A Note on Language

My work has always centered around embodied discernment: the ability to feel what’s true in your body and let that guide your choices. For a while, I used the word pleasure as a gateway to that work: the felt sense of joy, vitality, aliveness, the internal yes.

But “pleasure” got misunderstood as indulgence, self-soothing, extraction, or sex coaching. It became clear that I was speaking one language while people were hearing another. So I shelved the word (reluctantly), and kept doing the work.

What I offer (then and now) is about:

• practicing self-honesty
• building relational integrity
• taking responsibility for your impact while also holding fast to desires
• and learning to stop abandoning yourself in micro-moments of misalignment
  

The language has changed. The body of work remains the same.
