LORI HOSTS A CASUAL CHAT WITH CO-MODERATOR/COACHES CINDI & REBEKAH TO TALK ALL THINGS INTIMACY. 

CINDI ROBERTS

Sex and sobriety - a pretty unique combination and a topic that many people avoid. After finding recovery from alcohol in November 2016, I struggled with how to combine my professional experience in sexuality education and my newfound passion for helping women on their sober journey. Why weren't women talking about sex in the meeting rooms? Was I the only one struggling with confidence in the bedroom without the mask of alcohol? The more I started the conversations, the more women opened up. So many women are navigating intimate relationships in sobriety and have concerns, questions and fear. That's when I realized that talking about sex openly is a gift and I wanted to share my knowledge with the recovery community!

My clients would describe me as a positive motivator, attentive listener and gentle teacher that also tells it like it is. I want to focus on the future while acknowledging your past and helping you move through the difficult stuff. I know it can be scary or difficult to ask for help and to open up your world to another person. Knowing this, I take special care to provide a relaxed, supportive and non-judgemental space for you.

I have been devoted to serving the public health community for over 20 years. After earning my Master's degree in Health Education, I knew that I wanted to specialize in the field of human sexuality and help shatter the taboo around the gift of sex. I worked in the community health setting and the hospital system and gained more public health knowledge with each new endeavor.

For 13 years, I built a prosperous $2.6 million business in the network marketing industry. I not only had one of the largest teams in the multi-million dollar company, but I served on the esteemed Board of Directors for 8 years. In this position, I was able to train thousands of consultants in sexual health education and product knowledge (yep, we sold sex toys!)      I retired from the company in 2016 to create my dream job of motivational speaking and sexual health consulting. My zone of genius was (and still is) helping individuals feel more confident about their own sexuality and intimate relationships.

In 2018, I decided to earn my certificate as a Certified Professional Coach and Certified Professional Recovery Coach from the International Association of Professional Recovery Coaches. I also completed the She Recovers Coaching program to help women in recovery from a variety of issues.  So, I talk about sex, alcohol, grief, divorce, intimacy.... all of it! 

REBEKAH ROSE WALL

On my journey of healing and recovery, I realized that self-care isn’t just about activities or events that make you feel good. It has to do with how you speak to yourself, loving yourself and cultivating things like

Grace

Courage

Confidence

Boundaries

Worthiness

Authenticity

Enough-ness

Self-Acceptance

Self-Compassion

It’s also about cultivating community and joyful relationships. It’s about taking our yoga off that mat, and living it each and everyday.

Which is what inspired me to create this space, a space to cultivate a lifestyle that awakens your innate ability to befriend your body, bring peace to your heart and stillness to your mind.
