My gratitude…

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

I’m Back!

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

The cost of being a Domme, an educator and a Life Coach is that time is not always on your side but finally I have it back to where it should be. Yay!

Life Coaching is a huge part of my life as there are so many people in our community who need someone to talk to (not just play with) who “get it” and can help them work through the issues and struggles that are specific to our community both as individuals as well as any combination of D/s and M/s F/families. I also help work with vanilla counter-parts and extended family and help when people have children in the mix.

Please take a moment to look around my site and as always, feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Take care,

Mistress Shae Flanigan

Happy Holidays

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!

My big news!

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

 

 

My thanks….

To everyone who came out to my workshop last evening and to Threshold Society and Slave Bren for inviting me to present. I hope folks had as wonderful of a time as I did during the first of my two part Blood Lust series! I thoroughly enjoyed all of your enthusiasm, openness and fantastic questions.

I can’t wait for Feb 18th and the opportunity to bring you the 2nd class in this fantastically hot series. Please be aware however that this next course will be significantly more intense so if you have any amount of queasiness around blood, you may find yourself needing to exit the room at some point during the workshop.

Additionally, for those who are interested, there will be a Women’s Only Gear Party immediately following Part 2 so dress to impress and wear your best Leather, fetish or uniform gear and get ready for an evening filled with amazing play with like minded women and yours truly! Also, Don’t forget! Those attending the Gear Party are comped into my Blood Lust Part 2 workshop! Just make sure to let them know that you’re RSVPing for both!. :)

This next week promises to be full of wickedly delightful sessions and amazing adventures and as always, I look forward to seeing you all soon!

Take care,

Mistress Shae Flanigan

 

Blood Lust Workshop THIS WEEKEND!

Saturday from 5 – 7 pm at Threshold Society ($5 for members, $10 for non-members)

This will be the first of a two part series discussing and exploring all the delightful avenues of blood-play.

During this first workshop we will be covering needles, puncturing, piercing technique, safety, best practices, hygiene, bio-hazard concerns and everything beginning blood-play enthusiasts need to know and some tips that even the most veteran of us can use refreshing on.

In the second workshop (coming in Feb) we will dive into how to get the most blood for your puncture buck…. so to speak. Cover topics like how to tell how much is -too- much and discuss all the delicious and sexy things that make the difference between “blood-play” and “blood-lust”.

I hope to see you there!

Wonderful day

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having as delightful of a day as I am.

My morning started off beautifully by greeting a lecture hall of eager faces at OCC to speak on the Human Sexuality Panel.

Although, I’ve spoken on a number of panels now, it still amazes me how each class of students can be so completely different from the last. Though each class has a few similar questions between them, each class varies greatly in their perspectives, views, questions and interests.

Each panel for me is an amazing opportunity to reach out to new minds and do our part to break down social stereotypes and biases the students bring with them…. some they’re aware of, some they’re not.

We tend to hear it all; questions like: “are you Satan Worshipers?” to “aren’t Pro-Dommes prostitutes?” or more general concepts like: “Is all BDSM painful?” to ”What’s the difference between what you do and abuse?”

Answering these questions and helping to open people’s minds can sometimes make all the difference between whether people see the world as a solid black line with “normal” people on one side and “freaks” on the other, or if they see it as it truly is, a world where perspective is everything, there is no black line dividing “good” things from “bad” things.

No matter where we go, or what we do, our tastes and interests will constantly be evolving and changing. This is true for our palate, our style, our musical tastes and many of our other proclivities as well. So, what we may have thought was “good” or “bad” 10, 15, 20 years ago may be very different from what we consider to be “good”, “bad”, “sexy”, “amazing” or “INCREDIBLE” now. That’s not to say that we don’t enjoy the same comfort-food kraft mac & cheese that we used to adore when we were kids on occasion, it just means that we also cherish an amazing foie gras now as well.

Education can have huge positive results. It can stop hate crimes, remove us from being the “scary unknown” and in some instances can even help someone stand up for us when someone they know wrongly accuses “one of those people” of doing something horrific and non-consensual to an innocent person. Every little bit helps and if I can potentially help create a positive ripple effect, then every moment of my time has been worth it, ten-fold.

Now, as promised, here is the much anticipated link to my interview on the Rev Mel show with Mistress Nicolette, KC Calhoun.

2 hrs later and back to where I was….

Website rebuild down to two hours…. not bad. In the process I made some minor tweaks and a few improvements. Now, if I can just manage to get my gallery uploaded without destroying everything again I’ll be thrilled.

In other news, how many others out there have been taken out by monster migraines? I have, my partner Angelina has, my sister-in-law has and I know of a few others coast to coast, male and female. So, what gives? Are you part of the migraine wave? If so, what are you doing to get through?

Personally, I’m laying flat on my back in the dark working on my website intermittently as the massive spikes of pain come and go. For those of you I’ve had the chat with about “good pain” vs “bad pain” this unequivocally falls into the “bad pain” category…. there is simply no two ways about it.

So, as the pain seems to be building again, I’m going to cut this short, but as I said earlier, take a look around my new site and let me know your thoughts… Some changes were minor, some a little more obvious.

As always, take care until I see you next,

MSF

This is getting a wee bit tiresome….

I was just putting the final touches on my new gallery and about to upload it, when *BAM* I hit the wrong button and my entire site ceased to exist…. again.

So, here I am, once again rebuilding my site…. at least its getting a bit faster now. (Theres a bright side to everything right?)

So please bare with me as I go through all the tedious page creation process again. Feel free to add your thoughts and comments; as you can see my site is very much still in the works.

Take care,

Mistress Shae Flanigan
