Her Mother TongueHer Mother Tongue is about reclaiming the role of mother. Not just the label...as an abundant, revolutionary force of care, creation, and identity that belongs to every woman. Author: Felicia Sol
I come from women who survived by shrinking. I tried that toomade my life neat, made my voice polite, made my longing a private hobby. It didnt hold. I was raised by an alcoholic Lakota runaway and discipled by a cult that told me holiness was obedience. My body knew better. It kept humming: there is a wilder, kinder way. These days I practice a daily liturgy of listeningintuitive, erotic, embarrassingly tender. I mother four bright beings and the girl inside me who wanted to be free. I teach self-worth as sacrament, boundaries as mercy, and desire as a compass you can trust. My God is love. My work is remembering. My offering is a rebels theology of transformationusable, embodied, just dangerous enough to set you honest. hermothertongue.substack.com Language: en Genres: Society & Culture Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

Why we don’t want sex
Wednesday, 5 November, 2025
Most relationships aren’t starved for sex—they’re starved for attunement. In this kickoff, we unpack why “I don’t want sex” often means “I don’t feel safely, slowly, specifically known.” The episode opens with a real call from a friend questioning divorce, then moves through safety rituals, curiosity as foreplay, and “mother-grade noticing” you can practice tonight. “I’m not into sex” often means: I don’t feel safe, seen, or specifically known. We address why we need to connect first and why it’s not asking for a lot. Want to know me! Don’t ask me to open my body before you open my mind.What you’ll learnWhy “I don’t want sex” often means “I don’t feel safely, slowly, specifically known.”Performance vs presence: date-night checkboxes vs reading the body.Consent as architecture (negotiate → check-ins → aftercare).“Mother spidey senses” for everyone: notice need before words.Self-knowledge first: the Gesture Glossary + a 60-sec self-scan.Try one of these tonightOne slow kiss (no goal)• One real question you don’t know the answer to• One sensory upgrade (light/music/scent)• Ask: “What helped your body breathe?”Pull quotes“We’re not asking for more performance.
