In this weeks episode, Lera, the founder and CEO of The Whole Womanhood, and I discuss the importance of courage and self-development for women. She highlights the disconnect between what women want and their health, emphasizing the need to understand our bodies and desires. Lera also explores the impact of societal expectations on women's well-being and the importance of rewilding and embracing both masculine and feminine energy. She emphasizes the need for critical thinking and storytelling in healthcare and the importance of addressing root causes and understanding the body. Lera also discusses the dangers of fear mongering and excessive supplementation and the interplay between genes, environment, and triggers in health. Our conversation explores the importance of understanding the root causes of health issues and the need for a holistic approach. We emphasize the mind-body connection and the role of embodiment and sensuality in healing. She also highlights the significance of self-worth and investing in oneself, as well as the importance of modeling behavior and breaking the cycle for future generations. We discuss the need for creating space and boundaries for self-care and the reclaiming of the feminine and emotional fluidity. We even explored the connection between orgasm and emotional release. We discussed the priceless details of the impact of stress on women's sexual health and the pressure to have sex. We explore the importance of reevaluating priorities and worth, as well as embracing change and pleasure. We encourage people to question societal norms and the shame associated with endings and completion. We conclude with a discussion on taking the first steps towards improving women's health and well-being.
