My guest this week is Denise Holler. Denise is a Clinical Sexologist and Certified Sex Coach with a passion for enhancing the intimate lives of her clients. She believes in breaking the taboo around sex and providing education in this essential area. Specializing in working with women and couples, Denise addresses various aspects of sex and intimacy, including uneven desire, low libido, body image issues, and enhanced pleasure, all through a holistic approach known as the MEBES model. By evaluating the Mind, Emotions, Body, Energy, and Spirit, she helps individuals and couples unblock areas of concern and achieve alignment for a more fulfilling sexual experience. Denise's mission is to help people rediscover pleasure, gain confidence, and find happiness in the bedroom. Alongside her professional work, she is also an advocate for the Neurodivergent community, as she herself has ADHD and has been working with ADHD coaches for several years.
In this episode, we cover topics ranging from masturbation and body image to communication in the bedroom. It is fascinating to learn about Denise's work helping people overcome issues and fully embrace pleasure.
