I met my Pleasure Muse when introduced to my second husband Jason, who showed up to our relationship in such a strong, sensual way; nurturing my own sexual embodiment, and igniting lusty adventures that ultimately developed into a grounded, committed marriage.
Then, like most couples who want children, our heated and passionate intimacy became obligatory sex when we tried for several years to conceive. I took a break from the high stress as a TV Producer and opened up a Health Coaching and Colon Hydrotherapy spa as part of my own health makeover. I didn’t realize that working with others in this intimate capacity of health and body connection—making them feel safe and comfortable during colonics, and maintaining their privacy and integrity at all times—was the perfect training ground for transitioning to a Sexological Bodyworker. |
With our final miscarriage, I declared, “If we aren’t going to use sex for procreation, let’s see what else is possible!”
As the only child of hippie, college educated parents, I was literally born into the Age of Aquarius (how apropos). Having failed at a first marriage that lacked intimacy and physical connection, I learned the painful lesson of how it feels to strongly desire the man I loved, but be unable to elicit his arousal for a physical relationship. My emotions, self-esteem, libido, and body image plummeted, while I became more and more convinced that my fractured marriage meant that I was broken too.
My self-development and personal healing following my first marriage led me to realize that erotic possibility is our own responsibility. Granted, deep relating with another grows us in other ways—and can be very fun, for sure—but until we can feel our own somatic connection, we can never truly receive the perfect partner or transform our current relationship. Fast forward to my certification as a Somatic Sexological Bodyworker… |

Had my first husband and I been coached by a Sexological Bodyworker or a Somatic Sex Educator, perhaps our marriage could have been saved, or healing could have happened sooner, but not all was lost—not by a longshot! Having lost one love-relationship to what I didn’t then understand about sexual embodiment to lighting it up within myself and then stoking that fire with another; I’m wholeheartedly committed to helping clients spark their own sexuality, maintain and enhance the secret ingredient of desire, embrace their feminine and masculine essence, and use sex and intimacy as a playful sacred pathway for connection and personal development.
