Dr. Tammy talks with sensuality mentor and author of The Sure Thing: A Pleasure Practice to Revive the Spark about empowering your sex life, strengthening your relationship, liberating yourself - and all about the 13 Moon Mystery School.

GUEST

Elana Auerbach is a mentor, activist, author, and the founder of Sensuelle: A Woman’s Journey into Sensuality — a transformational program designed to help women reconnect with their bodies, authentic voice, and passion.

After building what looked like the “perfect” life — graduating Phi Beta Kappa from UCLA, working on Wall Street, and marrying someone with whom she felt no chemistry, Elana realized she had been living disconnected from herself. In 2001, she made the life-changing decision to leave her marriage and begin a deeply personal journey into sensuality, embodiment, and authentic connection.

Since then, she has spent more than two decades guiding women and couples into deeper intimacy, pleasure, and self-awareness. An ordained priestess through the Sanctuary of the 13 Moon Mystery School, Elana taught feminine mystery work for over a decade and has become a trusted voice in conversations around sexuality, relationships, and personal liberation.

Her latest book, The Sure Thing, was inspired by her own long-term relationship and the real-life challenges of keeping intimacy alive over time — offering a practical and transformative approach to creating lasting sexual connection.
