Meet liberation coach for women: Emerant

Some people arrive at sensual work through curiosity. Others arrive through rupture, searching for a way back to themselves.

For Emerant, the path has been one of deep questioning and lived experience. Now working as a liberation guide and somatic practitioner, her work intertwines psychology, embodiment and earth based spirituality.

In this conversation, Emerant speaks candidly about her journey and how it has informed the way she guides women back into relationship with themselves, their bodies and the living world around them.

How would you describe yourself in 3 words?

“Ray of Sunshine”

Tell us more about yourself and what you do

I guess the avatar that I’ve been given is that of a 5’10 blonde, 33 year old whip smart Liberation Guide. My ancestors are Celtic, Magyar and Coptic Christians from Armenia; I speak 4 languages: English, French, Spanish and Italian.

I’m currently living, laughing, and loving on the traditional unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations, but I am a proud Montrealer.

I’m here to wake people the hell up to the illusion that they are not separate and guide people back to the truth of who they actually are beyond conditioning, to stand with all they are and meet life directly.

But none of that actually answers the question of who I am.

I am an emanation of love (and so are you!). I am another you. I am that.

I have an unquenchable thirst to understand and come into direct contact with the soul of the world, energy, the tao, the Holy Spirit and to learn the ways I can weave with her and create a life of love.

When something touches my heart and connects me back to the heart of love and truth, I have a smile that lights up the world. I frequent children’s bookstores and offer to read them stories when their parents are too exhausted or not paying attention to them.

I am completely nuts and I never try to be anyone but me.

I am an exotic dancer, and I absolutely love the transient sense of anonymity that allows clients the raw experience to let their guard down and be seen in their desire without judgement.

I go wild camping one week every month, and I also travel around in my 1979 Yellow Boler trailer.

I strive to tell the truth and see beyond illusions. I tell others things straight because I can cut to the heart of most BS, even when others can’t see it themselves. This can be polarising and really jarring, but it’s ultimately a gift.

I love to laugh at myself and try not to take my ego too seriously, but I also love being in my human body and feeling everything because I know that is the truest way to be connected to life.

I offer my moon blood to the land and practice yoga twice a week in a dark, heated, womb like transformational space.

Through my work I guide people back into a profound relationship with themselves, with their life force and with the truth that they were never separate from love in the first place. I awaken people to their karmic patterning and help people break free from suffering.

What services do you provide on Sensuali?

Coaching and 1:1 services.

What turns you on?

Truth: the willingness to talk things out and be vulnerable, steadiness, strong hands, communication, massages.

What was your journey into this world?

I think a better question would be how did I come to be.

From as early as I can remember, I felt like an outsider.

I was the only child of a single mother who loved me deeply but struggled with her own demons, and I grew up feeling like my emotions were inconvenient and my sensitivity was too much for the world around me.

I was intuitive, perceptive, gifted and an independent thinker from a young age, but my immense sensitivity also created a deep question inside of me: who do I have to be to be loved?

So I adapted. I became a high achiever.

I worked multiple jobs while putting myself through school and eventually graduated from an elite university with a business degree. From the outside, my life looked impressive and successful. But internally, I was anxious, performing and quietly convinced that love was something I had to earn.

I spent 15 years in spiritual spaces trying to “fix” myself. I got certified in 10 different modalities. But everything changed during my Saturn return. I fell into a relationship that appeared like a dream: intense physical chemistry, deep karmic connection, meeting in the most cosmic and romantic fairy tale way possible, in the desert on a spiritual pilgrimage. It ultimately became a narcissistic abusive dynamic that crashed and burned and forced me to confront the wounds I had spent my life avoiding and running from.

That rupture became the turning point of my life.

I went back to school to study social work because I needed to understand the psychological and cultural forces that shape human suffering. But alongside that, I had a deep knowing that I needed to reconnect with the most primal nature of who I am, so I became an exotic dancer. It became an unexpected initiation into the shadows and a deep study of energetics, my own and society’s.

In that space I confronted so much of my own internalised shame and saw how power, desire, vulnerability, money and the human need for connection all interact. It taught me about boundaries, self worth, erotic power and the subtle energetic language that governs how we move through the world.

Through years of somatic work, shadow integration, spiritual practice and deep inner inquiry, challenging my beliefs about myself, something profound shifted one night while in a moment of profound supplication to the land, pleading, “Why me?”

I discovered that the core wound I had been living with was the illusion of separation from love itself. No relationship was going to save me, because I had no right relationship with life, spirit and the land herself.

This is the wound most people run from because most folks have no idea how to centre that as the only thing that actually matters. It is the field that holds us and how we relate to her, that is our power cord. Our relationship to the mother, to the Holy Spirit and our beliefs around that relationship.

My journey became one of embodied integration: learning how to meet grief, shame, longing and desire without self abandonment.

Today, my work is devoted to guiding women back to that same remembering, helping them reconnect to their embodied truth, reclaim the parts of themselves that were exiled by shame or conditioning and live from the deep emanation of who they truly are.

Because I know what it means to feel separate from life and I know the path back to belonging.

What do the first 60 minutes of your day look like?

I light a candle and pray for about 15 minutes, read my book of devotionals and do a stretch. Then I make myself breakfast and make a filthy little chai latte.

Why do you do what you do?

At the root of this work is a deep devotion to liberation and sovereign freedom.

To enliven others to embrace this gift of life and to be with her fully.

Liberation from the illusion that we are separate from love, from the divine and from the deeper intelligence that moves through life itself, and to reconnect people back to that in a felt way so you can move with confidence.

Many of us have been conditioned by stories telling us we are not enough, that love must be earned, that safety comes from controlling ourselves and that we must abide by inherited stories and the false beliefs our ego has created from our experiences that keep us small and looping in fear.

Over time those stories disconnect us from our own nature, our bodies and the living presence of something sacred moving through us.

My work is about reconciliation on the level of the soul, returning to the truth beneath those narratives and moving through life with a sense of deep connection to our truth, our essence and to meet life with confidence.

I come from a lineage of brilliant, powerful women who were deeply connected, yet became separated from themselves through trauma, addiction and the weight of cultural conditioning. Witnessing that pattern shaped me and I knew I had to be the person to break that.

I believe we are not separate from God, from love or from the intelligence of life itself. But that knowing cannot live only as an idea. It has to be embodied and integrated in how we live, feel and relate to the world.

Through somatic work, spiritual inquiry, energetic practices and deep psychological integration which weaves our consciousness with the earth, I guide women back to their own inner authority.

My work exists to help people remember that and to walk with them as they reclaim the freedom that has always been their birthright.

What is an unexpected pleasure you discovered in your work?

A sense of non dual consciousness, a deep and profound connection with the current of life around me and a sort of detachment from outcome.

What should more people know about your work?

We’ve lost our connection to the mystical undercurrent of life, and in my work we explore shifting our worldview and deep seated beliefs to open up to a more holistic relationship of being in the world through earth based practices and consciousness expanding modalities.

This work is for the shifting of paradigms and knowing that nothing outside of ourselves will shift until we can reconcile and truly feel resourced to see ourselves clearly and meet the energy that is manifesting all over our lives.

This work is more like karmic clearing and being with life so that our consciousness can rise and we can finally awaken to the life that is all around us.

What’s your superpower?

Well, as a 29 degree Pisces Sun in the 9th House.

Claircognizance. Hard to describe but I just be knowin’.

We love vices. What’s yours?

Sugar. I am absolutely addicted to it.

Who are your sensual inspirations?

Madeline Horne, a fellow exotic dancer who I think is just an embodiment of sex priestess energy.
