You are sooo worthy of pleasure! In every area of your life.Pleasure can be tangled up with so much - our worthiness, betrayal of others if we have pleasure, whether we are selfish or self-centered, responsibility, and indulgence.In this episode, I talk about all this including how being in YOUR pleasure brings more to yourself and others, as well as how we can untangle the soul’s desire to love by not having and allow a deeper way to love - by having and being in your worth.
