Today’s episode is an exhilarating journey through the twists and turns of personal transformation and sensual awakening. Listen in as one of my best friends and co-founder of Soulsway, Janelle Marra, sits down with me to unravel our shared past within what I playfully refer to as a "sexy cult." Together, we'll reflect on our evolution from vulnerability to empowerment, sharing laughter and candid memories along the way. Janelle, a former doula and actress, dives into her acting class revelation that sparked a deeper connection with her own sensuality, inviting you to celebrate our paths to self-discovery.

"That was the huge aha and she said - You were not sexy and you need to do something about it!" - Janelle Marra

This conversation is where movement and sensuality intertwine, as I recount my own eye-opening experiences with a unique exercise that redefined my relationship with my body. You will feel the power of a supportive community of women, evocative music, and the transformative impact of embracing fluid, sensual movement. With Janelle's insight, we discuss the significance of finding one's rhythm and the courage to break free from rigidity.

Janelle and I also delve into the emotional intricacies of leading high-pressure retreats and the personal challenges that come with such a demanding role. We close the loop by sharing our dedication to fostering a new environment where emotional and physical expression is not only permitted but fervently celebrated. This episode is an open invitation to join us in embracing personal freedom and self-expertise, all while building a sanctuary free from external judgment.

"I took her words to heart, thinking about how I could become more comfortable with myself, how I could embody that sensuality she spoke of. It was like discovering a new side of myself, a side that I never thought I had." - Janelle Marra
