"I'm not for Everyone Podcast with Dr. Lee

Episode 16: P is for Pussy

Dr Lee welcomes Sara Chizek, Grief & Sensuality Coach, to talk about pain, pleasure, power, and pussy. Three of those words are more comfortable than the other.

So what IS pussy? What does it mean in this context?

For so, so many of us, pussy is a “vulgar” word. It’s a word we don’t use in “polite” company...it’s something we’ve been taught is “dirty”. And because of the stigma around it, women don’t understand their bodies, and by extension their emotions -- especially their capacity for pleasure.

All of the social programming we’ve been subject to disconnects us from our emotions and bodies when it comes to pleasure. We’re encouraged to cap the limits of our emotions, only acknowledging and experiencing the middle road of joy, rage, and anything in between.

Pussy is about permission to let go of everything you’ve been carrying with you throughout life. Pussy is the ultimate expression of our freedom. This is an episode that you must hear to spark the reclamation of living the most complete and fulfilled life possible. Reclaim your life, your power, your identity by reclaiming your pleasure."

The Purpose Girl Podcast with Carin Rockind

Episode #143 Turning Grief into Gold

February 2021

“In this episode of The PurposeGirl Podcast, I’m fortunate to be joined by Sara Chizek, a Grief and Sensuality Coach who empowers women to harness the energy of grief, anger, stuckness and turn this energy into joy, pleasure and power to unlock their desires. Sara shares with us how losing her father at the age of 4 lead her to do some serious questioning of her beliefs in her adulthood. She has harnessed her grief and used it to power for goodness in her life. We discuss:

• How so much of what you may be seeking to numb – consciously or subconsciously – is much more nurture than nature.

• The common source of our need for validation.

• How emotions are stored physically in the body, and how this has an impact on our overall health.

• How grief is actually useful data for us.

• How most people are afraid of facing grief since they believe that if they “go there” they won't be able to make it back.

• Sara leads us through a practice on grief, one that is powerful and transformative that I know you will find useful.”

Podcast Episode #130 Embodying the Practice of Grief with Sara Chizek

October 2020

“What does it mean to make love to grief? This week, I’m speaking to Sara Chizek about the sensuality and creativity that arrives when we practice the art of grief embodiment. After shutting herself off to the four-year-old girl who lost a father, her exploration of grief in her body opened her up to feeling whole and at home. What would it look like if we tried to practice grieving as much as we practiced resisting grief? Listen in for a powerful conversation.”

Podcast Episode #6 Grief, Healing and Divine Intervention

December 2019

“Sara Chizek lost her father to cancer at the age of 4, leaving her with minimal conscious memories of him. Through years of shutting out grief from the loss of her dad, Sara became numb to the trauma and felt guilt for not feeling sad. In her early 20’s Sara became emotionally triggered when a family member shared a story of her father, it was at that moment Sara realized she didn’t have any stories of her dad and was suppressing joy. Through therapy, interpersonal reflection, learning more about her dad and engaging with a medium, Sara discusses how she reconnected with her dad spiritually. Through the guidance and wisdom she received, Sara started leading with her intuition and trusting that her father's spirit resides in her. Sara’s newfound connection led her on a spiritual journey to find more purpose in her life to help women embody grief.”
