I shared it, the leader told me that I would be hearing from her lawyer if I did not take the podcast down. Now I have realized that I was in what I believe to be a spiritual cult. I also have realized, after receiving a cease & desist letter because of my recent Instagram posts, that I never did anything wrong by making my initial podcast. So in this episode, I tell you what's happening now with my journey, and I also put that episode I made last fall, back up so you can listen to the whole thing.

For the past decade I have been sharing my life online. All of my thoughts, my processes, my opinions. My entire journey, my travels, my successes and creations and missteps.This was fueled mostly by my need to express. To be all of me in the world. To say the things that people shied away from saying. There have been many times I have taken a break from social media. Either because it was deleted and taken away from me, or because I needed to feel myself without it, for a little while.But there is this feeling that has been coming up for me lately, getting louder and louder and more.. pressing.And it doesn't have anything to do with social media, not specifically.I always felt like no matter what happened, I would continue sharing myself. In the same way I had always done.And... I don't want to anymore.This episode is a deeper explanation of that to wrap up Season 1.

In March 2021, I began what I termed my "food journey," a journey of eating more food and seeing what happened. In June of that year, I went "all in," to heal an eating disorder I realized I had. During this process, I gained 115 lbs, my weight plauteaued for about 9 months, and then I started losing weight, having now lost 50 lbs. I have documented my journey the whole way through, and in this 2 year episode, I share what I wish I did differently and the things I know now that I didn't know then.

As I prepare to get pregnant (hopefully this year) I've been thinking about this time of "pre-conception" that isn't talked about too much, and what it means to intentionally get pregnant in a world that doesn't treat it as sacred as much anymore. I talk about everyone I'm working with and what I'm doing - nutrition, movement, house stuff, clothing, emotional processing, & more.

A little check-in from my car while we are traveling! I’m here with my Mom in South Carolina, and I got my actual period for the first time in almost a year and a half (after bleeding for all that time without cycling). I talk about ovulating for the first time, painful periods, not being afraid of messing up our health, getting ready to have a baby, relationships with family and healing meaning that we don’t get activated, what we packed to eat on the plane, my attitude when having to eat out a bunch and not feeling as great… just a ton of random little updates!

Since I was a little girl I have felt a deep connection to the Earth around me, one where I would let the rocks and the trees hold me when I felt sad and was able to communicate with them. I believe we all have this ability, it is our birthright on Earth, and when we soften and open to receiving from the land around us we can be so nourished and trust life so much more deeply. I tell some stories from my life, of moments when I have felt the Earth hold me and why this has been so deeply important.Links: Email list: demetragray.com/newsletterJoin the Circle with me & Jordan: jordangrayconsulting.com/circle
Jordan & I talk about how the pickup world and how he started his inner work there in his early 20s, how I used to hate men and not trust them and how that changed, how we both got into polarity and how the polarity world is just largely playing out wounding. We also talk about the idea of always being open to sex, bringing our full selves to relationship and what that looks like, men crying in front of women, what is really missing about traditional masculinity and femininity and why that is appealing to so many…. and more!Links:Heal Your Relationship to the Masculine / Join the Circle: jordangrayconsulting.com/circle
