We talk about how sex is in everything we do, think and feel even if we donโ€™t acknowledge it. The energy of creation, connection, and releasing. How our sacral chakra is both our sex centre and our creative centre.

We unpack the creative journey in the work sense alongside the dating journey.

How finding clients and dating both relate in terms of building connections and finding alignment. The importance of first impressions and energetic attraction, seeing trust and curiosity as the foundation of any great relationship.

Sex in its primal sense is for procreation and for pleasure. Acknowledging everyone has their own flavours, itโ€™s the same energy we are using when we are in a state of flow.

Releasing creative work into the world can feel vulnerable. We talk about the importance of aftercare, integration and checking in as the relationship or business grows.

We talk about creating psychological safety, continuous dialogue, and care throughout the creative journey.

Sex is most commonly linked to physical intimacy but there is energetic intimacy.

๐—•๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜€ & ๐—™๐—น๐—ผ๐˜„

Knowing where we can go and where we canโ€™t. Building a culture of trust in both work & personal relationships.

Just as relationships require tending to stay alive, so does creativity. Checking in with creative desires like we check in with sexual desires.

Talking about sex is one of the most challenging yet liberating conversations we can have. How societal shame around sex translates into creative blocks. The importance of curiosity over performance (in both sex & creative work).

Sex & creativity are two sides of the same coin when you embrace one, you free the other transforming how you show up in the world.

How can you step further into your sexual energy to fuel your work & personal relationships?
