Ep. 91 - Claiming your Identities
In this episode, Amber addresses the discourse around 'finding' yourself 'creating' a new version of yourself and how she disagrees but instead believes that what we call finding or creating is actually just remembering and accepting who we've always been. This week Amber delves into identity from multiple perspectives including the identity you likely have operating in overdrive behind the scenes that can overshadow your own truth. This episode will help you understand how you can relate to the different sides of yourself in healthier ways and reassign your identities to the roles and responsibilities best suited for them so you can function more efficiently with ease and joy.

Ep. 90 - You Aren't at the Whim of your Emotions but you are Responsible
Some people think that they have total control over everything around them while others think they have no control over anything at all. Based on where you believe you have control of your life dictates nearly every aspect of your life. So building the skill of emotional responsibility is invaluable toward every healing journey.
This week Amber dips into the archives to re-release her episode 29, Locus of Emotional Responsibility. After the foundation of the 4 part series on the cognitive behavior tool, The Model, understanding and implementing this concept is that much easier.
The Locus of Emotional Responsibility refers to the position in which you believe that you, as opposed to external forces, have control over the emotions you feel in your life.
Living towards the internal locus side of the emotional responsibility spectrum grants you a level of power and autonomy over what you feel about what happens in your life. This is a skill that can be learned and honed.
Amber teaches you all about the locus of control, the locus of emotional responsibility, how to recognize where you’re at on the spectrum, and how to use this knowledge to build a partnership with your emotions instead of being at the mercy of them.
Listen y’all, beliefs in having total control or total lack of control in life are unrealistic, but don't panic! In this episode, Amber will help us understand how to operate more towards the side of the internal locus of control where our power lies so we're operating more freely where we do have control.
If you want to take this work a step deeper with having guidance and assistance from a one-on-one coach, Amber is seeking her next best fit clients. This is your invitation to take a deep dive into uncovering your pleasure and how to create more of it. Book a consult today at https://www.ambertaylorcoaching.com/workwithme.

Ep. 82 - The Myth of the Missing Piece
This week Amber discusses the idea of the missing piece and how we have this idea that if this "one thing" would work out or be fixed then everything else will magically fall into place and we'd be happy. However, there is no quick fix to life. Even if that one thing is fixed, there will always be another because that's just how humans work. In this episode, Amber discusses what we must stop doing and start doing to get off the hamster wheel of the missing piece and get back to seeing ourselves as inherently whole and complete beings.

Ep. 75 - F*CK NO & F*CK YES
In this week's episode, Amber discusses the importance of knowing what you want and what you don't want, your f*ck no's and f*ck yeses. It can be easier to know what you don't want than what you do because in so many situations it feels safer to abstain than to partake. Amber talks about why that is and how we can create safety for ourselves so we have the confidence and the capacity to pursue what we really want, our f*ck yeses. She explains how to tap into and use your body's internal wisdom to stay in alignment with what's right for you. This process creates clarity so you can go from feeling like you're walking around aimlessly to feeling intentional and purposeful in whatever path you choose.

Ep. 74 - Disappointing Others
In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain and discussing what happened behind the scenes of an event I held. Spoiler alert, people were disappointed! This week I'm walking through what happened and the steps I took to try to remediate and conclude the situation. I'm talking boundaries and how I broke my own multiple times, nervous system activation, how I dealt with feeling like shit about the whole thing, and where my growth was.
In reality, we are all going to encounter situations where we disappoint others without even intending to, charge it to the game of life. However, when those times come, we don't have to feel bad about feeling bad or even give into because of how bad we feel.
At the same time, life is 50/50 and there's still always something to glean from these situations. This episode gives you the awareness of how to see that and the courage to be able to seek it.

Ep. 73 - Work Ethic vs. Worth Ethic
This episode is inspired by some common tropes I've seen come up during the spring time and one of my favorite affirmation songs by Toni Jones, Worth Ethic. It can be so easy to fall into the trap of hard work is rewarded while idleness is sinful, so we spend our time on the work that makes us money instead of the work that we're assigned simply for existing and the work that makes our heart happy. It's a double down on pain and sacrifice while ignoring creativity and joy. When this balance is off, we disconnect from our bodies and our prone to things like burnout and frequent, drastic bouts of anxiety, overwhelm, and even depression. That's where Worth Ethic comes in.
Worth Ethic is valuing yourself simply because you exist and knowing you don't have to earn your worthiness through what you do. This knowledge allows you to take care of yourself differently, listen to your body, create helpful systems and measures for your success, create, flow, enjoy, and just BE. It's not abandoning the actions you take and the work you put in, but the acknowledgement that there is more to the equation and more to you than just your output.

Ep. 69 - Romanticizing Eroticism with Hailey Thomas
This week I'm back with the OG homie g - Hailey Thomas, and we're talking how romance isn't just for the hopeless, but for the whole. After a quick conversation on the heels of watching an old Esther Perel webinar, Hailey and I decided to come to the podcast and hit record.
We're talking all about romanticizing your humanity and how the need to feel joy and satisfaction is required for a balanced, pleasurable life. This sense of aliveness is actually the protection against life's inevitable stressors and low points. Listen as we explore the ideas of eroticism, romance, adventure, pleasure, and more. We discuss how these concepts have shaped the lives we lead now and the practices we hold to sustain us even in the hard times.

Ep. 68 - The Cycle of Healing
We all experience that deja vu feeling in our healing journeys - the "haven't I learned this already!" when we just seem to keep having to exercise that same muscle group. And sometimes we even get onto ourselves about not doing it 'right' or not learning the universal lesson well enough the first time. But that's not how it works! We are sent different iterations of our lessons not as punishment but as the pathway to our purpose.
In this episode, I'm normalizing that you will repeat the work you do on your healing journey over and over again. It's all part of the healing cycle. I break down the 4 steps of it, how to identify which one you're in, and how you can leverage autonomy over your emotions, your nervous system, and the phases of the healing cycle.

Ep. 67 - The Hero's Journey with Carlos DelaPlaya
This week we have Carlos DelaPlaya, the Self Expression Coach with us and we're talking the hero's journey. How we must go through the pain, the doubt, the muck in order to have the audacity to become the hero's in our own story. As we are both big anime fans, we use the medium to relate these character stories to real life lessons.
In this episode we're talking about that voice in your head that doubts you and criticizes you and how it's actually there because it pushes you towards your courage and growth edge. We talk about the mystery and adventure of life and how we can actually be turned on by the inherent ambiguity and wrongness of life. We talk about how suppressing your aliveness and numbing out constantly is actually detrimental to your long term mind, body, and spiritual health and what you can do instead. This conversation is about finding pleasure within pain and using the circumstances we're given as stepping stones to the person we dream to be.
CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST, CARLOS DELAPLAYA - SELF EXPRESSION COACH
Carlos is an anime-loving life coach AKA prince of magnetism who helps mystics, outcasts, “weirdos,” the neurospicy, + outcasts take up space and step into their villain era. He ditched a life of filtered closeted pushover to step into a life of iconic mischief, mystery, and playful creativity and now helps others do the same.

Ep. 65 - What are you waiting for?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: what are you waiting for?
You have everything you need to go after what you want, and if you don't have it, you have the means to realize it or attain it. We confuse what we need with what we would like or what would be nice to have in our journey to getting what we want in life, but the foundational building bricks for all of it lie within you already. The most crucial being the belief in yourself. When you believe that your desires are inevitable outcomes, there's no reason to wait to pursue them.

That's a wrap for this series of Pleasure Starters, 30 episodes in 30 days. Thanks so much for joining me on this journey! Come back any day for any question to reignite some pleasure in your life. Let me know what you thought of this series!

Ep. 64 - How well do you trust yourself?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: how well do you trust yourself?
If you've ever uttered the words "I can't trust myself" or have questioned the trust you have for yourself, this episode is for you. Our inner knowing is our guide, it's how our ancestors have survived and made decisions for centuries. Only relatively recently have we prioritized an outside source over our internal truth, however my mission is to help you connect back to and be able to trust your inner knowing.
This level of trust is the foundation of accountability and actually realizing your desires and achieving your goals. This radical honesty is how you check your alignment on your own path. In this episode I talk about trusting ourselves, what stops us from doing so, how we can develop that deeper level of trust and understanding with ourselves, what it means when things go differently than we expected, and so much more. Buckle up friends and trust the ride.

Ep. 63 - Have you celebrated today?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: have you celebrated today?
Celebrations are key to integration. When you celebrate yourself and the world around you for the big and the small things, you create more and more to celebrate. It's the gift that keeps on giving! In this episode I go over what's a celebration, what's worthy of a celebration, how to celebrate, and why it's important. I also offer a challenge for you: write down 3 celebrations every day for a week and track how you feel by weeks end. The results may surprise you :)

Ep. 62 - What's the impact you want to leave?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: what's the impact you want to leave?
When we think about pleasure, it can be easy to get caught up in the here and now without really thinking about the long term. When we think about the impact we want to leave in all areas of our life, we start thinking bigger. We start thinking about what will bring us joy now and in the future. We get to reconnect to our why. Being clear on our why and the impact we want to leave helps us to continue to walk the path even when it inevitably gets hard and rocky.

Ep. 61 - Who do you want to be?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: who do you want to be?
This episode is all about connecting with the version of yourself you desire to become and embodying them now. You don't have to wait to reach the goal, get the partner, or until your bank account has the 'right' amount of money in it, you get to be that person now which ultimately aligns you with who you desire to be. I offer my insights, a few journal prompts, and what's required to quantum leap into the version of you that you want to be.

In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: When's the last time you've done something for yourself?
It's so easy to get caught up in the spin cycle of life, especially in a society hyper focused on productivity, success, and external validation. We can get so far away from ourself and our desires so I wanted to give you an opportunity to come back home to yourself simply to do something you want to do because you want to do it.
This episode is all about deconstructing societal standards and expectations to for our own standards and expectations and desires. Give yourself the opportunity to choose your happy and fight for your joy.

Ep. 59 - Do you have the desire to "fix" someone else?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: do you have the desire to "fix" someone else?
No matter how bad we want to, we can't control someone else, their behavior, or how they show up in the world. However, we can reflect on what they trigger in us so that we can use that understanding to take more accountability and responsibility in our life.
When we stop relying on others to behave a certain way so we can feel good, we reclaim our f*cks and remain unbothered by the things we can't control. Reclaiming this energy gives us the ability to create a foundation of peace and pleasure independent of everyone and everything else #unf*ckwithable

Ep. 58 - Are you avoiding your feelings?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: are you avoiding your feelings?
You probably are, as most of us were taught to "stop crying", "don't let them see you sweat", "put on a smile", etc. but most of us weren't taught to get familiar with our feelings and learn how to process them so we end up avoiding them. We buffer and numb out with other activities and feelings so we can escape the feeling we don't want instead of clearing space so we can seek and embody the feelings that we do want.
In this episode I give insight into how to tell if you are avoiding your feelings and some journal prompts so you can call yourself in, maintain a state of calm, connectivity, creativity, peace and pleasure, and feel how you want without anything weighing you down or holding you back.

Ep. 57 - What can you decide ahead of time?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: what can you decide ahead of time?
Decision making is powerful, almost magical. When you decide, you create clarity and direction for yourself and others, you reclaim the brain space from pondering, going back and forth on something, or just putting it off. Ultimately decision making is a way to reclaim your power in any situation. So in this episode we're taking it a step further by making decisions ahead of the time we need to implement them. Not only will this question facilitate higher productivity, efficiency, and peace, it also expands your capacity to experience joy.

In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you telling yourself no when you really wanna say yes?
I already know what you're thinking - "but you can't just say yes to everything you want". Not gonna argue with you, but today I'm breaking down the difference between instant and delayed gratification, why I think instant gratification gets a bad rap, and how you can give yourself what you need without immediately fulfilling the initial gratification. I also go over intuition and giving permission to say yes to yourself.
With this episode I hope you fine more balance and the audacity to say YES to yourself more.

Ep. 55 - What are you making your productivity mean about you?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: what are you making your productivity mean about you?
Capitalism has taught us the false narrative that our worth in this world is tied to what we put out and do in it. We then compound our suffering by playing into that narrative and believing we are less than if we don't produce more. In this episode, I ask you to question your beliefs around your worthiness, I invite you to believe in your own inherent worthiness, and offer a way you can detox from the drug of productivity so you can be sustained on acceptance and enoughness - the foundations of quantum leaps.

Ep. 54 - Where are you not acknowledging your choice?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you not acknowledging your choice?
When we believe we don't have a choice, we end up believing we don't have any power or control. Then we act like our back is against the wall and we make decisions from a place of survival and keeping our heads above water instead of from a place of thriving and chilling on a yacht. In other words, our subsequent actions and decisions are coming from what we think we have to do not what we want to do.
This question asks you to identify where you can reclaim the power you forgot you had. Even when you make the same decisions, you feel different about them because you made them from empowerment instead of disempowerment. This question requires you to take responsibility for your current circumstances and it shows you new and different ways of operating within them and moving outside of them. This question enables you to be the architect of your own life.

All sexual experiences are not created equal! However, we get to create the standards for the experiences we desire. In this episode, I highlight a few of my markers for high quality sex and how you can understand and elevate your sex life. Sex (partnered and unpartnered) has the capacity to be healing, liberating, magical, grounding, and so much more. Why choose basic when extraordinary can be your baseline?

I break down what having your own back even means and how it's crucial to prioritizing your pleasure and actually enjoying all the amazing things you create. I teach you that having your own back is a decision that you make, not a state that you're in. No matter what is going on or how you've been treating yourself up to this second, you can choose to have your own back now. So I want you to explore, how can you have your own back and incorporate these principles right now and in your day to day.

Ep. 51 - Where are you downplaying yourself?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you downplaying yourself?
Especially when we are unlearning, we can tend to overlook the areas we already are good at or like about ourselves and start to view them differently. For example, you take pride in your appearance but begin to second guess because you don't know if it's something you actually like or it's a result of patriarchal conditioning. You end up downplaying your skills and interests which does not serve you in your pursuit of prioritizing pleasure at all.
The truth is, we'll never be able to completely discern between our innate desires and desires that result from conditioning we've received. No matter how hard we work, we can't completely detach from the conditioning we've received. However, we get to choose what we believe now and what we make those beliefs mean.
This question is designed for you to look at the areas of your life where you've pulled back or don't take full ownership of where you're already amazing or are doing the things you really like. It highlights the areas where your brain believed it was a good idea to downplay and allows you to choose how you want to approach those areas on purpose. This question can transform how you relate to yourself and how you show up for yourself.

Ep. 50 - What would make it more fun?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: what would make it more fun?
We can get in the habit of believing that some things just aren't fun and that's the way it is. We stop trying to play, explore, and learn new ways to do the same things and learn new ways to relate to ourselves. However, as soon as you open yourself to experiencing more fun, you do. Apply this question to the things you don't like doing, the things that are tolerable, the things you already love to do, and see what happens.

In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask, well really answer - how to: for the recovering people pleasers.
Many of us are realizing what people pleasing is, how we've taken part in it, and how important reclaiming the authority of our pleasure is to our mental health. So I wanted to give you a 'what's next?' guide once you enter your villain era to empower you to keep going on this process.

Ep. 48 - Where are you doing where you could be being?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you doing where you could be being?
I'm sure you've heard it before, but we are human beings, not human doings. Our job here is to explore and experience, not to constantly do, pursue and achieve. There is a time and place for each, however, I think our society has stressed extra importance on doing and a negative connotation of being.

Ep. 47 - Why are you apologizing when you're not sorry?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: why are you apologizing when you're not sorry?
Especially for those socialized as women, and even more for women of color, we are taught to apologize for any and everything we do that doesn't meet the standard of societal expectations. Since these are subjective and ever evolving, we end up apologizing for taking up space, making noise, slightly inconveniencing anyone else - we end up apologizing for simply existing.
My mission is to help you get comfortable taking up all the space unapologetically. In this episode, I share a recent story of how I caught myself in this same cycle and what I did and said in the moment instead of apologize. This episode is to help you call attention to where you are apologizing unnecessarily and rewire your brain to take up space as you are instead of as who you think you need to be.
And it goes without saying but I'll say it anyway: still apologize when you want to and when you're actually sorry, just stop defaulting to your own wrongness when it's not even a part of it.

Ep. 46 - Where are you not taking responsibility for how dope you are?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you not taking responsibility for your own dopeness?
Fluke energy is not yours to claim. Your goals don't just happen, you don't just trip and fall into what you want, you create the opportunities, you manifest your desires, you put in the work to have and be all that you are right now. So own it! When you own your personal brand of dope magick, you become a more potent wielder of it. When you don't claim it, who do you attribute responsibility of it to?

Ep. 45 - Where are you putting the opinions of others ahead of your own?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you putting the opinions of others ahead of your own?
This episode is definitely not about ignoring any outside advice you receive. It's about questioning where you default to the opinions and expectations of others before consulting with your own. It's about daring to connect back to your intuition, authenticity, and desires for approval and support instead of external validation.
Neither is right or wrong, but one is made especially for you and the other isn't. It's like the difference between custom and generic. You don't have to struggle to make the generic fit your needs when the custom version already takes into account your unique wants and specifications. Where are you replacing your custom opinions with generic ones? Why?

Ep. 44 - Where can it be easier?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where can it be easier?
This question applies to your relationships, your business, your health, your commitment to exercise, your money mindset, your goals, literally everything! Don't get caught in the trap of following a path just because you think it ends up where you want it to. There are so many ways to get to the same result. Align with the ways that work with you, not against you. Sometimes it's best to push through, sometimes you can walk around. The hard way isn't more right or righteous, it's just one way. Where can you make something on your path easier?

Ep. 43 - What are you not forgiving yourself for?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: what are you not forgiving yourself for?
I find that most people view forgiveness as some noble act or that it requires you to be the bigger person, but really forgiveness is to stop feeling anger or resentment to someone or something. It's deciding not to let the emotions fester in you and instead acknowledge them and let them go. Forgiveness is always done for your benefit.
In this episode I ask you to look at your life and see what you aren't forgiving yourself for - where are you harboring anger and resentment to yourself? I'm inviting you to examine it, process it, and let that pain go. How much space and capacity to experience more will open up for you once you forgive yourself?

Ep. 42 - What are your simple pleasures?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: what are your simple pleasures?
So often we can overlook the little things that bring us joy. When we take them for granted, don't acknowledge them, or don't see their effect in our life, we can convince ourselves we don't have enough pleasure or are in lack. Then we begin the chase, constantly looking for more which leads us to never be satiated - aka tired of being tired, seeing how the things that used to do it for us just don't do it anymore, and an over focus on the negatives.
When you acknowledge your simple pleasures and actively work to include them in your day to day life, you create an abundance of joy and pleasure even when life is lifing. You set the foundation you can always come home to, draw from, and create more with. So what are your current simple pleasures, are you allowing them to change as you do, and how can you bring them to the forefront of your life?

Ep. 41 - How do I already have enough?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: How do I already have enough? It can also be asked as, how am I already enough?
This question transforms how you see yourself and your current circumstances. It helps you shift into recognizing how dope you already are. It forces you to look at your areas of abundance instead of your areas of lack, and when you truly see where you are abundant, you're able to create more abundance. In this episode I share a story time of how this question has already created a shift in self concept and increased income for one of my clients this year. What can asking this question for yourself do for you?

This question is great to develop awareness and presence. It invites you to come back home to yourself so you can check in, get a status report, and get supported in the ways that you need. Through being in the moment with yourself no matter what is going on, you are more primed to orient towards pleasure.

Ep. 39 - Do you know how to please yourself?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: do you know how to please yourself?
In this society, especially when socialized as a woman, we are taught to outsource our pleasure. We are taught that our joy is outside of us and other people and things have to provide it for us. However, we are our own best pleasure provider. No one can do it like we can.
To reclaim the power of your pleasure you must become an expert in pleasing yourself. That way others are an extension of your pleasure not the source of it. This dynamic puts you back in the power seat across all areas of your life. So, do you know how to please yourself? What's stopping you from figuring out how?

Ep. 38 - Where are you sacrificing when you could be compromising?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you sacrificing when you could be compromising?
I go over the definition of each and how our conditioning can play into us making unnecessary sacrifices that hurt us more in the long run. Use this question to help you identify where you are sacrificing across your life and business. To help you discern between a sacrifice and a compromise ask yourself where you are placing value and importance and do you like that placement and your reasons for it.

Ep. 37 - Where are you slashing your pleasure?
In this episode of Pleasure Starters, a podcast miniseries inviting you to tangibly create more pleasure in your life through pondering my questions, I ask: where are you slashing your pleasure? So often, we get caught up in the idea of overindulging that we preemptively limit the level of pleasure we experience and I want you to gain clarity around where you do this in your life and why.
Now, there is a difference between a buffer and a pleasure - that being doing the thing to escape something else (buffer) or doing the thing for the simple joy of it (pleasure). In this episode, I'm focused on the latter. Where are you slashing your pleasure and what's the downside of experiencing it fully?

EP. 35 - Lessons from a Week of Pleasures
Life is a lesson, we learn and continue to learn every day. Everything doesn’t have to be perfect in life for us to be happy and to appreciate ourselves and everything around us. There are valuable lessons and simple pleasures in our daily experiences.
Over the past 10 days, I have had the pleasure of spending quality time with an amazing group of women in my mastermind. These days were jam-packed with super fun events. As I reflect on each activity, I was able to pull some amazing life lessons that are so important to our growth and pleasure.
And so I want to share a couple of the experiences that I had, what I learned from these experiences, and what I want to offer you all to support you in prioritizing your own pleasure.
Let’s go!

EP. 34 - Pleasure as a Gateway to Intuition with Giulia Mazzola
Life contains many things, the good, the bad, the ugly, but also an element of magic, and this magic sometimes, if we are in tune enough to listen to it, helps to push us where we should be going.
Whether you call it a gut feeling, fate, intuition, or a message from beyond, if something excites you and you can’t stop thinking about it, listen to it – the universe, your intuition, is trying to send you a message. It may be a path worth going down, and prioritizing your pleasure can be a gateway to connecting to your intuition.
In this conversation, you will hear Amber being interviewed by her good friend, Giulia Mazzola. Giulia is a life coach helping women connect to their intuition, build self-trust and enchant their lives. Practical magic, if you will.
Listen in as they discuss how closely pleasure and intuition are correlated and how you can learn to prioritize your pleasure to listen and hone into your intuition in the most fun ways.

EP. 31 - How to Feel
No matter who you are, or where you are from, the experience you have in life is going to be 50/50 between good and bad. Throughout your life journey, you will meet the entire spectrum of human emotion. How you manage and process these feelings and emotions greatly impacts your quality of life. To help you navigate your emotions to best serve your overall quality of life, this episode is critical.
Specifically, Amber will be taking a deep dive into why we don't feel, why it's so taboo to talk about certain feelings, how to feel and what different emotions actually feel like in our body, and why it's important to allow ourselves to feel these things. She will also share some acumen in processing emotions, like feeling them, allowing them to be there, letting them move through your system, and decreasing their intensity. Essentially she is teaching you how to partner and learn from your emotions instead of being at the mercy of them.

EP. 29 - Locus of Emotional Responsibility
Some people think that they have total control over everything around them while others think they have no control over anything at all. Based on where you believe you have control of your life dictates nearly every aspect of your life. So building the skill of emotional responsibility is invaluable toward every healing journey.
The Locus of Emotional Responsibility refers to the position in which you believe that you, as opposed to external forces, have control over the emotions you feel in your life.
Living towards the internal locus side of the emotional responsibility spectrum grants you a level of power and autonomy over what you feel about what happens in your life. This is a skill that can be learned and honed.
This week, Amber teaches you all about the locus of control, the locus of emotional responsibility, how to recognize where you’re at on the spectrum, and how to use this knowledge to build a partnership with your emotions instead of being at the mercy of them.
Listen y’all, beliefs in having total control or total lack of control in life are unrealistic, but don't panic! In this episode, Amber will help us understand how to operate more towards the side of the internal locus of control where our power lies so we're operating more freely where we do have control.

EP. 28 - Post Traumatic Growth
As humans, we all have a spectrum of experiences that we would personally consider traumatic. These experiences can leave us feeling helpless, disconnected, and unable to fill a full range of emotions and experiences.
Following a trauma, there is a type of transformation that some people experience. This is known as post-traumatic growth. Post-traumatic growth refers to people who after experiencing trauma may remain emotionally affected, but their sense of self, their views on life, their priorities, their goals for the future, and their behaviors have all been reconfigured in positive ways, in light of their experiences.
Basically, post-traumatic growth is a secret weapon that we can use to actually learn and grow from our experiences without being completely bent to their will. Being able to manage the stress of trauma through pleasure actually allows us to experience growth and be able to see the positive side and get positive outcomes despite the adverse experiences.
Listen as Amber shares the three pillars of post-traumatic growth and how prioritizing your pleasure can cultivate post-traumatic growth to help you reverse the destructiveness of trauma and use it to your advantage.
If you're looking for ways in which you can find more pleasure, of course, I'm your girl! We can talk about how we can work together one on one, in a six months container, where we transform your entire life, we focus on your pleasure, how you can create more of it, where it's lacking, and why.

EP. 27 - Your Breakthrough is Coming
Often times when things get hard, when things aren’t working out, or we just feel like we can't keep going anymore, that's when we are right on the verge of our breakthrough, and that’s also when we usually give up.
As Amber will share with us in this episode, the urge to give up is a feeling caused by the thoughts that we have. It’s really just a mindset and we have the power to change it.
Yes, we will always face challenges but we can face challenges and go through them with more ease.
Listen in as Amber shares with us some tips and strategies that we can implement right away to motivate us to keep going toward our breakthrough.

EP. 26 - Social Media Validation
Social media can be a great way to keep in touch with people and share information. However, it can also be a source of fear and anxiety or excessive reassurance-seeking behaviors, and unhealthy attempts at getting validation from others. For our girl Amber, it was the latter.
Amber has always had a weird relationship with social media. For her, it was an anxiety-inducing experience based on fears. Fears that she didn't even realize she consciously had until she took a step back and examined her relationship with social media.
Those fears revolved around three main areas:
the fear of what other people would think of her
the fear that her words would be used against her
the fear that she wasn't good enough
She has since changed her relationship with social media but knows all too well how these fears can hold us back. And so on this episode, she will discuss social media, our relationship to it, how we can use it for validation, and her personal take on how to have a better relationship with our social media presence.
She also gives actionable advice on how to change your own relationship to social media. And the best part is that these tools are so much more far-reaching than social media. You can use them in so many different areas of your life. Tailor the content to your pleasure.
Listen, social media validation isn't the only place that you can get the “feel good” vibes. You can actually create it for yourself so you don’t have to rely on others to give it to you. The perfect place to start is her amazing FREE challenge called 14-Days to Self-Acceptance. Visit https://www.ambertaylorcoaching.com/14-days-to-self-acceptance to start your journey.

EP. 25 - Bursting Bubbles
This week Amber is talking about some limitations of our current reality that she has noticed a lot lately in her own coaching and in coaching with her clients and peers.
She is bringing this to light so that we can expand into the limitless options available to us and so that we can get to the next evolution of our highest selves for the betterment of ourselves.
And so she will be bursting our bubbles around the following limiting beliefs:
If something lasts forever, then that means it's successful
We're supposed to be happy or feel good 100% of the time
What we do or don’t do, makes us a good or bad person
Having a mental or physical illness or disability defines us
Money, Money, Money
The concept of time
What defines our worthiness
Press play to learn how these beliefs limit our realities and hold us back from experiencing a pleasureful life and what we can do about it.

This week Amber connects with a special guest, Natasha Tekeste. Natasha is an Advanced Certified Life and Money Mindset Coach for women and people socialized as women who want to earn more money. She works with women who want to shift their beliefs around money and wealth so they can leave the drama behind and focus on actually doing the work that they love.

Why earning more money is NOT the way that we can feel emotionally safe and secure
Common connotations that are parallels between pleasure and money

Ep. 22 - Stop Restricting Your Pleasure
In this week’s podcast Amber gives it to you straight, no chaser. Stop restricting your pleasure, period. She’s highlights examples of how people can be restricting their own pleasure, scheduling it, or doing things to take it from themselves.
Amber calls on you to get out of the belief that pleasure is a limited resource. You are in charge of your pleasure, how much you get of it and when you give it to yourself. It can never run out because you get to create it.
It’s time to soak in all things that bring you pleasure for a better quality of life. How? First start by listening to your gut and following your intuition, the rest will follow.

Ep. 21.5 - Chips Ain't Gonna Help You Bruh: Serena Hicks Bonus
In this week's episode, Amber's back again with Serena Hicks for a bonus episode!
Amber recounts a rich experience she shared in Serena's Big Happy Money Mastermind about a man asking for a bag of chips in the grocery store.
However, he laid out A LOT more issues than a bag of chips could possibly fix. To change your life you have to be willing to change your thoughts and actions, rather than wait for the perfect, no-effort solution to come out the sky.

Ep. 21 - Creating 8 Clients in 4 Weeks: Interview with Serena Hicks
In this episode, Amber takes the hot seat and is interviewed by Serena Hicks of Big Happy Money. They discuss how she was able to create 5 clients in a 3 week period after consistent $0 months. Learn what changed the game for Amber, what led to her transformations, and how she used pleasure to create her results.
Over the course of the last year Amber got a divorce, moved in with her parents, moved into a luxury apartment, and fully committed to growing her business (she says, “I stopped treating my business like a booty call”) – and she’s been practicing radical self belief in the area of creating, spending, receiving, and embracing BIG Happy Money.
In this call she shares with Serena the thoughts and practices that took her from a $0 income month to booking five clients in just three weeks. Thoughts like, “It’s my time. Let’s go.” and practices like “passive thought work” (you’ll love it if you share her ADHD brain).
Get your notebooks, y’all, because this is magic.

Ep. 20 - Disassociating from your Emotions
In this week’s episode, Amber dives further into the concepts from last week and processing emotions with another tool, disassociating from the emotion.
Not in the sense you may think, we still want to feel the emotion, but we don’t want to identify with it in the sense that it is who we are instead of what we are currently feeling. Understanding this, you will be able to process and allow emotions instead of resisting, reacting, or avoiding them.
Amber reminds us that it is okay to feel your emotions, stop trying to fix it, instead, stop, listen and learn from the way you are feeling. They are there to give us valuable information. We just have to understand their communication style to hear it.
This episode gives you actionable information into how to truly process your emotions so you can move through and out of them.
When you’re ready to dive deeper into processing your emotions, accepting your feelings for what they truly are, so you can live the life of your dreams infused with pleasure, book a consult call with Amber today!

Ep. 19 - Hopelessness
In this week’s episode, Amber takes time to recognize the recent tragedies in the United States around gun violence. She breaks down her own emotions and how she processes them. She takes us through step-by-step process of identifying, accepting, and releasing all of the feelings that come up for her both physically and mentally.
Amber encourages you to take time to take care of yourself in these moments, in order to move forward. Although you may feel hopeless, it’s still necessary to prioritize things that bring you pleasure.
She reminds us that life is 50/50 and we are designed to experience the entire emotional spectrum. When we find ourselves feeling beat down and hopeless and frustrated, it is that much more important to seek joy. When we seek it, we can continue to find and create more of it. This is how we heal.

Ep. 18 - Opinions of Others
This week, Amber talks about the opinions of others and the weight of those opinions. It's a topic we all experience in one way or another, but Amber reminds us that other people’s opinions ain't got shit to do with you!
She calls on you to ask yourself what you are making others thoughts of you mean? At the end of the day, we truly don’t know what anybody else is thinking about us, so ultimately it’s our own self judgment and our own self criticism on replay in our heads.
Amber encourages you to choose the story. Chose the one that makes you feel good, choose the story that you really want for yourself! So next time you find yourself worrying about what anybody else thinks of you, ask yourself, what am I making this mean? Ask yourself why it matters and ask yourself how you want to feel. What are you stopping yourself from feeling by believing this story, then pick up the pen and change the narrative, simply because you have that power.

Ep. 16 - The Armor of Excellence with Hailey Thomas
In this episode Amber has a conversation with a very special guest, Hailey Thomas*, and they tackle the topic “The Armor of Excellence.”
The Armor of Excellence describes the protective shield that we create for ourselves shrouded in excellence, and how the constant pursuit of excellence becomes perfectionism and how that can become detrimental.
This armor works both ways; It protects you, but it's also a lot to carry and stops you from moving as quickly and as freely as you could. Amber and Hailey break down the ways you can remove this armor by creating safety in other ways and ultimately making life better and easier for you. And OF COURSE Amber discusses how prioritizing and pursuing your own pleasure and play is KEY to learning, growing, healing and creating even more excellence with ease.
They remind us that performing to excellence is great and helps you gain valuable skills, but we don’t always need to wear the armor as every situation in life is not a battle, and will ultimately lead to a constant state of felling unsafe.
In this episode, they teach you how to create excellence and safety. An instant classic!
