      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>On control, trust, and staying in relationship</strong></p><p>What if life isn’t something to control… but something you’re in relationship with?</p><p>In this solo episode, I explore what it means to let life do you. Not just in the moments that feel good, but also when things are messy, uncomfortable, or out of your control.</p><p>We move beyond sensual awareness and into something deeper:<br>How do you stay in contact with yourself when life doesn’t feel like a choice?</p><p>I weave together perspectives from embodiment, conscious relating, and kink, including the idea of consensual non-consent, to explore how we relate to intensity, trust, and the unknown.</p><p>It is not about bypassing, forcing positivity, or enjoying suffering.<br>It’s about staying present, taking responsibility where you can, and experimenting with trust where you can’t.</p><p>In this episode, I touch on:<br>– staying in relationship with life (instead of fixing or resisting)– intensity and edges– the patterns we unconsciously return to– trust, surrender, and the question: can I stay open even when I don’t understand?– translating relational and sexual agreements into how we move through life</p><p>You’ll hear a different take on surrender. Not as something passive, but something deeply relational.</p><p>.</p><p>🔗 <strong>Stay Connected:</strong> You can follow my journey and explore more about intimacy and sexuality at ⁠<a href="https://www.intimate-breath.com">⁠www.intimate-breath.com⁠</a>⁠ or on ⁠⁠<a href="http://instagram.com/intimatebreath">⁠Instagram⁠</a>⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠<a href="https://www.facebook.com/IntimateBreath">⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠</a>: @intimatebreath.</p><p>If this episode resonates, feel free to share it, send it to someone, or reach out.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>What happens when 'conscious' or spiritual language becomes a shield?</p><p>In this solo episode, I explore a subtle dynamic I’ve seen again and again in intimacy-oriented, embodiment, and spiritual communities: what I call spiritual hierarchy. It's the moment when intuition, inner experience, or emotional fluency starts being used to override someone else’s reality.</p><p>This episode is for those who are inside these spaces… </p><p>and also for those who have stayed away from them, stepped out, or felt disappointed - precisely because something didn’t feel right, even when the language sounded beautiful.</p><p>We talk about how empathic people can easily end up doubting themselves in these environments, how vulnerability can be met with care or quietly turned into a tool for power, and why inner experience is meaningful… but not automatically authority.</p><p>This is not about cynicism or diagnosing others. </p><p>It’s about discernment. </p><p>It’s about mutuality. </p><p>And it’s about staying connected to your own signals, especially in spaces that speak the language of healing.</p><p>I also share parts of my own journey from naive compassion to wiser empathy: empathy with boundaries, with choice, and with self-trust.</p><p>If you’ve ever felt confused after a “conscious” conversation, or wondered whether your discomfort was actually intelligence… this one is for you.</p><p><br /></p><p>.</p><p><br /></p><p>🔗 <strong>Stay Connected:</strong> You can follow my journey and explore more about intimacy and sexuality at ⁠<a href="https://www.intimate-breath.com">www.intimate-breath.com</a>⁠ or on ⁠⁠<a href="http://instagram.com/intimatebreath">Instagram</a>⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠<a href="https://www.facebook.com/IntimateBreath">Facebook⁠⁠</a>: @intimatebreath.</p><p><br /></p><p>📢 We’d Love to Hear from you!

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Kris said he wasn’t even in chapter one yet — still writing the prologue. He hadn’t had a sexual relationship before joining the Liberation Journey. Intimacy felt scary. But something in him still said yes.</p><p>This conversation is about what that opened in him — and what it didn’t. It’s not about “finally arriving” or having it all figured out. It’s about the quiet, ongoing work of letting yourself want more, even when it feels too late or too far away.</p><p>We speak about fear, loneliness, longing, and what happens when you dare to be seen just a little bit more than before.

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Beyond We vs. Them: How We Polarize Ourselves and Others]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In a world addicted to sides, speed, and certainty, what happens when we slow down and get intimate with the discomfort instead?</p><p>In this episode, I explore how we-versus-them dynamics — from COVID debates to political leaders, from war to gender and identity — mirror the same parts of ourselves we often reject. With a trauma-informed, body-led lens, I invite you to move beyond dehumanization and into deeper presence, where complexity and curiosity can coexist.</p><p>This isn’t about agreeing.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>You keep showing up. You want to connect. But somehow, it keeps happening: you’re the one left out. </p><p>Not chosen. Not seen. Not touched. </p><p>Again.</p><p><br /></p><p>In this solo episode, I dive into one of the hardest patterns I witness in group spaces — and know personally: the <strong>rejection loop</strong>. A painful cycle that has nothing to do with how attractive, interesting, or "good" you are — and everything to do with what your body has learned to expect.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you've ever told yourself _“maybe I’m just not lovable”_ — or shaped your whole way of being around _trying not to be rejected_ — this one's for you.</p><p><br /></p><p>We'll talk about:</p><p>- What rejection has to do with shame and survival fear</p><p>- How trauma, attachment, and the nervous system silently broadcast your past </p><p>- The many sneaky ways the rejection loop expresses itself (you’ll likely recognize yourself) </p><p>- And: what to do if you’re tired of trying to be “enough” just to be included</p><p><br /></p><p>I’m sharing this not just as someone who’s studied this for years — but as someone who’s lived it. There’s a way through. And it doesn’t start with fixing your appearance, your energy, or your social skills.</p><p><br /></p><p>It starts with no longer believing that being rejected means there’s something wrong with you.</p><p><br /></p><p>Listen in. Let's befriend it. Let’s untangle the loop — together.</p><p><br /></p><p>.</p><p><br /></p><p>🔗 <strong>Stay Connected:</strong> You can follow my journey and explore more about intimacy and sexuality at <a href="https://www.intimate-breath.com">www.intimate-breath.com</a> or on ⁠<a href="http://instagram.com/intimatebreath">Instagram</a>⁠ and ⁠<a href="https://www.facebook.com/IntimateBreath">Facebook⁠</a>: @intimatebreath.</p><p><br /></p><p>📢 <strong>We’d Love to Hear from You!</strong> If this episode touches or inspires you, please consider sharing it with others.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>What do sex and death have in common? According to David Cates, quite a lot. In this episode, we dive into the deep end—exploring how slowing down changes everything, from intimacy to the tender process of dying. David, a lifelong seeker and teacher of embodiment, shares his thoughts on what it means to truly let go.</p><p>David Cates is known for his pioneering work in intimacy, embodied connection, and somatic practices like Belly2Belly. With decades of experience, he’s been a guide for many seeking deeper presence, richer relationships, and a more grounded approach to love and sexuality. Now in his 70s, he embraces his role as an elder, reflecting on the cycles of life, the wisdom of slowing down, and the opportunities for growth in our most vulnerable moments.</p><p>In this conversation we explore the raw parallels between orgasm and death, the liberation of dropping masks, and the surprising gifts that loss can bring. David also shares how his curiosity about the dying process has shaped his perspective on living fully and loving deeply.</p><p>This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect—with yourself, others, and the beauty of life’s fleeting moments.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>This time, I’m sitting down with Veronica and Ernesto, a vibrant couple who bring their rich, tangled personal story to the table. Hailing from Mexico, they share what it’s been like to carve out a life in Sweden—grappling with stark cultural differences, building lasting friendships, and finding connection in a new land, even when it’s felt shaky.</p><p>With over 20 years since they started dating and 15 years of marriage behind them, they open up about a recent twist: choosing to explore an open relationship. In a grounded, real, and sometimes playful way, they unpack the ups and downs of shifting roles—stepping into the space of a ‘third’ rather than the ‘only,’ and noticing how familiar patterns still creep in, even beyond just the two of them.</p><p>What makes their perspective so compelling? They’ve been part of my Liberation Journey, joining me in spaces like the Desire Playground, where vulnerability and depth have shown them they’re not alone in their messy experiences. Ernesto reflects on how witnessing others bring their desires forward has hit him hard, while Veronica pinpoints what set this path apart: the intentional, co-created culture we built over six months as a group.</p><p>They offer a raw, insightful look at love, identity, and belonging—across borders and within relationships, flaws and all.</p><p>.</p><p><br></p><p>For info on the Liberation Journey program mentioned: </p><p>https://www.intimate-breath.com/theliberationjourneybelgium </p><p>Instagram/Facebook: @intimatebreath</p><p>https://www.intimate-breath.com/</p><p><br></p><p>📷 Janie Petersen</p><p><br></p><p>📢 We’d Love to Hear from You!

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Unexpected path: how conscious kink healed my chronic pain - with Lavinia]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Join us for an intimate conversation with Lavinia, an architect who's turning into a sexuality and conscious kink facilitator, as we explore the transformative journey from trauma to empowerment.</p>
<p>In this episode, we dive into our shared experience of childhood sexual abuse and how it has shaped our paths towards healing and personal growth. </p>
<p>Lavinia opens up about her personal story of reclaiming her power after being abused at age 12. We discuss the confusion, shame, and isolation that followed, and how group healing experiences have been transformative in her recovery process. As we explore our parallel journeys, we reflect on the power of finding connection through shared wounds and the importance of breaking the silence surrounding childhood trauma.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>We discuss:</p>
<p>- The surprising connection between chronic migraines and emotional suppression</p>
<p>- How conscious kink practices have become a tool for processing anger and expanding capacity for pleasure</p>
<p>- The power of finding your voice to say "no" in recreated scenarios</p>
<p>- The realization that our bodies are actually strong and capable of defending themselves</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Lavinia shares a powerful moment from a Sacred Desire Playground where she finally found her voice, describing it as "a huge burden lifted off my shoulders." We also touch on her journey with chronic pain and how impact play has surprisingly increased her ability to manage physical discomfort. </p>
<p>This conversation gets real about the messiness of healing, the power of group support, and how embracing our darkness can lead to unexpected liberation.</p>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[The Ingredients of Sensuality: Cooking Up the Life I Want - with Hans]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, I'm joined by Hans, a coach and facilitator from Belgium, who specializes in organizational and leadership coaching, as well as personal development through breathwork and bodywork. Hans shares his personal journey of seeking to experience sensuality not just in intimate settings, but as a vibrant part of his everyday life. He discusses how this quest has led him to explore and integrate various "ingredients" into his life, which have transformed his approach to living sensually.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>He shares his insights on:</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>- The power of expressing desires and being received without judgment</p>
<p>- Overcoming manipulation tactics and taking responsibility for one's needs</p>
<p>- The link between his episodes of depression and his relationship to desires</p>
<p>- The profound impact of group healing experiences</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Hans opens up about his struggle with getting the feedback that others feel intimidated by him and how this affected his relationships. We discuss the vicious cycle of defensive strategies and the realization of breaking free from them. </p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>Join us as Hans reflects on his experiences assisting and participating in the Liberation Journey, sharing insights on how these engagements have helped him redefine his understanding of sensuality and personal freedom. This episode is a deep dive into the subtle, yet powerful shifts that occur when we bring conscious awareness to our everyday interactions and the way we perceive our desires.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, I'm thrilled to sit down with Samuel Svärd, a breathwork facilitator whose approach deeply resonates with me and enriched my own practice. Samuel has been guiding people through transformative breathwork sessions since 2020, and together we speak into the often overlooked power of breath.</p>
<p>Listen as we explore the intimate link between breath, pleasure, and orgasms. We share personal insights and experiences on how integrating breathwork into intimate moments can awaken the body and lead to profound states of being. The breath, a simple yet potent tool, often surprises those who are new to its effects, and we discuss why it deserves more attention in our daily and erotic lives.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>🎙️<strong> Special Feature:</strong> Don't miss the end of the episode, where Samuel leads us through an introductory breathwork session, giving you a firsthand shorter experience of what breathwork can be like. This guided session is perfect for anyone looking to enhance their sensory experiences and dive deeper into what their body can feel.</p>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA["We Have Herpes! and Revel in Safer Sex Talks - with Tricia]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this enlightening episode, join me as I chat with Tricia, the Safe Slut, also known as Cassie Black in her role as an adult artist, who champions sex positivity through her diverse work ranging from sex education to creating content for OnlyFans and participating in both mainstream and artistic adult films.</p>
<p>Our conversation dives into the deeply personal and universally relevant topic of living with genital herpes—a condition we both share—and how it influences our lives and dating experiences. Tricia shares her insightful and empowering perspective on why conversations about safer sex aren't just necessary; they're downright sexy.</p>
<p>We tackle the common excuses people use to avoid sexual health responsibilities, explore the difference between being oversexualized versus celebrating our sexuality, and discuss the realities of working in the porn industry while still conveying a message of self-empowerment.</p>
<p>One of the most powerful takeaways from our discussion was her affirming statement: "I have herpes and I am hot," a testament to embracing and owning one's sexuality despite societal stigma.</p>
<p>Don't miss this candid, vulnerable, and educational episode that challenges perceptions and invites a more open dialogue about sex, health, and self-acceptance.</p>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA["Can I flirt with you?" - Reid on ethical sluttiness and dating your species]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this playful episode, I sit down with Reid Mihalko, a sex and relationship coach. As we flirt and giggle our way through some deeply enriching discussions, we touch on the pressing need for ingrained consent, especially for those in privileged positions. Reid offers a fresh perspective on how society grapples with mistakes, referring to his own past restorative justice process.</p>
<p>Ever heard of "dating your species"? It's Reid's teaching about recognizing who you truly are in the vast spectrum of relationships and connecting with those who genuinely match you in it. Whether you're an adventurous monogamist dreaming of sailing escapades or a queer individual embracing promiscuity, Reid emphasizes the importance of clarity in choosing partners.</p>
<p>We dive deep into the world of open relating and the art of ethical sluttiness, exploring how to leave every encounter, be it a person or place, better than you found it. Reid's sex-positive narratives might just catch you off-guard, you are warned!</p>
<p>Join us for this rollercoaster of an episode – it's flirty, vulnerable, educational, and sure to make you rethink some relationship tenets. If there's one thing I hope for, it's that you'll find as much value in listening as we did in sharing our crush-laden conversation.</p>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Honoring Her Pace: Saskia's Path to More Pain-Free Play]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this deeply personal episode, Saskia speaks into her journey from discomfort and pain to self-connection, to doing it her way and to doing things in her pace.</p>
<p>The tantric workshops and gatherings initially drew her in, with their potential for liberation and ecstasy. However, Saskia found herself overriding her own body, lost in an intensity that felt far away from true pleasure for her.</p>
<p>As a very sensitive woman, she started listening more to the subtle whispers of her body and found great treasures. She describes to us how sex has always been painful and how her relationship to her own erotic body has shifted.</p>
<p>Listen to this heartfelt conversation where vulnerability meets wisdom, and where Saskia's story beckons us to explore our own paths to pleasure, on our terms, at our pace.

The last 5 years for her have been mostly dedicated to working with men around issues such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, pain, aches, fear and shame... to name a few.

<ul>
 <li>Bodywork on male genitals and the effects</li>
 <li>Cock stretching: can he become longer/thicker?</li>
 <li>Peyronie's disease: the bended penis</li>
 <li>How to deal with performance anxiety</li>
  <li>What kind of orgasms are there possible for people with a penis?</li>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Sexually Empowered Through Unschooling - Part 2]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Diving into the topic of Unschooling has taught and inspired me lots when it comes to (un)learning, being human and creating the life we truly want. This is the second part of my talk with Pam Laricchia and Anna Brown who bring their expertise on unschooling, focused on the topic of relationships and sexuality. I am beyond excited to share with you this conversation about:</p>
<ul>
 <li>How can we relate without rules?</li>
 <li>How can we support our children but also ourselves to listen to our body?</li>
 <li>Natural embodied consent awareness.</li>
 <li>The power of knowing AND feeling that we have a choice, at any moment.</li>
 <li>Creating a culture where it feels safe to make mistakes and safe to quit if something doesn't feel good.</li>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Li Tadaa on Gender Fluidity & Open Relating]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Li Tadaa call themselves a lust coach and they're a great inspiration of mine. They combine tantra, kink and dance in their own unique way and are an expert in bridging different worlds and cultures. They are known for their queer- and cis-friendly spaces and have lots of wisdom to share on the topic!<br>
One other reason I enjoyed talking with Li is a kinship in our relating style and sexual orientation. In this episode they'll be talking about polyamory and what it means for them, as well as bring some valuable perspectives through attachment theory.</p>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[How Sexuality Became My Path]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>"How did you start doing the job you do?"<br>
Thanks to you asking me this question often lately, this episode is laying out the key events in my life that shaped me to where I am now.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Like every mother has a birth story, all of us have a story about growing as a sexual being. Explaining to you what got me to become a holistic intimacy and sexuality coach is pretty much the same as telling you this personal tale. By listening you'll get to know how I started my journey full of eagerness and curiosity but also with patterns of pleasing, non-consensual happenings, genital health challenges and experiences of painful intercourse. You hear about some turning points that made me look for alternative ways to navigate my intimate life. You'll get to know more about the ways I found or created the kind of safety I needed to heal. How did I find the kind of intimacy and ways of relating that fulfilled me in a much deeper way, uniquely to what I need and long for?</p>
<p>This is also to you who's my client and who feels like I know your whole life story while you barely know mine!</p>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Let's not talk about it - Personal stories with my sister]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>You can also read this on my </em><a href="https://www.intimate-breath.com/post/let-s-not-talk-about-it"><em>blog</em></a><em>.<br>
</em>We don't learn about masturbation. We don't learn about our anatomy (like, for real, there are so many misconceptions about our genitals). We don't learn about having difficult conversations or setting personal boundaries. We don't learn what an orgasm is. In our curriculum, LGBTQA+ was highly unmentioned.<br>
And how the freak is it possible we don't learn how to read the signs of our fertility?</p>
<p>Some are angry.<br>
Some are confused.<br>
Maybe you feel unsatisfied.<br>
Many wondered and didn't know who to ask to.</p>
<p>Any time I study more about the erotic body or receive a question from a client that starts with "Is it normal that..." and continues with something that is completely normal (like always), my heart breaks a bit.<br>
The consequences of having a topic like sexuality be taboo is massive for our self-image, our sexual well-being and thus our overall health. Let's start talking about what is important!<br>
<br>
In this episode my sister and I talk about our experience of growing up as young girls. It's a story that many can relate to and a conversation we hope you start opening more with those around you.<br>
<br>
Get in touch if you are interested in working with me: <a href="https://www.intimate-breath.com/">www.intimate-breath.com</a></p>
<p>Ps. If there is one thing for sure, it is that I am way better in talking pleasure than setting up a recording studio! With humor and some sincere sadness I can tell you I took a microphone and not-so-light-weighted soundcard with me on my travel to Belgium, only to realize afterwards I by accident used the computer microphone anyways. I hope you find some joy in listening to our talk nevertheless!<br>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Creation Orgasms: Can You ‘Come’ From Working?]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Arousal, sexual pleasure and orgasms, can they also be present in situations that are usually not considered as sexual?<br>
In this episode I’m sharing a personal story about a powerful orgasmic experience I’ve had now multiple times more since this recording happened. Olivia is with me and guides the conversation with her curiosity.</p>
<p>You’ll hear more about how pleasure and creation are linked in two directions. Through the body, through touch and through our sexual pleasure we can access flow, effortless creation and expression. From there we can feel inspired and take action. <br>
The other way around is also possible: the (biologically crucial and ) purposeful act of creating a baby is meant to be pleasurable. Any other creation that feels purposeful and comes from a deep care can also be orgasmic.</p>
<p>Can this positive feedback loop of bodily pleasure in our work support us to create more and more effortlessly?<br>
Other subjects we dive into:</p>
<ul>
 <li>Allowing ourselves to feel turned-on whenever</li>
 <li>A new perspective on orgasms and how they can feel like</li>
  <li>Looking at creation in cycles</li>
  <li>Our mind as a fully integrated part of our being</li>
</ul>
<p>Are you open to being surprised of what’s possible?</p>

<p>In this episode you'll hear my intimate sharing and learn about self-pleasure as a tool to more flow, more healing and more creativity. Open your mind and let's redefine what self-pleasure is, as well as look at the expansive places it can lead us to.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>One of many taboos still present in our society: abortion.</p>
<p>Here, Lisa shares her intimate story from finding out she is pregnant to losing the foetus in the toilet. In her own disarming and endearing way she explains to us the process of a medical abortion and how it felt for her both physically and emotionally.</p>
<p><strong>Open your legs for the gynecologist.</strong> Do you know your rights when you visit a medical professional? Did you ever receive the loving reminder that you can help your gyno in how to treat you? Your body is yours and penetration is always on your terms.<br>
This is important. This matters.</p>

<strong>Can you experience pleasure in every moment?</strong> We talk about the inherent neutral nature of any sensation that can be experienced in the body. A curious mindset can be the magical trick to receive the next moment in a completely different light.<br>
<strong>How can there be pleasure in menstruating? </strong>What is 'blissful bleeding'?&nbsp;</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Is giving oral sex for you something enjoyable, bearable or in times rather disgusting? In this episode Kelsey and I tell our personal stories in giving oral sex. We share how it is possible to move from only pleasing or giving for the pleasure of a partner, to feeling the authentic impulses from within to pleasure (with) the tongue, the mouth and the throat. We can open up to new layers of surrender and trust, release stored tension through sex and open up our bodies, also in this tasty place!</p>

      <itunes:title><![CDATA[Emotional maturity]]></itunes:title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Imagine schools where the cognitive learning is one important aspect next to many others, like relating, handling strong emotions, authentic communication and listening to the body. We could argue that this is not the job of a school and still, there could be a lot more consideration and room for integrated embodiment, emotional wellbeing and relating skills in children's learning journey.</p>
<p>As adults, we all have a little child in us. The one that just sometimes needs to be held, that suddenly gets stubbornly angry, the one that wants to run away when something gets scary. Most of us didn't learn how to acknowledge and be with our own little child.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In this episode I talk with Nikki Verloy from Onderwijs Anders (https://www.onderwijsanders.be/ ,in Dutch) about emotional maturity with children, in the classroom and in adult relationships.<br>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In the blogpost '<a href="https://www.intimate-breath.com/post/you-use-self-pleasure-for-everything">You Use Self-Pleasure For Everything?!</a>' I discuss how (self-)pleasure can be a source of inspiration, creativity and renewed energy, but also a tool for emotional release and coming closer to yourself and your body. It got a lot of responses full of curiosity and readers opened up to share their personal story. A lot of men wondered, sometimes questioned, whether the same applies to male sexuality.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In this episode I interview Fredrik Swahn, a musician and tantra teacher. Above all, a man who has been immensily eager to explore himself throughout his life and isn't afraid to speak in the open about his personal experiences. Join us in this talk about the sexual experience of a man.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Yes, your pussy can be wild, powerful and strong. What's also similar between a wild cat and your genitals is that once they had a negative experience, it takes time to build the trust again. It takes time to (re)build a proper and pleasurable relationship. In this episode, Kelsey Filip and I are discussing how to move from numbness or pain to trust and pleasure in your vagina!&nbsp;</p>
