Hi! My name is Radiant Rebecca. I'm a polyamorous woman (aka an ethical slut), a courtesan, and a tango dancer. I love to make people blush. Especially if it makes them think! This podcast is about love. And my love life. And my … um, sex life. In each episode, you will hear me in rich, intimate, brainy conversations with my partners, lovers, and curious friends. We will share with you, often in real-time, how we navigate relationship transitions and jealousy, fighting nicely, practice partnership, communicate consciously about sex, money, and more. Expect big chunks of useful information and science geekery, a lot of inspiration, and a dash of magic on top… and of course, lots of talk about pleasure and its manifestations! I believe that TRUE pleasure improves us, and I aim to follow true pleasure wherever it leads. I'm not always right. But I'm always enjoying myself! Care to join me?

episode 120: 120 - A Woman's Path to Independence - Knowing When to Quit, Starting Your Own Business and Taking Care of Yourself with Lisa
RATED R
Can you imagine going against the grain, defying societal expectations, and carving your own path in life?
Rebecca's guest for this episode, Lisa, did just that. A successful entrepreneur who journeyed from being financially dependent, caught in an abusive marriage, to establishing her own prosperous venture, Lisa recounts her transformational life experiences. She also shares how she found the courage to leave her comfort zone, and why it's essential to recognize when something isn't working for you. Her story isn't just about entrepreneurial success, it's about resilience and empowerment and the power of rebellion against norms that no longer serve you.
Rebecca and Lisa also discuss women's health, specifically contraception, and why taking the pill might not be the best answer to save sex. They also touch on the importance of condom education and how it's more than just about preventing pregnancy. It's about understanding one's body, the significance of pleasure, and how different body parts contribute to our feminine divine.

THINK ABOUT
- Women's empowerment is linked to their ability to navigate from dependence to independence. This requires courage, determination, and the ability to trust one's intuition and make choices that align with personal values.
- Understanding the evolution of contraception and its societal impact is critical for women's health.
- Condom education is vital and should be prioritized over merely promoting birth control.
- Women entrepreneurs should trust themselves, even when others doubt them. This self-belief is crucial in navigating the entrepreneurial journey successfully.
- It's crucial to know when to quit. Not all businesses are meant for you, and recognizing when something isn't working and having the courage to move on is essential.
- Rest and self-care are critical components of a successful entrepreneurial journey. Taking time out to rejuvenate can provide a fresh perspective and prevent burnout.
- Open communication about pleasure in relationships is key. Being comfortable with guiding partners and having conversations about pleasure can lead to a more satisfying sexual relationship.
- Embracing individuality and rebelling against societal expectations is a crucial part of empowerment.
- Making choices that align with one's deepest desires can lead to satisfaction and fulfillment.
