In this episode, Regena Thomashauer, bestselling author + founder of The School of Womanly Arts, joins us for a bold conversation about pleasure, the nervous system, self-worth, and feminine power. She shares why reconnecting with your body can change the way you move through your entire life.

Regena opens up about her own trauma, the moment she realized success couldn’t heal what was happening underneath, and how pleasure became an unexpected path back to herself. She also shares what it means to trust your desire, even when life hasn’t unfolded on the timeline you imagined.

This episode is a reminder that you are not here just to achieve, caretake, and hold everything together. We explore what becomes possible when you let yourself feel more, receive more, and reconnect with the part of you that knows you’re meant to be fully alive.


We also talk about:

  • Why women are taught to disconnect from their bodies + pleasure
  • How shame around the female body can disconnect us from confidence + intuition
  • Why Regena believes pleasure can help regulate the nervous system
  • The difference between sexuality + erotic aliveness
  • What happened when Regena realized her identity had become completely wrapped up in helping other people
  • Her “on our knees” moment + the decision to finally turn inward
  • How grief, fear, and desire can coexist during periods of deep uncertainty
  • Using movement to help emotions move through the body
  • The stories of Lilith, Psyche, Demeter, and Persephone + what they can teach us about feminine power
  • Why women don’t have to shrink themselves to be loved or accepted
