Women of Impact

It’s Lisa Bilyeu here with a truly BEAUTIFUL episode of Women of Impact for you that will actually change the way you perceive & judge your emotions and how you “deal” with them.
Today I’m joined by the unbelievable Dr. Anita Phillips, a trauma therapist and mental health expert that is SO DAMN GOOD at empowering women like you to actually find safety in your body and your emotions again.
Dr. Anita gets SOOO real and honest with her incredible insights into WHY we deny our emotions so much and how this has a knock on effect to our confidence.
The reality is, your emotions are not your enemy – they are actually bodily experiences that INFORM your thinking (not the other way around)!!

We also dive into:
- How to turn your pain into power (especially after a heartbreak, or when you feel lost or been betrayed!)
- How your emotions are like hunger pains & what happens when you ignore them
- Why we negotiate pain & how that, PLUS the fear of the future, holds us back
- The POWER that comes from sitting with your “WHAT IFs” instead of ignoring them
- Why you MUST experience the pain or it will never leave you (and will actually multiply!)
- How confidence is faithfulness to yourself
- Why we need love, hope and faith or we will experience a lot of sadness, anger and fear

And that’s just what we cover in part 1 of this 2 part episode!
Dr. Anita has SOOO many amazing experiences and insights to share, so you can stop living in your fears and start to be more powerful and confident in your life.

If you’ve ever felt like sensuality just isn’t for you, or you’ve labeled yourself “not that kind of woman,” think again! In part two of this mind-blowing conversation with Seema Anand, we uncover the modern (and ancient!) blueprint for embodying real, joyful, unapologetic pleasure, at any stage of life.
We dig into why “ornamentation” and beauty aren’t about being still and perfect, but about movement, play, and energy. You’ll never look at confidence, or your own body, the same way again. Plus, (warning: myth-busting ahead!) we zero in on self-exploration, the hidden shame around fantasy, and exactly how to start expressing your needs, even if you’ve been silenced your whole life. The secrets you need to spark desire, stability, and confidence are all right here.
Whether you’re struggling with self-worth, healing from trauma, or just want to bring the spark (back) into your relationship, you will hear techniques, stories, and permission to be your truest, most seductive self, in AND out of the bedroom.

Have you ever wondered what truly makes a woman irresistibly seductive? What if everything you’ve been told about pleasure (your own, your partner’s, and the whole dance of desire) was rooted in centuries-old wisdom you’ve probably never heard before?
Ladies, I am honored to welcome the incredible Seema Anand: Kama Sutra scholar, author, and the internet’s “patron saint of pleasure”, to the show. This episode is an absolute must for every woman who wants to reconnect with her sensual power, understand the roots of seduction, and break free from outdated notions of what it means to be “good,” “attractive,” or even “enough.” Together, we dive deep into the ancient teachings of the Kama Sutra (trust me, you’ve never heard it quite like this!). Whether you’re single, in a relationship, or just ready to reclaim your pleasure on your own terms, this one brings the real talk you’ve secretly craved.

SHOWNOTES
Overcoming shame around “imperfections”: Age spots, birthmarks, and self-worth
Tactical tips from the Kama Sutra: Why lover’s quarrels are essential
How the Kama Sutra centers women’s pleasure (and why it matters for both partners)
Women’s agency: setting boundaries and taking the lead
Touch as connection; why “naked cuddling” matters
The 24 “erotic nerves” and up-leveling pleasure
Bed death, losing intimacy as partners and parents, and reviving connection
Creating “us time” and relationship foreplay in daily life
Safety as a non-negotiable for seduction and pleasure
Fantasies, shame, and why your wildest thoughts say nothing about your character
