Do You Desire To…
Powerful things happen when women gather.
Are you ready to to take up space and claim the beauty, wholeness, and sacredness that is within you as a sensually embodied and sovereign woman?
If you’re reading this it’s because you have a beating in your heart and a yearning in your bones for something “more”.
You might not know what that “more” is but you have a feeling that what you’re seeking is seeking (and already is within) you.
You are perhaps at a transitional point in your career, marriage, or life stage and you can feel the scales tipping and you want to tip them in your favor.
Or maybe you are a mother or a wife and you have lost yourself in the doing and tending to others and you desire to remember who you are and release any labels or identities that no longer fit.
You tend to pendulum swing between damsel in distress and boss b*tch and you crave balance within your heart and mind and with your current or future partner.
You want “more”.
Are you ready to find out how to find, feel, and receive it?

About your guide
Hi, I’m Jess,
Feminine Embodiment Guide, Movement Therapist, Primal Medicine Mastery Practitioner, Physical Therapist Assistant
Sensual & Sovereign was midwifed through my own healing journey from the trauma, shame and disconnection my body experienced from multiple sexual assaults in my late twenties & early thirties.
I felt dirty and shameful and the abuse led to more self destructive behaviors.
Excessive alcohol, illicit drugs, and promiscuous sex were a regular occurance.
I hated myself every time I “slipped up” so I would numb the pain by doing more of the same.
I was spiraling.
In hindsight, I now know I was doing what some survivors of traumatic experiences will do in an attempt to provide a sense of control no matter how illusory. I was sensation seeking in an attempt to fill the void of nothingness. To feel anything but the shame and separation.
It wasn’t until my life-changing sabbatical at the Esalen Institute and discovering the book Wild Feminine, that I was able to reconnect with my body, spirit, and self-worth with sensual practices like yoga, dance, hands on therapies, and most surprisingly to me at the time: bathing nude in the warm mineral springs.
The last thing I thought that would connect me to my sacredness and wholeness was my naked body. It was my nakedness and sexuality that had gotten me into so much trouble. Or so I believed. But it was paradoxically in the reclaiming of these sensual activities for myself that I was able to begin the healing process of coming home to my wholeness.
This was the beginning of my journey back home to my body, my sacred sensuality, and sexuality. Back home to my sovereignty.
And it’s a journey that I know I am not alone on.

Feminine Embodiment Guide
“If you can feel it, you can heal it.”
“What you understand you respect, what you respect you honor, and what you honor cannot be shamed and kept in the dark.”
“If You Can Feel It, You Can Heal It.”
Since my return from Esalen in 2016, I've been on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, offering various forms of women's studies with an undertone of sensuality.
However, I've hesitated to fully embrace sensuality as the focal point, fearing offense or vulnerability. What I've come to realize is that the more I share my past and openly discuss sensuality, the more women resonate with my message and express a desire for deeper exploration.
Therefore, I'm stepping boldly into the light, no longer hiding behind vague event names like "Sacred Center" or "Self-Care Sunday."
Instead, I am proudly declaring my intention: Sensual & Sovereign.
This is a space where women can embrace their sensuality and reclaim their sovereignty without hesitation or apology.
Join me on this empowering journey of self-discovery and liberation.
Sensual & Sovereign is an immersive and impactful experience inspired by my own lived experience and 7 years of offering practices to women to reconnect to their sensual and feminine nature.
What I offer you, is a unique blend of the practical with the poetic. Practical Poetry if you will.
Implementing practices that are informed by my 17 years of training as a physical therapist assistant, you will actually know what is going on inside of your body, the very foundation for feeling and being sensual!
Equipped with practical knowledge about your pelvic bowl, you will be guided to the more sensual and spiritual aspects of reconnecting with your body with my decade of experience as a yoga teacher and more specifically as a Primal Medicine Mastery Practitioner which includes studies with Tami Kent, the author of “Wild Feminine”, the book that changed the trajectory of my life.
With a little science and a lot of soul, you will be supported in healing the shame and disconnection from your body and you will reclaim the wholeness and radiance that’s always been within you.
I’m extending this invitation to you because I've traversed the depths myself, and I continue to do so. I've journeyed through the darkness and emerged stronger each time, thanks to the practices I'll be sharing with you.
You already possess the tools and knowledge within you to embark on this transformative journey. I'm here to offer guidance and support as you reclaim your sensual and sovereign self.
Are you ready to join me, along with other women who are committed to walking this path beside you?
Sensual, Sovereign, Beautiful & Whole.
A journal excerpt for my muse and my why for
Sensual & Sovereign,
A sensual and sovereign woman is clear and convicted in her desires and worth.
She is balanced in her feminine energy of receiving and resting and her masculine energy of producing and doing.
A sensually embodied woman is Embodied Queen energy that is bold, strong, and sovereign.
She doesn’t have to clutch onto her title(s) or prove herself to anyone because she and everyone knows her value and worth.
She stands regal and soft in her beauty and grace.
She commands every room she enters with the poise and power of a sensually embodied woman.
This woman is the mother who knows how to nurture her children and her creations without becoming a martyr or slave to her family or work.
This woman is clear in her values and integrity and holds her physical and energetic boundaries in the highest of regards that she doesn’t even have to speak them for others to feel and respect them.
As a sensual and sovereign woman, you will shed the shame that you’ve been carrying because of your past sexual abuse and you will celebrate the magic of being a woman: capable, resilient, and beautiful.
You will foster deep intimacy with your current or future partner because you’ve experienced it for yourself first.
A sensual and sovereign woman is quite simply the best version of you: connected to your body, desires, spirituality and all of the multi-faceted ways you get to be yourself: whole and complete as you are and acutely aware of the ways in which you can light up the world by turning yourself on and up!
Are you ready to awaken the sensual and sovereign woman within you?

-
We will be discussing topics like sexual assault, religion, and masturbation. These can all be triggering topics. And while it is expected (and encouraged) for emotions to come up, if you feel like you would not be comfortable discussing these topics without being re-traumatized, I would suggest speaking with your therapist to determine if you are ready for a group setting. It is also important to note that this is NOT group therapy and while there will be mental health counselors available as resources, they will not be leading discussions or offering sessions in real time. Please accurately and honestly assess your ability to participate in the group so that everyone can feel as safe and supported as possible.
