If so, you’ve been guided to the right place.
You have the opportunity to join an intimate circle of Shakti Initiates who are working closely with Lisa Schrader — one of the most respected teachers on sacred sexuality of our day. And she is eager to help you discover the depths and miracles of your inner beauty in ways that will surprise, delight and amaze you.
Nine months is the time it takes to carry a baby to term. It can also be the time it takes to birth a new YOU — one that is blessed to embody the divine current of Shakti energy, so that it transforms you, your beloveds and the world as a whole.
You have already begun the delicious process of opening up to the power and potential of your passionate life force — awakening the Divine Feminine from her slumber and animating your life with more succulent, expansive and potent energies.
It’s now time to go to the next level. One of glowing radiance. Of power. Delight. Joy. Healing. Abundance. Awakening.
The gateway is your Shakti.
As a woman, this Shakti force that moves through your body is your birthright. However, you were probably never taught how to open to the fullness of your power and experience the surrender and erotic delight that comes when your body becomes a living, breathing temple — and your life becomes a way to gift the world with love.
It takes a trusted guide to enter these realms and become initiated into the depths of the mysteries that lie within. Lisa Schrader is that powerful, wise and deeply honoring mentor who will help you discover these feminine mysteries through the sacred portals of your womb, heart, soul and Yoni. She is here to initiate you into a deeper, wiser, more whole YOU.
You see, every woman is an emissary of the Divine and a creatrix of new life. Several millennia of masculine domination is finally shifting, but so much damage has been done to the raw, untamed, beautiful depths within us — which are key to our divine expression.
Dear sisters, it’s finally time to SHINE with all of our magnificence. A new era is here, one in which the feminine is taking her rightful place in our lives and the world. It is time to summon our Shakti, and channel it into a new kind of empowered femininity — as important to an executive in the boardroom as it is to a lover in the bedroom.
However, to embody this new, integrated feminine presence, we must be willing to go into the dark corners of shame, fear and self-judgment that often constellate around our sensual selves. To blossom, we need to explore the places where we abandon ourselves, where we fail to give ourselves permission to be all of who we are. We need to welcome the wisdom from our wounds, and also go beyond, to use them as alchemical fuel for the potential waiting to be born.
To do this work of Shakti activation at the deepest level requires skilled, sensitive support and a relaxed expanse of time. And that is what we will create, together, during the nine months of birthing a fuller, more Shaktified, and freer Self — one that KNOWS what real sisterhood looks like, FEELS exquisite pleasure in her body, ATTRACTS abundance and opportunity, and DELIGHTS in the dance of life and love.
A Shakti Initiate is a woman who knows how to step into her feminine power in a way that is authentic, non-manipulative and clear. She knows how to channel her life force in the service of her soul’s work. She knows the pleasure of living in sensual, orgasmic aliveness as her birthright — and she gives this gift of radiance to the world. She knows how to amaze her lover, enjoy herself, stand in her truth, and receive divine nourishment in her very cells.
Does that image speak to you?
If you KNOW you are here to shine with inner radiance, open to your full depths, and awaken in an embodied way, this is the path for you.
If you say "YES" to this Shakti Mentorship Program, you will:
As we’ll be exploring some of the most intimate areas of our lives, this Mentorship Program has been carefully designed to maximize your support. It provides you with not only a small, closely-connected sisterhood for the journey, but also peer/partner support — and most importantly, direct one-on-one coaching calls with Lisa, herself.
This is a rare chance to work personally with one of the world’s most respect sacred sexuality experts (and the one chosen by Oprah as the first to appear on her show because of her unique accessibility). Lisa is a powerful, sensitive and deeply honoring guide through this inner landscape — and she will be available to you and the community in a deep way throughout the entire 9-month program. You’ll also work with a partner the entire time, giving you another level of loving, personal support.
This is why this unique program is only available to a small, intimate group where the profound support will allow you to go to places in your healing and awakening that you’ve never gone before.
Live sessions are on Tuesdays at 12:00pm Pacific.
While the Mentorship Program will adapt to the unique needs of participants, we will also be covering 18 key subject areas to initiate you into your full SHAKTI power:
In addition to Lisa Schrader’s transformative 9-month intensive, you’ll also receive these powerful bonus sessions with some of the world’s leading visionaries and teachers. These bonus sessions will complement the intensive program — deepening your understanding and practices.
In this special call, Lisa invites her beloved, Michael Burnstein, to join our circle for a LIVE bonus call to discuss what sparks passion and polarity in long term partnership. They’ll explore what keeps things so hot, who’s on "top," worshipping the feminine and what it takes for a woman to attract a man of power and integrity. Plus you’ll experience a live Q&A session where you can ask questions and get feedback about your relationship with men.
Michael Burnstein, founder of RealManAwake.com, is a Conscious Masculine Coach. He works with both men and women, creating a safe space to explore the depths and challenges of living in the sacred masculine and feminine.
In this audio session, Lisa Schrader interviews Diana Richardson, author of Tantric Orgasm for Women, about the profound role that the breast play in a woman’s sexual responsiveness. Diana brings her decades of experience with Tantra to this intimate conversation about honoring the differences between the masculine and feminine in lovemaking.
Diana Richardson, born in Zululand, South Africa, completed her education with a degree in law. Qualified as a teacher and practitioner of therapeutic massage techniques. Living in India as a disciple of the spiritual master Osho she began a life-changing inquiry into the union of sex and meditation. After years of personal exploration, she presented a unique Tantric synthesis to the Osho Tantra School in India in 1993. Since then she has been teaching Tantra in different parts of the world with a direct practical approach that inspires couples in the art of loving.
Join Lisa and Chameli as they talk about how to establish a direct, embodied connection with the Goddess. Shift the idea of the Goddess being “out there or remote” and experience the sensations in the body of Her presence. They explore, with some fierceness, the gifts that come with commitment and practice, plus the ways the shadow feminine can sabotage our intention for depth. Plus how to feed the feminine longing within and draw strength from devotional practice.
Chameli Gad Ardagh is the founder of the Awakening Women Institute. She is a pioneer on contemporary feminine spirituality, and is inspiring women around the world through her breakthrough methods for awakening and empowering of women and girls. She is especially appreciated for her passionate love of mythology and storytelling as a method for illuminating our hidden strength and beauty. She is the initiator of a global network of groups for women, creator of two home study multi-media sets and author of 3 books on feminine empowerment and spirituality. Chameli was born in Norway and now lives in Northern California with her husband Arjuna and two sons.

When I first considered taking a deeper dive with Lisa and Awakening Shakti, a part of me was resistant to taking that kind of time for myself. Yet, something deep inside kept saying yes. I want that! I was hungry for a trusted guide to take me where I knew I could not take myself. It was the best decision I ever made. Through Lisa’s expert teaching and coaching, I discovered a deeper trust in myself, a deeper trust in life, and renewed vitality and tools to awaken SHE. And SHE is a happy, radiant, juicy self so happy to be seen again. In the year that I followed this power, my life has opened in delicious ways. Lisa is simply amazing. A gifted teacher and wise woman that I will revisit again and again.
– Katrina B., New York, NY
Lisa was a magical teacher and guide and I do very much feel like I embody my Shakti energy now. I am feeling much more balanced & creative, much more in-tune with my body, there is more pleasure in my life, more trust, more surrender in life’s flow – rather than pushing and forcing all the time. I still feel like I am integrating all that I learnt and experienced – the course was massive for me. A game-changer & life transformer! Highly recommended.
– Sara Brooke, Melbourne, Australia
This was a powerful awakening to the Divine Feminine within each of us. I would highly recommend this for any woman who wishes to explore her Shakti power. Working directly with Lisa through counseling sessions was a gift beyond words. It was a lovely personal way of solidifying the course work and bringing it home.
– Amie, Kansas City, KS
What a beautiful, powerful and soulful journey for each and every woman to become fully aware of her Shakti, of embodying Shakti in each and every moment in her own body temple and sharing this amazing gift with all her sisters ! I feel so much gratitude for my beloved sister/teacher Lisa, a true one of a kind Shakti, so much alive, so divinely passionate and humanly compassionate, so profoundly rooted and incredibly humble.
– AnuMa Jackie Heydemann, Cap d’Ail, France
Lisa is an excellent Mother figure and teacher. She has a strong commitment to her group and participants and isn’t afraid to show her own vulnerability. I loved Awakening Shakti and highly recommend it as a well constructed course that has started to transform my relationship with my own body and the feminine aspects of who I am.

Q: What is a virtual course?
I have never participated before in an online course. The packaging, presentation, inclusion and Facebook postings created a wonderful, safe cocoon to participate. I haven’t seen a course so well put together ever — not in all the years of taking college classes — and I had my doubts about doing an online course. The wealth of organization and ease of learning materials and support made this fun as well.
