123: How to Balance Out Your Desire For ...

Ask Kelly your burning questions in our monthly Vital Life Project membership here.

In this episode, I talk about why desire will never stop, and why that’s actually a good thing.



I share my response to a listener struggling with perfectionism and the fear of passing it on to her daughter. I talk about the insatiable nature of feminine desire, how entitlement creeps in when we lose awareness, and why learning to appreciate even the smallest moments can change everything. I share how I practice this in my own life, from focusing on the comfort of a blanket during a water fast to letting my kids make their own choices, even when it’s inconvenient for me. And I break down how desire, when it’s met with consciousness, can become a powerful force for creation instead of a source of suffering.

You’ll Learn:

• The real reason feminine desire never feels satisfied
• What happens when entitlement sneaks into your relationship with desire
• The surprising link between gratitude and breaking free from the addiction to “more”
• How noticing tiny comforts can shift you out of overwhelm
• Why teaching your kids to honor their own wants can change how your family functions
• The quiet damage of living from “owe” and “deserve”
• How to recognize when your desire is healthy versus when it’s fueled by fear
• The practice that can help you feel fullness even in uncomfortable moments
• Why coming into union with your desire is the most powerful work you can do as a woman
