How Celibacy Turned Me Into a Magnet for My Desires

This one is personal, one where I am taking you through my celibacy journey - yes, you read that right. What it has revealed about my relationship with self and how it completely shifted my sense of worthiness, intimacy, and magnetism. This isn't about being anti-sex or anti-pleasure. This is about no longer abandoning myself for validation or escape.Over the last year and a half, choosing celibacy has opened my mind in ways I never expected. It pushed me inward, cleared out old patterns, and rebuilt my sense of safety and connection from the inside-out. If you have ever confused sex with intimacy, felt stuck in cycles that drain you, or simply can’t understand why you’re not attracting what you desire: tune in to start clearing the path. Highlights: (01:42) How my decision to become celibate really started (04:32) The sneaky ways we outsource validation through sex (06:55) Why everything you desire lives in the work you’re avoiding (12:07) Celibacy as the ultimate filter for aligned relationships (17:59) How disconnection from your body blocks magnetism (29:44) Recycling sexual energy and tapping into life force creativityListen to Episode 11: My Sobriety Journey & Deconstructing Addiction Resources:Join SJ’s Spring Writing Retreat: WRITE THE DAMN BOOK! 5/7-5/9 in Denver, CO Follow SJ on InstagramDownload the Free Identity WorkbookGrab my SLAY YOUR STORY⚔🔥 Storytelling Masterclass here.

Conversely, more contact can have positive beneficial effects.We tell the stories of how reconnecting with nature has helped people improve their lives.
