| Decolonizing Menstruation, Shame + Goddess Worship with Laura Carmody | 06 aoƻt 2026 | 00:37:45 | |
Does the thought of menstrual blood make you cringe? Does the idea bring up disgust, discomfort, or even fear? š©ø Dominant culture dictates the relationship that we āought to haveā to our own bodies, and bodily fluids such as menstrual blood, sweat, and tears. In this episode, Laura Carmody and Lee Devi share a fascinating conversation about menstruation, shame, and religious trauma, with the intention of demystifying the discussion of menstruation in general, but especially from a queer-centered and trans masculine perspective! In this episode, you'll discover: š¹ unlearning shame around menstrual periods and our physical bodies as an intentional act of reclamation š¹ unpacking collective religious trauma and the shame that spiritual doctrines can project onto these subjects š¹ how the dominant cultural frameworks of power disrupt the cyclical nature of humanity š¹ why Ayurveda says that connecting with your menstrual cycle can be a vital sign, like reading your pulse Regardless of our physical form, connecting with our bodies means connecting with our primal, feral, intuitive nature. Harmful power structures have colonized our bodies, policed our reproductive systems, and indoctrinated our nervous systems. Unlearning shame and reclaiming a loving relationship to our bodies is a revolutionary act of primal human nature. Hit play now to find out why. š©ø Laura Carmody is a menstrual cycle educator, postpartum doula, and the founder of Threaded Red. Her work serving women and womb carriers began in 2016, hosting Red Tent Circles in her community, curating interactive Red Tent installations at festivals, and spreading menstrual literacy information.

She served three years as Temple Coordinator at the Goddess Temple of Ashland, Oregon, where she studied ceremonial priestess arts and rites of passage rituals with Lady Graelynn.

She has supported people virtually and locally through the entire womb continuum including: puberty and menarche (onset of menses), menstruation and sexual health, pre-conception, abortion, miscarriage, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and more. In 2023, Laura became a mother, which she calls her greatest accomplishment. Her profound and empowering experience postpartum inspired her to begin offering mother-centered postpartum care professionally in her work as well. @threadedred on Instagram Lauraās recommended books: Mysteries of the Dark Moon by Dimitra George Inanna, the Queen of Heaven and Earth

| Can You Be Polyamorous and Pansexual and Nonbinary? Identity Beyond Binary | 02 juil. 2026 | 00:50:30 | |
Can you be pansexual and nonbinary at the same time? What is polyamory, exactly? Is gender a thing that we own, a social construct, or a mysterious mythical creature? Today, we are exploring identities beyond the binary. šæ We've been taught that love is a finite resource, but that's not how most of us experience love in daily life. Yoga teaches us that, beneath all the labels, every human carries the conscious awareness that is rooted in love, regardless of the physical vessel they're currently wearing. Maybe these labels are all new to you, but describe your child, your sibling, your coworker, or your friend. If this episode helps you love and understand yourself or someone else a little bit better, then I'm glad you're here! In this episode, youāll discover: āØ What does being nonbinary actually mean? Whatās the difference between gender and sex? āØ Can you be nonbinary and pansexual? āØ Whatās the difference between bisexual and pansexual? āØ What is polyamory? What does it mean to be polyamorous? āØ How to interact respectfully with transgender, nonbinary, and other gender nonconforming people (itās simple!) Your identity isn't a test you pass; it's a relationship you cultivate with yourself. Whether you're monogamous or polyamorous, gay or straight, cisgender or transgender, what matters most is building relationships rooted in honesty, compassion, and mutual respect.

| Capricorn Full Moon Astrology + Cancer Mercury Retrograde ā LGBTQ+ Spirituality | 26 juin 2026 | 00:38:50 | |
What would it look like to care for others without abandoning yourself, and practice establishing boundaries proactively to keep a healthy balance? āØ Cancer Season pulls us inward emotionally - especially with the upcoming Mercury Retrograde in this sensitive and deeply passionate sign. The Capricorn Full Moon punctuates Cancer Season Astrology with a dose of strategy, practicality, and structure. We see the concept of āmasculineā and āfeminineā energies in spiritual and esoteric frameworks across time and history, and yet, some queer people feel that this is a harmful perpetuation of the gender binary.

| Queer Priestexx Uprising: Breaking the Binaryā7 Signs of Your Spiritual Power + Reclaiming Spiritual Authority | 15 avr. 2026 | 00:22:00 | |
What if everything we've been taught about personal identity, spirituality, and reality itselfā¦ was built on an illusion? And what if lgbtq+ people can see through that illusion? š The Yogic concept of non-duality invites us to see reality as a living, breathing spectrum of existence. The illusion of duality is the idea in Yoga Philosophy that everything we perceive in our minds as separate from us, is actually part of a unified whole. This episode explores the rising wave of Queer Priestexxes worldwide who intuitively understand this concept, and are reclaiming their power, their voice, and their personal connection to the Divine. In this episode, youāll learn: š What is a queer priestexx? Also known as the queer witch or shaman archetype (beyond religion, gender neutral) š Why reclaiming lgbtq+ joy and queer spiritual authenticity are acts of resistance š How Yoga and Tantra guide us back to unity and Self-realization š Lee shares 7 signs that you may be a part of the sacred Queer Priestexx uprising Queer identity, by its very nature, challenges binary thinking.

| LGBT Yoga, Nonbinary Spirituality, Astrology, + the Priestexx Path | 13 mars 2025 | 01:20:39 | |
Have you ever wondered what it means to walk a path of queerness, spirituality, and service? In this episode, I open up about my journey of becoming a Queer + Nonbinary Priestexx ā a spiritual guide, teacher, and healer whose mission is to create safe spaces for transformation, ritual, and authentic connection. š± I share how my name, Parvati Devi, was given to me by one of my teachers as constant inspiration to embody the qualities of the Hindu Goddess Parvati, and the Divine Mother in general. š As a Priestexx, I support my community in times of transition, grief, and initiation ā through Ritual, Yoga, and Astrology. š This episode also dives into my own initiations: from my first Yoga Teacher Training in Ohio, to traveling and living in intentional Yoga communities, to deepening my personal practice and unraveling years of subconscious conditioning. š My hope is that my story encourages you to embrace your own path of self-acceptance, empowerment, and transformation. While I enjoy working with all people, I feel especially drawn to work with fellow members of the LGBTQ+ community. I believe that Yoga, Ayurveda, Community, and Astrology have an immense healing ability to open us to the primal divine energy within.

| Yoga, Astrology, and Spirituality for the LGBTQ+ Community | 13 mars 2025 | 00:38:45 | |
āØ When I was growing up, I didnāt have any LGBTQ+ role models, so I didnāt know it was okay to be myself. To survive, I molded myself into whoever others wanted me to be, but I didn't know who I was on my own. Perfection was the goal, but āperfectionā kept shifting with everyone elseās expectations. Inside, I was anxious, depressed, and disconnected from my intuition. āØ If this sounds familiar, then this podcast is for you. After more than a decade of Yoga practice, spiritual study, and living a Yogic lifestyle, Iāve learned to unravel those layers of conditioning and illusion ā and in the process, I became the role model I always needed. Today, Iām out and proud as a queer, nonbinary human who uses they/them pronouns, and Iām honored to share this space. Here on the Queer Soul Alchemy Podcast, weāll explore Yoga, Ayurveda, Astrology, and Spirituality through a Queer, Sex-Positive lens. This is a space where we respect each other, normalize taboo subjects like menstruation, death, sexuality, and queerness, and dream together of dismantling patriarchy, capitalism, and colonialism. Expect conversations that trigger remembrance, offer new perspectives, and support you in reclaiming your authentic self!
