   Ep. 13 How I healed my Oral Allergy Syndrome through embodiment

   For over 20 years, I couldn't eat a raw apple. Or carrots, pears, cherries, plums and the list went on and on. What started as a strange tingling sensation in my mouth as a teenager eventually became years of anxiety around food, fear of allergic reactions, panic attacks, doctor visits, allergist appointments, naturopathic protocols, and constantly wondering where the nearest hospital was whenever I ate something unfamiliar. In this episode, I share my personal journey with Oral Allergy Syndrome (also known as Pollen Food Allergy Syndrome), how it affected my life, and the surprising way my symptoms began to change through embodiment work. This is not a story about finding a miracle cure. It's a story about reconnecting to my body, exploring the relationship between the nervous system and immune system, releasing years of tension, fear, and emotional holding patterns, and discovering what became possible when I stopped treating my body like the enemy. I also share the experiences that shaped my relationship with safety, trust, boundaries, anxiety, and self-expression, and why I believe the body often speaks through symptoms long before we learn how to listen. 🌹 In This Episode We Talk About: What Oral Allergy Syndrome (OAS) is The foods I reacted to for over 20 years Growing up with allergies, asthma, and a reactive immune system The tattoo reactions that landed me in the hospital Anxiety, panic attacks, and fear around food The connection between stress, trauma, and the body Why conventional approaches never gave me the answers I was looking for The embodiment session that changed everything Learning to listen to the wisdom of the body The relationship between nervous system regulation and healing Boundaries, self-trust, and reclaiming personal power Why symptoms may sometimes be invitations rather than enemies The role embodiment played in my healing journey ✨ Important Note This episode shares my personal experience and is not medical advice. Please continue following the recommendations of your healthcare providers regarding allergies, medications, EpiPens, and medical treatment. 🔥 Mentioned in This Episode Embodi Your Wild Women's Retreat A luxurious, witchy, embodied weekend for women ready to reconnect with their bodies, pleasure, erotic power, and wild feminine nature through movement, somatic practices, rest, nature, sisterhood, and deep nourishment.

   Ep. 12 The truth about female pleasure & sexual empowerment | Jenna Switzer

   In this episode of Embodi Your Wild, I sit down with holistic sex coach Jenna Switzer for an open, honest, and deeply empowering conversation about sex, pleasure, intimacy, shame, pelvic floor healing, and what it really means to feel empowered in your body. We talk about the difference between performative sexuality and true embodied intimacy, why so many women feel disconnected from pleasure, and how nervous system regulation, stress, shame, trauma, and everyday life all impact our relationship with sex. Jenna shares her personal journey through purity culture, sexual trauma, pelvic floor healing, and rediscovering her own pleasure — and how that led her into becoming a holistic sex coach helping others reconnect to intimacy in a way that feels safe, authentic, and deeply nourishing. This conversation goes far beyond the bedroom. It’s about learning to feel, soften, receive, communicate, and reconnect to yourself.

   Ep. 11 Empowered birth starts with informed choice | Lyanne Pinto

   I sit down with former midwife and birth advocate Lyanne Pinto for a powerful conversation about birth, informed choice, intuition, and reclaiming trust in the female body. With over 18 years attending births and 13 years working as a midwife, Lyanne shares her perspective on how modern birth culture has become deeply rooted in fear, disconnection, and over-medicalization — and why women deserve better education, deeper support, and true informed choice throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. We talk about empowered birth, nervous system regulation, the connection between the voice and the womb, advocating for yourself within the healthcare system, and how women can reconnect to their intuition and inner knowing during one of the most transformative experiences of their lives. This conversation is raw, honest, empowering, and deeply validating for any woman navigating pregnancy, motherhood, or her relationship with her body.

   Ep. 10 Own your Erotic Energy

   In this episode of Embodi Your Wild, I dive into what erotic energy actually is — beyond sex, beyond seduction, beyond performative femininity. When most people hear the word “erotic,” they immediately think of sex, porn, or being desirable for someone else. But erotic energy is so much deeper than that. It’s your life force. Your creativity. Your aliveness. Your pleasure. Your voice. Your boundaries. Your power. This episode is about reconnecting to the current that lives inside your body and reclaiming the parts of yourself that may have been buried under stress, overgiving, shame, people-pleasing, burnout, trauma, and disconnection. I also guide you through a grounding embodiment practice to help you connect to your womb, your body, and your own erotic energy in a deeper way. 🌹 In This Episode I Talk About: What erotic energy actually is The difference between erotic energy & sexual energy Why so many women feel disconnected from themselves How stress, trauma & overgiving disconnect us from the body Erotic energy as creativity, life force & expansion Boundaries, identity & energetic protection The connection between pleasure, pain & sensation Why pleasure is our birthright How erotic energy impacts money, creativity & self-worth Cycles, nervous system regulation & feminine energy Learning to trust your body’s “full body yes” and “full body no” Reconnecting to yourself through embodiment practices 🔥 Retreat Embodi Your Wild Women’s Retreat A deeper, witchier, more embodied weekend experience for women ready to reconnect to themselves through movement, shadow work, somatics, sisterhood, rest, sensuality, and nature.

   Ep. 9 Two suitcases, a pole & womb work | EmbodiPole Coach Erika

   In this episode of Embodi Your Wild, I sit down with EmbodiPole Coach Erika to explore her journey from Mexico to Canada with nothing but two suitcases and her pole… and how movement became medicine through some of the biggest transitions of her life. We dive into embodiment, womb work, birth, menstrual cycle awareness, voice activation, and the powerful connection between the body, movement, and healing. Erika shares how pole supported her through heartbreak, isolation during the pandemic, and finding home within herself while also stepping into her work as a doula and women’s health educator. This conversation is a reminder that the body holds wisdom… and when women feel safe enough to soften, express, and listen inward, transformation happens. What We Explore: Erika’s move from Mexico to Canada How pole became medicine through life transitions The evolution from acrobatic pole to embodiment & flow Becoming a doula and supporting women through birth The connection between voice, sound & the womb Why women are so disconnected from their bodies Menstrual cycle awareness & reconnecting to feminine rhythms The importance of community and safe spaces for women Embodiment as a pathway to healing, pleasure & self-expression The “Wild Womban” energy and learning to trust the body 🔥 Connect with Karolyne Instagram: @itsmekarolyne @embodipole Learn more about EmbodiPole: www.embodipole.com (http://www.embodipole.com)

   Ep. 8 The magick of the Dark Feminine | Crimson Minx

   I am reuniting with Crimson Minx, the creatrix of Esoeroticism, a movement modality alchemizing erotic dance with esoteric magick. From pushing her body to the brink for pole tricks to burning it all down to surrender to the Dark Feminine, Crimson shares her journey to true erotic liberation.

   Ep. 6 From sport to sensual - her journey to embodiment | EmbodiPole Coach Meghan

   Today, we are sitting down with EmbodiPole Coach Meghan P. for a masterclass in ditching perfectionism and finding true presence in your body. From starting pole strictly for the athletic challenge to discovering her deeply sensual side, Meghan shares exactly what it looks like to evolve from sport to embodiment. She opens up about navigating the duality of being a quiet introvert in her daily life versus holding potent, body-led space in the studio, using movement to heal from a difficult past, and why giving yourself permission to be messy is the secret to true confidence. What We Explore: The Duality of the Dancer: How Meghan balances being reserved in her personal life with being an electric, powerful presence on the pole. Redefining Failure: Her life-changing philosophy of "make it happen first, make it good later" and letting go of the pressure to be perfect. Healing Through Sensuality: How shifting from fitness-focused tricks to body-led embodiment provided a safe container to heal and learn to truly love herself. The Three-Minute High: Why she competes purely for the deep presence and feeling of being in her body on stage and why she rarely watches her own performance videos. Grounding in the Wild: How stepping outside barefoot, feeling the wet grass, and tending to her backyard chickens helps her reset and stay anchored.
