[@StephanieLafazanos]

Thank-you for sharing YOUR power, creativity and juiciness with us! It is truly time for this message to be heard by all women.

[@susanfarling8306]

Fabulous presentation Angela. You are radiant, magnetic and dynamic as you walk your talk. Very inspiring.

[@gracegerry436]

Wow Angela, what a powerful and potent presentation. I loved how present, relaxed, focused and passionate you were as you spoke, and sharing your story allowed us to reveal our own story to ourselves.

[@sallyforth9323]

I Love this woman! Thank you, Angela Thurston. 🙏🏼❤️💫

[@markscarborough7580]

Very insightful - “less painful to hate than love”

[@50clarity]

Great talk with a lot of intensity, woman! I recognise your story also as a man! Thank you.

[@LiquidBodyArts]

Of course, being an explorer myself, I am particularly happy to see audience interaction. You rock, Angela!

[@DariaBunting]

Well done!!! You did this so well, calm, relaxed and focused. Way to go!

[@INFOMOVES-ud2cc]

Hii

[@TarahFergusonHome]

Agreed:)Time to be empowered by our sexuality as women - no ashamed!

[@theotherway1639]

Good vid. The book "30 Days to Overcome Shame" by Harper Daniels, was also a big help.

[@LadyD.1999]

Im watcing this while crying..i am feeling ashamed and guilty,thank you for that speech.

[@RGold92]

Exceptional Angela! You are poised and elegant! Thanks for diving deeper into the feminine power source.

[@GrahamMilkdrop]

I have only one complaint about the content of this talk... It came right at the end so I feel that I can't just let it go without passing comment. 15:23 "Our powers are not the same as our glorious male counterparts... Our powers are in our intuitions, our feelings and our sensuality...". My experience has been that some women are inclined to cite this as being the case even without developing these skills and senses or having any genuine experience of them. The only supporting evidence they can offer is that it is widely accepted as truth culturally and that they know they will be supported by other women in making these claims, (and asserting that they are the exclusive domain of women..). As a man who has built upon a naturally occurring awareness of these aspects of my being, it is incredibly frustrating being talked down to and dismissed as though I have no capacity to even comprehend such things or to have my masculinity called into question, specifically by women who are more or less entirely cut off from their bodies, are perpetually confused about their own motives, in denial about their own needs, and often have never seriously enquired within about anything and certainly do not wish to take ownership of what they do... "Following my heart..." seems to be mostly used as a get-out-of-jail-card, a socially acceptable phrase to invoke infallibility and the right to act without reproach or contradiction, claiming that things are, "meant to be..." or not based on nothing but your decision to believe it, or that they do or don't, "feel it" in their heart... when the plain truth is more likely to be of a whimsical nature or perhaps even more of a self destructive thing that's externalising as compulsion and has no foundation in reasoning or connection to any wisdom divine or human.... simply doing what they do and then following it all up with various justifications, (again, socially acceptable stock phrases designed to facilitate plausible deniability of responsibility rather than discovering the truth of what their motive might be...). along with a passive-aggressive reaction to any suggestion to review what they do or investigate as if to question them is a personal attack upon their character and not a chance to discover any greater truth...observing cause and effect and making progress or seeing something through to completion etc....

[@AG-ej7wm]

Well said.

[@GrahamMilkdrop]

@@AG-ej7wm Thank you!

[@ministerstayfly9213]

Moral of the story woman aren't held accountable for any of their bs actions. Men use logic and are held accountable. Woman make decisions on how they feel at that moment which is usually causes them them more hurt and damage. all while blaming everybody for their bad decisions.

[@MaddyTwoShoes]

Loved it!! So much!

[@axellesaupek9921]

Wow!!!!! Love this talk

[@carlarieger]

Poignant, funny, captivating! You rock!!

[@drivecx]

[@Innerconnectedfamily]

Well done Angela, well done. :)

[@nikusita]

I loved that bean jar theory xD

[@ministerstayfly9213]

That was the only truth in the video.

[@hermajesticloupe7058]

SO brilliant

[@sofiaronsson7707]

Thank you!

[@cindigirouard9620]

I love this....thank you for sharing.

[@alexhtel]

Great opening but you lost me with the meditation thing.

[@ministerstayfly9213]

Woman aren't turned on once a man tries to be as emotional as she is. Emotions aren't the definition of Logic.

[@surajgowardipe9978]

that is not hmm that is Om

[@SoJustCool]

what if your boyfriend of 4 years dies untimely....?

[@rutee4614]

I shut down when you drank that water.

[@SC-vb2ui]

What a Delicious 😋 Teacher. Knowledge is a Freedom 🙏🏼☮️🧡🕉

[@markscarborough7580]

My beans are petrifying!

[@crispinswainstonharrison9042]

Not sure about this. I think there are better solutions. This seems to be a convenient angle to justify her past.

[@nammyohorengekyoooooo]

👏👏👏♥️

[@DD-dt4vt]

Si ok

[@lukesuda2390]

The bean jar not emptying I've observed often. This clip doesn't explain why desire leaves after marriage, when it existed prior to it. Meanwhile Beyoncé sings "put a ring on it"

[@justincoats7236]

Luke Suda. Great question. The loss of her desire has been the biggest problem for me in my marriage. I make great money, big house, nice cars, a boat, vacations, she doesn't work, great kids, both of us fit and healthy, but sex is a problem. I'm just frustrated. What can I do to get my wife to quit rejecting me?

Try watching and doing this Talk together, otherwise look for other resources.

[@rutee4614]

@@justincoats7236 it's not you its her. Keep taking it personally, you'll push her away.

[@the_famous_reply_guy]

@@justincoats7236 never reward bad behaviour, take other women on vacation and dates, give your attention to new women.

[@justincoats7236]

@HyperColours ha, ha, you crack me up. It's got a bit better. I just keep working at it. I still love her, and I know how much that would mess up my daughters. I'll keep trying

[@kirkshairpiece6741]

So what about men?

[@tommac21]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kaihanstein52]

She does not say ANYTHING. Nothing specific. Just feelings in her. Pathetic everyone who likes this talk.

[@brunandre]

this was a trap.

[@thunderousapplause]

This is a sermon without any steps to fix anything. It’s meaningless.

[@SarahDale111]

I guess it's doom and gloom for those of us who identify as asexual. 😕

[@CapnCatbeard]

Also nonbinary.

[@zakaurrehman4215]

i am also asexual. i always wonder do people date asexuals?

[@Lucaschimenco]

So boring... The world as it were a church

[@georgeschlaline6057]

Another sinful Ted talk. You're forgetting the religious aspect
