Why I Became a Sex Coach

Moving abroad was one of the best things that I have done for healing and my self-love journey. Before I left I had just begun learning how to find my self-worth and love from within. Moving 6000 miles away from my support system definitely kicked that into high drive. I went on dates by myself because I wanted to try them and had no one to go with. I learned to ask for what I needed and got to take time and get to know myself again. While in Germany I also learned that I no longer wanted to go back into teaching and actually started my bachelor’s in business management. That is before I got my job at the boutique sex shop I manage now. I got my job and continued my classes until I was promoted and started working full time. I finished out the term and then stopped schooling and focused on building a life for myself where I was. I moved out and found friends locally. Then the pandemic hit in 2020 and as happy as I was I felt very unsure about my future as most people did.

Once the pandemic hit I had already fallen in love with the sex industry and so I researched other careers within it. I knew that I don’t want to work retail forever and I found sex education. I took my first boot camps on sex education and making a career out of it so I started rebranding and switched greats from a lifestyle blog to accessible sex education. That was going great and I enjoyed it but around summer I found my now mentor Jocelyn Silva and the world of sex coaching. After following quite a few coaches and doing more research I knew that I wanted to be a sex coach. Now we are making that dream come true!

No, that we got the how out of the way lets talk about why I am here. Something I learned after changing careers was that I just really loved helping people and empowering them to do things and reach goals. Whether it be through teaching or being a sex educator and coach. As a coach, I help women and femmes feel sexually empowered and heal their relationships with sex and intimacy. On my own journey of self-love, sexual empowerment and letting go of the shame that was taught to me and the self-hate I had learned. By learning what I liked and what I needed, liked and wanted, it helped me learn how to love myself again and heal my relationship with my body, sex, love, and intimacy. Sexual empowerment is something that I will always be thankful for and that’s why I am a sex coach. To help others along their sexual empowerment journey.
