  • Episode 117: Kink it UP a Notch with Jacqueline Greely
    Follow us on social media! We’re on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Twitter. Wherever you listen to Bringing Intimacy Back, we’d appreciate it if you left us a review. This week on Bringing Intimacy Back we are getting kinky!! Guest Speaker Jacqueline Greely will discuss Kink and Intimacy, healing to enhance intimacy and embracing feminine energy for intimacy!
    As an empath and healer, Jacqueline or affectionately called “Coach Jacqs” creates healing transformative spaces that gives women permission to live life unapologetically. As the founder of Mirrored Vision Coaching, LLC, Jacquie is purposed to help usher women into divine love and acceptance of themselves through safe talk spaces, retreats, teaching, coaching, and womb healing. She believes that women, through traumas, fears, abuse, can choose to live a life on their own terms and of her making. Jacqueline holds a master’s in public administration and over 10 years with the federal government. She also holds several trainings and certifications in birth work, yoga and Reiki practitioner, womb health, and administration.
    “Sensuality is about living in the expression of who you are.” This is a statement that Jacqueline Greely lives by and helps other women to empower themselves to do the same.
    From a young age, Jacquie was always curious about human behavior and sexuality. Alongside her young teen books were reference guides on psychology, medical articles, and a few steamy romance novels from her grandmother’s bookshelf! In college, she became a peer health educator as part of a work-study program assisting in clinics and workshops. Soon, she was leading a weekly contraception workshop for health clinic patients. Though post-college took her on a different path, women’s empowerment never strayed far from her heart. In 2013, after suffering a devasting loss, Jacquie became a certified yoga instructor and shortly after became a full-circle doula.
    Focusing on the care of women in postpartum, she was once again able to support and educate women on accepting themselves wholly, especially sexually. Once again, at the start of the 2020 pandemic, Jacquie was offered an opportunity to fulfill her childhood dream of becoming a sexologist. In 2021, Jacqueline became a certified clinical sexuality coach and master sexpert. Find more information at www.mirroredvisioncoaching.com.

About Bringing Intimacy Back

From the publisher's feed

Looking at our culture, we can see that society is becoming more disconnected. Even though we have technology that connects more people than ever before, there’s still distance. Lack of intimacy is one of the top three reasons why relationships struggle, and often times end.
