You'll find her dishing out some hot relationship and sexual exploration tips on both Virtual Naughty N'awlins in July and in her workshop at the physical Naughty N'awlins in August in New Orleans. But we thought we'd tease you with a little bit now so you can get better acquainted. Here, we ask her a few questions about the lifestyle and her Naughty experiences.
Q: Describe what you do?
A: We all have different desires and needs. My job is to help you find yours and to teach you the skills to receive them. As a somatically trained holistic sexual wellness practitioner, I guide people through experiential practices that allow them to learn through their bodies, not only their mind. My method teaches women and couples to receive and give as much pleasure as possible. Living a life full of orgasmic energy requires us to first look within to find what we want. Then allowing ourselves to accept and express those desires to our partner(s), only then are we able to feel all the pleasure we desire.
Sexual wellness is critical to overall wellness, and I believe that everyone should have access to effective information. I strive to be as accessible as I can to those who want to learn. So I offer education online through my website and in-person hosting Pure Orgasmic Love Pleasure Retreats—Aaand of-course at Naughty N’awlins, which is my favorite large event to create some pleasurable experiences.
Q: What's something you appreciate the most about the lifestyle?
A: Community. Wow, E & I love being part of this fun and friendly, sexy community—belonging feels so beautiful. The other thing that comes up for me is something I see at the live events. I love walking into the parties, seeing everyone dressed up in THEIR sexy outfits, and being able to express more of themselves. So often, we feel the need to keep part of ourselves hidden, and it's so freeing to be able to express them. We call this 'showing yourself out.'
I encourage you to 'show yourself out' at your next lifestyle event. It is a wonderful experience, even if it makes you a little nervous. If you are attending naughty this year, please find me because I want to SEE and APPRECIATE YOU.
Q: What has been your favorite experience on Naughty Nights (video chat)?
A: Seeing my framily and all the beautiful new faces! Being able to step into the community to 'show myself out'—dressing up for themes, shakin’ my bootie, and flashin’ my boobies. It gives me some of that feeling I get at Naughty N’awlins being in the actual environment. These chats have given me a significant feeling of enjoyment and connection during this time in our world.
Q: What has been your favorite experience at Naughty N'awlins?
A: Wow, so many experiences, I love all of the connections!
Next to that, I very much love being a part of the education that happens at Naughty N’awlins. The opportunity to enhance the sexual lives of everyone attending is an amazing feeling! I never get tired of seeing couples learning and then implementing the skills to enhance their experience. Hearing stories about how the things learned during Naughty N’awilns have made their sex better all year just makes me tingly in all the yummy places. ;)
Q: What is your favorite thing to teach?
A: Ahhh, that's a tough one to answer. There is so much I love to educate on, body mindfulness, anatomy, technique, communication, to name a few. But when I feel into it, the way of receiving the education I offer makes my body tingle the most.
Guiding intimate groups of individuals and partners through an erotic hands-on experience so they can discover more profound pleasure is my favorite type of classroom, like in my Pleasure Playshops. Just another reason why Naughty N’awlins is one of my favorite large events. There is access to teach in warm feeling, safe playrooms that allow attendees to relax into the experience, and embody the education I teach.
