Description

When the book Eat, Pray Love came out I was worlds away from grabbing my passport and hopping on a flight to find myself.I love the book (and love travel) and I think Elizabeth Gilbert is amazing, but the adventure she so beautifully describes; one woman's search for everything, wasn't happening for this woman. Not then.At the time EPL hit the stands I was hitting the gas on my Mom Taxi hard.Literally and figuratively. I was in the midst of raising & homeschooling 3 boys (which ends up being my most profound spiritual journey to date), caring for 3 dogs, 2 cats and trying to keep that crazy circus running as smoothly as possible. Most days it didn't.  ?My husband was doing his best to survive medical school residency.Our relationship was on the rocks.Bank account? Scary.I was entering midlife exhausted, resentful and wanting more.Way more.I was desperately seeking for sure, but it was clear that my search for everything needed to begin in my own backyard.(Which, btw, was a lovable overgrown 2 acre mess of wildflowers, weeds and baseballs.) And in hindsight thank God & Goddess for that.You don't need to go to Bali, Thailand or Tulum.Sure, retreats can be amazing, but from my experience, that's not where true transformation happens. Plus, as they say re-entry can be a bitch.There's a better way.You can land it in your landscape.Right in the place where you live.And when you do?How sweet it is.You'l be the proud owner of a true, sustainable and lasting transformation that no one can take away from you.Plus, when you do travel?You'll have a hellava lot more fun.PS: Did you make it to Burning Man this year? Me neither. And don't care.  Nothing against the Burn folks but honestly zero FOMO.Let's dive in.Book your free Goddess Activation CallLearn more about the Vital Goddess MastermindCheck out Diana Richardson's books

Welcome to The Vital Goddess Podcast! Hi, I'm Dianne Shepherd, certified holistic sexuality coach with a specialty in the Taoist Jade Egg Practice. In this show we explore an empowering reframe on women, menopause, midlife and beyond. I call midlife and menopause the Passion Portal; a sexual and spiritual rebirth into the richest, most creative, and sexiest chapter of a woman's life. I offer a body/mind/spirit and trauma-informed perspective on Taoist and Tantric practices, somatic sensual healing, and desire-based living. Here we explore all things that support you in reclaiming your pleasure, nourishing your libido naturally, tapping into the power of your Sacred Femme and rebirthing your life at midlife. Your sexual energy is not just about sex. It's the foundation of everything. And midlife is the perfect time to cultivate it.
