I would like to extend my thanks to Slave Bren and everyone at Threshold Society for hosting the 2nd class in my Blood Lust series this last Saturday and to all the attendees who came to join me!

It is an honor to present for you and I hope you all enjoyed yourselves. It was wonderful to see so many of you returning from the 1st in the series as well as many new faces joining me for the first, but hopefully not last, time.

The Women’s ONLY Gear Party after my workshop was utterly incredible! I cannot express enough how fantastic of a job Mistress Melissa and Slave Bren did hosting the event! Well Done Ladies! The play was outstanding and the wardrobe was ridiculously HOT! Throw in the port and cigar lounge with boot blacking stations and you have yourself a VERY Happy Mistress indeed!

Thank you B/both again! When did you say the next event was?

In other news, I just had the pure delight of sharing a Double Domme session with the one and only Ms. Julie Spanks. If you have not had the pleasure of sharing her company you are truly missing out! We shared an incredible afternoon together and I am quite looking forward to her return so we can enjoy many more future adventures.

Take care everyone and Happy President’s Day

Just returned from a crazy weekend down in San Diego with my Leather Family teaching at The Hard Edge. For those who are not aware, The Hard Edge is a space where educators get to push themselves to the max. Normally as presenters we teach 101 or 201 level classes, but in The Hard Edge space we get to present at a 1001 level…. and it really is as intense as it sounds.

Before going in, and all throughout the weekend, we stress that these workshops are NOT intended for beginning level players, we also let attendees know that at NO time will we be offended if they feel the need to walk out of, or take a break during our classes.

Creating our workshops, we discover our limits and boundaries and push our own triggers and buttons so that we can help those in attendance discover theirs and explore the WHY behind their personal buttons.

I was amazingly blessed to be joined by my co-presenter Bryan Teague (American Leatherboy 2010). Over the years I have had the honor of presenting with many talented and incredible folks; Bryan by far is the truest example of these. His humor, wit and intelligence brings a wonderful light and grace to the stage that make it a true delight to join him. It’s rare to have such a cohesive chemistry with someone…. when it happens, each workshop becomes an amazing adventure, filled with fun, excitement and all the things that make our world what it is!

To The Hard Edge Volunteers, Staff, Presenters and Attendees, thank you all for your energy, time and dedication; this event would not be what it is without each of you.

Take care everyone and I look forward to seeing you all soon!

So a thought occurred to me this morning that many of my clients don’t actually know my business hours. They know that when they call me, I either answer, or it gets routed to voicemail and I call them back as soon as I am able.

For those past almost 2 years now my schedule has become packed to the point that although I “say” that I take Sunday’s for myself, and I “say” that I am an 8-hour of sleep a night woman, that doesn’t in fact happen. During the times that I am not physically in session, I am either answering emails, taking client calls, attending conferences, teaching workshops, working on my website, speaking on college panels, doing photoshoots or any of the other day to day behind the scenes tasks that keep my business and kink education world afloat.

It hasn’t donned on me until very recently, that I have allowed myself to get so caught up in all the amazing fun I’ve been having that I failed to notice the “me” time and rest I so dearly need was slipping away little by little.

This doesn’t mean I’ll be cutting back on my play, workshops or event schedule…. quite the contrary in fact! Starting next week, Sunday will be available for booking sessions, so let the Religious fantasies overflow-ith!

What I will be cutting back on are my available phone hours, so instead of 10:30 – 8:00pm you will now be able to reach me for appointments from 1:00pm – 7:00pm. This will hopefully enable me to separate from my phone and laptop a bit more and make it more possible for me to spend more quality time signed into Nite Flirt for scheduled distance training.

Take care everyone and I look forward to seeing you soon!

This year thus far has been a brilliant year of purification and enlightenment. In the mere three weeks of the New Year I have been amazed again and again with how beautifully this year has chosen to resolve issues, redefine stale relationships, simplify clutter and in short CLENSE my life in a variety of wonderful ways.

Brilliantly enough, I’m finding this to be true for many others around me as well. Perhaps 2011 was a year of “staging”…. that tedious time, (much like setting up rows and rows of dominoes with great precision) now  however, we find ourselves primed to tap that single starting piece and finally see all of our work pay off in beautiful arching cascades around us.

2012 is a beautiful year thus far and I hope it is for all of you as well. I know many of us were beaten down by the economy and job crashes, but it seems as though through those crashes we found a strength within ourselves to become greater and stronger without the structures that we had been leaning on for so many years. So now as things begin to stabilize again, we grow even stronger still both internally and externally, this time though with wisdom to invest wiser and cherish our happiness for the treasure it truly is and appreciate all the gifts, whether extravagant or free, that life has to offer.

That internal strength is precisely how this post ties into kink. It’s when we are strong enough to be ourselves and truly embrace and love ourselves… all of our fetishes and kinks included is when we truly are free to enjoy and love life. When we allow ourselves to step free from guilt and shame we truly breathe for the first time. With that freedom and self-love, it doesn’t matter what else happens in life, we will always have happines, joy, passion and amazing kinky times!

So this 2012 I hope your year is cleansed of all the negativity that pulls your down. Make this year a wonderful year for you.

Take care and I look forward to seeing you soon,

Mistress Shae Flanigan

I hope everyone’s 2012 has been starting off as beautifully as mine has! My week has been filled with amazing play and wonderful adventures thus far and it shows no signs of slowing down!

I am thrilled to announce that I will be wrapping up this week in San Diego. I am currently booked today until 7pm (my evening and late evening slots are still available) and Friday-day I still have available (for you daytime folks) but am booked from 7:30 on.

If you are interested in seeing me during this trip would like to fit into my schedule for this trip down, contact me now. After the holiday break I have been in the mood for some deliciously heavy or pampering play…. Current clients may txt, new clients email or call only please.

Take care and see you soon!

To my wonderful slaves, pets, followers, devotees and personals who have spoiled me, pampered me and treated me to worlds of delights this holiday season.

Some of you who have really stood out among the pack are slave t, slave j, and slave m. 

Each of you know how selective I am in who I choose to see and allow to serve me and it means the world to me that you have made the effort and taken the time to show me how much our time together means to you.

I have greatly enjoyed the visits and very thoughtful gifts from those of you I have seen before the holidays and I am quite looking forward to catching up with those of you who have been tangled up with other obligations.

Please know that while we may not have seen one another, you have been in my mind and I hope you have had a fantastic holiday.

Take care and I will look forward to seeing you soon,

Mistress Shae Flanigan

After a long downtime my Life Coaching site: www.ChooseTheRoadLessTraveled.com is FINALLY back!

I hope everyone has or is enjoying their holiday season filled with precisely what they are hoping for… whether bountiful gifts, a quiet evening at home, a black and blue derriere or a season spent with family…. I hope all of your season’s wishes are coming true!

This season tends to bring out different yearnings in all of us and rarely is each year the same as its predecessor.  It’s true that this could be said for any holiday, but there is something about this season, this time of cold, and extended darkness that lends us to desire the warmth of others. This holiday more than others it seems has more weight to it than others. That isn’t to say that we don’t have our little traditions which make us smile as well, but it seems at any given moment in our lives, our priorities may shift and the little non-sensical things, may suddenly become “huge” ordeals; where another year the things that we *thought* were huge are suddenly shown truly to be of no importance at all in the light of something larger.

No matter what our upbringing, or country of origin most areas have a holiday celebrated this time of year, so to everyone I wish you a very happy holiday, whichever yours is and however you celebrate. May your joys be plenty and your sorrows be few and all that your value most be near to you.

As my personal gift to you, clients are invited to enjoy 10% off their next session with me now until the end of January.

Take care!

It is with great pleasure I am happy to announce My new partnership with Damiana Chi and the famous Chi Temple in downtown Los Angeles!

So now in addition to receiving clients in My Families gorgeous Dungeon Servitus in San Diego, clients seeing Me in LA will have the opportunity to see Me in the beautiful and wonderfully discrete Chi Temple.

For those of you already familiar with the lovely Chi Temple, expect some wonderful new changes in the near future. As many of you know heavy play and intense medical scenes are some of My deepest passions, so over the next few weeks I will be reworking and perfecting the medical room there making into My personal medical-fetish dream come true!

Speaking of “intense medical” I invite you to read Veronica Volt’s recent blog about her experince at My recent “Blood Lust Part 1 of 2″ workshop at Threshold. http://veronicavolt.wordpress.com/2011/12/15/bloodlust-the-workshop/

I look forward to seeing all of My LA clients soon and introducing you to My new LA “home” at the Chi Temple.

Take care,

Mistress Shae Flanigan
