Radiantly Awakened with Emelitta Da Silva

In this episode I interview GS Youngblood, author of the book, The Masculine in Relationship. This book is a game-changer. It has changed so many lives & benefited countless relationships (including my own!) which is why I’m so honoured to have GS on the podcast.

What we cover:

GS tells his story of being in a marriage, struggling with feeling emasculated and how this pushed him to start the journey of truly living from his masculine core
GS explains what masculine / feminine polarity means & the benefits of working with these polarities
How the man’s way of showing up in a relationship can impact his feminine partners level of openness or contribute to her closing off
How feminine partners can express themselves to their masculine partners & inspire their partner to do “the work”
The 3 pillars of the Masculine Blueprint (Respond vs React, Provide Structure & Create Safety) & how this relates to the Stoic, A**hole, & Nice Guy archetypes
How embodiment is crucial for breaking dysfunctional patterns & how it is the #1 thing men can do to benefit their relationships & their capacity for intensity
Finding the middle ground between the nice guy & the alpha a**hole
Why takes so long for men to seek help, usually before it’s too late, & solutions to this

I hope you find so much wisdom within this episode to help benefit your relationships & your life. Let me know how this landed for you by sending me a DM on Insta.

Lots of love,

Emelitta

GS coaches men in relationship how to live, love, and lead from their Masculine core. He is the author of "The Masculine in Relationship", which lays out a three-part blueprint for developing more Masculine energy. He is also the author of "The Art of Embodiment for Men", which teaches men how to build and maintain a daily embodiment practice, which is the #1 thing a man can do to build his Masculine core. His work in this domain of Masculine leadership pulls in principles from a variety of fields: psychology, spirituality, martial arts, tango, meditation, and BDSM.

GS also online courses and live coaching opportunities, including his flagship workshop that helps men develop more dark sexual energy.

Episode #13: Experiencing the Full Spectrum of Yourself Through Embodiment with Laura Escudero

My somatic psychotherapist has helped me with so, so much and I am SO excited to have her on the podcast. Laura is someone with a wealth of experience, knowledge, compassion & brings so much richness to my life. This is such a great episode.

We go into:

Laura’s journey with embodiment through yoga, dance, plant medicine & how her health issues inspired her to connect deeper with her body
Laura’s take on what somatics & embodiment actually mean & why incorporating a mind-body approach is such a strong part of repatterning trauma
Why talk therapy alone may not be enough to heal
The true gifts of embodiment & how it impacts our life
Embodiment as a social justice act
Having compassion for ourselves when we go back into old patterns
Emelitta’s story of how she used to bypass her needs & how she identifies, speaks & meets her needs now
People dancing on Instagram & calling it embodiment - is it empowerment or attention seeking?
Trauma & hypersexuality vs sexual repression - finding the middle ground
What does it mean to be “trauma informed” & why do people think it’s a cult?

Hope you love it so much! Let us know how it lands.

Lots of love,
