The Scrumptious Woman

I'd love to hear from you drop me a text!

Welcome, my loves, to The Scrumptious Woman Podcast! I’m Juliette Karaman, and I’m so delighted you’re here. Whether you’re a regular listener or joining us for the first time, you’re in for a truly scrumptious conversation. Each week, we dive into topics that nourish your body, mind, and soul, helping you embrace pleasure and presence in every aspect of your life.

Episode Summary
In this episode, I’m joined by the radiant Genevieve Pleasure, a beautiful mama-to-be once again, as we explore the deep connection between pleasure, rest, and feeling safe in our bodies. We chat about the importance of slowing down, tuning into your body’s needs, and allowing pleasure to unfold naturally—without the pressure of performance. Genevieve shares her own journey of moving away from a high-achiever mindset and embracing the power of rest as an essential part of self-pleasure. We discuss how pleasure can be found in the simplest of moments and why creating safety within ourselves is the key to experiencing deeper connection and intimacy.

Key Takeaways

• Pleasure begins with safety—when you feel secure in your body, everything shifts.
• Rest is an act of self-love and one of the most powerful forms of pleasure.
• Slow down and allow pleasure to emerge naturally, rather than forcing it.
• Everyday moments, from sipping coffee to taking a breath, can be infused with pleasure.
• True intimacy comes from connection, not performance.
