About Susan:

The visionary behind The Spicy Boudoir is Ms Susan Jarvis. An ordinary woman who discovered her extraordinary self by tapping into her sexual energy. Susan shares her wisdom...

"I have experienced a transformation from a stale and empty life, to one full of love, passion, laughter and yes, bloody good sex. All because I had the guts to try. The guts to step outside my boundaries and the guts not to care what people thought of me.

This doesn’t mean that I went on an escapade of sexual conquests and swinging from the rafters. Rather, my journey was about listening to my intuition, developing self-awareness and improving my communication and interpersonal skills. I modified my perceptions of self and shifted my mindset from being conservative to being adventurous.  In other words, letting go of a lot of crap in my life.

I am passionate about helping other women, and men, find their extraordinary self, to embrace their sexuality. In particular, I feel extremely frustrated that persons aged over 50, people living with a disability and/or chronic illness are not represented in the landscape of ageless and positive sexuality. We are alive, and we desire, and deserve sexual fulfilment!

Personal growth and change are achievable at any stage of adult life.  Please don’t be one of those people lying on their deathbed full of regrets.  I certainly won't be. I have a library of deathbed memories that will keep me company when my time comes."

In the meantime, think about this quote by Dr Margaret Redelman OAM:

"What proves to you that you are alive more than sex?"
