  • Honest and Wise Investigation

    These investigations are enlivening, powerful and so pertinent for people in these times. I finish each listening session feeling well-orientated and resourced within myself, with more clarity and ah-ha realisations about my preferences and what is meaningful to me. Devashi shines a light on difficult topics with embodied sensitivity, clarity and spaciousness, asking wonderful questions and allowing contemplations to unfold and grow. Looking forward to where this work will lead over time and I s... more

  • Finally a podcast that gets to the root!

    I’ve listened to every episode of Devashi’s Beyond Patriarchal Sex podcast and I learn something new each time. It’s so refreshing to find a high-quality podcast, particularly sex, that cuts through the distortions we’ve been conditioned into that keeps true partnership at bay. This is so much more than a podcast, it’s a stepping stone toward restoring how we relate to ourselves, our relationships and the world. It’s the education we’ve all been missing! I can’t recommend it enough!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

47. Peace in the Pelvis with Lisa Fitzpatrick
Q: What actually is patriarchal sex according to you?
Patriarchal sex is a fear-driven reaction to the feminine capacity to create life, rooted in power and control. The path beyond it is to embrace creative life force, spiritual alignment, and a vertical, relationally-centered approach that transcends surface-level performance.
37: Somatic Detoxing From Porn, with Tyson Adams
Q: Could you tell us firstly, a little bit about where you're coming from in that focus of supporting men to become aware of their relationship with pornography?
Tyson explains that his own journey started at the age of 9 with exposure to pornography and led to a 20-year addiction, highlighting how it's deeply ingrained in societal norms.
39: Practical Wisdom for Mothers & Families, with Helen Zee
Q: How would you advise women looking at becoming mothers and starting a family?
Know what you want your choices to be, and let that be connected to your values.
34: Q & A with Dévashi Shakti
Q: Can you help her understand and help her differentiate between these two ideas?
Women can change the paradigm of how men and women relate intimately through their own alignment and embodiment, without trying to control the other person.
33: Woman's Wild Nature, with Nuno Rosa
Q: What do you wish that women were getting about how to live in the Beyond Patriarchal Sex?
The first discovery is understanding the feminine principle in their own wombs, and connecting deeply with their body.
