I’m Jade
Sex & intimacy coach. Facilitator. Poetic pragmatist. Hard truth-teller. Big heart, clear mirror.
I help humans remember their bodies, ask for what they actually want, and love with more honesty, humor, and heat. My work blends somatics, consent education, breathwork, nervous‑system skills, and simple practices you can take into Tuesday.
Why “Jade”
Jade isn’t the hardest gemstone, that’s diamond, but it is famously tough: dense, resilient, and hard to break because of its interlocking crystal structure. People once carved blades and tools from it. That’s my style: no‑nonsense, tough love—held in a massive heart. I’ll tell you the truth with warmth, hold you through the wobble, and help you shape what’s ready to change.
I was fascinated by sex early on, equal parts wonder and science experiment, which led me into a wide range of experiences: some lovely, some messy, all educational. I grew up in a divorced household with very few models of honest, steady love. So I went searching.
I searched everywhere: medicine ceremonies, tantra trainings, relational workshops, stacks of books, and lots of therapy, basically any self‑development doorway I could find. By my late twenties, after a medicine journey, I heard a clear instruction from my intuition: help people come home to their bodies and their truth.
Eventually I realized I needed perspective, not more input. So I chose a long season of celibacy, the edgiest thing I could imagine at the time. In that quiet, I unbraided my worth from sexual attention and saw how, for years, sex was easier for me than vulnerability. That changed me.
True intimacy, naming needs, revealing fears, receiving devotion, asked more courage than anything I’d done. Over time I got clear on my non‑negotiables and, alongside them, grew real compassion for the people I partnered with and real comfortability being emotionally naked.
Then I met my devoted, generous, solid, epic human. He has two kids who are gently training this child gymnast to become a ball‑sports person. Nowadays I am constantly working on revealing more of myself in relationship and growing my capacity for even more love.
It’s been a hell of a ride. I’m still on it.
You’re invited.
The longer story
What I believe
Intimacy is something we remember, not perform.
Pleasure is a compass and boundaries are an act of love.
Clarity is kind, repair is sacred, go slow to go fast.
The body tells the truth before the mind finds language.
Every structure of love (monogamy, ENM, blended families, co‑parenting) deserves skillful care.
Shame is loud, presence is louder.
Who I work with
Individuals seeking deeper embodiment, clarity, and pleasure
Couples (monogamous, ENM, married, dating, co‑parenting)
Folks rebuilding after rupture or betrayal
High‑capacity leaders who want intimacy skills that match their life skills

Beyond Coaching
Alongside my work as a somatic intimacy coach, I’m also a global event producer. For over a decade, I’ve curated transformational events, intimacy workshops, and large-scale gatherings designed to bring people together in meaningful, unforgettable ways.
From international summits to wellness retreats, my work has always centered on one thing: connection — between people, ideas, and bodies.
When I’m not guiding clients or producing events, you’ll find me immersed in nature, dancing barefoot under the stars, kitchen witching with my partner experimenting with what’s growing in the garden.
