Kimberly is a sexological bodyworker, Somatic Experiencing practitioner, and author of The Fourth Trimester, Call of the Wild, and the forthcoming Erotic Seasons, and she has worked with women across birth, postpartum, and menopause long enough to call the standard midlife story out as incomplete.

Access Kelly's Bio Marriage Live Stream here.
In a difficult co-parenting dynamic, it’s easy to assume you’re the more evolved one, and that assumption is exactly what keeps you stuck.
This week’s audacious ask came from a woman who wants cordial, drama-free co-parenting with her ex and asked me how to pull it off without getting pulled into his reactivity.
My answer starts somewhere uncomfortable: the commitment to not speak ill of your son’s father. It’s a healing practice for you, your inner masculine, and your father line...

How can you activate your true feminine energy?
My guest Nina Lombardo teaches conscious intimacy, polarity, and sacred feminine practice at Way of Devotion, and she's one of the few voices in this space who refuses to sell an outcome.
We start with her own arc from what she calls "puddleness" into a woman with a spine, and how that reshaped the way she now teaches women coming from the opposite direction: armored, ambitious, over-functioning.

Lindsey Lockett is a trauma integrator and relational weaver who woke up to her own healing hamster wheel inside a psych hospital.

Psychiatric medications only make you worse.
A Yale study found that 1 in 23 people prescribed an antidepressant go on to be diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and the field calls that "unmasking" rather than causation.
I trained as one of the first 300 reproductive psychiatrists in the world, and I stopped writing prescriptions in 2010 after research on long-term outcomes reframed everything I'd been taught about efficacy and safety.
