Sometimes holiness looks less like calm and more like fire. Magdalene shows that the sacred doesn’t hide from anger—it transforms it into truth.

We are the dirt of the earth given breath, given life

A Christopagan Manifesto, Part 2

A celebration of and engagement with the work of Heather Walton by colleagues, students and friends in many disciplines.

Reclaiming the Body, Pleasure, and Power For more than two decades, Xanet lived what appeared to be the perfect life, a thriving career, a lasting marriage, two grown children, yet her spirit and body were numb. For 26 years, she had shut down her voice, her pleasure, and her sense of self.  What began as silence became a story of awakening. From childhood shame to medical gaslighting, from invasive procedures to emotional abandonment, she learned to disconnect from her own body just to survive. But through somatic therapy and embodied healing, she rediscovered her voice, her pleasure, and her power. In this deeply honest episode, she opens up about what it means to live an orgasmic life, to come home to your body, reclaim your worth, and embrace divine joy without shame or fear. This conversation invites every listener to remember: You are not broken. You were conditioned to disconnect. And healing begins the moment you choose to return to yourself.
