Kendall: I am so excited to introduce you to Elisa Valdes, the founder of Goddus Rising. Without further ado, I would love to just dive in and start to you share a little bit about who you are and how you shine your light on the planet.
Elisa: I am the owner founder of goddess rising. My business, is really my movement. It's spelled G O D D U S as in us goddesses. We rise together. I's all about tapping into your feminine divinity, your sensuality, your sexuality. My photo shoot sessions are not just your typical photoshoots. They are a self identity and self-awareness, conscious therapeutic investments. I very much love working with all different types of women. I don't believe in Photoshop.

Today I want to introduce you to Michelle Coops and we're going to talk all about being a brand rebel today. I would love for you to give us a little introduction and how you shine your light on the planet and what your story is and what makes you, you.
Michelle: I'm looking at the world and I see all these amazing people, all of these amazing souls who are on some level, all of us are still feeling like we need to adjust a little bit. Like we need to show up in a way that society tells us to as if you know the rules outside of us, not our rules, not our truth, but you know, the rules outside of us are determining how we need to lead our lives and I'm looking at a lot of people who are not fully happy with that. They're not really feeling, feeling whole and there is a level of, you know, feeling stuck or tied up kind of like there's this contraction and I am no different obviously, but the thing is, you know, we've...
Kendall: Today we have a really incredible and very special guests joining us. I'm so honored to introduce our guests today. We have Dominique who is the CEO and Co-founder of the Healthy Pleasure Group.
Dominnique: My story really started, when I became a mOm without knowing I was a mom. I was pregnant at the time and I had been offered an opportunity to come and talk on BBC radio as a co-host and as a guest. If you don't know this about me, I'm quite opinionated. I grew up with the notion that I had a voice, a choice and an opinion, but it doesn't mean that it always would go your way. I started to talk about things like menstrual periods and pleasure and racism. Then I had my baby girl and it was a really low for a lot of moms. It was a really lonely time and postnatal, depression, wasn't really a topic. I started to really question and this...

What does that even mean? So often when I talk to people and they say, what do you do? And I answer the question with, I am a sex coach. People will either lean in and say, Ooh, tell me more about that. Or they get, tend to shy away and get highly uncomfortable with the conversation. This is something that has always fascinated me is what are people's reaction to this idea of sex and sexuality. As a society, we tend to put sexuality in this box that we take all of these different thoughts and perceptions and ideas and how we were raised in religion and what we see on TV or in romantic movies. And it shapes our perception of what sex and sexuality is. For many people. This idea, this box is filled with shame and guilt and frustration and lack of awareness and fear.
When we start to take out this box, we dust it off. We open up the box and we start to remove...
