Regena Thomashauer (a.k.a. “Mama Gena”) is a teacher and bestselling author, mother, and media personality, and founder and CEO of the School of Womanly Arts. She believes that women are the greatest untapped natural resource on the planet. Thomashauer’s approach stems from decades of research in the social, cultural, and economic history of women. Her distinctive style – at once irreverent, unwavering, affirming, and swear-y – has engaged thousands from all over the world. In addition to leading the School of Womanly Arts, Thomashauer has authored four popular books, including her newest New York Times Bestseller, Pussy: A Reclamation, and has been featured widely as a leading expert in modern feminism. She lives and works in New York City.

Today's guest is the incomparable Regena Thomashauer, aka Mama Gena, author of Pussy: A Reclamation. She’s a teacher, bestselling author, mother, and media personality. She’s also the CEO of The School of Womanly Arts which she began in her living room in 1998 and has since grown into a global movement. 

Gena believes that women are the greatest untapped natural resource on the planet, and as people of all genders reclaim the magnificence of the divine feminine, we can find our true nature and thrive as one collective people.

Our conversation revolves around sacred, feminine power and the lost womanly arts. We unpack her latest book, how men can deepen their understanding of the feminine, some of the pleasure practices women can use to reclaim their power, and how understanding the arc of masculine and feminine polarity can help us create more radiant relationships.

But the root of so much of the stress we experience comes down to a deficiency in one overlooked nutrient — magnesium.
