Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - I CAN’T TELL THEM THAT…Express the Truth!!!

Loved being at Penny Slingers land, such a sacred redwood grove! To me, nothing is worse than being fake, or withholding, or twisting yourself into a pretzel to be around someone. It’s curious how I used to give away my power and not speak my truth, for if I did I would get yelled at. I learned to mince my words or be a top notch people pleaser to feel safe.


Yet the sad thing was, in choosing to NOT be me, I kept attracting people that liked NOT me and had to keep NOT expressing my truth to not be abused or made wrong.


The bold awareness for me was to recognize I was doing this, be kind to myself that it’s all I learned to survive growing up, that I could make a new choice and that I had the courage to let go of people who truly didn’t honor me, and go find some that did.


Now as I made these changes over time, I ended marriages, quit jobs, moved around the world… there were times of aloneness… yet the greatest GIFT in that was that I found I wasn’t lonely in my aloneness. I WAS THERE with ME. GOD was there with ME. NATURE was there. ONENESS was there.


I began to see these ‘mean’ people as my springboards from which to soar into my self esteem and true connection with the ALL. If it weren’t for them dishonoring me, I would never have chosen to honor me and dive into the limitless honor and celebration of me that the Universe holds for me!


It turns out no one ever had power over me at all! I had given it away and I could choose again and take it back and swim moment to moment through the billions of molecules of existence that had my back and were showering me with gratitude… I just had to shift my point of view.


Now it doesn’t happen all at once. And it’s simple but not easy. Yet begin by noticing when you don’t speak your truth. Ask yourself if the person you’re with has the capacity to hear you or not. If not, let it go, you’re asking for the impossible and setting yourself up to be abused. Let go. Then ask, what would it take for ME to hear me in this moment? to honor me in this moment? to respect and have gratitude for me in this moment? Then ask What would it take for me to create a job/relationship/environment/world where I am heard, honored and celebrated for being me? And take one step at a time. Stop choosing to be abused. Start choosing to honor you as you would the most precious animal, flower or sunrise…


And if you require someone to hold space as you make these triumphant precious steps, it would be my pleasure… for as the mighty redwoods stand in groves… I am here for you to witness your glory. Yum. Great love, Allana xoox

  Seeing Only Red in a Sea of Blue   In my talks, I often play this game with the audience. I ask them to look around the room and count how many red shirts there are. After half-a-minute, I tell them to close their eyes. I ask them, “Are you ready with your answer?” They all reply with a resounding yes. Then I ask them, “Okay. How many blue shirts did you see?” They burst out laughing. And they try to guess. But no one gets the right answer. Why? Because they weren’t focused on the blue shirts but on the red. The point of this little exercise is to show them that every reality, every situation, every circumstance always has many sides. But we only see one side! Always.   You’re Not a Grasshopper   Let me tell you one of my all-time favorite stories in the Bible. The Israelites who escaped Egypt (think “Ten Commandments” with Charlton Heston) were now at the edge of the Promised Land. Not knowing what it was like, they sent 12 spies to scout the land i...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - My boyfriend’s messaging strange women

Question: Do you have any idea why a man would start instant messaging strange woman after being in a five year relationship. Said he was “stupid” and wasn’t physical with anybody. I guess you can say I have trust issues. Answers: Ouch! I am so sorry. Do I have any idea why? Here is what I have learned, first off I am really sorry because that really hurts. If you have trust issues especially, that would hurt and sting even more. So first something about trust and then something about men. Trust: When we trust, it’s not that we trust someone to be perfect. That sets us up for failure because no one is perfect and you can’t control anybody. That is insanity if we try to control another and put all of our power – making sure they be a certain way to so that we are safe. Instead, find that safety and trust inside you. That safety being that capacity to discern and know that come what may, you’ve got your own back – you can take care of yourself. It takes a lot of pressure off of other...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - To MILF or not to MILF this Mothers Day

I don’t know if you have those to-do piles that just sit there, you WANT to get to them, you MEAN to get to them, and you OUGHT to get to them… while this video was in one of those piles. It took less than 10 minutes to do. Why did I put it off? Well if you’re like me, we only procrastinate with things we either don’t really want to do, or doing them will make us have to face something we’re not ready to face, internally or externally. We’re literally choosing not to face it and calling it procrastination. So I guess I didn’t want to face/own being a MILF. Really owning my badass queen Harley boots, pole dancing, MILF essence. I don’t even know what I’ve really made it all mean… just that I’m WAY more potent than I realize and my erotic creature is WAY overdue coming out to play, to create adventures, to embrace life and to shine!! So you know I call my women’s membership Redefining Sexuality , because I sure don’t care for the definition of sex or sexy… it’s void of honor, care and ...
