Dating doesn’t have to suck!

Practicing the 5% pleasure rule (asking myself in every moment: how can I add 5% more pleasure to this?) changed everything for me:

• I stayed confident even when I was being rejected

• I made dating apps fun for me so I didn’t give up on finding love..

• Pleasure kept me in the game for long enough to meet my life partner (fucking worth it!)

You deserve a dreamy AF partner who will love you & hold you & walk through this wild journey of life with you

No more feeling like your love life is doomed every time it doesn’t work out with someone you’re into

No more checking your phone every 5 seconds to see if they’ve texted back

You can design your dating life around your pleasure

The 30-Day Pleasure Reset is where you’ll do that

In this episode, Rachel Rae Halder (who was my coach when I was in depression) and I talk about the freeze response (aka stuckness in your life) and how you can work with it on your healing journey. 

Rachel is a holistic sexuality, soul embodiment & trauma resolution guide - and someone whose work and genius I respect and admire very much.

We talk about: 

• How the freeze response can show up as stuckness, burnout, depression, resistance to intimacy, or resistance to doing the things you want to do in your life

• The shame that comes with the freeze response and how to un-shame it

• The importance of love, curiosity, and small, doable steps to move through freeze into action 

• The different kinds of freeze that can happen and how you can identify them in your life as a tool for self-understanding and compassion 

• I talk about my journey working with Rachel through my depression from burnout to the small, doable steps I took to slowly unthaw the depression 

• The wisdom and power that can come from going down into  the Underworld

• Why this work is so important for creatives, leaders, and for people going on a journey of deepening their capacity for pleasure, intimacy & love
