Midlife as Initiation: Truth, Power & Unapologetic Pleasure ~ Released September 30, 2025
What if midlife isn’t a slow fade—but a sacred initiation into your deepest truth, cellular power, and unapologetic pleasure? In this soulful, grounded conversation, Carla Wainwright—holistic wellness coach, sexual awakening facilitator, and “midlife alchemist”—joins Jannine to bridge science and the sacred. We unpack how hormone shifts, stress, and blood sugar changes can make pleasure feel far away—and why that’s exactly when pleasure (hello, oxytocin) becomes the antidote that rewires your nervous system and stabilizes your hormones. Expect liberating reframes (hot flashes as sacred burn-off, anyone?), practical micro-rituals, and a reminder that the wisest, sexiest chapters can unfold in your 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond.

Midlife, Menopause & Non-Monogamy: Reclaiming Pleasure, Power & Desire ~ Released September 4, 2025

We talk about what really happens to women’s desire, relationships, and identity in midlife, and how it all ties into exploring non-monogamy, polyamory, and rewriting the love scripts we didn’t ask for.
The Healing Power of Sexual Connection ~ Released September 4, 2025
Carla Wainwright’s journey takes us from her early days as a wildlife biologist, deeply rooted in the world of science, to her own profound turning point brought on by personal challenges and trauma. These experiences led her to embrace the healing arts, including homeopathy, yoga, somatic healing, and a deep connection with the divine feminine. In this episode, Carla introduces us to her concept of “sacred metabolism”, weaving together biochemical science with the esoteric, and explains why it’s essential to nurture both body and spirit.
