Embodied Leadership, Confidence & Creative Power: Reclaiming Feminine Energy with Bunny Divine
Wed Jan 07 2026
Welcome back to Season 3 of The Bigger Braver Life Show. I’m Angela Williams, a licensed clinical social worker and leadership mindset coach, and this season, I’m exploring something I care deeply about: the intersection of leadership, mental health, creativity, embodiment, and nervous-system capacity.
In this episode, I’m joined by Bunny Divine, a burlesque performer, showgirl, choreographer, show producer, teacher, and visionary — and the headmistress of a one-of-a-kind Showgirls School in Switzerland. Through the art of burlesque and striptease, Bunny empowers women to bring fun, confidence, and embodied self-trust back into their lives.
Bunny’s journey into burlesque began just a few years ago, challenging the belief that creativity, dance, or self-expression must start early in life. What began as curiosity quickly became expansion — leading to the creation of her own school, performance troupe, online programs, and a growing international community of students.
Her work is rooted in the belief that embodiment, play, and pleasure are not indulgences — they are pathways to confidence, intuition, and personal power. Through safe, consent-centered spaces, Bunny helps women reconnect with their bodies, trust their instincts, and explore all facets of who they are.
This conversation is playful, expansive, and deeply affirming — especially for leaders, creatives, and women who want to reclaim joy, confidence, and intuitive leadership in a world that often demands constant productivity.
In This Episode, We Discuss:💃 Embodied Leadership & Burlesque as Self-Expression
How burlesque shifts women from object to subject — reclaiming agency, choice, and power.
🔥 Starting Later & Expanding Anyway
Why it’s never too late to begin something new — and how desire and curiosity fuel growth.
🧠 Embodiment, Intuition & Nervous-System Trust
How listening to your body strengthens boundaries, decision-making, and leadership confidence.
🎨 Creativity, Play & Confidence
Why fun is not frivolous — and how play builds resilience, magnetism, and self-trust.
👠 Feminine Power Without Shame
Reframing femininity as strong, wise, and powerful — not weak or performative.
🌍 Community, Safety & Self-Expression
How Bunny created inclusive spaces for exploration, consent, and creative freedom — both in person and online.
✨ The Three Rules of Burlesque (and Life)
Have fun. Have fun. And remember: everything is a can, nothing is a must.
