The inner work of restoring the Madonna/ Whore complex in women, is what we explore in the flowing conversation of this episode. The developing standards for women after the free love phase of growth, and the evolutionary possibility of sacred union that exists beyond it; describes where many spiritual women are currently. We discuss how sometimes there is misunderstanding on the learning/ remembering journey - especially where women are mistaking submission for devotion, as they calibrate to a more ancient time of temples dedicated to female sexual initiation for inspiration. And it's all part of the process to discover how women contribute to the patriarchal sx paradigm.

Diana Richardson has been teaching making love retreats in Europe with her partner for 30 years. As an accomplished Author and Tantric Teacher, she talks about the male orientated approach to s*x people typically experience, which isn't about creating actual connection between men and women's bodies. And the 'pleasing' response in women, which is about the need to get love and the fear of losing love. She shares how lack of education is the issue, along with little attention on the female experience. Diana guides the journey of sensation to sensitivity, so people can feel real energy in their bodies. In this episode we talked about how seeing s*x as stress release is an issue in relationships, how to experience the tantric approach, and more.
BIO
Diana Richardson is one of the world’s leading voices on conscious sexuality and the pioneer of the “slow sex” movement. For over 35 years, she has guided thousands of couples to reconnect emotionally and physically through her transformative Making Love Retreats and bestselling books, including The Heart of Tantric Sex, Slow Sex, and Tantric Orgasm for Women.

In this episode Shaney-Marie and I explore embodied eros as a medicine journey, the manosphere, and more.
There are no established ancient traditions left in the world today that provide real sanctuary environments for women, exploring the embodiment of their full erotic power in expression. Women and women's bodies are blamed by the major world religions for the fall of man, and so female sexuality is veiled, commodified, commercialized, shamed and suppressed.
Remember to bring your curiosity, courage, appreciation for nuance, and empathy to be in this conversation.
BIO
An erotic mystic, muse, and mentor, guiding women through the mysteries of sensual embodiment, volatile initiation, and feminine liberation as a generative path of awakening and self becoming. Rooted in neo-tantra, archetypal erotic dance, sexological body work, and mytho-somatics, Shaney offers an eros intuitive pathway on the journey of self-discovery, awakening the deepest layers of the feminine soul. Shaney holds spaces of permission, play and inviting loving presence into the layers in which people hold taboo and shame.

Message from Dévashi:
“Your sacred body is the crucible. Somatic female embodiment is the alchemy, but it’s about being true and surrendered to where it takes you - not to fixate on the method. There is no magic higher than the sovereign coding that your light body is holding intact for you, until you are ready to recognise how what you seek for outside, is already right here. There is no power greater than yours. Your sacred scripture is already written inside your inner temple walls. A woman will search and search outside of herself because she undervalues her innate experience - as she was programmed to do. Illumination of this inner path becomes known through inner restoration especially of your sacred female body, with deep listening in that direct experience.”

Continuing the conversation from Episode 12, here is further practical information about evolutionary money in intimate partnerships. Dévashi is speaking from an embodied perspective, highlighting how the 50/50 finances paradigm in relationships is not the equal situation some assume it to be. In the type of relationship and lifestyle we choose for ourselves, there will be an impact on embodied polarity, on health, and on the quality & depth of intimate relating. Some ways guarantee female depletion, and some will instead bring feminine flourishing. Every choice has a consequence, and so we all get to decide the outcome we most desire.

EPISODE 11:
P.S. Is Normalized Violence
with Dévashi Shakti
The first shorter solo episode, where different perspectives will be shared, all contributing to defining what patriarchal s*x is & why it’s time for humanity to live beyond it.
To name P.S. as a form of normalized violence against women is opening a new dialogue rarely spoken. The way women’s bodies have been used, mishandled, neglected, objectified, oppressed, and more - even in usual everyday encounters has been so commonly practiced, that often even women don’t know what else is possible. While this type of ‘violence’ may be unconscious in most cases, it’s so expected that it’s invisible to many.
More insights to come!
Episodes are now fortnightly

There is a process for men to move from the patriarchal sexual conquest approach of winning and failing in his own mind, to true authentic relating with a woman. Some of the benefits of this shift in approach include accessing his own expanded pleasure potential, and being able to makelove for longer periods of time. In this episode, men's dating and intimacy Relationship Coach David Chambers shares his personal experiences and client results to demonstrate this evolutionary process.

If you care about the safety of children, you need to listen to this episode. When men's sexual rights are advocated for at the academic level to justify products to satisfy all male sexual urges - regardless of whether they infringe upon the human rights of others....we have a problem. Are male sexual needs advocated for with sex dolls truly 'needs', or can we talk about distinguishing actual needs from dysfunctional urges that intend to cause harm to women, girls and boys? Consider supporting Collective Shout to be part of this advocacy with today's guest, Caitlin Roper.
