Description

In this episode, I dive into the shadow side of the Guru model of leadership in transformational spaces. While I've had some amazing experiences with this way of doing things, I feel it actually does more harm than good. It served its purpose, but I feel that we humans are ready for new systems, and new forms of leadership that honor individual sovereignty. the Guru Model and why I'm over itthe shadow side of the dominator modelone of my favorite books on this topicthe power of pleasure and partnershipwhy violence is built into the dominator systemhow its breeds gas lighting shaming and bullyingwhen good intentions go badthe system creates the toxicitywhere badassery goes wrongstealing Saturn and the damage donewhy integration is way more powerful than a mind-blowing immersionwhat it requires to co-createyour direct line to your powerwhy strong energy doesn't equal enlightenmentwhat the new leadership model looks likewhy your sensuality is your superpowerAnd some links:My favorite book on the topic of the Dominator vs Partnership modelLearn more about The Sacred Pleasure Membership

Welcome to The Vital Goddess Podcast! Hi, I'm Dianne Shepherd, certified holistic sexuality coach with a specialty in the Taoist Jade Egg Practice. In this show we explore an empowering reframe on women, menopause, midlife and beyond. I call midlife and menopause the Passion Portal; a sexual and spiritual rebirth into the richest, most creative, and sexiest chapter of a woman's life. I offer a body/mind/spirit and trauma-informed perspective on Taoist and Tantric practices, somatic sensual healing, and desire-based living. Here we explore all things that support you in reclaiming your pleasure, nourishing your libido naturally, tapping into the power of your Sacred Femme and rebirthing your life at midlife. Your sexual energy is not just about sex. It's the foundation of everything. And midlife is the perfect time to cultivate it.
