Welcome to another episode of Soul Chat! I am your host Eb Tutora, and today I wanted to highlight what I hear when working with clients, or simply those around me. Many of us want love, success, and peace, but oftentimes we are skipping the steps it takes to get there. Can you still manifest things by skipping steps? Hell yes! But, I believe that they’ll always be what we KINDA wanted, and not the exact thing. Making sure we cover ALL bases, allows us time to grow, gain wisdom, and ENJOY the process. There’s so much sauce in this podcast, so dive in and get ready for a conversation deeper than the surface. Love it? Share it with 3-5 people that you know! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/queensrecognizequeen/support

Soul Chat with Queens Recognize Queens®️

Episode 43 with Eb Tutora- Stop trying to skip steps!

Welcome to Soul Chat with your host Ebony M. Tutora. A podcast dedicated to diving beneath the surface level conversations... and going into the depths of the soul. Today I had the honor of interviewing the amazing ShaVaughn Elle, a writer/poet, holistic practitioner, spiritualist, and sex/pleasure specialist. THIS conversation was everything. We discussed the meaning of sex, and how society has blurred our vision on the sacredness of it. We've been shamed into denying ourselves the right to feel pleasure. ShaVaughn touches on the many forms of femininity so women can stop shaming other women for their unique expression of their sex. We also covered all things taboo, and the powerful way to tap into pleasure at ANY moment.  This conversation is bigger than sex, as it is a re-education of what know to be true. It is an inquiry into age-old beliefs that may be rooted in fear, lies, and a need to control a specific narrative. Obviously, since numbers don't lie... we know that porno is extremely popular, as well as other things that allow us to freely express our sex or to experience pleasure. This conversation takes the veil off of it, and gives us a safe space to explore the dynamic of what we have learned about sex vs what is REALLY true.  More about the Goddess: I transmuted my pseudonym into my greatest passion… My entry into eroticism started with my written work as L.T. Robinson and evolved into intimacy and sex education. I created Say It With Sex as a medium to better understand the nuances and synchronicity of sex and spirituality. While embodying my own path of sexual self-expression, I uncovered how this energy and perspective effects, as well as translates across every aspect of our lives. I desire to live a pleasure-filled life and want to help others do the same. My efforts are placed towards Black and Brown persons with vulvas and those who identify as feminine because I am she and fully understand the difficulty with embracing and standing firm in your sexual preference, expression, values, and beliefs. Our bodies are viewed as sex objects and resources of emulation, not conduits of sex energy. I seek to connect with the collective to de-stigmatize and redefine what sexual liberation looks like for us. It isn't always a nip-slip. As a creative healer, I use these gifts as instruments to unpack our distorted sexual lens. Through content, a strong spiritual foundation, and other educational tools, together as a community,  we peel back the layers and learn our erotic language to better understand who we are in pleasure.

Episode 42- Finding Pleasure with ShaVaughn Elle

Welcome to Soul Chat with your host Ebony M. Tutora. A podcast dedicated to diving beneath the surface level conversations... and going into the depths of the soul. Today I had the honor of interviewing the amazing Chief Grief Crusader, Herdyne Mercier. In this episode we speak about grief, and how many times we may not even recognize that we are experiencing grief. It may be grief induced by the loss of a job, a lifestyle, a child, a partner, and so many other ways. Herdyne truly shows up in her power, and knowing of redefining the way we processing emotions. Intellectual intelligence is one thing, but your emotional intelligence is everything.  More about her: I believe that happiness and sadness exist in a delicate balance. The goal is to not allow our unhappiness to overtake the good times, the successes and the laughter and joys in order to maintain our emotional well-being. Dealing with grief has piqued my interest since I was a little girl. I remember attending funerals with my father and wondering, “why do people die?” “why do people cry?” “How can we overcome death?” existential questions that my six-year-old self could not answer. As an adult, however, it dawned on me one day that there is a way to defeat death. It is by living life: fully and intentionally. It is by recognizing that every moment we have breath in our lungs is a gift from God. It is by preparing for tomorrow without fearing any curveballs that may be thrown our way. Herdyne Mercier is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Grief Coach, retreat facilitator, and transformational speaker. She is also the host of the “Redefining Grief” podcast. Herdyne’s life calling is to create non-judgmental spaces for broken hearts to heal and purposeful living restored. Alongside her husband and best friend, Dr. Jameson Mercier, they own and operate Mercier Wellness and Consulting. They use their expertise and experience to help individuals, couples, and families deal with the heartbreak and unresolved grief that lead to unhealthy coping skills.

Tune into another episode with Ebony Tutora from Queens Recognize Queens® and a special guest Neko Cheri. In this episode we talk about her powerful story, her role models that shaped her into the financial powerhouse that she is today, as well as breaking generational poverty with her Invest Gary real estate investment training.  More about Neko:  Neko Cheri, is an accomplished author, financial literacy advocate, former realtor, entrepreneur, and entrepreneurial strategist. For the last 13 years she has assisted hundreds of families on the road to building wealth and leveraging debt. After dedicating over a decade to the real estate industry, Neko realized that there was huge knowledge gap within the Middle Class between having credit and understanding how to manage debt. Taking on a challenge as an opportunity, Neko developed a credit enhancement program called Credit Matters: Understanding Your Credit to help close that gap. She has also undertaken a personal mandate to educate people on how to better position themselves for wealth creation by leveraging their business and personal credit to achieve their long term goals. Neko is passionate about empowering families to win financially, because she witnessed firsthand how many Black Americans are unaware that they are being targeted systematically by the credit bureaus for subprime loans, higher interest rates, and inaccurate data that can cripple the pursuit of the American Dream. She believes It is critical that Blacks understand how to play to win, or we will lose within the complex yet simple game of money. Having an intimate knowledge of the myriad landmines along the path to financial success has positioned her as a master tour guide along the fast track to establishing and building generational wealth. Neko spends much of her time helping others by video blogging, hosting free credit webinars, teaching money management for youth, and sharing market trend insights.
