Feminine Wisdom: Acting on embodied desire
A free 60-minute workshop for women who are tired of waiting for their prince to come
Recording available now
Women have been sold a thousand stories about what we should want, and how we should act.
Fairy tales that have been rewritten to tell us that a princess is always rescued by a handsome stranger.
Business leaders who tell us not to be too sexual, or risk being seen as sleeping our way to the top.
Coaches telling us to “be in our feminine,” when what they really mean is to be obedient.
But let’s be honest – being told what to do isn’t exactly working. It’s time for us to become the authors of our own narratives.
Dropping the “good girl” for good
Most women have been taught to divorce themselves from their desires. We’re rewarded for silencing our inner knowing in order to be “reasonable,” “likable,” or “good.”
The cost of this disconnection is enormous: confusion in love, numbness in sex, exhaustion in life.
Here’s what can turn this all around: listening to our desires…and living according to them.
It’s time to find out what the deepest well of wisdom that lives within you wants. Join me for this free workshop to learn, to listen, and to align.
Find your full spectrum feminine power
If you’ve ever known a woman you would describe as living in her power, you have probably noticed that she is far from one-dimensional. She’s tender one moment and fierce the next. She’s receptive today and commanding tomorrow.
The reason she shapeshifts so readily? Because a woman tapped into the power of her desires is responding to the ever changing nature of the life force within her.
This kind of wisdom isn’t common, but it’s absolutely available to you. All you need to do to claim it is learn how to listen.
Why this matters
We are trained to search for answers outside of us.
To follow the health fads that the coaches promise will fix everything.
To trust everything the teacher says, even when something feels off.
To let our partners lead, even when they’re not stepping up.
Meanwhile our desire is screaming for us to notice. When we listen, we act in alignment. We awaken our sexual power. We make aligned decisions. We see pitfalls before we fall into them.
But if we fail to notice our inner longing, we stumble through life.
Your body already knows what’s true. It’s time to come home to the wisdom that has always been waiting there.
What you’ll experience
In this 60-minute workshop, you’ll:
- Discover all the subtle ways you’ve been turning away from your inner knowing.
- Find out the connection between erotic turn on and overall life satisfaction.
- Learn the connection between desire, intuition, and anxiety.
- Explore the ancient Sumerian myth of Inanna’s Descent, and find out the hidden wisdom about women’s desire.
- Practice one simple technique you can use daily to move into aligned, intuitive action.
You’ll leave with a felt sense of what it means to act on embodied desire – and how to start living, loving, and leading from this place.
This workshop is for you if:
- You want to feel eros leading you – the vibrant, alive, turned on self that is aching to come out and play.
- You’re ready to end sticky patterns of self-doubt and giving your power away.
- You’re tired of old relationship scripts that ask you to give up your authority and inner compass.
- You’re ready to stop betraying your body’s wisdom and start trusting your longings to lead you home.
Our Muse, Inanna
The story we’ll follow is one of the oldest written tales, Inanna’s Descent. The Queen of Heaven follows her longing to the Underworld, where she loses everything – and gains even more.
We’ll explore one often overlooked part of her story – and what it can teach us about how to lead with feminine desire even when the odds seem stacked against us.
Come find out what this Goddess has to say about listening to your desire and the wild and wonderful path it will lead you on.
Hey there, I’m Sonja Semyonova.
I’m a writer, intimacy guide, and creator of The Heartbreak Cure.
My work blends storytelling, somatics, and erotic reclamation to help women step more fully into their bodies and ask for what they want without apology. I teach from the crossroads of grief and turn-on, devotion and desire, heartbreak and holy hunger. It’s in this place that I guide my clients to befriend the raw parts of themselves and regain faith in the power that lives in all the places they told you not to look.
I can’t wait to show you what’s possible.
In your words:
“I couldn’t even look at myself in the mirror and say a nice thing about myself when we first started working together. I can say all kinds of nice things to myself now.”
– Kyndal

“Sonja is a wise, authentic guide teaching deep and mind-blowing truths using a fun, light-hearted approach.”
“Sonja’s practices helped me feel safe in my body again. I didn’t know healing could feel this good.”
“I finally feel like a strong woman”
The answers are inside you – you just need to listen.
The Journal
How motherhood slowed me down
It’s just after 1:00 p.m. My three-year-old daughter and I make the slow walk from her school back to our home. It is a walk that takes me seven minutes alone, but with her, we take about a half hour. It’s filled with questions: What’s that flower? What’s under that pile of leaves? Why is that man walking? And of course, there is time to say hello to her friend Gustavo, who owns the hardware store down the street.
This is her time. A time to meander and to not be pushed. A space to become fully immersed in that timeless state of childhood that I am sad to admit is not possible in all other parts of her day.
When the clock strikes midnight
I’m not going out tonight.
We have an invitation. A party under the stars and next to a fire, filled with people we love. But I am tired. So I will stay in instead.
The revolution
My daughter called to me from her carseat, her voice tinged with sleep. The four-hour drive to our new home in a small Mexican town was overlapping with her naptime, but there was no other way to do it. The road was empty except for us, so I picked her up out of her carseat, wrapped her in my scarf, and nursed her to sleep on my lap. As she dozed in my arms, I watched a dog take off running at top speed along a row of restaurants. Something about the freedom of its movement, unhindered by cages or leashes, stirred some ancient part of me.
