Sex Ritual Radio is where intimacy, communication, and embodiment become sacred pathways to healing and aliveness. Hosted by Rose Heartsong, Certified Intimacy Coach, Somatic Guide, and Sacred Intimate, this show invites you into the living edge of love, desire, and conscious relationship. Through soul-nourishing conversations on conscious partnership, erotic polarity, somatic awareness, sacred intimacy, conscious kink, and holistic living, we remember that healing does not happen through avoidance or performance. It happens through presence. Sex Ritual Radio is a space for raw truth, emotional depth, nervous system attunement, and embodied wisdom. A space where the masculine and feminine are reimagined for the New Earth, where devotion replaces domination, and desire becomes a force for transformation. Here, passion is medicine. Presence is devotion. And how we love is how we touch the divine.

29 MAY 2026 · What if the reason your relationship lost its spark isn't about compatibility — it's about polarity?

20 APR 2026 · Unmasking Love: Narcissism and Codependency in Relationships with Eddie Margines, PhD Are you in a relationship with a narcissist — or are you one?
This week Rose Heartsong sits down with Edward "Eddie" Margines, PhD, clinical psychologist and host of Moody, to pull back the curtain on one of the most misused words in modern relationships.
They break down the clinical reality of narcissistic personality disorder — grandiosity, entitlement, low empathy, the hunger for validation — and why casually labeling your ex probably says more about the dynamic than the diagnosis.
They get into love bombing, the "carrot and stick" control loop, codependency as the perfect counterpart, and how narcissism shows up in the bedroom as performance and extraction rather than presence and connection.
Rose also gets personal — sharing her own experience in an abusive relationship, what it taught her about equating love with chaos, and the Joshua Tree kambo and mushroom ceremony that cracked everything open. If you've ever loved someone who made you feel crazy, this one's for you.

13 APR 2026 · On Sex Ritual Radio, host Rose Heartsong welcomes guest Sarah Lane, founder of Rage Retreats and creator of Breath Twerk, after meeting at a Women Over Dinner ritual experience. They discuss women’s rage as a suppressed, taboo force that can be safely expressed and transmuted into pleasure, power, and purposeful action, distinguishing rage from aggression and emphasizing awareness, permission, and nervous-system-safe boundaries.
Lane shares her background with anger and grief from her absent father, how breathwork and somatic practices led her to rage rituals, and critiques spiritual bypassing and gaslighting in some spiritual communities. She offers practical tools for “anger in” versus “anger out,” including screaming into a pillow, movement, grounding, breath, and water. Lane explains how Rage Retreats integrate post-rage pleasure practices like twerking to expand capacity for embodiment and orgasmic power, and shares links

Sex Ritual Radio is where intimacy, communication, and embodiment become sacred pathways to healing and aliveness. Hosted by Rose Heartsong, Certified Intimacy Coach, Somatic Guide, and Sacred Intimate, this show invites you into the living edge of love, desire, and conscious relationship. Through soul-nourishing conversations on conscious partnership, erotic polarity, somatic awareness, sacred intimacy, conscious kink, and holistic living, we remember that healing does not happen through avoidance or performance. It happens through presence. Sex Ritual Radio is a space for raw truth, emotional depth, nervous system attunement, and embodied wisdom. A space where the masculine and feminine are reimagined for the New Earth, where devotion replaces domination, and desire becomes a force for transformation. Here, passion is medicine. Presence is devotion. And how we love is how we touch the divine.
