by Kate Leiper
Compelling, vulnerable conversations devoted to the nuanced realms of grief, pleasure and the sometimes messy, always beautiful paradox that exists between the two. Join Kate Leiper, founder of SensuAlchemy School as she asks the question: within a culture that perceives emotional, intuitive and creative intelligence as inferior and avoids pain at all costs, what might change if grief were our compass and pleasure, our medicine?

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When was the last time you let yourself play, dress up, and express your full sensual self freely and without judgment? I believe that many of us are so hungry for these kinds of experiences… particularly if we’ve become disconnected from parts of ourselves that along the way, we decided were frivolous, silly, too much or over indulgent.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today on the podcast, I have such a joyful conversation to share with you. I sat down with the gorgeously sensual and creative Laura Jane Foley and she was every bit as captivating as she is on Instagram!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Laura Jane is founder of Belle Empire Boutique & Events in Tunbridge Wells, England. She is a Feminine Embodiment and Sensuality guide using the modalities of Glamour Magick and Dance immersions to help heal the disconnect within Women. Her varied work and offerings assist women to rebirth into a state of empowerment, embodied pleasure and authentic expression so that they can infuse their life with self acceptance, love and magic.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Laura and I delve into</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">:</span></p> <p>+ How in really feeling the disappointment and sadness that her intimate partnerships haven’t brought her the pleasure and fulfillment she’s craved, Laura has become committed to “feeding” herself these things instead</p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">+ Laura’s belief that we’re completely responsible for our own pleasure in life, and that the “work” is maintaining our own joy without expecting others to fill that space</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">+ Laura’s personal experience of disconnecting to her body in new motherhood and the ways and practices that she devoted to in order to maintain her own unique sense of self</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">+ How sensuality and glamour featured in Laura’s life (even in early motherhood) and how her self-expression in this time challenged other mothers around her</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">+ The difference between putting energy into your appearance for “the benefit of others” under the patriarchal gaze as opposed to expressing yourself in ways that feel sensual and alive purely for yourself</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">+ How the art of burlesque challenges all the cultural expectations we hold about women and celebrates the fullness of every woman exactly as she is</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">+ How Laura teaches women to unlock the parts of themselves that have been oppressed and suppressed and embody their “Burlesque Persona”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">+ Why Laura created her brick and mortar store “Belle Empire” in Tunbridge Wells, UK and how she revels in seeing women learn, play and grow into themselves in this gorgeously evocative space</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">_________________________________________________</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Resources mentioned in this podcast:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/laurajanetheartofwoman/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Follow Laura Jane</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Learn more about Laura Jane's work at <span><a class="x1i10hfl xjbqb8w x1ejq31n xd10rxx x1sy0etr x17r0tee x972fbf xcfux6l x1qhh985 xm0m39n x9f619 x1ypdohk xt0psk2 xe8uvvx xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r xexx8yu x4uap5 x18d9i69 xkhd6sd x16tdsg8 xggy1nq x1a2a7pz x1heor9g xt0b8zv x1bvjpef" href="https://l.instagram.com/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.theartofwoman.co.uk%2F&e=AT1K-EiKgRevgx1a-p6Eu7xWaT7QAE1few1PsnKyKB5hE46vwS4k3H492OpUyEh9-JBBep1qLvMNe0T-u_4W6zn9fagsqJKlVodGVdl_HzWAZf30HHaL31pSW28cJuF8bmDpKwNjpCDS0JLBXImdjLICikOU" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" tabindex="0">www.theartofwoman.co.uk</a></span><span> </span></span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Register for the <a href="http://kateleiper.com/embolden"><span>EMBOLDEN 2-day onlive event</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.kateleiper.com/the-school" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">SensuAlchemy School of Embodied Grief & Pleasure (The school)</a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Leave a podcast review on iTunes <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sensualchemy-school-podcast-with-kate-leiper/id1638457889" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a></span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thought or reflection to share?
