Intimate Conversations

Holly Swenson's presence instantly softens a room. An award-winning author, registered nurse, wellness advocate, and mother of four boys, she carries a rare blend of grounded wisdom, calm authority, and deep maternal devotion. Her life and work are rooted in presence, intentionality, and the belief that how we live and parent today shapes generations to come.

Welcoming Holly to this episode of Intimate Conversations, opening Season 14, Dark Night to Divine Light, there was a felt sense of steadiness, elegance, and emotional safety as we explored what it truly means to parent and live from a regulated nervous...

There are some moments when my life gently asks me to sit down, soften, feel and tell the truth. This solo episode of Season 14 marks a moment, recorded at sunset in Santa Fe, opening under the theme Dark Night to Divine Light.

This episode is a quiet, powerful homecoming and nourishing personal reflection of why I have returned to solo episodes and why I coach. Not from theory. Not from branding. But from lived experience, grief, integration, and devotion to Truth.

In this tender and revealing episode, I explore what happens when we stop suppressing...

Manex Ibar feels like ancient wisdom wrapped in warmth, wonder and a major dose of otherworldly badassness. A mystic, shaman, and visionary entrepreneur, he bridges sacred tradition with evolutionary science, guiding individuals and organizations to awaken higher consciousness and remember who they truly are.

It was such an honor to welcome him back to Intimate Conversations to close season 13, "Heart Broken Open." Our dialogue was a tapestry of mysticism, science, and raw humanity — exploring near-death initiations, divine downloads, and the creation of his revolutionary system, The Sphinx Code.

In this extraordinary and soul-stirring conversation we ex...

After working with Ken for about four years online, I had no idea that an in person session would turn out to be one of our deepest sessions ever, RIGHT before welcoming him back to the Podcast in person! From our very first conversation years ago, to now hugging him in person for the first time, his unique gift of Divine Presence has changed my life. I feel so safe to face my darkest shadows in his profound presence of truth, humility, and the Divine. I've become such a more embodied coach, friend and woman with his support.

I've coached for more than 20 years. And every step of the way I've had several coaches who reveal my blind spots, encourage me to move beyond my edges, and enhance my mastery which I'm honored to pay forward with breathtaking results for my cherished clients.

Most of these coaches have been one-on-one, yet every few years I join a group coaching program and meet phenomenal colleagues. In my current teacher trainer coaching program with John Wineland, right out of the gate a lovely woman reached out from the UK saying she felt a special connection to me...

There are some moments when you just have to pinch yourself. The Universe conspired to weave two paths together… I had JUST had lunch with upcoming Podcast Guest Stephanie James who mentioned her line up for her upcoming workshop. Then my Calendar revealed a Podcast interview with a familiar name… Lisa Campion, a brilliant psychic mentor, author, and healer whose heart and wisdom shine so brightly. Turns out Lisa and Stephanie are besties! What a delight to discover my world is getting smaller and smaller! And what an honor to feature Lisa's psychic gifts, evolution of her capacities and her...

I first worked with Amanda at another company, she was assigned to my account and gratefully aligned with my mission, message and energy. Now she is my right hand woman in my company, my 'work wife'- ha! She has my back booking me on Podcasts, booking our Intimate Conversations Podcast and makes sure as I galavant around the world, that we have important things like post office boxes so important documents don't get lost.  

Personally when she joined my company she was ready to heal from past wounds, the loss of her best friend and reconnect with h...

Dan DeSena is a transformational guide helping men achieve authentic growth. I asked Dan about his approach to teaching men about self-pleasure, sexual health, and emotional resilience. We spoke of the sacredness of sex as a spiritual practice, our personal experiences with energy-based orgasms.

Dan expanded on his journey from growing up in a religious family with restrictive views on sexuality to finding sacred sexuality work with John Wineland, which helped him integrate his masculinity and leadership qualities. He's learned to embrace his "darkness" and dominant energy while keeping his heart open, understanding that conscious women sense...

Tiffany Hurd's path and mine crossed almost a decade prior, and it was psychedelics that brought our souls back together. She's a plant medicine facilitator, somatic healer, and guide for embodied transformation and the Microdosing Advisor and Head of Partnerships at Golden Rule Mushrooms. Tiffany has the gift of helping people meet their emotions through the body rather than the mind, turning pain into peace and tension into truth.

It was such a joy to welcome her to Intimate Conversations for a deep, nourishing, and embodied dialogue about healing, surrender, and the intelligence of plant medicine.

There are some souls who radiate such drive, heart and devotion to service that you can feel their energy through the screen. Mike "C-Roc" Ciorrocco is one of those. A powerhouse of faith, family, and fierce integrity, he has turned personal struggle into a dedicated mission to help people become unstoppable in life and business. After the delight of being on his That1Podcast and joining his Quantum Group, it was such a joy to welcome him to Intimate Conversations for a deeper dialogue of real and raw truths about success, surrender, and divine alignment. In this grounded and...

Some women bravely sit in the fire and instead of running to the next job, the next man, the next something… and instead surrender and trust Divine timing on the journey of rebirth after divorce, empty nester and completing a 3 decade career. Kristina is one of those courageous women, willing to trust life and listen to her heart as her soul awakens into a radiance that is undeniable.

Kristina Adams—who is in the process of reclaiming her maiden name Davis— first joined me years ago as a client fresh out of a divorce, and to witness her co...

Simran is magical. It's as if I've waited my whole life to meet her… again? She's an author, artist, publisher, mystic, host of 11:11 talk radio, founder of 11:11 magazine and creating content that bridges humanity and divinity sharing her transformative journey from material success to spiritual awakening triggered by repeatedly seeing the number 11:11.

We began our recording with construction in the background- given our fancy microphones didn't pick it up, we decided to embrace the disruption as symbolic and potentially useful for their discussion.

We discussed how to respond rather than react to life's challenges. Simran sh...

Jessica's path and my path are elegantly aligned, our souls are here to do the deep work, to be role models of authenticity and credibility, to walk our talk. A dear colleague and returning guest, Jessica Baum and I reunited on Intimate Conversations to dive into the profound wisdom of her healing journey after the conscious completion of her marriage and the wisdom of this experience written for you, in her newest book, Safe. In this brave, revealing and heartfelt conversation, we explored not just her expertise as a psychotherapist and author, but her lived experience of love, loss...

There are some souls whose presence feels like a deep exhale, like the banks of the river where you can just be yourself. Jeremy Lipkowitz is one of those rare beings. A former Buddhist monk turned executive coach, he blends ancient wisdom with neuroscience to guide men out of shame and back into integrity, presence, self-love and healthy sexuality.

I first had the honor of being on his podcast, and now I am thrilled to welcome him to Intimate Conversations. In this tender and illuminating conversation, we went places many are too afraid to explore: addiction, shame...

There are some women whose very presence let alone wisdom, radiance and deliciousness, uplifts you to a whole new dimension of pleasure, possibility and power in your life. Susan Bratton is one of those incredible women. Known as the "Intimacy Expert to Millions," she's authored over 44 books and programs on sex, love, and relationships, and it was such a delight to welcome her back to the podcast after nearly a decade. Her level of heart centered juicy bold service to humanity is breathtaking.

In this yummy, candid and electrifying conversation we explored…

-How Susan's work be...

Amanda first came into my world as a client alongside her husband Brandon, when their marriage was on the brink. Now, years later, she's circled back as not only a dear friend but also an Allana Pratt Method Coach, still thriving in her marriage. The work works! It was such a joy to feature her IN PERSON on the podcast! (such a sassy new hairstyle! xox) 

In this heartfelt and inspiring conversation, we explored…

-How Amanda and Brandon "burned down" their first marriage after infidelity and chaos, and rebuilt a brand-new foundation based on forgiveness, new...

This conversation tenderly expands your heart with unexpected brave truth. What an honor it was to sit down with the luminous Victoria Pippo for this episode of Intimate Conversations. A fellow Canadian goddess, psychic teacher, and disruptor of the spiritual norm, Victoria is the real deal, raw, embodied, and willing to share her relationship journey with profound honesty.

We went places in this conversation that few people dare to speak about. Victoria opened up about her love story with her fiancé, Hayden, from their whirlwind meeting to navigating his transition from Rachel to Hayden Lane, and what i...

You know when things look like they're falling apart but they're really falling together? I was super stoked to interview several teacher trainers after the workshop completed in Mallorca, Spain. However, one by one the guests began to reschedule as the intensity of the workshop built. It was a good learning lesson to temper my enthusiasm with grounded intuition to ensure my idea was a 5D win win for all.

Literally as I was speaking to one guest who was understandably exhausted and requesting to reschedule, her replacement suggestion to interview literally walked in the room. AND...

For someone who I've known for two decades, it's amazing that I've only interviewed her and her husband once. This was the first time to interview Nada individually and what a profound treat it was!

It's been breathtaking to watch her evolution as she balances her superpowers of mind and heart. So many of our childhood wounds turn into coping mechanisms that allow us to thrive vocationally. She is an extraordinary litigator and has a masterful capacity to not be triggered, see both sides of a situation and communicate in a way so that everyone feels heard...

There are some conversations that stay with you forever because they crack you open and remind you of what's truly possible when we lean into vulnerability, truth AND cherished sisterhood. What a gift to circle back with my bestie Nada Shamonki, who has witnessed my journey for the past 20 years as we explore the depths of emotional capacity and sacred repair together.

In this delicious and soul-stirring conversation we explored…

- How I shifted from survival-based relationships, either damsel in distress or hyper-independent 'boss woman,' into wholeness, where love, work and collaboration become spaces fo...

This extended and deeply personal episode turns the tables as Allana Pratt, usually the host, is interviewed by her long-time friend, client, and legal counsel, Nada Shamonki. Their 20-year friendship lays the foundation for an open, vulnerable, and intimate conversation about Allana's personal, professional and spiritual evolution.

-Allana reflects on becoming a single mother and building her coaching career from scratch, including her initial niche as the "Sexy Mom Expert." She shares early milestones, including working with Leeza Gibbons and navigating motherhood without her own mother.

-Allana's transformation from a performance-based, people-pleasing mindset...

This is phenomenal to interview Bob Grant after having been interviewed by him for his summit. I can see why women feel so safe being coached around dating and relationships by him. His energy is so present, safe, kind, and caring. He's void of judgment and committed to a proven path of fixing the problem. He provides clear points of view that open up new possibilities. And simultaneously, he's deep, he's not into quick fixes or surface solutions, he invites his clients to slow down and feel, discover the shadow underneath it all that's at the root of the...

This deeply personal and emotional episode features Danielle, a cherished client of my coaching program. The conversation highlights her impressive growth through emotional healing, relationship transformation, and personal empowerment, especially after ending a toxic relationship.

Danielle began coaching when she was in a manipulative and emotionally abusive relationship with a man who resented her financial success. Despite having wealth and a supportive family background, she struggled with self-worth, especially around romantic partners. Her patterns included "project men" – dating men she wanted to fix or help, often at the cost of her own needs, happiness, and boundaries.

...

My Allana Pratt Method Coach, Kristina, has been speaking of Rebecca for years. I am super stoked I followed through and interviewed this brilliant, embodied, and inspiring woman! Rebecca gets Change!

It's like she's another facet of the same Diamond I am, one that we shine a congruent, complementary light on embracing change and an aligned feeling of breathtaking honor to walk with someone through the cycle of change. She helped me turn some unconscious competences into competent competences. I'm so grateful!

In this conversation that I would have been happy to have gone on...

While Dr. Kevin is known for his whole body approach called Head to Toe Healing, I would say from Head to Heart. We instantly dove into a spiritual conversation about all the Divine orchestrations and experiences of his evolution. It explains so much of the depth of presence that I experienced with him when I interviewed him on Instagram and teased him that he's the Sexy Care Bear :-) There's a resonance in his voice that is sourced someplace quite deep, and learning more of his story revealed what I intuited. And even though we eventually talked about health...

After a botchy IG Live when I couldn't SEE Esin, this was delicious to LOOK into her beautiful eyes and connect heart to heart. Erin is a Holistic Psychologist, LCSW, Addiction Professional, and Relationship Expert.

We dove right into our shared experiences of Female Friendship & Betrayal. While many think breaking up with a boyfriend or husband is intense… we both agreed that the heartbreak of female friendship betrayals and the pain of sisterhood ruptures can be even more intense… perhaps because you don't see them coming.

We both opened up about how early family roles and...

I loved interviewing longtime friend, Bryan Reeves—a former Air Force captain turned relationship coach, author, and speaker—about deep themes of love, grief, surrender, and conscious partnership.

Bryan shared his and his wife's experience of enduring 18 major life challenges in five years, many of these were ambiguous losses—grief over things never fully materialized.

We've both been Inspired by Michael Singer's Surrender Experiment and Bryan reflected on surrendering to life's challenges without giving up, choosing instead to fully engage with each moment, seeing surrender as the ultimate form of freedom.

I love learni...

Completely new universes and deeper awarenesses can arise when we gather in sacred intimate conversations. That's why this podcast is in its 13th season!

I knew how grateful I am for Marina's videography and photography at my last 4-5 retreats. I'm aware of how inspired I am at the personal, parental, spiritual and professional evolution I've witnessed coaching her and the gift of her vulnerability to our coaching community. I'm grateful for the contribution of her mastery in the realm of water rituals for my clients at retreats.

However it wasn't until we sat down...

Some interviews take a while to drop in, and while the information might be supportive, the soul connection never occurs.

I was able to instantly drop in with Scott Grace, even having moments of silence, simply pure connected appreciation where there was nothing to do, nowhere to go... simply bask in pure presence and intimacy :-) And we laughed our faces off! I was in rapture as he continued to sing to me!

In this high-frequency conversation, we also discussed...

- How is it that he gives himself over to Spirit and is...

I had known Sam for several years, back when he was dating Drea and successfully (and bravely) navigating cancer. I'd instantly had an affinity for this brother from another mother, he was so willing to do his work and give his deepest self to humanity.

I had never met Michelle, this was her first podcast. I wasn't sure if it would be awkward. Nope! She is a pure ray of sunshine and grounded radiance. We hit it off instantly and I now have a new goddess sister!

The conversation was profound about the magical results...

Lindsey is real, honest, beautifully present and not only deeply connected to her heart, but committed to the ongoing 'practice' of deep heart connection with her truth, her don't give a fuckness, and her spaciousness as she moves forward with what really matters - home, motherhood, openness to receiving pure creative impulse from spirit, deep connections and her spot on intuition.

In this delicious conversation we discussed...

How curiously, we both grew up being bullied which initially distanced ourselves from our heart, yet eventually cultivated deep presence with self and others

How motherhood...

With the exception of Chris's podcast who you may have seen, no one else shows up on coaching calls on a weekly basis more than Juan. He's done so for 9 years in this glorious conscious community. Growing, expanding, healing, yes... and yet not experiencing a big Quantum Leap non-linear jump...yet.

That was until two things happened: the first was I offered my 7-week Become the One Mastery $1,997 program complimentary to all my current clients and Juan showed up for virtually every call. There he had a massive breakthrough explaining so many of his previous challenges.

There's some Souls that leave their footprints in your heart after spending only a short time in your life. Others continue to weave back in year after year :-) Karen and I have been friends and colleagues for about 15 years and what a delight to Circle back and feature her on the podcast again.

I was able to ask her questions I've never asked her before tying together not just her Master Theta healer wisdom and expertise, but more ways that Theta healing has supported her personal life, marriage and parenthood.

In this delicious and...

Oh my God this man is my hero. I'm still stunned by his extraordinary depth, insights, wisdom, generosity and tearful smiling love for his wife. What a privilege and blessing to dive deep into what it truly takes to go beyond defensiveness and create conversations that deepen love when consistent criticism can often lead to divorce. And this still pinching myself conversation, which I would be happy to have for an entire weekend long, we also discussed... -The healing power of 'sharing and caring' sessions to shift people from surviving to thriving and support them in creating a 'conflict...

I originally met Emily in the John Wineland Kendra Cunov Teacher Trainer Workshop in Sedona. I was taken by her depth of inquiry into how to live an international life, be ready for relationship but not wait for it to live fully.

As I was booking the studio in Austin for several pre-records for Season 13, I was delightfully astonished to learn that Emily was living in Austin! With her sexy accent, I was sure she lived on the other side of the planet yet I learned she's in business partnership with Alexi Panos awakening a woman's deep...

Talk about an instant connection, when I let him know we would be dancing on After the Show on Patreon, he said can't we dance now as well? Even three times? I love this man!

Has the interview went on this man who felt about 10 years older than me is actually close to 30 years older than me! Spiritual fasting, dancing plus yoga, meditation, a vegan diet and a beautiful marriage and family... is certainly working for this Gift to humanity.

In this vibrant intimate conversation we also discussed...

-His experience not just ghost...

I remember the first time I saw Susan's name in my calendar, her last name was the same as a boy I grew up with back in British Columbia. And it turns out Susan is from outside of Toronto! I thought perhaps they were related!

Turns out they weren't but Susan and I are definitely a long lost members of a soul family. We instantly fell into deep affinity and dove into a year of working together. She was 78 when she signed up. She knew there was more intimate depth, meaningful connection, love of her body and...

Talk about an immediate Zinger of a connection as soon as Monica popped on my zoom screen! Instant joy, alignment, humor, deliciousness! It's was like we were old friends reuniting. We had so much in common regarding our points of view around trauma work, integration and femininity. And I loved her success stories of people's relatively short turnaround from sabotaging patterns by addressing the core trauma and doing the integration work. In this enthusiastic and energizing conversation we also discussed... -The concept of an Empowered Submissive, what it means, how to be one and why you'd definitely want to...

Josh was the first of my six live interviews in Austin, Texas. I don't know why I didn't book studios sooner! What a treat :-) It was the same studio he books to generate his extraordinary content.

There was a bloody downpour as I got to the studio, so after drying off and working with my drowned rat look xox, it was so exquisite to exhale looking right into his eyes, feel his presence and honor his heart after having the blessing of watching his documentary the night before.

In this connected...

I don't know if there's ever been a harder episode for me to record than this one. I've probably interviewed over 850 to 900 people in my career. But I've never spoken directly into the heart and soul of my son, after not speaking with him for 5 years. I was a mess. Yet the exercise was brilliant- I've ended up airing Take 4 and Take 1, 2 & 3 are in Behind the Scenes of my 'Heart- Centered Foundations' Patreon Channel as a sacred intimacy training offering meant to inspire anyone who has suppressed their feelings. It's an invitation to express buried feelings in a healthy...

Everyone evolves at their own pace, their soul has its unique journey and yet holy shit Sean is waking up. Fast! I remember when he joined the community it was a 50th birthday present to himself to invest in his evolution after being blind sided by a painful divorce. He's bravely felt his feelings, taken ownership of his growth opportunities, he does the work and values his open heart more than ever before. Facilitating his journey of 'becoming the one' heals me too because he helps me believe in men, that there are men committed to doing the inner...

It's amazing when you start an intimate, connected, committed journey with someone… where it will go. I've had the honor of coaching Carla for 5 years and watch her life literally transform professionally, personally, romantically, parentally... Now I'm blessed to have Carla narrate my 6 books and my 10 Allana Pratt Method Processes as a deeply talented voice over artist. Soon l will surrender to her as she trains to be an Allana Pratt Method coach and processes my sh*t! I love this woman and you will too...

What a treat to interview Chris, my longest-term client. He's such a gift to this community. We began 13 yrs ago back in the days of Skype and audio only group calls. I'm honored that he chooses to stay and grow in this amazing community even though he has 'sampled' others. I loved learning WHY he keeps showing up. Basically, it comes down to 'The Work Works.' Pretty much every area of Chris' life is better AND he's more at peace with himself, life and dreaming a bigger future.

I can't imagine what it takes to be a full-time family law litigator, own your own practice for 40 years, then get multiple coaching certifications and show up with such zest for life and joy for being alive... while simultaneously beginning to understand that feeling doesn't happen in the mind, it happens in the body... and that there are no feelings that are wrong or bad, that we aren't wrong or bad, that all feelings are a beautiful part of Being Human. This has been the Exquisite journey of watching Rosie come into my Inner Circle coaching program, become a...

I loved this gift of connecting intimately with Sharon in this intimate conversation space to put all the pieces together of how this journey has been the perfect complement to her spiritual evolution. It was amazing to reflect back to her that it wasn't just the use of medicine, it was HOW we used the medicine to keep her in her body, and how this wasn't a group Journey... it was one-on-one. Trauma occurs in relationship and healing occurs in relationship. She was able to move through hopelessness, self-hatred or panic... so many intense emotions and trust that her...

I remember back when I chose to date more consciously, I would rather date a man who had fallen down and gotten back up again then a man who had success but I never knew who he was when the chips were down.

This is the way I experience Brian and Nada watching them for the past 16 years... two successful people individually, as lovers and as parents... yet over time like many couples, a small bump becomes a big roadblock.

They both committed to doing the deep inner work privately with me and joined the...

When's the last time you remember being absolutely free, unabashed, unapologetic, letting life flow through you in complete joy, rapture and fulfillment? Honestly for me it was last night dancing under the full moon at the beach! Fucking glorious.

And for this cherished client Jon, he shares that due to doing the work to integrate wounds from the past all the way back to childhood, he is able to experience tears of joy as a musician as he fully let's go of control, let's go of thought, let's go of the outcome and gloriously gives his gifts...

I love this woman! Who knew both of us would cry so much!? Tears of gratitude, being moved that the 'work works'. We shared how the depth of safety we experience in our bodies now is magnificent compared to when we were trying to control outside circumstances to be good enough, pretty enough, safe enough, chosen for a job, chosen by a man... how glorious it has been to watch Kristina after her divorce, integrate old wounds and fall madly in love with herself.

In this vulnerable delicious conversation we also discussed ...

Her pride in...

Talk about an awakening of presence, elegance, confidence and unapologetic ownership of her dreams...  I loved this one on one girl night connection  about Little You, feelings and love with my inspiring client Samantha.  This recording came on the tail end of spending close to a week with her in Costa Rica at the annual Intimacy Retreat... and was even more special given she came to me recommended by a past client who found the love of her life and is now married.  

In this inspiring conversation we also discussed...

How the caliber of men she...

OK why is it that I lose my shit and cry my face off with grateful happy tears every time I talk to these two? I loooove them. Their bravery, willingness to do the work, to feel and stay connected to themselves and one another, their team mentality, their assuming the best with one another even when triggered, their honoring of each other's feelings...  They are nothing short of inspirational. 

In this absolutely transparent and real podcast we also discussed...

The power of consistently making time for one another being alone even with 2 little kiddos... 

Life is amazing in that we never know the impact we make, whose heart we touch. Yet sometimes we have the magical blessing of knowing... like when I discovered Myola had been following me for a decade! She is an expert in her own right and we've been on similar Summit Panels over the years and I was honored beyond measure to discover she was ready to dive into this level of work. She's become such a huge contribution to our inner circle community, even traveling across the globe to be with us at the Annual Intimacy Retreat in...

Coaches coaching coaches… works!

I remember the first time I learned that Sean was interested in coaching with me, I read his blog... wow! What an exquisite writer! (I still look forward to his book!)

This conversation revealed the deeper reason why our souls collided- his mother wounds were exquisitely healed by a female coach... rewiring his capacity to trust the feminine, feel safe, deeply respected, and to awaken his relationship with his own feminine muse of creativity.

In this deeply vulnerable, alive and passionate conversation we also discussed...

-How the wo...

Oh my God how I love this woman! How inspiring to listen to her story from dating dud's desperately, to not only meeting the love of her life, yet having to be patient, surrender and continue to double down on falling in love with herself... until he finally said, why don't you move in, babe. :) How inspiring to see how doing this deep intimacy work also gave her the clarity and courage to leave corporate and thrive as an entrepreneur giving her unique gifts and continuing to expand her talents in her consulting practice. And how humbling for me...

When David interviews me on Office Hours, all three times I'm in and out within 5 to 7 minutes. Yet we always go deep fast. And this was no different. The first half of the interview I had no idea my question would open up such depth of vulnerability. I welcomed his transparency and spiritual evolution into sharing about his journey as an entrepreneur. Finally we moved into how this has deepened his wisdom and faith. What a beautiful man.

And this powerful conversation about turning our shadows into our superpower we also discussed...

There's something bitter sweet about getting to the end of a season... Wow, season 12 of intimate conversations, become the one, this month about the embodiment of you.

We have thoughts, but we are not our thoughts, we have emotions, but we're not our emotions, we even have a beautiful body but we are not our body, we are an Eternal Soul who's chosen to come into a body, to be embodied, to live our unique Divine spark through our very expression and life. It's a big deal!

I adore this brother from another mother. He is the embodiment of a humble, confident, heart centered and honest man. He wants to grow. He wants to take ownership. He wants to be his best self. And he's willing to do hard shit. We're so aligned in respecting one another because we're willing to reveal our shadows and our Humanity. He's such an inspiration to me and how his relationship with Shani is built on weekly check-ins and purifying their vessels so that the relationship is clean.

I just got off a call with a potential new client. I was reflecting to her how she was looping, her brilliant survival strategy to be safe, to figure it out, to gain some sense of control of outside circumstances… yet she wasn't experiencing peace, empowerment, self-assurance, confidence in her worth, or her ability to navigate challenges from her mind…

There came a moment without any coaching really, just being together, looking at patterns, sharing stories with her, BEING me where something in her let go, snuggled into my arms, let me in… and everything got quiet. She ag...

Sometimes when I embrace a new client, it's a very clear result they're looking for and we get 'er done and they happily move on. Other times the connection is so rich and deep, not only do they stay for years, they become an Allana Pratt Method Coach because after all... the work, works! 

Yet never before has someone also turned the tables and interviewed ME! Until Amanda :-) This gorgeous woman is a force to be reckoned with, brave beyond measure, a glorious mother and a massive gift to our community. 

I'm honored to be...

I adore this woman. I adored her the moment I met her, we've been on each other's Podcast before, we've shared dinner in Byron Bay, Australia last July, and tonight's podcast took our sisterhood even deeper.

I respect her vulnerability, transparency, her badass take no prisoners fortitude mixed with her innocence and willingness to make mistakes, grow learn and evolve, and discover even more of who she truly is. This woman's a trailblazer with a glorious Visionary Legacy and I'm privileged to call her my friend.

I adore this woman. I adored her the moment I met her, we've been on each other's Podcast before, we've shared dinner in Byron Bay, Australia last July, and tonight's podcast took our sisterhood even deeper.

I respect her vulnerability, transparency, her badass take no prisoners fortitude mixed with her innocence and willingness to make mistakes, grow learn and evolve, and discover even more of who she truly is. This woman's a trailblazer with a glorious Visionary Legacy and I'm privileged to call her my friend.

I don't remember having this much fun doing a solo Podcast in a while. I think it's because I love telling stories about my client's successful results, their beautiful brave hearts, their exquisite deliciousness.

Meeting God and The Goddess is 1 of 5 of the Processes in the upcoming Find the One or Awaken the One MASTERY which launches later next year. We are starting Become the One Mastery this January 2025 which includes Little You, Sitting in the Fire, Dance of Polarity, Theatre of Redemption and Conscious communion with the Beloved. The Processes each build upon one another until...

I love how in Podcast interviews with clients that I discover things I never knew even though we have faced the darkest shadows and most transparent vulnerabilities together. I discovered first hand how one of her daughters says she's 'sort of herself' at school, with friends, with family… but when she's with her mom, she's 100% herself. OMG. Is there any greater complement than to know you've created a safe space for our children to be real?

I seriously think I'm healed from ever questioning that my dream for relationships is unfounded. Johann and Rachel pour PRAISE & RESPECT into each other's Souls. They are a beautiful, transparent and authentic couple who is engaged in co-devotional practices and brave transparent communication that I've always craved. It's possible! And of course the inside always creates the outside so their deep internal devotional self practice is clearly at the root of their shared devotion.

Who the fuck knew I would cry at the end? What an honor to speak of Making Love with Life, one of my Allana Pratt Method Processes and address your awesome questions gathered by my social media department. There are many examples from my life and my successful client's lives that show you what's possible when it comes to you valid concerns around intimacy, sexual connection, repairing ruptures and awakening your most glorious sacred orgasmic energy. Enjoy!

I answered the following questions and went on many delicious tangents!

I can't imagine what it takes to be a full-time family law litigator, own your own practice for 40 years, then get multiple coaching certifications and show up with such zest for life and joy for being alive... while simultaneously beginning to understand that feeling doesn't happen in the mind, it happens in the body... and that there are no feelings that are wrong or bad, that we aren't wrong or bad, that all feelings are a beautiful part of Being Human. This has been the Exquisite journey of watching Rosie come into my Inner Circle coaching program, become a...

Wow what a phenomenal blast from the past with my soul brother Blake! It gives me such joy to watch where we both were a couple of years ago when we recorded this episode and I just had to share it with you delicious ones again. Watch out for the next Intimate Conversations episodes with Blake that will be airing in November, it gets even juicer which I didn't even know was possible. Love you brother!

Divinity is absolutely bonkers magical and amazing, of COURSE I welcomed Larry back to the podcast with the theme From Head to Heart as he shared with us the journey of writing his latest book, the Spirit of Fatherhood.

And when he embarked on writing this book about faith, indeed his faith was tested. In the interview you will hear so many ego deaths when it came to family, animals, his boys, his marriage, his business, his physical body, depression... yet it didn't stop and Larry kept going until he surrendered and became the embodiment of Hope.<...

In this episode I love talking about how to leave the painful world of anxiety, second guessing, fear-based strategizing, desperate seeking of understanding into the quieter wiser realm of the heart's truth… which sets us up to descend even further into the hip's knowing, the soul's embodiment.

I created this process based on all I've learned in the past 20 years, based in my own suffering of, Why did he leave me? cheat on me? hurt me? use me? Why why why… it was driving me mad! While I'm proud of my Ivy League education and graduating with hono...

How magical that Elizabeth came to me back in 2015 and we began our journey together regarding intimacy with money and her relationship with her father. About eight years later she returned when shit was really hitting the fan and she elegantly had a spiritual breakdown~ breakthrough in her ability to let go of family drama and find her wholeness, centeredness and enoughness on the inside.

What an instant connection with Magda Kay, it turns out we both have the same human design, we are both 6/2s, Hermit Role Model, and it's fascinating when you get somebody and understand them so instantly.

It was also fascinating to me to learn what it's like to live in a polyamorous tantric community and discover the healing and freedom she experienced. Also curious that as she's completed that phase she's moved back to Poland to share what she's learned developing a certification around Tantra and Intimacy.

In this episode I love how life provided aligned personal and professional stories to share with you so as to best answer your wonderful questions and support your intimate relationships in thriving :-)

-Your first question was: How can I communicate my need for reassurance to my partner without seeming needy or dependent?

-I discussed the difference between need and needy. I explored how discovering the source of our communications changes everything because we can be connecting from emptiness or wholeness, manipulation or invitation, attachment to the results or allowance of all.

-Your...

I love this woman! Who knew both of us would cry so much!? Tears of gratitude, being moved that the 'work works'. We shared how the depth of safety we experience in our bodies now is magnificent compared to when we were trying to control outside circumstances to be good enough, pretty enough, safe enough, chosen for a job, chosen by a man... how glorious it has been to watch Kristina after her divorce, integrate old wounds and fall madly in love with herself.

Blown away as I imagined by return guest John Wineland. Right out of the gate as I expressed the theme of the month with turning anger into fierce love, John took us on a deep dive into the energy of anguish, when anger and grief are combined. He's so right, underneath my anger I always want to sob (and I shed some tears on this podcast). He spoke of how when we widen our anger in the yogic practice and open, we reconnect with our hearts and authentic anguish is accessible to express AND much more palpable to receive...

In this episode I reveal why I created the Theatre of Redemption and why it works… and why many clients avoid it yet once they go through it the first time, their life opens up. I move on to answer (5) of your awesome questions... -1. Could you share your insights on the first steps someone should take when they feel completely overwhelmed by anger and betrayal after a relationship ends? *Feel. Thinking won't help. Distracting and bypassing clearly make it worse. Create space, a safe container, with a facilitator such as myself, or the backdrop of Nature or being re...

OK why is it that I lose my shit and cry my face off with grateful happy tears every time I talk to these two? I loooove them. Their bravery, willingness to do the work, to feel and stay connected to themselves and one another, their team mentality, their assuming the best with one another even when triggered, their honoring of each other's feelings...  They are nothing short of inspirational.

Oh The Places You'll Go! That Dr. Seuss book title reminds me of our growth and evolution as leaders! This blast from the past interview in 2016 with John Wineland on Intimate Conversations highlighted John when we both contributed to the Good Men Project. John has travelled world-wide teaching his vision of embodied men's work and deep relational practice. Back in 2014, he founded The New Men's Work Project, which has attracted men from around the world looking to develop as leaders in their relationships and communities. Soon as a return guest in 2024 in Season 12 of Intimate Conversations, he'll share more...

I'm always left spellbound by the breathtaking honor of connecting with Dr. Marc Gafni. When he speaks every cell of my body comes alive, my soul feels ignited, I'm able to literally feel Eros in, as and through me. It brought me to tears. We spoke of his new book that I invite you to purchase, First Principles and First Values. Not only did we speak of Eros and Pseudo Eros, but a new word, Erosvalue in response to the meta-crisis. And yet what does this mean to your life and intimate relationships? In this inspiring conversation you will...

I loved answering your questions so we can find the Gift in the Sh*tshow! First I shared about finding harmony in conflict: In relationships, conflict and stark polarities can often seem overwhelming. You asked, how can couples find the 'gifts' hidden within these tense moments? Can you share examples of how embracing conflict can lead to deeper understanding and intimacy? I spoke of clients caught in a cycle of him being frustrated and she shutting down… AND how to pattern interrupt and see the 'enemy' not as each other, but the cycle they were caught in. Conflict is sh...

Life is amazing in that we never know the impact we make, whose heart we touch. Yet sometimes we have the magical blessing of knowing... like when I discovered Myola had been following me for a decade! She is an expert in her own right and we've been on similar Summit Panels over the years and I was honored beyond measure to discover she was ready to dive into this level of work. She's become such a huge contribution to our inner circle community, even traveling across the globe to be with us at the Annual Intimacy Retreat in...

Oh my God I met a soul brother. How is it that some people you instantly have a ridiculous blast with going deep, sharing truths, instantly understanding each other, and championing each other's purpose? Dr. Michael is delicious! Exquisite :) Connected. On purpose and a gift to us all.

We began our discussion on how dreams and universal symbolism came so easily to him. Given how he was raised being shown symbols from his mother, when he saw astrology symbols it instantly made sense but also opened another portal to a sense of knowing, mastery and genius that...

In this solo episode regarding sitting in the fire and feeling all the feels, I enjoyed answering your spot-on questions. Q1: Allana, why do people bypass, it totally annoys me when they pretend they're over it, but clearly they're not. A: Yes, I call it sprinkles on top of the ice cream cone of shit. I agree that it's highly annoying and yet underneath it all, they are terrified, so have compassion whether it's somebody else or you who is doing the bypassing. The reason I mentioned you might be bypassing too, is that people tend to annoy me...

Talk about an awakening of presence, elegance, confidence and unapologetic ownership of her dreams... I loved this one on one girl night connection about Little You, feelings and love with my inspiring client Samantha. This recording came on the tail end of spending close to a week with her in Costa Rica at the annual Intimacy Retreat... and was even more special given she came to me recommended by a past client who found the love of her life and is now married.

Samantha does the work, she's learned to slow down and feel her feelings, play...

Okay, we descended to 300 feet... instantly. There's a reason why her podcast has 100 million downloads. She's captivating. There's a reason why I asked her to support me in my podcast expansion for you. She's brilliant. And I love the reason why we connected... sharing of our divorces, shadows and God was enlivening. From the Mother wound to Little You and sacred sexuality... we shared what's possible when you are embodied and truly surrender.

In this exquisite conversation we also discussed...

I loved filming this episode upon returning from Costa Rica where I did a very powerful Little You Process with the attendees. I'm grateful to answer questions that my social media team has gathered from you to navigate intimacy challenged by unresolved childhood trauma.

In terms of deepening intimacy and attracting healthy partnership that thrives overtime, absolutely every single client I've ever worked with for the past 20 yrs required healing emotional triggers, integrating past trauma's and deepening their relationship with their vulnerable, transparent Little You. The results are epic! They 'become the one' to 'find the one...

Oh my God how I love this woman! How inspiring to listen to her story from dating dud's desperately, to not only meeting the love of her life, yet having to be patient, surrender and continue to double down on falling in love with herself... until he finally said, why don't you move in, babe. :) 

How inspiring to see how doing this deep intimacy work also gave her the clarity and courage to leave corporate and thrive as an entrepreneur giving her unique gifts and continuing to expand her talents in her consulting practice. 

And ho...

Healing Happens! 

This woman is one of the most delicious humans on the planet, an inspiration beyond measure, a heart of gold, brave as shit. She's a testament to never giving up on love and doing whatever it takes to heal and open her heart with such a positive attitude and of course, the results to show for it! 

She knew that the therapy and courses she took moved the dial but hadn't created lasting healing or transformation...  after all she was still single. I'm honored that she saw something in how I was bei...
