Building a Business Without Burnout with Taylor Elyse Morrison
Hey there, Rebels! Today on the Feminine Rebellion podcast, we're shaking things up with the badass self-care revolutionary, Taylor Elyse Morrison, as we redefine self-care, not just as a temporary band-aid, but as a motherf*cking lifestyle. Taylor's journey from a workaholic burning the candle at both ends to a grounded goddess of self-care is exactly the inspiration you need to start honoring your own body and soul.
This isn't your usual wellness guru. Taylor, named as one of Fortune’s 10 Innovators Shaping the Future of Health, is rewriting the damn self-care script. She's the brains behind the media company Inner Workout and the author of a groundbreaking book that goes by the same name.
We're going deep, love, diving into a chat about wellness that's way beyond those glossy Instagram posts and aspirational fluff. Forget about green juice and rose petal baths, Taylor's version of self-care is a hell of a lot more real + it's about time we all got a taste of it.
From workshops at Fortune 100 companies to TikTok talks with high school students, Taylor doesn't just walk her talk; she's sprinting. She's on a mission to make personal development and well-being accessible + actionable for everyone.
In this episode, we'll unpack her book, "Inner Workout: Self-care Done Differently," + redefine self-care in an authentic and powerful way.
Taylor reveals her journey towards a new paradigm of self-care, one that she says was born out of necessity. She recounts her struggles with workaholism + the illusory satisfaction of treat-yourself style self-care. The discussion traces her transformational process from experiencing repeated burnouts to understanding self-care as a constant conversation with oneself, as opposed to short-lived, band-aid solutions.
We explore the limitations of the 'treat yourself' approach and emphasize the importance of listening to one's inner voice to avoid burnout and truly care for oneself.
Get ready for a raw, real, ridiculously enlightening conversation. It's time to say goodbye to burnout + hello to a bold new approach to self-care. We're doing this right here, right now, on The Feminine Rebellion. And trust me, you're not going to want to miss this. Let's f*cking go.

Bonus Episode: The Feminine Rebellion x The Kindling Project
Hi Feminine Rebellion! Grab your headphones and get ready to dive into a new world because another raw, unfiltered bonus episode of The Feminine Rebellion Podcast has just dropped.
Today I'm in the hot seat with Monica, the Chief Impact Officer at The Kindling Project. I love being interviewed because I get to go back in time + really dig in and reveal how I got to where I am today.
The conversation goes far and wide. We journey through my origin story - the pivoting moment that flipped my world upside down and ignited a burning passion within me to help women unleash their true power. We dive headfirst into our bodies + sex, explore why so many women want more + the importance of setting boundaries. We dive into the complexity of navigating the world we're rooted in and why pleasure should be a priority, not an afterthought. We discuss weaving human design into your life, fanning the flames of your passion and pleasure, understanding your personal brand, and building a business that doesn't just survive but thrives.
This episode is a hard-hitter. A game changer. And I'm so excited to see the light of the fires sparked from this conversation.

Bonus Episode: Pregnant with Futures With Amanda Star Kingsley
Surprise, surprise Rebels, we have a special treat for you 🍭🍦🍫 This BONUS episode recaps a powerful conversation with the incredible Amanda Star Kingsley on a topic that holds great significance in our lives: abortion.
Stepping out of shame + reclaiming one's story isn't easy. It's not something to be taken lightly. Speaking on a public podcast about it has brought up a lot for me. And I'm here for all of it.
For thousands of years, The Patriarchy has had a tight grip on women's throats - keeping us from sharing the truths about our lives + our bodies.
And what I know, deep down in my bones, is that sharing our stories is not only healing for the individual but for the collective as well.
I hope that this podcast episode - whether or not you have had an unwanted pregnancy - reminds you of the importance of your own story and the impact it can have on those around you. ✨

Breaking the Taboo of Menopause with Jo Visser
Hellooo Feminine Rebellion!
In this groundbreaking discussion, Jo Visser—a revolutionary in her own right—challenges the taboo around menopause and invites us to embrace this transformative phase of life. Discover how to tap into your inner power, embrace your wisdom, and create a vibrant, fulfilling life beyond menopause. 💃🔥
Why does menopause get such a bad rap, anyway? Jo breaks it down for us while simultaneously breaking the taboo around menopause by encouraging women to channel their power. "How can we change the narrative beyond the doom and gloom... into 'this can be a very exciting time in my life,' and help to empower women?" says Jo.
She's fierce, bold, and actively working to swap the story of menopause from an inhibition mindset ➡️ daringly inspirational one.
Jo is a midwife, storyteller, businesswoman, educator, facilitator, and a trained co-active coach and leader. Her empowerment lies in the area of conversations around perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause, change, growth and power. She supports women as they transform their menopause narrative, not in spite of menopause but because of it. She believes that women's midlife, menopausal health, well-being, knowledge, empowerment and advocacy are integral to their leadership and their own life.
I mean, how boss is that?! There is so much insight to uncover in this hearty episode.🌟❤️🔥
Key topics include:
- How to tap into your inner leader within
- Finding power from loving your body
- The journey of menopause (from the lens of a midwife)

Navigating Transcendence with Cymande Baxter-Rogers
Hello, Feminine Rebellion!
These days it is all too easy to get sucked into the negativity that seems to wait for us around every corner. How do we transcend the bullshit and live meaningful, purposeful lives? How can we navigate transitions and life changes with grace when the world continues to bombard us with trauma, suffering, and pain?
Well to start, this conversation I had with Cymande Baxter-Rogers was like a soothing balm full of wisdom and promise. I needed it. Honestly, it expanded my mind and my heart.
Cymande is a psychiatric and family nurse practitioner living in the woods of NH while plotting her global impact as a psychedelic therapist. She has been in practice in western medical spaces for over 20 years, has spent the last few years studying psychedelic medicine and is graduating from the California Institute of Integral Studies psychedelic therapy and research program this year. She is Afro indigenous and Celtic, born on the west coast, lives on the east coast and has lived in the south, all experiences that have shaped her perspectives on the deep roots of our current internal and community struggles. She will be among the first group of medical providers to be board certified in psychedelic medicine and therapy.
Cymande currently works with an innovative home ketamine provider and has just completed her service in community mental health. She is beyond ready to help reshape our understanding of what it means to care for each other.
I hope you enjoy this beautiful conversation that left my heart feeling full of promise. I feel better about the world after talking to Cymande. I am sure you will be equally inspired and soothed.
Topics we discuss:
- Cymande’s experience as nurse and her journey to her current work
- Transitions and transcending
- The value and importance of community
- Perspective on the individual and the collective
- Getting to the root of the suffering
- Guided psychedelics as an intentional healing pathways
- Appropriation of sacred indigenous traditions

Why Diets Are Bullshit When it Comes to Health, Wellbeing and Sustainable Weight Loss with Dr. Aileen Alexander
Helloooo, Feminine Rebellion!
About a month ago I saw a TED Talk that lit a fire in my heart.
Body image issues are an unfortunately common and almost inescapable experience for women in our culture. It is a symptom of our patriarchal conditioning that we believe we have to strive for a perfect body and certain type of appearance, the effects of which can lead to low-self esteem, mental health issues, and even eating disorders.
We just want to feel good in our bodies.
Meet Dr. Aileen Alexander. Dr. Aileen is doing things differently. After I saw her TED Talk, called “Why traditional diets don't always work,” I knew I needed to share her brilliance with my people.
Dr Aileen is a medical Doctor and online women's health, wellbeing & weight loss coach. For the last 7 years she has helped professional women identify and treat the root cause of their weight gain, fatigue, and stress concerns without rules or restriction so they can live a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.
In our conversation, Dr. Aileen sheds light on some of the things that we've been told about weight loss and talks about the unique and effective (and dare I say rebellious?!) ways that she works with women.
Topics we discuss:
- Why Dr. Aileen left traditional healthcare and to coach women
- Why food soothes us and the hormone imbalances behind it
- How to stop demonizing food and pleasure
- How Dr. Aileen works with women and some of her practices
- The importance of self care, self compassion, and true nourishment

The Practice of Knowing, Asking For, and Getting What You Want with Sophie Luxton
The seemingly simple practice of asking for what we want is RIPE with opportunities and POWER. I am so excited to take a deep dive into desire on this episode of The Feminine Rebellion podcast.
This is such a juicy topic and an even JUICIER guest.
Sophie Luxton is a teacher of Epic Self-Care for Women, How to Get What You Want From Your Man, and creator of Spiritual Strip Tease. In this conversation, Sophie shares her (very relatable!) story of how she had done a lot of "empowering" work on the feminine, only to realize that the power that she wanted to experience wasn't just a feeling on the inside but it was inside relationships. Now Sophie teaches women how to ask for what they want from their men. Her work includes helping women tap into what they want, feel confident in their worthiness, become aware of how they self-sabotage in conversation, how to deal with getting "no" or hitting resistance and the art of receiving. Sophie believes that any woman with big and juicy dreams for her life needs to learn how to speak her desires into her relationships in order to make them come true.
Topics we discuss:
How marriage and motherhood unexpectedly fueled her spiritual work
The re-education of a badass woman who chooses allegiance to herself
The Spiritual Striptease and why it’s so powerful
Exercises to tap into your knowing and desire
How to handle being told “no”
The dynamic between men and women due to conditioning and how it plays a role in asking
The art of learning how to receive

On Loving Our Bodies with Libby Bunten
This podcast has me fired up!
Libby and I run in the same female entrepreneurial circles.
So, yes...I knew her name and a little about her biz, but now I know her wildness.
I saw a post on Libby’s Facebook page on July 15th.
It starts with this line: “Ever feel like your body doesn’t belong?”
From the very first line, there was a revolution in my heart. And I knew I needed to have a real conversation with this brilliant soul.
So, we did this thing. And I’m sharing it with you. 🐺🐺🐺🐺
Women are taught from an early age that we are not enough as we are.
So we shrink, poke and manipulate these beautiful bodies of ours.
Why?
Because we want to fit in.
Because we believe this is the pathway to being accepted, loved, seen, valued.
But, it’s bullshit, women.
Total and complete bullshit.
Libby states,
“We are taught to compare, separate, shrink, cut-down, “package”, contort, scrutinize, disappear. This causes anxiety, depression, and isolating behaviors when lived over time. Sisterhood and celebration of ourselves EXACTLY AS WE ARE are necessary to unwind around this toxic programming.”
This conversation is a brilliant one.
Filled with f-bombs and real-woman talk.
We get real and raw. Grab your earphones and listen in.
Libby is a highly accomplished independent consultant in the global online business world with Arbonne. Her passion is to strengthen the lives of women in her local community and beyond. And now...drumroll please...she is a plus-size (can we change this name please?) model for SKIN, a thoughtful and sustainable lounge wear brand, and is fiercely leading women back to fully accepting and loving all parts of themselves. And soon to hit the shelves is her book about the same topic Release date, 2022.
Topics we discuss:
- Learn to listening to the divine signs that are pushing you towards a life that is fucking scary and liberating.
- Our beautiful bodies and the wisdom and stories she holds within her tissues..
- How we are subconsciously bought in to this ideal of what a woman’s body should look like. Gross.
- How women experience daily micro-assaults that affect our self-image and sense of worthiness.
- Libby shares the visual of her “inner-dial of self-worth”. I love this!!!
- You don’t have to perform a certain way? Get a certain grade, weigh a certain number…to have VALUE.
- How your weight is used as currency - for love, pleasure, wearing a certain bathing suit.
- How sisterhood, pleasure and honoring our darkness is the path to truly loving and accepting ourselves again.
- How Pleasure is the path to FREDOM
- How YOU approving of YOUR body - is the only way out.
- Creating Sacred Space for your darkness in Sisterhood
- How your rage and grief are not bottomless and how moving your body is THE WAY to process it.
- How your body is not just a head carrying device
- How your “performance” makes you feel safer, but it’s patriarchal bullshit
- And...what WILD means to Libby

Dr. Valerie Rein: From Survival to Thriving
Tribe of Wolves!!!
Dr. Valerie Rein is one of my newest ignitors. When I was introduced to her work 4 months ago, there was a revolution in my heart.
Her research reminds us that there is NOTHING WRONG WITH US. We have been living in a Patriarchal Prison that is dimming our light and keeping us small. Listen in for some serious hits of wisdom. Grab a cozy spot, a cup of tea and a notebook. You'll want to take notes.
In this episode we talk about:
- Dr. Valerie's personal story + how she came to discover Patriarchy Stress Disorder
- How being "comfortably numb" is a common state for most women.
- Big T Trauma and little T Trauma - how each further disconnects us from parts of ourselves
- Intergenerational Trauma - your trauma is not always your own. You were born with much of it.
- Why mindset work is bullshit
- Why traditional talk therapy alone will not heal the root cause of your trauma
- The power of Community in healing.
Listen it. It's rich and deep and delicious.

Why Love Pusher is for You
Mama, if you’re asking yourself:
“Wait a minute, who am I?”
“What do I want for my life?”
“What feels good to me anymore?”
I want you to know that I see you. I feel you. I love you. And I created Love Pusher for women like you because I used to be that woman.
LOVE PUSHER is for the woman who is where I was: An overwhelmed mom who has dedicated herself to her family and has gotten to a place where she’s unsure where she lost herself. She’s unsure what happened. She doesn’t know her purpose in life anymore.
We’re bringing together women who are ready to be real, raw, and love on each other. Tune into episode 8 of the Tribe of Wolves Podcast where I share why I created the program and answer some FAQs about the program.

Please-her with pleasure: Pleasure as a Feminine Practice

I talk about WHY pleasure is a feminine practice and why it's a gateway to the feminine.

What happens when you engage in pleasure?

Why we aren’t living pleasure-filled lives
Why aren’t we living pleasure-filled lives already? What is standing in the way of us living lives that have us totally lit up and pushing more love?
It’s the culture we were raised in and are steeped in right now. We’re taught that if we’re not doing more, being more, hustling, achieving, going for that next goal—we’re basically dead!
On episode 5 of the Tribe of Wolves Podcast I get into the #1 reason we aren’t living pleasure-filled lives. Tune in to learn how you can begin to step into pleasure and into things that actually bring you joy.
If you want to take this lesson a step further, join us for the Pleasure & Power Challenge happening January 11 - 13, 2021. Snag your spot here: http://tribeofwolves.co/pleasure-power-challenge/.

Pleasure is how I got my power back
Hey woman,
In this episode I’m taking you back in time, back to the beginning of my journey. I’m sharing the FIRST thing I started to do that shifted things dramatically for me.
6 years back I was a numb, overwhelmed, mom of three. I had all the things I thought I wanted in my life but I still wasn’t happy. (Any of this feel familiar?)
Little did I know then that I was about to dive into one of the juiciest Feminine practices of all time: PLEASURE. This gave me the juice I needed to begin to move my life in the direction of my desires.
Pleasure is how I got my power back. It’s how I learned to love myself. It’s how I dragged myself out of the doldrums and back into my life.
Tune into episode four of the Tribe of Wolves podcast to learn about the small changes you can make to start using pleasure as your guide. Let’s get going. The world needs us.

4 Steps to Sacred Solitude
Every single woman I speak to tells me the same thing: I need more space!
How do we women deal with the struggle of setting boundaries when we’re stuck at home with kids, partners, and the holidays fast approaching? How do we create the space we need and protect our time?
I’m building steel barriers to give myself the sacred space I need, and I’m sharing with you the tools that have helped me do it.
On this episode we talk about how to:
- Step out of the super-mama mindset

- Make room for yourself
- Just say no
It’s time to start prioritizing ourselves, so we can create boundaries and begin to get the sacred solitude that we all need right now.
