In this episode of Manders Mindset, Amanda Russo sits down with Mallory Kiersten, a self-love and "unstuck-yourself" coach who helps recovering perfectionists and people pleasers reclaim their pleasure and fully embrace their authentic selves.
Mallory introduces us to the fascinating world of the Erotic Blueprints, a framework that’s often described as the “love languages” for intimacy and connection. She breaks down the five blueprints—Energetic, Sensual, Sexual, Kinky, and Shapeshifter—and shares how understanding these types can help you invite more joy, passion, and self-expression into your life.
Key topics discussed include:
- Why pleasure isn’t something you need to “earn” and how to embrace it daily.
- The five Erotic Blueprints and how they apply both inside and outside the bedroom.
- Letting go of societal expectations, shame, and perfectionism to live authentically.
- How small shifts in self-talk can radically change your relationship with yourself.
- The role of safety in creating space for joy, creativity, and connection.
