MY BACKGROUND: (the deep education)

Hello Love,

Thanks for reading! This is me in a little nutshell. In this work, we aren’t afraid of intimacy. Especially the intimacy with ourselves. So heres my nod to sharing my intimacy with you.

I pride myself on being a sexual liberator! Not only in my own life, but that is my work. I want you to embrace every turn on, every fantasy, every desire! Most importantly, Im here to help you embrace those shadows that hold you back from feeling solid and centered in your life. If you feel stuck or have guilt and shame surrounding a part of your sex, Id love to help you discover how to love and accept these parts of you!

Here’s a little about my background and what brought me into the realm of Tantra.

First, I find it ironic that my name at birth even reflects my soul purpose. Casaundra meaning “mankind’s warrior, shining or excelling mankind.” Hope meaning “desire for fulfillment.” That is my first and middle name given to me by my parents. Pretty cool!

Anyway… 😎 When I began my healing journey in 2014, I felt like I was swimming the ocean with no land in site. I had no idea what direction to turn.

Early on, my life took a deep downward spiral. Growing up in the indoctrination of a Christian cult, it left me powerless in the world, as well as raped and molested by the time I was 13. I met the father of my 3 daughters at age 14, and we married only two years later. Then after years of toxicity and abuse I left him when I was 20 years old.

I was left with CPTSD from my early sexual abuse. Adding to it was a painful separation as well as multiple traumatic events within 1 year after the divorce.

As I fought to survive and care for two toddlers and a baby, I learned I could provide for my children working in the adult industry. Having no idea what I was doing, I launched my career as an exotic dancer! I loved the sensuality I got to express on a daily basis. There was a feeling of exhilaration and exhibitionism that lifted my soul. I felt safe to express myself when I was on stage. I found a way to provide a nice life for my kids while discovering this new side of me.

Within 2 years, the shame of that work caught up with me and I felt the desire to “normalize” my life. I went into corporate america, but my untreated CPTSD coupled with destructive relationships and 3 children to raise on my own, slowly drove me into deep alcoholism. I was angry, manipulative and a complete disaster in my relationships. A toxically dominant controller who was completely out of control.

I was deep in my toxic masculine and toxic feminine. My alcoholism had me drowning the pain of trauma with 3 bottles of vodka every week. Just for me.

Contemplating the end of my life in 2014, I knew it was fight or die.

With the help of a Devine power I found sobriety on July 17th 2014. Through strong dedication and the encouraging love of my children, I climbed the mountain of healing.

I spent 2 years in intense immersive healing therapies to work on the causes of my alcoholism. Codependency, fear of abandonment, self esteem and self worth issues, there was a lot to unpack in those therapy sessions. Everytime I did I felt freer and lighter than before. Im still a work in progress and hopefully will be for a long time. Life isn’t about that end result of the work, life is about the process.

After some time, I felt the fire of my sensual expression again and started teaching sensual dance classes to women.
I came alive! I felt a calling in my soul to help others learn how to become their own healer, just as I did. When I stepped into my first Tantra workshop I felt I had arrived home. I had found my soul family!

Tantra showed me how to bring my body, mind and soul into complete connection, including my sexuality. No other therapies provided such a sacred union of sex and spirit. I had shamed my sexuality my entire life, but suddenly I was taught how to release that shame and allow my deepest desires to be honored and loved.

I attended my first Tantra Practitioner Training with Lourdes Starshower in 2018. The teachings resonated with my soul, as if awakening knowledge that had been there all along.
I soon worked with my first client, and have enjoyed a heart centered practice as well as furthering my training ever since that day.

I still remain a student of Tantra, humbly showing you the way I came. As I go further, I can take you further. But don’t be afraid to start at square one. I know what that feels like and I will meet your energy where you are, lovingly guiding you further on your path.

If you are longing to deeply activate your sexual passion and learn to let go of any guilt, shame or fear holding you back, I would be honored to guide you.

Blessings, Casaundra Hope
