What if your numbness wasn’t a problem—but a portal?

In this episode, Jannine is joined by Female Sexual Wellness Pioneer, and Waands founder, Courtney Davis, for a conversation that goes far beyond orgasms. Together, they explore how slow pleasure, crystal wands, and body-based wisdom can unlock a deeper, more empowered connection to yourself.

Whether you're brand new to sacred sexuality or ready to go deeper with your crystal pleasure tools, this episode will help you shift from performative pleasure to personal presence, from high-stimulation habits to subtle, full-body aliveness.

We cover:

✨ Courtney’s journey from vibrators to founding Waands

✨ How crystal wands helped her connect with her body’s wisdom

✨ Why numbness is not something to fix—but to feel

✨ The nervous system shift that happens through slow pleasure

✨ Self-pleasure as regulation, not just stimulation

✨ Building trust in your body and recognizing a true “full-body yes”

✨ The surprising link between sexuality and intuition

✨ How emotional release (grief, rage) can transmute into pleasure

✨ Our favorite pleasure tools — and how to choose yours

Episode 100 — let’s celebrate! 🎉
In this milestone episode of Unapologetic with Jannine MacKinnon, I’m reflecting on the wild, powerful journey of recording 100 episodes — from hiding my podcast while healing my witch wounds to speaking unapologetically about sacred sexuality, sensual embodiment, and orgasmic empowerment.

We dive deep into the 3 most common beliefs blocking your pleasure and sensual embodiment:

1. You have to earn your pleasure

2. You must stay in control at all times

3. Your orgasm and pleasure are too much work

These patterns run deep in the nervous system — and in this episode, I share exactly how you can begin to rewire them using nervous-system-led embodiment, trust, and devotion.

🎁 Giveaway Alert:
To celebrate, I’m giving away a free coaching session + one year access to the Sensual Embodiment Collective (valued at $650!).
To enter:

1. Leave a rating or review

2. Screenshot it and send to me via Instagram or email at info@janninemackinnon.com

Your weekly pleasure ritual is not just another thing to check off your self-care list. It’s a sacred rhythm—a devotional practice that will anchor you in your sensuality, your power, and your joy. In this heart-led solo episode, I’m sharing how this simple but potent ritual completely transformed my life… and how you can create your own, even with a full schedule and limited space.

Whether you’re feeling the pull to reconnect with yourself, expand your pleasure capacity, or simply create a consistent rhythm that nourishes you from the inside out—this episode is your invitation to begin.

✨ I walk you through:

• Why devotion is different from self-care (and how it changes the game)

• What my personal weekly ritual looks like

• How to create your own ritual space, no matter where you live

• What to do when resistance or doubt creeps in

• And why this practice is so much more than rest—it’s a reclamation.

What if your deepest wounds were actually doorways to the love and connection you’re craving?

In this episode, I sit down with Human Design & Gene Keys expert Kehla G to explore the Venus Sequence — the aspect of the Gene Keys that reveals your emotional imprinting, relational patterns, and soul path to healing through love.

Together, we explore how:

• Your Gene Keys reflect emotional wounding and karmic lessons

• Trauma and pleasure are intimately linked in nervous system healing

• Your core wound may hold the secret to your spiritual breakthrough

Kehla also does a live reading of my own chart, revealing how my patterns of hunger, turbulence, and deafness became keys to boundlessness, humanity, and intuitive insight.

This one is juicy, layered, and deeply affirming. If you’ve been craving a soulful way to deepen your self-understanding and expand your capacity for love—this is for you.

Think you need a new toy to feel more? Think again.
In this episode, I’m diving into the holistic sex tools that have transformed not only my own pleasure—but the pleasure, confidence, and radiance of so many of my clients.

These tools go beyond quick dopamine hits and open up your body to deeper waves of turn-on, presence, and lasting satisfaction. I’m sharing how you can use breath, sound, movement, energy, focus, intention, and identity to radically shift your relationship with pleasure—from something you chase to something you live from.

Inside this episode:

• Why toys and novelty aren’t bad—but don’t create lasting expansion

• How to rewire your nervous system to feel more pleasure

• A breakdown of the 7 Holistic Sex Tools and how to use them

• My personal story of breaking into 20+ minute orgasmic waves

If you’re ready to move from performance to embodied pleasure, this is your invitation.

This week’s episode is raw, unfiltered, and straight from the heart.
I’m sharing what it looks like to choose yourself—especially when it’s uncomfortable, especially when it’s inconvenient.
The power of saying no.
The radical act of listening to your body’s wisdom over outside pressure.
And the deep nourishment that only comes when you honor your truth.

Inside, we explore:

• Why saying no is a sacred, body-led decision (not a failure)

• How radical rest is a form of devotion, not laziness

• Navigating intuitive health choices when the world expects compliance

• Honoring your depletion instead of pushing through it

• The energy of sacred sexuality as fuel for healing and restoration

This episode is your permission slip to soften, listen, and trust the woman you’re becoming.
