Illuminated Conversations Podcast

by Brian M Truskowski

This show is about having contemplative and uplifting conversations, sometimes difficult and always inspirational. We will look at ways to generate a new way of thinking differently or being grateful for the things we have or gifts we can share. This is done through sharing challenging or uplifting, transformational personal growth experiences and sharing the gifts and gold that come from it. Life is a journey, and these are stories that will help you on yours.

Illuminate Podcast Episode #5: Leslie Blackburn

25m · Published 29 Jan 17:00

Welcome to the Illuminate podcast! In this 5th episode, I will be interviewing Leslie Blackburn, author, speaker, Sacred Sexuality practitioner

Leslie woke up from a lifetime of “holding on, numbing out and keeping people out” to reconnect with their body, their power and deepest authentic purpose in life.  In that journey from fifteen years in corporate engineering to now eleven years as Sacred Sexual Healer & Transformational Guide, they birthed their own unique medicine informed by the wisdom of a wide array of teachers and experiences. Leslie has worked with and inspired thousands of people on the path of Sacred Sexuality, and honed ways to liberate others through her story, spiritual teachings and deeply embodied experiential practices. She now offers a path of connecting with your own deep clarity and soul purpose through sexual empowerment.  Leslie bridges the realms to bring deep mystery teachings back into our world from a place of clarity, joy, wisdom and giggles so that we create a culture of love and respect for our bodies, ourselves, each other, nature and the planet.  Love in Action!

Leslie is a queer, omnisexual, polyamorous, ecosexual, gender-transcendent supporter of all beings to be authentically who they are, and uses the pronouns she, her, they, them.
