Mama Gena Wrote You This Guidebook

from This Tantric Life with Layla Martin

Shownotes    How the losing her greatest love taught Mama Gena about eros What healing truly is (and what it isn't) Why the only prayer in the Goddess tradition is "thank you" What Layla learned throughout two years of ongoing illness Why Mama Gena was thrown out of the cathedral on Park Avenue What Mama Gena wants every woman to feel when she's on her knees   Bio Regena Thomashauer, better known as Mama Gena, is a pioneering voice in women's empowerment, a bestselling author, teacher, feminist icon, and the founder and CEO of the School of Womanly Arts, which began in her living room in 1998 and has since grown into a global movement.   For more than three decades, Regena has devoted her work to restoring what has been systematically stripped from women: our connection to the body, our desires, our emotional lives, and our right to want more. At the heart of her teaching is a radical truth: pleasure is a form of power. And when a woman is fully expressed – in her body, her desires, her voice – she moves differently. She tolerates less and expects more. The stakes of her life become visible, and she responds accordingly.   This work is rooted in lived experience, decades of research, and the real-world results of hundreds of thousands of students. It has changed the way women relate to themselves, the standards they hold, and the lives they are willing to claim. Regena is the author of five books, including the New York Times bestseller Pussy: A Reclamation, and has been widely recognized as a leading voice in modern feminism.   Regena's approach is both deeply personal and unmistakably collective. In a culture that shames our bodies and suppresses our emotions, her work serves as a vital antidote that offers not only tools for survival, but a pathway to turn-on, truth, and full-bodied liberation. Her conviction: that the feminine, long suppressed, is the force that will change everything. These teachings don't just challenge the status quo. They transform it.   Buy your copy of Mama Gena's new book, On Our Knees.   Learn more about Mama Gena on her website and follow her on Instagram.   Go deeper into your own transformation and turn your healing journey into a thriving business inside VITA™ Coaching ✨   The class of 2027 is enrolling now, submit your application today to unlock the best price and a full VITA Coaching bonus suite!
