Memorable Quotes:

"The more we come into the right relationship with our sexuality, shadow, let's be very clear, shadow does not mean negative. Shadow does not mean bad. Shadow simply means I am not aware of what is there. And the more that we bring conscious awareness to what may be there, the more that we develop a relationship with these parts of us that might be carrying shame or might be carrying fear." [00:10:06] – Dr. Cat Meyer

"We can't access our highest states of whether it's consciousness, pleasure, ecstasy, unless we feel safe." [00:41:38] – Dr. Cat Meyer
