TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:⚠️ Content Note: This episode explores themes of sexuality, including kink, and contains important discussion around differentiating healthy sexual play from sexual abuse.Now—let’s get real. I’m sitting down with sex therapist and all-around powerhouse Shauna Burns-Thomson to pull back the sheets (literally and figuratively). Together, we digest the raw truths from our last show, The S Word, and tease what’s coming in our unapologetic new series, The F Word. These conversations aren’t about shock value—they’re about creating an inclusive, judgment-free zone where folks can actually explore their sexuality without shame.From kink curiosity to boundaries, from play to consent, we’re diving headfirst into the messy, liberating, oh-so-human reality of sex. And because we’re not just here to talk the talk, we’re also launching a 3-part seminar series dedicated entirely to Pleasure!—because your body deserves it, your spirit craves it, and your life will thank you for it.Tune in, get curious, and let’s turn those whispered questions into unapologetic conversations.PLEASURE PRIORITY 3-part sex health seminar with ShaunaHosted at The Goddess Movement at 33739 Essendene Ave in Abbotsford, Shauna will lead this 3-part series through October, November and January.

This episode is your permission slip to stop letting fear boss you around. Aryn is ripping the lid off decision paralysis and showing you how to get out of your own damn way. From real-life screw-ups to listener “oh-my-god-that’s-me” questions, she proves that bravery isn’t about being fearless—it’s about making moves while your knees are shaking. You’ll learn how to break big scary things into bite-sized wins, why flopping is just part of the glow-up, and how every single choice—even the messy ones—pushes you forward. Tune in, grab your courage by the throat, and turn that fear into fuel.

“Not just when you are on stage. Record yourself when you are in your group rehersals and see what you show up like. Because if you are not showing up with big energy in your class rehersals, you are going to diminish your opportunity to show up big when you are on stage. But do both! Record both! And see what happens. Look at it again through the lens of your best friend who wants to give more energy. And then be very honest with yourself. Go, where are the places where I could show up bigger? And is that in my body movement, or is that in my face, or is that with my overall energy?

“The way this space went down… it was like, had I been 12 hours later, I likely wouldn’t have got the space.

“I think entrepreneurs are incredibly multifaceted. I think there’s a lot of things that we&#39;re capable of learning and doing, but if we spend all of our time doing those things (even if we don’t like it or we’re not necessarily efficient at it) it prevents us from doing the things that do make a big impact. I’ve come to realize that if I am going to be behind my business, where I thrive is in the creative aspect of things. I tend to be the spark of stuff, and then I have this beautiful team that can follow through on it.

“I don’t feel like I need to always be on track anymore. I used to… I used to a lot. But I don’t feel like that is realistic anymore. I feel like the more things you do in life, and the more experiences you have in life, the more I in particular, realize there is no such thing as being in track all the time. You can have goals, you can have desires, you can have actions and at no point in time will they all perfectly align so that everything is exactly the way you want it. It will never happen. So, the way I manage all these things is I immediately take responsibility; not try and point fault at other people or other things. The ability to take responsibility when I fall off track or drop a ball is hugely empowering because now it’s not about life happening TO me, it’s about how am I shaping life.”TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:<ul><li>Aryn continues to respond to her prompt on Instagram about what people would like her to blab about</li><li>The topic of getting out of your own way and getting back on track paralleling with getting back in your body</li><li>When acute trauma makes this work debilitating, and how to move forward with a professional</li><li>How the body perceives sensuality as sexuality, and how this shows up in the studio at The Goddess Movement</li><li>How the internal dialogue gets loud and leans into what it knows in order to create a truth</li><li>About replacement dialogue and finding a point of reference through personal experience as an individual</li><li>The value in asking a dear friend about your own behaviours &amp; self-sabotage</li><li>A question from Aryn’s coach prompts her to go deeper into doable action</li><li>When we demand that fears gets specific – “What do you actually want from me?”</li><li>How to empower yourself by taking responsibility for getting off track rather than beating ourselves up</li><li>When bucking societal agreements causes friction and how you can develop more ability to not give f*cks</li><li>Feeling safe in your body: make it a solo activity first ie. body scan</li><li>Connecting to your body through movement and why slowing down promotes proper awareness</li><li>The energetic portal through our pelvis region and how women lock it closed as an emotional trauma response</li><li>As seen in the studio – when having a larger shaped body leads to a preconceived notion of failure (and how to shatter that narrative)</li></ul> CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST ARYN SAVARD<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg==</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg==</a></li></ul> JOIN US IN STUDIO<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thegoddessmovement.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.thegoddessmovement.com</a></li></ul> PODCAST LOVE-BYTES<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg==</a></li></ul> BOOK<ul><li>The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk M.D.</li></ul>

“I have so much respect for the teacher of that class because trying to bring forward the principles of philosophy, and create active thinking and curiosity-based questioning around concepts, and not making things right or wrong with a lot of our young people right now… is very difficult. Because it&#39;s a skill that you have to learn. But he f*cking loved that class because it was all of that stuff. It was theorizing and thinking and poking holes at things. So that would be one; question everything. Question everything people tell you about what you are supposed to be as a grown up, the responsibilities you&#39;re supposed to have, the pathway you&#39;re supposed to lead, the choices you make.

“This is f*cking phenomenal. Now, the problem with it, is unless you get other tools to learn how to deal with the anxiety, it can get worse and worse and become a massive, interruptive problem because it just disrupts your entire life. Usually it’s at that point that we start to seek help – we deal with these coping mechanisms forever until we can’t function with life anymore. Drugs and alcohol are coping mechanisms to deal with things that are intensely uncomfortable; whether that is trauma, or an experience you’re in. I think it’s amazing that our brains find ways to blow off the steam. The challenge with it is, when it starts to disrupt your life to the point where you are no longer thriving, you are no longer moving forwards, and in fact you are starting to become destructive, that’s when we want to start introducing some other tools that can be more generative for you. So, giving all the grace in the world to coping mechanisms. For anybody who has needed them, or who has engaged with them and are trying to navigate through them – please have grace, please give yourself and your coping mechanism an intense amount of grace.“TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:<ul><li>This week’s episode was inspired by shower thoughts</li><li>Aryn dissects parts of a book she read (linked below) regarding &#39;BRULES&#39;, being bullshit rules</li><li>About questioning everything – the difference between absolute and relative truths</li><li>Community truths adopted by groups and how they do and don&#39;t serve future groups</li><li>We look at laws just like rules imposed on us by our parents</li><li>Some examples, including religion, that can play a part in the unconscious following of ideologies, principles and rituals</li><li>Poking around the status quo as a generative offering to create deep roots for what you do and believe in, based on lived experience</li><li>The power of personal truth – a life hack</li><li>Universal truths that we can all get behind, as foundations of the human experience on planet earth</li><li>Aryn revisits a course she created in 2018, The Clarity Project and poses 4 epic questions (see below)</li><li>About coping mechanisms, martyrdom and hiding parts of ourselves as ways of living, and the potential detriment if not dissected</li><li>What cheerleading and grocery bags taught Aryn about her strength</li><li>The importance of WHY we are poking around at foundational beliefs, to avoid unnecessary destruction</li><li>Leaving you with a guiding thought on grace</li></ul> CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST ARYN SAVARD<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg==</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg==</a></li></ul> JOIN US IN STUDIO<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thegoddessmovement.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.thegoddessmovement.com</a></li></ul> PODCAST LOVE-BYTES<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg==</a></li></ul> SHOUT OUTS<ul><li>BOOK &gt; The Code of the Extraordinary Mind by Vishen Lakhiani</li></ul> QUESTIONS FROM ARYN’S COURSE “THE CLARITY PROJECT”<ul><li>What are some beliefs, habits, or ways of being that have been passed down to you from your parents, grandparents, authority figures, or religion/cultural structure?</li><li>What are some behaviors, patterns, or coping mechanisms you have been doing life with because of trauma or something difficult you have experienced?</li><li>What behavior or habit have you developed to find yourself in because is served in gaining you attention, validation, or favour?</li><li>Is there something about yourself that you hide, protect, or diminish that you wish you could shout from the rooftop?

“It felt like there was this sense of righteousness I’ll call it… where it’s like, because you didn’t strip, or because stripping is ‘dirty’ or it’s an underground industry, these are the thoughts that people have. That somehow I’m now approaching it better because I’m doing it in a studio. And to that I call 100% bullshit because as I said before — the only reason we’re able to do this is because people did strip and continue to strip.

“Gratitude feels a lot like joy in that it is a state of being. I think the beingness of joy is an openness and to be able to accept the gifts of what is in the present, regardless of your circumstances. We can be in sadness and we can really be struggling AND we can also experience joy. I think what happens when we’re in sadness and when we’re struggling is it feels hard to open up to those things, to be able to recognize them, to be able to accept gifts in that moment because we are so entangled with the struggle, or we’re so entangled with the sadness. This is something I talk to my coaching clients about – which is an over-identification with sadness, with struggle. Yes, these things happen, we have these emotions. But when we start to over-identify with them, we start to cultivate them out of nothing, or to cultivate them out of memory“.TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:<ul><li>Aryn shares about the Metallica concert she recently attended with Randy and Aiden</li><li>Being inspired by the band’s camaraderie, gratitude and joy</li><li>About the performing arts and giving your all (including dynamic atmospheres)</li><li>Aryn takes us back to when her META accounts were restricted and shut down a few years ago</li><li>She grieves the loss of old content after being reminded of a helpful video from a coaching client</li><li>Finding excitement for choosing the avenue of podcasting to continue her evolution of expression</li><li>Juggling what “is” and what is simply a construct within our economic systems right now</li><li>Choosing to connect with humanity rather than buying into the concept of separateness</li><li>&#39;Expectation is the thief of joy’ Aryn breaks it down on multiple levels</li><li>A story about Luke Combs and abundance</li><li>All about JOY :: a choice and a state of being despite circumstances</li><li>The dangers of over-identifying with sadness and struggle</li><li>Developing hope in dark times by observing joy and beauty around us</li></ul> CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST ARYN SAVARD<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg==</a></li></ul> JOIN US IN STUDIO<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thegoddessmovement.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.thegoddessmovement.com</a></li></ul> PODCAST LOVE-BYTES<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg==</a></li></ul>

“The second one is finding something that sparks some semblance of passion in you. And the passion doesn’t have to necessarily be something that you care deeply about but it can just be something that moves you. One of the things that I have been diving into probably in the last two years is fantasy books. I love books about dragons, I love books about fantasy characters, faeries, warlocks — anything that is not real and carries some tone of magic. And so when I start to feel like this, I pick up my book. And even if I can spend 5 pages in my book, it helps me fall into this idea of non-reality. And not as a point of escapism, but what it does for my brain is it helps me start thinking in a creative way. It gives me a break from feeling like I have to be an adult and I have to be really responsible, and it drops me into this world that doesn’t exist — in such a way that I can start to think a little bit differently about things. I can start to feel into the magic in the book and then I can start to bring that forward in my life.”TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:<ul><li>Aryn recalls a recent experience that left her feeling sensitive and squirrelly</li><li>The episode inspiration coming from a dear friend who inquired about feeling stuck this time of year, and how to navigate moving forward</li><li>About reaching out to friends to help clear your lens</li><li>The brain-loop of the fruit salad of failure</li><li>Reframing the dialogue of failure by recognizing and participating in things you love</li><li>Creating a game plan how to correct, make amends or change the situation moving forward</li><li>Allowing and inviting a different set of emotions to come through in the aftermath</li><li>Aryn offers a 3-step system to get through feelings of being stuck: 1) finding the joy in the mundane — “go hug a rock” 2) finding something that sparks passion or moves you ft. the googley eyes challenge 3) therapeutic hopelessness — what if it never changes?</li><li>the in between phase of manifesting :: finding presence and gratitude in the space we are now</li><li>Aryn uses the example of how searching for the new studio has brought about a need to release the attachment to an outcome</li><li>holding the possibility for more clarity through the waiting period on the way to actualizing the vision</li></ul> CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST ARYN SAVARD<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg==</a></li></ul> JOIN US IN STUDIO<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thegoddessmovement.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.thegoddessmovement.com</a></li></ul> PODCAST LOVE-BYTES<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg==</a></li></ul>

“When we are trying to reach goals, we forget about the things that we learned or did in the very beginning that we had to put a lot of attention into because they were brand new. And when it comes to leaping beyond or reaching over a plateau, usually the answer is not anything drastic, its not anything life-altering, its not some massive message that’s going to drop into the backyard on a sparkly unicorn. It literally is the things you already know how to do and what’s being asked of you is to come back to them and for you to hold them with deep curiosity again.”TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:<ul><li>Aryn opens the dialogue about progression within our two main programs at The Goddess Movement</li><li>How the programs were designed to help students succeed over time within the building blocks</li><li>Becoming a “slave” to the foundations</li><li>Working with neural pathways to rewire mindset and behaviour</li><li>Aryn shares about her journey through physical training and introduces the concept of plateauing</li><li>How we support students through various cycles of plateaus in the studio</li><li>Getting curious about the foundations by breaking them into smaller pieces</li><li>Taking shortcuts in working towards our accomplishments – a disservice to all</li><li>Going back to basics: a spicy tangent about healthy eating</li></ul> CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST ARYN SAVARD<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/aryn_savard?igsh=MWJtcHVzZmZ5dmpibg==</a></li></ul>JOIN US IN STUDIO<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/tgm.studio?igsh=MzE2d2FvbWxmMXV3</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thegoddessmovement.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.thegoddessmovement.com</a></li></ul>PODCAST LOVE-BYTES<ul><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg%3D%3D" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/thegoddessmovementpodcast?igsh=MWYxOGN5Z3diY3pubg==</a></li></ul>

“They dance from their gut. And what they have is presence. No one ever asked me if I felt present when I was dancing. And when I recently went back to training for the first time, I was like, wow I am the least present ever when I’m dancing. I am so out of my body. I don’t feel anything. I’m so in my head. The amount of times we come off stage and the choreographer goes ‘how was that, how did that feel?’ and I’m like, ‘I don’t know, I don’t remember’. I still see that with kids, I watch them come off stage and they don’t remember what happened. Part of it is nerves, but part of it is not teaching presence as an artist, as opposed to tricks.” &gt;&gt;&gt; IMPORTANT NOTICE &lt;&lt;&lt; This episode carries themes, personal stories, discussion of recovery, and ongoing management of eating disorders.

“The gut-brain axis is fascinating, there’s so much new research coming out. The microbiome — they are just fully starting to understand how diverse and how impactful it is.
