Power & The Pedestal
I first heard about Layla Martin in a ‘Wild Woman Workshop’ at Livelinge festival in The Netherlands 2018.
The workshop had spoken to every part of me. It covered sisterhood, vulberability, empowerment, sexuality and unleashing the inner wild within us.
Totally blown open and vibrating with a resonance of aliveness I ran up to the facilitator at the end to ask who she had learnt from.
She told me she had learnt from Layla Martin.
I’d never heard of the woman but when I went on her website I was astounded to see that she seemed to have built a colourful, vibrant, sexy and exciting business teaching women to love themselves and to love their bodies!
I never, ever knew that such a thing could be possible.
Scrolling further into the vortex of her website I saw that she had a program for certifying Sex, Love and Relationship coaches - my eyes popped open and I immediately put my email down for the waitlist.
After that day I would proceed to spend next to NO time on my computer as I had moved the conscious community in Sweden and was absolutely immersed in my own healing journey there.
Seven months would go by and I felt myself literally stripped bare of my previous identity, like a tree stripped of its leaves in the coming of autumn, then buried under snow in the depths of winter.
As the spring emerged and my dark night of soul was coming to a close I felt again the pull to share this work.
I began to pray for a course to reveal itself to me.
Three days later I would receive an email saying that applications were now open for Layla Martins 2020 Sex, Love and Relationship certification.
Immediately it was a yes.
I flew home to Australia so that I could make money while studying, and of course was then locked down for two years.
For me this was a blessing, instead of juggling a social life, work and study I dedicated myself 1000 percent to the program.
Layla is a powerhouse. Her work is yang in nature, meaning there is SO much content to read, listen to, learn, practice, practice, practice.
Many of the students could not complete the program due to its sheer volume.
I spent days in my room self pleasuring, crying, raging - again in a chrysalis of transformation from which I would emerge a potent Pussy Queen.
I fell in love with Layla.
She had been studying this work since she was 15!
She was making millions of dollars while literally changing thousands of lives for the benefit of all pussy - kind.
She was a wealth of wisdom, pouring fourth information seemingly oozing out of her like an endless fountain of self exploration, study and a higher consciousness knowing.
She was a shameless witch.
Throughout the program we were able to watch her coaching colleagues and her way of navigating their unique challenges simply blew me away in its shamanic, magical and deeply witchy guidance.
She was vibrating in a high frequency of aliveness, sexiness, unapologetic power that emanated out of her clothing, her energy and her being.
I put her on a pedestal.
She became my guide, a guide that so few of us in white bodies coming from colonised countries ever receive.
She was like this guiding star that was showing me the way, yet she was way out of reach.
Then, last week when I gifted myself the investment of travelling across the world for a one week retreat with her I got to meet her in person.
I was jittering inside so hard it was like my inner little girl thought she was meeting the spice-girls.
I knew I had elevated her above me to a degree that was unnecessary but I didn’t care. It felt so good to be in such reverence, respect and awe of someone.
No religion, ideology or Government had ever excited me like this.
And then the training began, and there she was, the real human form, skinny and strong, colourful, Queenly, sitting on a platform right in front of me….and the 94 other women / femmes also at the training.
As the week got underway all my suspicions were confirmed. She was as epic and in person teacher as she was an online one.
I asked her a question in our Q&A and she answered it for 25 minutes.
She rapped every lyric to WAP on our ecstatic dance.
She got fully naked on the second day as she demonstrated pussy worship with her own body completely unashamedly.
Yet, she also had a resting bitch face during the lunch breaks that said give me my space I'm off duty.
She brought her vitamins down to the kitchen late at night tired and introverted.
She was a human. She is a human.
After a week of being in her presence, in her energy, vibrating directly in the pulse of her work, do I still have her on a pedestal?
Yes, I do.
But the pedestal is not a star thousands of unreachable km’s in the distance.
It is a small elevation above where I now stand.
Because honestly she deserves that, she has worked fucking hard to get there.
And, I see now, that all the things I loved in Layla I see already alive, or being cultivated within me.
I have been studying this work since I was 26.
I am making thousands of dollars with this work, enough to leave my teaching job permanently and travel around the world, changing 100’s of lives for the benefit of all pussy - kind.
I am a wealth of my own unique wisdom, born from my studies and my own unique journey through this delicious thing called life, and indeed a connection to a higher consciousness knowing.
I am a shameless witch, I coach my clients using shamanic, magical and deep guidance that is growing more and more potent every single day.
I vibrate at a high frequency of aliveness, sexiness, unapologetic power that emanates out of my clothing, my energy, my expression and my being.
I can see clearly that Layla has been the teacher I needed to get to where I am, and now that I am here I fully trust myself to keep walking this path with or without her.
They say the teacher arrives when the student is ready.
I do not advise putting someone unconsciously on a pedestal and blindly following their footsteps in a way that gives away your power.
But rather to see in someone a path forged to a destination you too wish to journey towards.
While knowing that your journey will be unique, that your ability to walk the path comes from a power that is already ignited in you.
To allow yourself to be guided for as long as it serves your unique path, and then to bow in gratitude and follow a new guide, or indeed your own internal guidance.
Thank you Layla for all the work you have done which has allowed me to see in myself all that I am capable of and more.
If you are a Sex witch that has been thinking about doing her work then I can support you taking her Sex Love and Relationship coaching certification.
I am an affiliate of the program so if you do want to join let me know and I'll send you my link which will give me a payment.
I can answer any questions about this program but please know that it is a HIGH intensity program which will not be aligned for everyone.
Maybe you are still on your own transformational journey for now.
Maybe you have another teacher / teachers who are your guiding star.
Maybe you want 1:1 / in person work to take you where you want to go.
And maybe I can offer you some of those things.
