Embodying the Practice: Intimate with Ayahuasca

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/10/24

In part 2 of our Embodying the Practice conversation, Andrew Marshall returns to talk about intimacy - with the medicine, and with the ones we love. We explore his experiences with Ayahuasca - the openings, the purges, the raw honesty of meeting himself and how that honesty now lives in his purpose and his relationships. What do we keep from our partners in the name of love?What truths sit unsaid in the body?And what does it take to speak from that place - unarmored, alive, fully present. This

Loving the Avoidant

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/09/19

What does it mean to love someone who cannot stay? To pour yourself into the silence of unanswered notes, unread poems, dangling carrots of “thinking of you,” and calls that exit before they land? In this episode, I step into the rawness of loving the avoidant — the man who hides behind polished confidence, the boy inside who is terrified of conflict, shame, and intimacy. But this is not only about the other. This is about the avoidant within us... within me. Attachment styles reflect our own

Wired Love: Imprinting Aliveness

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/09/12

What if the way you love, long, and ache isn’t random — but the wiring of your soul? In this solo episode, Gwenm takes you into the body’s first imprints of love and eros, from the womb to the nervous system, through vows made in heartbreak and the Erotic Blueprints that shape our desires. With raw stories of survival, longing, and devotion, practices for rewiring through pleasure, and poetry that lands in your bones, Wired for Love explores how ache becomes cathedral, how longing becomes erotic,

Savage Rope: Shibari Berlin Suspension, Breath and...

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/09/05

We tied to each other in Berlin. Not for performance. Not for pretty pictures. For the ache of what happens when rope meets skin and silence stretches between two bodies. Shibari took us somewhere we couldn’t script. The knots held more than flesh — they held memory, hunger, release. We talk about what it felt like to surrender, to hang between trust and fear, to feel the rope carve its language into our skin. This isn’t a tutorial. It’s a conversation about the intimacy of being bound, the

Selfless Starvation: what dies in a woman when desire...

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/08/29

Women are praised for being selfless — but the cost is often desire: starved, silenced, abandoned. The marriage that quietly goes cold. The body that goes numb. The fire that flickers out. Melissa Barnes knows this terrain. Outwardly successful, inwardly empty, she spent years performing the role of the “good woman” while starving herself of desire, intimacy, and fire — until she became a ghost in her own life. After two decades as a funeral director and end-of-life care worker, she witnessed the

When Desire Outlives the Body

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/08/22

When Desire Outlives the Body I recorded this episode in Berlin — the city my mother once called home, and the place I brought her back to in hopes of finding some kind of peace, or beauty, or closure. Instead, what I found was diapers in hotel bathrooms, bureaucracy in cold German offices, hospital corridors, rage, tenderness, shame, laughter, and the kind of intimacy no one prepares you for. This is not a clean story. It is messy and visceral and full of contradiction. My mother is

The Art of Awareness

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/08/08

Acting isn’t about pretending. It’s about presence. About listening. About coming back to what’s real. What if it was never about becoming someone else—but finally becoming yourself? In this episode, Gwenm speaks with Lori Triolo—actor, director, and master teacher of Meisner and Fitzmaurice Voicework®—about how the craft of acting can draw us into deeper contact with our truth, rather than pulling us away from it. They explore voice as a measure of emotion, breath as a doorway into the present

To Love the Son and the Inherited Wound

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/08/01

This conversation with Alyssa Hawn—Theta Healer, Human Design and Gene Keys enthusiast—dives into the places where love meets resistance. Alyssa carries the echo of a wound that has whispered through her bloodline for lifetimes, shaping the way she mothers her son in this one. We explore the invisible fractures that can keep a mother from fully softening, the lineage patterns that live in the body, and the way old pain can shadow the love we long to give. What does it take to nurture when we’ve

Sculpting Venus

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/07/11

What happens when you cast the most hidden, most judged parts of the body into permanence? In this unfiltered and unforgettable episode of Skin & Soul, I sit down with British sculptor Jamie McCartney—creator of The Great Wall of Vagina (now Vulva), The Spice of Life, and a growing body of work that dares to mold the raw truth of our erotic anatomy. From labia to penis, outer lips to internal vaginal walls, Jamie’s art captures what we’re taught to hide. This isn’t porn. It’s not provocation

Kiss Me Like You Mean It

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/06/27

Kissing and tango have a lot in common.Both are about timing, presence, and the space between bodies.A kiss—like a good tango—isn’t about how fast you get there.It’s about how attuned you are to the other person’s rhythm. In tango, you don’t rush. You feel. You pause. You let breath and weight guide the next move. That’s what makes it erotic. It’s not just steps—it’s listening.A great kiss works the same way. It doesn’t push. It waits. It adjusts. It reacts. It leads. It follows. A kiss can be

What happens when a woman refuses to be framed by the world’s gaze—and chooses to see herself through the eyes of the divine? In this episode of Skin and Soul, Gwenm sits down with embodiment coach, sacred photographer, and modern-day priestess Carol Beavers to explore what it means to reclaim the feminine body, the erotic pulse, and the power of pussy—not as performance, but as portal.

Kevin didn’t set out to become a sex and intimacy coach. For 25 years, he was devoted to one woman — his junior high school sweetheart, the only lover he’d ever known. They built a life together anchored in marriage and children. They shared a story rooted with loyalty and love. But then, the axis tilted. She came out as a lesbian. They tried to hold on, but the marriage ended, and Kevin found himself standing in the ashes of everything he thought he knew. What followed could’ve been collapse. But

The Cage of Wants & The Pleasure Ceiling

2025/05/23

We want the highs. We chase the peak experiences—bliss, orgasm, success, visibility. But few of us ask what we're willing to feel to get there. This episode is about the places we cap our pleasure, our truth, our voice. Gwenm speaks to the quiet corners of our permission—the ceilings we’ve built inside our nervous systems and the cages we inherited around desire. It’s about the difference between climax and connection, between sensation and performance. With raw storytelling, body-based wisdom, and

Skin and Soul™: Beyond the Pale with Gwenm A. Carsley ·

2025/05/16

There’s a point in life—often around midlife—when the script we’ve been reading from no longer fits the voice in our throat. Mine came with a quietly growing ache I couldn’t ignore at a point. Then love. Then a complete rupture. Then grief. In this first episode of Skin and Soul, I don’t give you answers. I open the wound.I’m not easing into things. I might be sloppy and inelegant, but my aim is to bring something real to the table, whether it’s pretty or not. Without apologies but with conscious
