If you have spent your life contorting yourself to fit inside rules, roles, or identities that feel too small for your soul—you have arrived at the right place and I am thrilled to Permission Granted, a wilder intimacy podcast.
Through my work at Wilder Intimacy Coaching, I guide people through the complex terrains of sex, intimacy, devotional kink, religious trauma recovery, and somatic healing. But whether we are talking about the bedroom, the boardroom, or the altar, the core struggle is often the same: we are exhausted from performing who we were taught to be.
I created this podcast to be an antidote to hustle culture and the endless "self-improvement" treadmill. We aren’t here to fix you—because you aren’t broken. We are here to explore what happens when you stop asking for approval and start listening to the truth of your own body.
Episode 01: Navigating Perimenopause with Beth Buchanan
For our debut episode, I am thrilled to sit down with my beloved friend and collaborator, Beth Buchanan of Well Nourished.
While my work often deals with the architecture of desire and the nervous system, Beth is a master of the biology that fuels it. We cannot have a "wilder" life—one full of deep intimacy, spiritual connection, and erotic aliveness—if our bodies are running on fumes.
If you are a woman navigating the wild ride of perimenopause, or simply feeling "fried" by the demands of modern life, this conversation is the exhale you’ve been waiting for.
In this episode, we explore:
- The Fasting Myth: Why popular diet trends like intermittent fasting may actually be starving your hormones and stressing your ovaries (and why "discipline" isn't always the answer).
- The "Fried" Nervous System: Why you can eat all the "right" organic foods but still feel exhausted if your body is stuck in survival mode.
- From Fixing to Nourishing: How to shift from treating your body like a problem to be solved to treating her like your oldest, dearest ally.
- Radiant Rebuild: A look at how we are blending functional nutrition with somatic "voodoo magic" to help women reclaim their energy and identity.
This Is Just the Beginning
This podcast is a space for the conversations we’ve been told are "too much." In future episodes, we will travel deeper into the realms of erotic sovereignty, the alchemy of shame, recovering from high-control religion, and the spiritual power of pleasure.
But today, we start with the foundation: giving yourself permission to nourish your body during the "zone of chaos."
It’s time to loosen the grip of shame and come home to yourself.
Permission Granted.
