Historical Disconnection and Empowerment

00:00:00
Speaker
Well, I mean, really the core root of that disconnection is that it literally, you know, it, it no longer became safe to be a woman. It no longer became safe to be in our full power of our sexuality, of our body, of our pussy, right? Because we were, we were repressed. We were with extreme systematic violence, right? We, it was, right we would get shunned from society if we were you know, empowered in our sexuality. Right. And so, and so that's the core of it. Like it literally, literally was not safe for us to be inhabited in these places. Right. And so, and so as mothers, it wasn't safe. And so then we teach our daughters that like, don't dress like that. Don't act like that. Don't walk like that. Right. And then, and so all of this repression then creates distortion. So we do have all of these, like,
00:00:48
Speaker
terrible ways that then sexuality does get expressed because it's so repressed and there's so much shame and so it creates this toxic distortion. Welcome to Freed and Powered Up. Here is where conscious female leaders who are taking their exit from the overly dominant male patriarchal energy, however you experienced it, can really start to break free from the energy that keeps us back from being who we came here to be and leaving the legacy we came here to leave.

Pussy Centered Living Explained

00:02:55
Speaker
I am in Oregon in the United States.
00:02:58
Speaker
And I am a sexuality and empowerment coach. um I also work in the and just in the and all the realms of sex, love, relationships. um But really what I focus as the foundation of my work is the reclamation of what I call pussy. And so with that, I have created a body of work that I call Pussy Centered Living, which is a phrase that came to me years ago when I was in my own pussy revolution, as I like to call it. And I just had this phrase like Pussy Centered Living, Pussy Centered Living, and it wouldn't go away. And um at the time, I was actually working as a birth coach, not not in the sense of like a doula, but really in like the emotional and and psychological support for women as they're getting ready for birth. And I had a
00:03:47
Speaker
You know, I had a Facebook group called Sacred Birth Conscious Mama. It was so beautiful. But this phrase, pussy-centered living, just like wouldn't leave me alone. and And I was working with a business coach at the time and I was like, Ana, I think I need to open up a new group and call it pussy-centered living. And she's like, no, you just need to change the name of your group right now.
00:04:07
Speaker
And I had like, oh, wow. And there and I was like, Oh, can I do that? um Just Mama's like, like I know. And she's like, Yes, do it. And so I did it and haven't looked back since then. And yeah, some of the conscious mamas were like, we cannot be here anymore. Like I cannot even handle that word.
00:04:25
Speaker
A lot of them are like, I don't know what's going on here, but I do like you. So let me stick around and see what's happening. um But yeah, that was really the beginning. And so from then I have developed my own online school, which is the School of Pussy-Centered Living. I host the Pussy-Centered Living podcast, which is where we originally met because i i we were connected through some mutual connections. And hearing your story, I was like, oh, I want her on the podcast.

Jenny's Personal Journey and Challenges

00:04:55
Speaker
And yeah so that's really what i do in my professional life and other than that i'm also a mom of three i have a fifteen year old a thirteen year old and a seven year old and i have an amazing life partner my husband and we just celebrated our fifteen wedding anniversary and we've been together for almost seventeen years.
00:05:15
Speaker
Yay, congratulations. Oh, listen, so there's just so much that we get to, just in your introduction, there's so much that we get to dive into. And I know our listeners are like, what the hell? Like, what? What? Like, it just, I'm sure the questions are like, just what? What? What? Like, who do what?
00:05:39
Speaker
i
00:05:42
Speaker
So let's dive in. Let's do it. Okay, so here we go. First, it's I really love the way that you described or started to introduce some of your story because typically, you know, when we're interviewing someone, it's like, yeah, tell us part of your story, the background, you know, context. And no one has ever used the word. I had a pussy revolution. um So we now get to find out
00:06:16
Speaker
What is that? What is that? And what was it like for you? Yeah. Yeah. So some context of what led me to it, um as I mentioned, I have three children. And, you know, when my yeah my children are, you know, children, they're amazing, they're magical, like all of the things. And also becoming a mother was extremely hard for me.
00:06:42
Speaker
Um, it was honestly like it was, it was a traumatic experience in a way, not anything to do. Like we had, I had beautiful home births. Like I was supported by family, like all of that stuff, but just going into the journey of motherhood was just so.
00:06:59
Speaker
I mean, yeah it was just life changing for me in beautiful ways and also really challenging ways. And so, and then also my first two kids are only two years apart, which was also um really hard for me to have a young child and a baby. um I also, another little juicy tidbit of the story is that my husband and I, um we got pregnant with our first child a month into our relationship.
00:07:22
Speaker
And I was much younger. I was 24. I didn't ever think I would be having kids that young. And so it was definitely just, and it it felt right. Like we always knew it was right, but it was just a complete turnaround of my world very quickly. And so I found myself in this place where everything in my life looked like perfect on paper. Like I was married to the love of my life. We had these beautiful children.
00:07:46
Speaker
We had moved um back to the beautiful countryside of Oregon where I was from. My parents were living down the road. And yet I felt, but I felt, I don't know if we can use curse words on this podcast. Yeah, absolutely. I felt like shit every day. Like I felt like shit.
00:08:04
Speaker
And a part of it was because I had always thought of myself as such such a relaxed, chill person. But then motherhood just like put me into this like, go, go, go, do, do, do. I have a to-do list a mile long. and and not And when we moved back home to the country, I also you know thought I wanted to be a

Neglecting Pleasure and Self-Care

00:08:22
Speaker
homeschooling mom. And we were had a little farm. We were raising literally all of our own food.
00:08:28
Speaker
And instead of like living in the pleasure and the beauty of this life I had created for myself, I was honestly miserable. I was exhausted. I was pushing myself so hard every day. um I would literally think to myself, like wow, I feel like shit, but like at least I got something done. And pleasure was literally not even a word in my vocabulary. like I was like, who has time for pleasure? I got shit to do. So let me just pause here for a moment. Yeah. yeah Let me just speak to the mama and who is feeling every word that you are saying right now and able to just just exhale in the fact that it's not just you that this is in fact how
00:09:21
Speaker
multi-million of mama's feel when you're in the throw of it. Yeah. And you're not crazy. Yeah. And yeah. Yeah. You you are feeling what?
00:09:37
Speaker
Many, if not most of us have felt ah when we're thrown into the fires of mamahood. And just know that we love you and we accept you and it's okay. It's okay that you're feeling what you're feeling right now and that we absolutely 100% identify with you in this moment.
00:10:04
Speaker
You are at home and you are with sisters. Just wanted to share that with you. Hmm, I'm so glad you shared that. It would have been a really beautiful message for me to have received back in those days. Because I would and because i had children quite young and unexpectedly. I was like the first of my friends. um Thankfully, I did connect with um you know quite a few people from the midwives that I had for my first two children. So I did have some support there. But it's really hard. And so I was kind of you know i was going through all of this.
00:10:37
Speaker
um Also, from the birth of my children, I started to have a lot of pain in sex and Sexuality was something that I had always really enjoyed, but I did have a pattern with past partners where you know we would have these like juicy, turned-on, beautiful sex lives together until about like six months into the relationship, and then my desire would just like disappear.
00:11:03
Speaker
And so I was really terrified because I was just like so in love with my husband and I was just really terrified that that would happen with us. um But you know, that like the hormones of pregnancy, like my pregnancy hormones make me really horny.
00:11:25
Speaker
We had our first and then I was pregnant again not too long after I'm like, okay, I'm just kind of like riding these like horny pregnancy, like hormones, like the rate is perfect. But I was just like terrified that that would, you know, follow the same pattern.

Reconnecting with the Body through 'Wild Feminine'

00:11:38
Speaker
And then, um and then I really did like, even though I didn't have any, you know, physical tearing or anything like that for my birth,
00:11:45
Speaker
sex was so painful for me for months and months and months and months after both of my births. Um, in fact, I remember my midwives after my first baby was like, we're like, okay, yeah, you need to wait, you know, six weeks until you have sex so your body can heal. And so I was like, okay, great, six weeks and we'll be good to go. No, it was like excruciatingly painful for me for seven months.
00:12:07
Speaker
after the birth seven months, full seven months to the point where I was, I was like, Oh my gosh, like maybe, like maybe this is just what happens when you have a baby. Cause I'd never heard anybody talk about this before. You know, like no one had prepared me and it was really like, it it brought me a lot of anguish. Cause I was like, what if I can never enjoy sex again? But thankfully it kind of you know, resolved itself over time. um My second was born my daughter and shortly after she was born, a really good friend of mine gave me this book called Wild Feminine by Tamilyn Kent. And are you familiar with it? I am. That's a good book. So she handed me this book and she's like, we didn't use the word pussy back then. She's like, um, she's like, this book is about a lot of things, but she teaches you how to do your own Yoni massage. And I was like, and my first initial reaction was like, Oh, thank you. But like, I don't need that. Like I'm good.
00:13:04
Speaker
Well, can I ask you, can I ask you really quick? What do you feel was, what was behind that reaction? If you, if you thought about it now, like, and Well, I, I've definitely noticed like a lot of the things in my life that have turned out to be like the biggest medicine I need. It's kind of like my initial reaction is like, Oh, I'm good.
00:13:25
Speaker
thats stuff Maybe it some kind of like subconscious resistance to like the change that whatever that thing is is going to bring. But I mean, honestly, at that point, like I thought of myself as very liberated, you know, the the the pregnancy and and birthing experience were really like powerful. And I felt like a really like, you know,
00:13:44
Speaker
empowered woman like birthing my babies at home and all of this stuff. But the truth was is like I had so much shame around my my body and my sexuality that I was completely unaware of. And it was honestly her giving me that book. And so I was like, all right, she's like my best friend. So I guess I'll take a look. And I read like the first page. I was immediately just like so sucked in.
00:14:05
Speaker
And I realized, even reading that book, just like how much shame I had around the word vagina, how much shame I just had around like my sexuality, my my pussy. like i didn't like I couldn't even look at her. like I thought she was ugly. and And so it was really powerful. And the the book really focuses more you know on the pelvic goal in general and and the energetics of it. And so that really brought me into my first reclamation, like the the very beginning of the pussy revolution, um, was like coming into this energy of my pelvic bowl, like really, you know, reclaiming that and working with that and, and suddenly starting to listen to my body. I hadn't quite and gotten into pleasure yet, but even as just a small example, like I used to run around like, you know, washing the dishes and doing all the things and I wouldn't stop to go pee. Even though I had to go pee, I would just ignore it. Right. Cause I was too busy washing the dishes to stop and go pee. Yes. Yes.

Societal Shame and Reclamation of Power

00:14:59
Speaker
Definitely a common experience. definitely and it And it speaks so much more to... I think the indoctrination and projection of we are meant to yeah make sure that everybody else is okay and everything else is done and take care of everything and everyone and we get to be last. And that is what sacrificial living is. And that makes you you know a better mom and a better woman and a better wife. And ah and and meanwhile, you we cause ourselves this ease physically, mentally, emotionally, right?
00:15:36
Speaker
um Yeah. And so yeah, super common experience. Just wanted to say that. And yeah, thank you for for sharing that. I feel like there are so many that not I feel like I know, based on conversations with women, conversations with women in The Goddess Collective and, you know, clients and just talking with, just talking and being with women that this is such relatable commonalities between us. Yeah, and I um ah came across that book a while feminine when I was talking to a pelvic bowl and practitioner, I guess, and therapist. And I came across that same experience when you, what you talk about like the,
00:16:28
Speaker
the discovery, I guess, or the aha moment that I actually have shame about my own body parts, right? um I remember... and Aha that I had about that when I read the book and disrupt her yeah and um And she talks about shame around bringing pads and tampons, you know as you're paying for it and like hiding it underneath the Underneath the food or the cereal or whatever because you know because we're ashamed about that part which in fact is what
00:17:01
Speaker
births humanity, right? And creates civilizations and that we don't have the need to be um ashamed about that. And so really, are you saying that the ability to o to embrace, to accept, to take pride about our feminine body parts and our bodies and who we are, that that is part of pussy centered living?
00:17:30
Speaker
100%, 100%. And yeah, I mean, because, so we have been disconnected from pussy, right? From our sexuality, from our feminine selves for centuries because of patriarchy. And so, and and pussy, right? She really is like our source, like,
00:17:54
Speaker
the source of our life force energy right the source of of who we are the source of so much and and i will just say here really quickly you know when i do use the word pussy like i'm not only talking about that physical anatomy on our body i'm not only talking about our sexuality You know, I really use pussy to absolutely include those aspects, but also just, you know, ga we could talk about it more of like the the core of our feminine selves, right? She also encompasses our emotions, like our feminine qualities and our feminine energy, like the core of who we are. And so when we go about our lives being
00:18:33
Speaker
usually it starts off right being so unconsciously how disconnected we are we're literally disconnected from this most powerful source inside of us right and so and we end up doing what I was doing which was running myself ragged because my only value that I get put upon myself was in my productivity right which is why I couldn't even stop to go pee when I was whatever washing the dishes cooking whatever I was doing right and so This, like, what happens when we are unconsciously rejecting a part of ourself because there's shame, because there's disconnection? We can't truly be in the full power of who we are. We can't truly be in full acceptance and full of love or full, you know, full of love for who we are when we are rejecting this part of ourself, when we're ashamed of this part of ourself, which isn't a little part, right? Which is, like I said, a little bit more
00:19:30
Speaker
most powerful source of who we are. Not who we are, but ah like humanity. Right? Exactly. i mean And so um Yeah, I really want to dig in and dive into this because um before I read the book, entitled Pussy by Regina Thomas-Housen, I think is her name. and power Regina Thomas-Shower. Thomas a-Shower, thank you. Before I read the book,
00:20:02
Speaker
or listen to it because it was on audio. um I would have been one of those women in your group that would have been like, I can't handle this. I can't handle this word. Like, we're using it too much. Why are we doing this? Why are we writing it, using it, speaking it? Why are we doing this? And I got to go. Before I read her book,
00:20:21
Speaker
And it really unlocked me. It really enlightened me. I really do feel like it reconnected me. I feel like it was a big piece of reconnecting me to the divine feminine. And so because of that, I really would like to talk about Why do you use the word? How do we get back to, why are we so disconnected from it? Because I think that that's an important conversation. Because you know as I was telling the women in my collective, words have power until we disempower them. And I feel like the fact that we were so uncomfortable with it is
00:21:06
Speaker
not and It's not necessarily our fault, right? There was this whole super overly you know patriarchal masculine energy that that helped that total separation and disconnection. And yeah, I really would like to talk about that the disconnection that came down both verbally and energetically.
00:21:30
Speaker
Well, I mean, really the core root of that disconnection is that it literally, you know, it, but it no longer became safe to be a woman. It no longer became safe to be in our full power of our sexuality, of our body, of our pussy, right? Because we were, we were repressed. We were with extreme systematic violence, right? We, it was, right we would get shunned from society if we were you know, empowered in our sexuality. Right. And so, and so that's the core of it. Like it literally, literally was not safe for us to be inhabited in these places. Right. And so, and so as mothers, it wasn't safe. And so then we teach our daughters that like, don't dress like that. Don't act like that. Don't walk like that. Right. And then, and so all of this repression then creates distortion. So we do have all of these, like,
00:22:18
Speaker
like terrible ways that then sexuality does get expressed because it's so repressed and there's so much shame. And so it creates this toxic distortion. And so I, you know, I love that you brought up the book Pussy and, and why that word specifically is so

Reclaiming Feminine Words for Empowerment

00:22:33
Speaker
powerful. And I love that for you, like you went from being to somebody who'd be like, Oh, why do I have to go?
00:22:40
Speaker
no like letting that be a connection for you with your feminine right to the divine feminine and so that's a really similar to the experience I had where I'll kind of like fast forward my story a little bit but like you know things happened I had a third child born once again after my third child was born I had a full year of having experience cruciatingly painful sex, even though, you know, I didn't tear anything in my birth. And so once that happened, I was like, okay, this is a sign from my body that I need to go deeper here. Like there is something here. I need to go into this and explore.
00:23:18
Speaker
And so I won't go into the full details of how that all happened, but you know, I started down on this path. I um i i started taking a course um for an ecstatic birth practitioner training program, because as I said, I was working as a birth coach at the time, found this woman. She's the one who even opened me up to the concept of pleasure, where I was like, oh, oh, pleasure. Oh, interesting.
00:23:44
Speaker
have
00:23:47
Speaker
but but And not my like sexual pleasure, right? But like, pleasure in our lives and our being, like, what? Imagine that. Imagine, like, wait a minute, just casual pleasure? just Just random act of pleasure? Or I have done everything on my to-do list? Like, what are you about? In the middle of the day? Oh, no. What are you saying?
00:24:15
Speaker
ah but And so it was that same woman, Sheila Camara. Hey, it's her name. She's amazing. I love her. Um, but it was actually through her course so that she introduced us to Regina Thomas Shower, also known Mama Gina. And as soon as I heard Regina speak, I was like, Oh, what, what is this? And so, yeah, I got the book pussy a reclamation. And I mean, it was just, it was like a light bulb full body, just like, Oh my gosh, this is it. Because so at that point, you know, I had been working on reclaiming, like,
00:24:47
Speaker
my my feminine energy and and my pelvic bowl and it felt like this really beautiful like divine feminine energy but kind of this like floaty ephemeral like oh so beautiful and sacred and la la la and then like the word pussy it felt like it took all that energy and it like really ground it into my body And so not only was it the like beautiful and like divine and all of those sides of the things, but it was also like the real and the raw and the emotions and the blood and the like the realness, like the embodiment.
00:25:22
Speaker
of this feminine energy like in my body and i was just like with me chills just even saying that and i was just like oh like this like there's just no going back like once missy once missy came into my life there was just like no going back and so i ended up actually going to new york and being with mama jina in person for one of her experiences And that kind of took me down. it was And it was then after that, a few months after that, when the pussy-centered living phrase started going through my head and continued down this road where I am now. But but that is why. And so going back to your your point of like that that words can have a lot of power until we reclaim that. And and I wouldn't even say it's like it's not that reclaiming pussy, it it takes away the power over us.
00:26:10
Speaker
and gives us the power back. right Because the way Pussy is used before we reclaim that, it's something bad, it's something weak, it's something nobody wants to be called, it's derogatory. right Exactly. if exactly go ahead and now I was going to say, and not only the word pussy, but and all they were the other words, right? like I know she talks about the C-U-N-T, you know the cunt word, and like other words that were assigned to it to just continue to use it as derogatory and negative. right um and What's interesting
00:26:45
Speaker
is that you mostly hear it used as derogatory towards men. And even though that is so, just being around that energy and that practice,
00:27:05
Speaker
caused us to be shameful exactly of our own body part. exactly Exactly. And once again, it just reflects the extreme you know repression and rejection of all things feminine, not only for men or not only for women, right but also for men, because the feminine, the masculine, these are energetics that live within all of us. like Yes, women are really a embodied representation of what we can call the feminine, but women, we have feminine and masculine inside of us just as men have absolutely and feminine inside of them. And so, so much, you know, what the pat the patriarchy has really negatively affected
00:27:42
Speaker
all humans, right? Because the feminine is an essential part of of of everything, right? And the rejection of that for all of us has created just this this toxicity, these toxic distortions, which really, I honestly, I'm like, basically the way I see it, every violent, destructive, like unjust thing that happens in the world basically comes down to the rejection of pussy.

Visualizing Respect for Feminine Energy

00:28:07
Speaker
affection of the fe If we all accept, then we could solve world hunger. Let's just stop for a moment and just imagine that. If ever if we could just snap our fingers, wave have a magic wand, and from this moment out, everybody embraced honored, loved, the feminine, loved pussy, because when you love the feminine, when you love pussy, that also activates the highest in the masculine.
00:28:37
Speaker
Hey, infinitely expanding soul. How could I let you leave this podcast episode without knowing about an amazing opportunity to know yourself deeper and fall so madly in love with yourself that you ooze it out in everything that you do. To know your life path for certain and erase the doubt. To know your soul's purpose and what it came here to work out and the cycle it came to complete. To know where your major energies are aligning in your talents and your gifts. and where your major energies are aligning with your wealth consciousness. Yes, more money. And maybe most importantly, how to integrate it all into your life so that we stop spinning in circles trying to figure all this shit out in a world that hopes that we don't.
00:29:22
Speaker
in a super tight container with some energy clearing, laser coaching, and a vortex of women who are about not only their transformation, but they're about yours too so that there's no room for leaving this space without getting what you came for.

00:29:58
Speaker
And so for me, all of a sudden deeply loved and honored and respected pussy in all she and like in all she encompasses, like, yeah, I actually have no doubt world hunger would be solved. Like I have no like violence and oppression everywhere would dissipate, right? Yeah. Yeah. I'm in one i'm in full agreement.
00:30:21
Speaker
I'm in full agreement, and so the school, I'm going to flash the link, and those who can click on it can go right to the website. I'm in full agreement, and so these schools need to be like franchised and just need to be all over so that we can solve the world's issues. There's something else that you said, and I can't believe it, but we're already getting close to time. I was like, really, Latoya, we're going to speak for 30 minutes?
00:30:50
Speaker
How can you? It needs to be a series. That's what needs to happen. It needs to be like a three-part series. And then, of course, they can head on over to your podcast as well. um But there's something that you said that i i that you know just kind of pinged to me where in this overly you know dominant masculine energy society that we and construct that we are working and living in now, the focus on productivity and and aha just came to me also in that we sometimes separate ourselves from the pleasure that the pussy can bring because we have adopted it into the culture of productivity. And so it, it, and it needs to produce, right? It needs to produce certain amount of times a week it needs to produce, you know, however long within that one sexual encounter, right? And we have,
00:31:50
Speaker
um, whatever movies, videos, you know, songs or whatever that, that project, I think this energy of productivity on this energy that really was meant for pleasure. Yeah. Give me chills speaking about that. Like, yeah, I absolutely agree. I actually, I'll do this is last little thing I'll say here, but I was just, um, reading another woman's post on Facebook who really works a lot with like the energy of like,
00:32:18
Speaker
the womb and the ovaries, which was so beautiful. And she was putting out this post where she was saying like, pussy is not a portal. Like the womb is the true portal, which I have my own idea about that, but whatever. But it was just interesting. Like she had a ton of comments on this post and people were like, oh yeah, people just use pussy because it sells because it's flashy because it brings attention. And I was just, you know I felt my blood boiling a little bit. right I'm so glad that activated you. Sorry, I put my own comment on that post.
00:32:51
Speaker
but but What you're saying, the reason I'm bringing this up is because what you just said there, I'm like, oh, that's exactly why people, why the people who are commenting like, oh, it's just, you know, pussy, like the womb is where it's really at.

Critique of Productivity Expectations on Women

00:33:03
Speaker
Pussy is like superficial, just like the sex appeal. It's like, it's exactly that because people are projecting this productivity, this toxic masculine projection onto what pussy is. And like, is the womb a vital,
00:33:17
Speaker
Portal that we get to claim like yeah, she's like the portal of life and death for sure And also pussy is a portal right like she's a portal into that. She's a gateway into that and And and I you know, I think womb like healing reclamation is also so vital But I really see that in that it's easy to bypass the sexuality piece right because once again safe We have shame, we're afraid of it. And so that's why I really focus on Pussy because she really like encompasses just the full range of like of our source, of our power, of what we get to reclaim. So anyway, thank you for sharing that insight. That's really potent and I really love that. Yeah, so beautiful. And thank you so much for bringing that up because now I'm activated. I'm activated. No, because here's the thing again,
00:34:10
Speaker
um words have power until we disempower them. And it really bothers me that if a word or a phrase catches on and it becomes super popular, then now all of a sudden and we're like, oh, it's just for money or it's just for, you know, it's just for but sales or it's just for whatever it is. But it is still powerful and it still is right. It still has its own essence.
00:34:37
Speaker
it still has its core energy. So, you know, I was asked not too long ago about the divine feminine energy and, you know, this this word now is like, you know, cliche and people just using it. But it is a thing and it is still powerful and it is still necessary and it is still important for us to connect to it, embody it, embrace it and and and be activated in it. No matter how many times it's used or no matter how many people may be misusing it or misguided by it,
00:35:06
Speaker
Yes, that is a thing in and of itself. It doesn't get to disempower the core energy of it. And so, okay, more people are using the word pussy. Okay. More things are coming out, labeled it. Okay. More things are okay. It doesn't get to disempower the power that it holds essentially in itself.
00:35:29
Speaker
So thank you for activating me in that way. i like to express that and You can put your own comment on there. Absolutely. Absolutely. Okay. It's been such a beautiful and juicy conversation. And now we get to talk about the school
