Let Loose Your Desires
& Create Your Intentional Reinvention
Six months of masterminding & mentorship with LiYana Silver
Who you will become in this next chapter of your life
and how you will shape your corner of the world
depends on you being grounded in your Feminine Genius
— a state of skill, self-confidence, self-trust, and sensual aliveness.
Give me six months of masterminding — well, mistress-minding! — and I’ll guide you there:
You.
Shameless. Authentic. Radiant.
Grounded in your power.
Guided by intrinsic self-worth.
Stripping away what no longer fits you.
Getting un-stuck.
Enjoying the delicious divinity of your body.
Held by a small group of sisters, deeply committed to your unfurling.
Blazing remarkable trails into your life and work.
Living the most awake, alive, aligned version of yourself.
Becoming the woman you’re meant to be.
However, when it comes to your Reinvention,
you can’t just slap on a fresh coat of paint and hope for a “new you.”
If you aren’t intentional as you reinvent yourself and your life,
you’ll do so based on your past, self-limiting beliefs.
Based on what your logical mind or other people
or our very confused culture THINK you should do and be.
And then, instead of a Reinvention, you’ll have a re-enactment
— of all the same shit (with a fresh coat of paint on it).
But not if I have anything to say about it.
Because you deserve so much more.
Applications are open!
With bonuses + discounts + extended payment plans through April 15
Here’s what we’ll be getting up to
Revise Your Self-Limiting Beliefs
Feminine Genius Principle #1
Let’s say, when you were little, you could sense how overwhelmed and distracted your family was. You figured out that if you were “good,” and didn’t have any needs, didn’t speak up, didn’t take up much space, and weren’t a “burden,” then maybe they’d see you, love you, and cherish you.
So you developed the belief that
being needless and voiceless
is the way to feel lovable.
Or let’s say, when you were little, you sensed your parents’ disappointment at your birth — “not another girl, we SO hoped for a boy.” You figured out if you worked twice as hard as the guys and gave twice as much, you might be able to prove how smart and acceptable you really are.
So you developed the belief
that overworking, over-giving,
and over-functioning is the way
to feel valuable.
Or let’s say, when you were little, your caregivers were outright abusive and dangerous. You learned to scan your environment for possible threats and be ready to leave your body at a moment’s notice.
So you developed the belief that
anxiety and hyper-vigilance
are the way to feel safe.
Totally raw deals that leave you with painful beliefs about yourself, your body, your worth, about love, and about life, and that put limits on your true Self.
Self-limiting beliefs are the birthplace of all the shit that we are all SO ready to be done with:
Second-guessing. Perfectionism. People-pleasing. Self-Criticism. Self-Doubt. Co-dependence. Over-functioning. Workaholism. Putting everyone’s needs above our own. Not speaking up. Constantly proving ourselves. Never-enough-ness. Fear of intimacy. Fear of abandonment. Fear of being smothered. Suppressing certain emotions. Losing ourselves in relationships. Never rocking the boat.
But all of this is completely revisable.
This is the heart of our work.
Because guess what? You GET to stop efforting to hold everything in place. You GET to live without the constant thrum of anxiety. You GET to love with your heart open, your body confident, and your words coming out strong, yet soft.
You GET to know yourself as smart and valuable
and lovable and seen
and special and enough
and whole and safe
and joyful and magnificent,
as natural as breathing.

“The love I have for myself now is priceless.”
“My entire life I struggled to truly love myself. My inner voices were pretty cruel, I was jealous, afraid of what others thought of me, and afraid of being alone. I was unsure how to face my many limiting patterns and conditioned beliefs.
LiYana is a genius in the realm of reinvention
I am now diligent about my self-care — a fierce, devotional, sacred form of self-love. I’m aware of my strengths, I live with intention, and I have my inner wisdom to guide me. My life is not perfect, and yet I feel equipped to handle any great challenges that come my way.
Own Your Sexual Power
Feminine Genius Principle #2
We can all feel in our bodies the connection between our sexuality and our power, between our sexuality and our fire, between our sexuality and our intuition — even if our minds might freak out a little at the thought.
The energy of your sexuality
(and sensuality)
is the energy of vitality.
Creativity. Inspiration. Knowing.
Raw power.
And what woman hasn’t had her sexuality silenced? Or shamed? Exploited? Violated? Feared?
But when you own it, when you reclaim what was taken from you, you tap into the wildly-loving power that fuels all of life.
And then comes your confidence. Your radiance. Your Womanhood.
And then, there you go,
letting your Holy Hunger lead you.

“I now know myself to be a beautiful, sexy goddess at any size.”
“I came into this program thinking small and feeling small, yet also feeling like I was 'too much.' My body felt like a burden or an ugly hunk of clay. I had no idea of how to revive and feed my creative fire.
It was a huge financial stretch for me to invest in this program.
But it has connected me to my power, joy, and deep desires — and has helped me recover from alcoholism, an eating disorder, depression, and panic — so it has been worth every penny, many times over.
Trust the Oracle Between Your Thighs
Feminine Embodiment Principle #3
Do you stay or leave the relationship? Quit your job and strike out solo? Go on that second date? Eat vegan, macro, raw, or paleo? Homebirth or hospital? Stop talking to your toxic parent?
As women, we’ve been trained to override our bodies and our feelings and our inner authority and to let other people inform us on what is right for us. We’ve been Olympic-level trained at this.
But the truth is, you KNOW. Your Inner Authority is intact. It’s factory-installed. It works just fine, even if right now it feels elusive or lost, like some vestigial tail.
The truth is, you’ve got a compass that’s always pointing you in the direction of Your True North.
This compass is located in your sexual, sensual, creative center.
In our months together, you will reunite with your inner compass — which I call the Oracle Between Your Thighs — learn its language and build a deep mutual trust.
Why Oracle? Well, when faced with life’s hardest, biggest choices, folks in the olden days used to head to the cave or the mountaintop to consult with the Oracle, who was considered to have the ear of — and be the mouthpiece for — the Divine. Although time has marched on, we are still taught that to get through to god we gotta have a middleman, and that we can really only trust an authority or an expert, never our own darn selves. But it turns out, you’ve got your very own Oracle, right inside you.
Why Between Your Thighs? Well, just like your mind knows, and your heart knows, and your gut knows, so do your Lovely Bits know. Even though you don’t need science to tell you what you can confirm for yourself in your own body, researchers now recognize that there is a closed system of information-sharing and nervous-system-regulation that runs between your brain and your reproductive organs.
All very useful to help you make choices you know are right for you. Be true to yourself. And guide your life with the same intelligent energy that makes life.
This is the case no matter how many or few of your reproductive organs you have, whether you are cis-gendered or trans, whether or not you identify as female, feminine, a woman, womxn, womxxn, gender non-binary, or gender-fluid.
Divine guidance isn’t out there somewhere. It’s in you.
“I can now trust myself — I never used to feel this way!”
“In order to get everyone’s approval when I was growing up, I felt I had to cut off the parts of myself that didn’t fit. I used to binge eat and drink under stress, partly because those cut-off parts of me were starving.
Those parts of me are still there, but instead of being a wild, crazy force, sabotaging my career and life, they are amazing partners to me. And fabulous sources of energy.
The turning point for me was when I began to feel a super strong connection to my body and her wisdom. I got access to a source of inner wisdom I didn’t know I had, that I now trust 100%.
I’m a better mom, a better wife, a better communicator. I’ve gotten clear on what programs to offer next to my clients. I make great choices. I have a sense of deep satisfaction with my life. I have far more strength and grit than I realized. I believe that I am whole … and from this, everything that I want and need can flow.”

Navigate Your Dark
Feminine Genius Principle #4
Divorce. Health crisis. Betrayal. Self-betrayal. Becoming a mother. Not becoming a mother. Post-partum. Menopause. Perimenopause. Moving homes. Moving countries. Pandemic. Racial Reckoning. Death. Depression. Grief. Loss. Rage.
When the Dark descends, we think that if things have fallen apart so radically, it must be because we did something wrong. Because we are wrong. Failures. Frauds. Wanted too much. Didn’t work hard enough. Have fallen from Divine favor.
But the truth is, even though the Dark can be impossibly painful and disorienting, it isn’t a punishment. It’s an invitation.
An invitation to feel your feelings and not die from them. To discover the messages inside your emotions. (What the highly-unpopular ones like anger, grief, and depression have to say to you will blow your socks off.)
An invitation to strip away the bullshit so you can hear what’s true. Change the things about your life that are no longer working. Become a better friend to yourself. Re-encounter the sacred. Grow into the next, splendid version of you.
Our culture at large, and even our well-meaning friends, families, and communities are often completely unaware of what is going on and what will actually help when we encounter the Dark.
Before you know how to navigate your Dark, you might feel like you are going crazy.
But after our six months together, you’ll know you are being reshaped.
The Dark is a holy place, even though it can hurt like hell.
“I can be compassionate toward myself — and like myself — even at my very worst.”
“The change of orientation that this work brings, has changed everything for me. I’m not saying that as a hyperbole. I do a lot of different kinds of personal growth work, so it’s not always easy to figure out what is actually helping. But in this case, I can clearly see what has helped me change.
As I have been broke, overweight, depressed, even temporarily homeless, these principles and practices have helped me not just survive, but also to develop a loving relationship with myself and with life.
I never believed in a friendly universe and I do now. I no longer see myself as a project to fix. I have a greater connection with my clients. I don’t make myself smaller around other women. I’m able to sit with my feelings instead of run from them or try to fix them right away. Ironically, I’m able to experience more pleasure and joy.
When I look at myself and my life through that lens, doing this work has been beyond worth it; it’s been priceless.”

Feel Confident in Your Body
Feminine Genius Principle #5
When I was first healing from eating disorders and people-pleasing and workaholism, my then-boyfriend asked me one day what I thought of a company he was thinking to buy. “What does your body say?” he asked me.
So I gave it a whirl and asked.
Me: “Hey, body, whatcha think?”
My body: “NO.”
My then-boyfriend didn’t listen to me, though, because from looking at the profit-and-loss statements and double checking the data, it looked like a great opportunity.
He soon discovered, however, that the company had lied. If the sale had gone through, it would have been a disaster.
“Holy shit!” I thought. “My BODY is tapped into a form of intelligence that all the logic and pie charts and graphs in the world don’t have access to.”
Listen, our minds love us. They are just not supposed to LEAD us. Our mind has gone a bit cuckoo doing a job that’s above its pay-grade.
Logic can limit us. Planning can put potholes our path. Trying to be ON all the time can take us off course.
Over our months together, you’ll learn how to spend less time in your head and more time in your body.
You’ll cultivate a mind that’s more peaceful and friendly. Learn how to let your intuition lead and let your mind support. Feel at home in your skin. Stop with the shitty self-criticism. Be a good friend to yourself. Naturally ease up with numbing and addictive behaviors. Look in the mirror and like what you see. Rock the shit out of a new dress, a pair of old sweats, and everything in between. Know what you know, feel what you feel, and love what you love.
And you’ll learn to lead with that form of intelligence that all the logic and planning and willpower in the world don’t have access to.
“I now know nothing is — or ever was — wrong with me. I was just too busy to listen to my body.”
“I had gotten really good at running a highly profitable business, keeping on my son’s nap schedule, and making sure that the to-do list was handled, but my inability to enjoy and let go was causing fights and resentments with my husband. I used to second-guess myself about everything, fearing failure or embarrassment.
Now when I start to doubt myself, I use it as a sign to let me know I am on to something amazing, and I go for it! I understand more fully what it means to be — and do business as — a woman, to stay healthy amid my constantly-changing emotions, hormones, and cycles.
I discovered that I need spaciousness in my life in order to feel sexy. Our love-making has reached new heights and it feels so good to crave my husband. I now know that my marriage will last — where as before I was secretly worried.
LiYana helped me transform things that I have been working on in other growth and development programs for 10+ years. Everything I was searching for, I found within me.”

Create an Intentional Reinvention
Feminine Genius Principle #6
Oh, those times when we feel “something’s wrong here” but we freeze. When our guts say “leave!” and we stay. When we vacate our bodies because the panic gets too big to handle. When we deflect a compliment by pointing out one of our flaws instead.
In order to deal with some shitty personal circumstances and some shitty cultural conditioning about being a woman, our freezing, staying, dissociating, or demurring became ways to survive. And thank goodness.
However, along with that, we’ve learned how to do some serious by-passing.
By-passing of our Feminine Genius. Our intuition. Our bodies. Our feelings. Our desires. Our soul. Our need to rest and to retreat. Our need to run our greatness like a racehorse.
And so, the time has come to learn some skills that work better than by-passing. Skills that are honed in the forge of the Feminine.
The Feminine flexes her muscles through your body. Your gut instincts. Your intuition. Your ability to ask for and receive help. Owning your wild sweet sexy. Your fierce longing. Your wholeness and happiness. Your HELL NO and your HELL YES.
You don’t need a new you. The true you works just fine, thank you very much. Let’s give her the steering wheel.
I know that steering your life from the wisdom of your body and the genius of the Feminine is a radical proposition. Ra-di-cal!! There are few people or places in the world that think this is a good, safe, or serious idea. But sister, they are blinded by a world built by and built for the Masculine.
But I know, and you will soon come to know, beyond a doubt, that there is simply no better way to help you become who you are aching to become and do what is yours to do this lifetime.
The Feminine will be your wing-woman for your intentional Reinvention.
“After I completed this experience with LiYana, I didn’t even recognize myself.”
“Before I landed in LiYana’s loving presence and mentorship, I was disconnected from my body, was healing from a difficult past, and had been in quite a long dark night of the soul.
The container of the program was exquisite. LiYana is the real deal and curated the experience to touch the parts of me that needed love the most. I learned to trust my intuition, feel more safe in my body, feel the presence of the nourishing feminine, and feel a profound hope in my heart that my life would be filled with love again.
I learned to share my deeper self with other women in a more meaningful way than the social norms of competition and comparison. I made life long friends and am deeply grateful.
My capacity to experience pleasure, connection, love, and goodness in my life has increased a thousandfold, and continues to increase.
There is no way to put a price on healing the wounded feminine within the heart, soul, mind, and body of a woman. I would do this program over again double.”

What our next six months together will look like
Allow me to walk you through the journey of our time together.
Our one-on-one work
Belief by belief, we’ll walk you triumphantly into your Reinvention.
It is my honor to help you make sense of what has crumbled, and to transform family wounds, cultural conditioning, and inherited trauma. It is my joy to remind you of who you ARE, to guide you where you want to go (and beyond), to never let you settle for less than your magnificence, and to help facilitate your Reinvention.
We’ll meet on the phone or by video conference about twice a month, for our 85-minute deep dives. We’ll create an agenda of what beliefs you wish to revise, and use that as our road-map as we go. I’ll suggest some to add as well, that might be hiding out in your blind spots.
And, our work is always flexible enough to include the spontaneous and immediate stuff that comes up whenever it darn well feels like it. You’ll have (optional) “home play” in between sessions, so you can actualize in your external world the changes we are making in your internal world.
{If you are new to me, scroll down to the bottom where I’ll open my kimono and share all about me}.
We’ll make more lasting changes throughout our months together than is often experienced through years of therapy. Even though it is relatively swift, it’s not a make-over (remember, we’re not slapping a fresh coat of paint on you).
However, taken from the mouths of past participants, here are some of my favorite Before-and-Afters. (If they aren’t yet yours, they soon will be.)
Before: I can’t ask for what I need.
After: My desires are the answers to someone’s prayers.
Before: I don’t have a voice.
After: It’s safe to be seen. People can’t wait to hear what I have to say.
Before: I have to do it right.
After: I must do what’s right for me.
Before: I don’t know my purpose.
After: I know what is (and is not) mine to do this lifetime.
Before: I am qualified to lead even though I’m a woman.
After: I’m qualified to lead BECAUSE I’m a woman.
Before: Unless I hold it all in place, I’ll lose everything.
After: I trust life. I trust myself.
Before: I’m not good enough.
After: I am whole and I am home.
Before: I don’t belong.
After: These blazingly powerful women? I take my place in our circle.
Our Retreat
Let’s gather in the flesh, shall we?
We’ll meet in person and connect in sisterhood in the fertile bosom of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Asheville, North Carolina, a power-spot known to nourish and revitalize those who come and sit for a spell.
In the arms of the Great Mother Mountains and guided by my reminders, “It’s good to feel good” and “Your hunger is holy,” we will dive deep into the practices of Feminine Genius: pleasure, self-appreciation, self-trust, sensual aliveness, and claiming the delicious divinity of being in your body.
We’ll be moving, meditating, and mending. In the loving presence of the Feminine Divine, we’ll be doing practices, discussions, rituals, dancing (no experience required), inquiring, putting pen to paper and writing.
You’ll be making friends with your greatest doubts and fears — and your deepest desires. Learning how to love yourself even in rough times. Discovering how to decode the wisdom of your emotions. Refining your intuition. Getting a sex re-education. Finding your voice — and using it.
Any shyness around the other women will gently evaporate and you’ll feel like you’re in a group of sisters-from-another-mother.
Expect to feel clear-eyed, connected, juicy, confident, and lit-up as you head back into your life.
And in the cauldron of sisterhood, seal in and set into motion your intentional Reinvention.
Your Curriculum
Our virtual classes that guide & gound our 6 months
Just enough Zoom to connect us from wherever we are in the world.
Led by me, these online masterclasses are where we will first meet each other as a group and then conclude our journey together. We’ll dive into the foundational principles and practices of Feminine Genius that will guide us through our six months together, and that we will build upon at our retreat.
You’ll leave each class with a radical, fresh perspective on your body and your potential, as well as small practices to bring into your day-to-day. Join from anywhere on the globe, whether you are well-put-together or a big hot mess.
Plan on moving the mountains you need to move in order to be live on all the classes. (However, when life is life and you must miss a class, or when you wish to review, all classes will be recorded).
Month 1: Align With Your Feminine Cycles
Even though dominant culture tells us we are valuable the more we go-go-go, you’ll learn the power of ebb-and-flow. You’ll start by tracking your energy levels, thought-patterns, and emotions. So you can work with (rather than against) your ups and downs — for graceful time-management, organization, and self-care. Stop overriding your body. Heal your addiction to overworking and over-giving. Rest and rejuvenate without feeling guilty. Discover the best times to put the pedal to the metal. And live like you’ve got plenty of time.
Month 2: Channel Your Inner Oracle
Remember those “inner compass,” “divine guidance,” and “between your thighs” parts? Time to go there! You’ll learn the science and research that confirms the connection between your brain, your soul, and your (female) lovely bits. You’ll learn the unique language of your Oracle, so you can source your inner guidance. Know in your heart of hearts what you want and need. Separate fear (and anxiety, worry, and doubt) from intuition. Trust your gut (even when other people think you’re nuts). Develop clear boundaries. Feel connected to the Divine. And make choices that are right for you.
Month 3: Prioritize Your Pleasure
Even though world may assure you your body is bad, the natural joy of your body knows that it is good to feel good. You’ll begin by learning the connection between pleasure and confidence, and between pleasure and productivity. You’ll research which actions and attitudes make your engine purr. So that you can feel confident in your body. More easily hear your intuition (stress is loud, yo!). Feel more creative and inspired. Practice the secrets of magnetism and charisma. Experience less suffering and more satis-freakin’-faction.
Month 4: Dignify Your Desires
Can you really trust the hungers of your wild, lustful body? The short answer is yes. The long answer is, welcome to this masterclass! Although you may have been trained to ignore your body, you’ll get clear about what you need. Although you may have been trained to see your desires as selfish, you’ll learn how they actually make things better for everyone. Although you may have been trained to see your desires as dangerous, you’ll learn how to distinguish a healthy desire from a toxic one. So you become clear about your next steps and able to seduce others along for the sweet ride.
Month 5: Navigate Your Dark
As I see it, one of the root causes of human suffering is that we do not know how to work with our emotions. This class will teach you how. You’ll learn why emotions show up in the first place and how to survive their strong storms. Discover the core messages inside tough feelings like anger, grief, anxiety, shame, and depression. So you can be kind to yourself and stay in your body when things get intense. So you can show up and speak up, even when things get difficult. So you can trust your feelings, trust yourself, and trust life.
Month 6: See Your Beauty
We have been taught about our beauty from those who cannot see their own beauty, let alone the true beauty of a woman. The eyes with which we perceive ourselves have been conditioned to flaw-find with every glance in the mirror. But you have another set of eyes that are designed to see true beauty,yours and all of ours. These eyes gaze with reverence and delight. These eyes comprehend wholeness and worth. With some practice, seeing yourself and all of us this way becomes your new default. What you appreciate, appreciates.
Our Group
The glue of this program is sisterhood
Our group is made up of a circle of women who will celebrate your light as well as your dark, gently reflect your blind spots, not bullshit you, be gentle and loving, and be deeply invested in your reinvention. As a group, we will connect in our online masterclasses, our online Slack group forum, and at our retreats.
Note: At times, your fellow tribes-women might seem so magnificent, accomplished, and wise that you might feel small and lame in comparison. We all experience this. It’s a left-over, stale AF gift from dominant culture that we will be tossing on the compost pile throughout our time together. So that instead of shrinking, you’ll learn how to get yourself lit off of another woman’s brilliance.
Oh, and another note: If you are feeling a draw to this program but are doubting if you are “cool enough” to be let into this “cool club” of “cool women,” you are. You are plenty cool.
I already know you are magnificent, accomplished, and wise even if you may be tempted at times to downplay and doubt yourself. Your desire to be a part of this program means you belong in this group. We can’t wait to have you.

“I am bonded to this group of women through immense trust and understanding. They are now an extension of family, in my life forever.”
“For years I have shied away from female friendships because I didn’t know how to trust or be supported by other women. Well, now I know.
At an early age I had learned that the feminine parts of myself were weak and to be considered strong and worthy I needed to be more like a man. Now I know what it feels like to derive my strength from my feminine power and. I. Love. It. Watch out world!
LiYana has a way of playfully teasing out our hidden parts that were too scared to show up before. She is a fu*king rock star! And I do not say that lightly.”

Er, application?
Yep. Here’s why: This program asks both you and me to make a significant investment of time, energy, love, focus, and funds.
The application process
allows both you and I
to see if we are a great fit,
so we can both be a clear
HELL YES.
The application process will look something like this:
- First, you’ll answer some questions about your goals, desires, challenges, roadblocks, history & background which should take you about 20-30 minutes.Your responses will reach me through my secure server and I will hold them with respect and 100% confidentiality.
- I’ll then be in touch to set up a time to talk by phone or video conference, and we will dive into it all in greater detail.
- When we talk, I’ll outline how this program will meet — and surpass — all you are wanting. You’ll get a felt sense for me and how I work.We’ll walk through the cost of the program including bonuses, discounts, and payment plans. We’ll get any last questions answered.
And we’ll both leave with a clear “not a fit” or “hell, yes!”
Partial scholarships may be available. Women of Color to the front of the line. Let me know if this is you.
Applying in no way binds you to DO this mentorship program. Even if you don’t end up joining us, expect this process to be enlivening and enlightening.
I can’t wait to hear from you!
This is a Reinvention sourced from being in your Body, trusting your Inner Authority, riding the power of your Desires, and letting your Feminine Genius lead.
No more bypassing our knowing. Overriding our bodies. Stuffing down our feelings. Thinking we’re crazy. Exhausting ourselves. Dimming our light.
Let’s set your reinvention in motion!
So you can take up space. Feel comfortable in your skin. Trust yourself, your soul, and your sex. Say what you have to say. Know your value. Live like you’ve got enough and are enough.
So you can live like the blazingly powerful woman you are meant to be.

What about me?
Maybe you and I have known each other for years. Maybe this is the first you’ve heard of me and you’re curious. Or somewhere in between.
I’m LiYana. I help move people through the hardest shit of their lives and radically reinvent themselves, so they are clear who they are now, what they want now, and what they’re bringing into the world now.
Here’s some more about me … my dark nights, my bright heart, and my own Reinventions.
At 40-something years into my life, things were pretty peachy. Great relationship of over a decade, good health, lovely new baby, expansion in my business, beautiful community and friends.
And then one day in the middle of a bleak winter, the color drained out of my life.
All my life-long techniques for joy and positivity and motivation, stopped working. I had panic attacks by day and insomnia by night. I would get caught for days at a time in storms of anger, grief, depression.
I had crappy times before, of course, but this was different. My husband, friends, and community had little idea how to help and backed slowly away from me. Healer after healer plied me with expensive regimes and eventually threw their hands up as well. Everything I held sacred, caught fire and burned.
This lasted for a year. And then two. Of excruciating hell.
As I flailed about, I found a life-raft here, some driftwood there. I learned to re-find myself in an emotional storm. I found that each feeling had a startling message for me. I looked lucidly at the places I had betrayed myself, had muted myself, and had let myself run dry.
Eventually (long, long after the point which I thought I was sure I couldn’t take one more step), I emerged.
I emerged with an astonishing appreciation for — and an uncanny ability to guide a fellow human through — the brutal, loving process that is a Dark Night of the Soul and a Reinvention.
I emerged with a total and complete cease-fire of my life-long war with myself — eating disorders, self-criticism, workaholism, and a deep sense of not-enough-ness, especially around other women.
I emerged with a clear partnership with the Feminine. A reverence for and confidence in my body. Able to hear my unique and quirky intuition and trust my gut instincts. Clarity about my desires, needs, and wants. Feeling connection with and supported by other women. Able to create some truly miraculous shit.
I did not emerge perfect, nor pain-free. Nor do I aspire to be.
I am whole. I am happy. I am a great friend to myself. I am guided by the Oracle Between my Thighs and as a result, my life is continually stripped bare of bullishit and increasingly, astoundingly juicy. I feel so deeply loved by Life that it brings tears.
I have Enough — love, friendships, clients, income, support. And even though my plate is quite full, time. Time to dance, meditate, sometimes paint in oils, play with my kid, educate myself on racial equity, be an advocate for healthy masculinity, tend to my windowsill herb garden, cook good food, and generally eat sitting down.
Over the last 20 years, I have immersed myself in Women’s Studies, holistic nutrition, Transformational NLP, Child Developmental Psychology, Compassionate Communication, neuroscience, Attachment Theory, trauma recovery, mindfulness, racial justice, reproductive justice, feminism, womanism, Vajrayana Buddhism, Vedic Tantra, and human sexuality. I stand gratefully on the shoulders of e.e.cummings, Pema Chodron, Audre Lorde, Mary Oliver, Anne Lamott, Carl Buchheit, Carla Camou, Riane Eisler, and Regena Thomashauer. I hold an undergraduate degree in Dance Studies, a Masters Certification in Transformational NLP, a 500-hour Vinyasa Yoga teacher certification, and am a Holistic Health Coach certified by the AADP.
All that has helped me to become a gifted coach for women, run transformational courses and in-person retreats, do some inspired speaking now and again, and keep my butt in the chair to write my first book, Feminine Genius: Waking Up and Turning On the Wisdom of Being a Woman, which was nominated for Foreword Review’s “2017 Book of the Year” award.
And then, guess what? Down into the Dark I go (again). Reckoning with another radical Reinvention (again).
But now, I have TOOLS. I have an embodied understanding that when things fall apart, I have not fallen off my path, it is a part of my path.
Now, I know a Reinvention is galloping (again) toward me on the horizon. I know how to listen, to surrender, to accept only Divine Appointments, and to drag myself up on the wild horse of my life, and to stay astride, wind in my hair and beauty in my heart.
I know who I am now, what I want now, and what I will bring to the world now.
My friend, our Fallings-Apart and our Reinventions don’t happen once and then we get to get on with our lives. This IS our lives.
This IS a life lived in deep partnership with the Feminine. This IS a life where you will be refined, again and again, into the next version of the true you — the you who is here to love what you love, feel what you feel, know what you know, and do what is yours to do.
What do I mean by “Woman?”
By “Woman” I mean a person who has experienced misogyny.
We all live inside this dominant culture* that relentlessly devalues and controls women, girls, female bodies, female sexuality, those on the margins, queer and gender-non-conforming folks, and “feminine” qualities in all of us.
This program looks all of that square in the face and offers you an alternative — a radically self-affirming, life-affirming path and perspective for your Reinvention.
In this program, we will:
— Dignify the identity of Woman. As people who either self-identify as a woman or are seeking to understand more fully the identity of “woman” that has been assigned to us, we’ll dignify what has been so devalued, revise beliefs about what is and isn’t possible for us, and decide what fits (and what no longer does) in our identity as Women.
— Dignify our Bodies as they are, right now, period. Especially because they have been so denigrated, we need a deeper understanding of and reverence for female bodies, body parts, sensuality, and sexuality.
— Dignify the Feminine, whether that shows up in us as a quality such as intuition or sensuality or as an archetype such as the Divine Mother or the Holy Whore. Because “feminine” energy and qualities aren’t second-class, they are genius. And having full access to them brings profound wholeness, self-trust, and clarity.
— Dignify our Sexuality. There’s a load of toxic bullshit around sexuality in general, and female sexuality specifically. And we need to unlearn it so we can have full access to our unique expression of sensuality, creativity, joy, and power.
This program is descriptive, not prescriptive. Meaning, I’ll give you lots of information, perspectives, and exercises, much of which may be in your cultural blind spot. But I won’t tell you how to be.
This program is NOT about you contorting yourself to be some idealized version of Woman or Feminine. In fact, quite the opposite. I encourage you to take the gems you find, make your own crown, and you do you.
There’s no one right way to be you or to reinvent yourself, there is just YOUR way.
There’s no one right way to become the woman you’re meant to be, there is just YOUR way.
* I often use the term “dominant culture,” to describe the set of interconnected social systems built around domination and oppression that we all operate inside of — and are simultaneously working to free ourselves from.
Another term for this is kyriarchy, the “father” all the other -archies and -isms combined, including patriarchy, hierarchy, heteronormativity, meritocracy, misogyny, racism, sexism, ableism, colonialism, classism, capitalism, perfectionism, white supremacy, homophobia, transphobia, etc.
Whew. No wonder we’re all exhausted. Revision and Reinvention, anyone?
