Today we have a unique and inspiring guest, Erica Weiderluht, the founder of We The Light. Erica didn’t exactly choose her work — it actually chose her. What started as dabbling in the spiritual and woo quickly transitioned into a full career, helping others find their confidence and create more joy in their lives to get to the root of what’s holding them back.
Erica's journey began in 2013, transitioning from spiritual coaching to focusing on sex, love, relationships, and pleasure (not just sexual). In this episode, Erica shares her deeply personal story of overcoming struggles with anxiety and self-doubt to empower others to embrace their worthiness, confidence, and pleasure.
Her background in acting has significantly influenced her current work, leading to a seamless blend of personal development that enhances both personal and professional life. We discuss her approach to corporate talks where she addresses how self-love and sexual empowerment can significantly impact professional performance and overall job satisfaction.
With her innovative methods, including workshops and one-on-one coaching sessions featuring traditional talk therapy, visualizations, meditations, and practical exercises, Erica provides tangible tools to integrate pleasure and self-care into our daily routines. Erica shares how individuals can make small yet significant changes in their daily tasks to incorporate more joy and relaxation, thus preventing the exhaustion that often comes with demanding professional roles. We also touch on the critical role of community and support systems in normalizing self-care practices, particularly in a work environment that may not always prioritize mental and emotional well-being.
Erica's holistic approach emphasizes that our lives don't have to be compartmentalized into work and personal spheres — everything is interconnected. By embracing pleasure and confidence, we unlock the potential for a truly fulfilling life.
