Today’s guest, Victor Warring, has a quite provocative title - he is an Erotic ReWilder. Which includes his roles as a Somatic Sexuality Educator, mentor, coach and community facilitator. Victor is dedicated to supporting people in reclaiming their erotic sovereignty and removing any self-imposed, internalized or socially imposed obstacles that interfere with the expression of their bodily erotic brilliance.

In this episode, we dive into the distinction between erotic and sexual—and why that difference matters.
We also explore what it means to rewild after generations of colonization, and how we begin to deconstruct the narratives that have shaped our bodies, our pleasure, and our sense of self.

What does it mean to rewild, decolonize, and reclaim our experience of pleasure and intimacy?
How do we embody erotic sovereignty—not just in moments of intimacy, but in our relationships with ourselves, each other, and the world?

Victor shares how sexological bodywork can support this reclamation, the role of conscious pleasure practices, and how we can expand our capacity to experience pleasure—even amidst chaos, collapse, and collective overwhelm.

Today, I want to talk about humanity’s place in the world and making sense of reality in times of tumult and suffering. I’ve had an internal dilemma about how informed to stay about what’s happening in the world. Consuming the news, we undesirably become dervishes of fear from the content oversaturation. Turning away from the content overload, we innocently attempt for self-care, which almost always has a tail of guilt smacking us in the face.

So what’s one to do when these two extremes are at play? How do we keep a pulse on reality, while also tending to the impacts of overconsumption on our psyche, emotional states, energy system, and physical body?

In today’s episode, I want to offer a few perspectives on rising in a time of crisis, healing humanity’s shared abandonment wound, and shifting from the mindset of scarcity to one of sovereignty. I’ll also reveal what I’ve been cooking for you with my new program, so tune in and let’s riff together on these big topics.

(35:38) Vulnerability - our shared humanity and glue

Today's guest, Shawna Reininger, with Conscious Enterprise, once sat tall in a 5th Avenue office in NYC as a marketing executive for Tri-Star Pictures. Around the time of her father's unexpected death, she had an awakening, which planted seeds for her to eventually transition into becoming one of the most skilled intuitive business and personal guides I know. She is passionate about teaching individuals how to blend their intuitive intelligence, spiritual wisdom, and pragmatic self to transform themselves into a powerhouse of possibility.

We discuss why tapping into the power of intuition is more crucial than ever. We talk about how we can cultivate a deeper relationship with our higher selves, and how our intuition can guide us on a journey of a profound transformation, fulfilment and wellbeing. We also explore the themes of self-connection and love amidst the chaos of the world, the importance of discipline in personal practices and how to navigate resistance on the journey of self-discovery.
