🌟Life update🌟
I'm still in my cocoon stage but coming out of burnout. I have been taking on more and not balancing it out with more self care.

At the beginning of the year I was given the opportunity to join @vitamethod to dive deeper into coaching and to become a coach for sex, love and relationships.

This program has been amazing, life changing, healing and so very challenging and I'm only half way through this 1-2 year journey. I just started coaching my peers this month and it's so helpful and definitely pushing me outta my comfort zone.

I'm learning so much about relationships, the nervous system, sexuality, love, tantra, somatic healing, coaching methodology and much more. I haven't studied this hard since college, maybe even harder😆

It's been incredible to be part of such a welcoming, supportive, loving community of women that truly celebrates one another in our highs and lows. I want more of this in the Brainerd area and I'm hoping to help foster that.

I'm swimming along and dancing through this beautiful, challenging time and I cannot wait to share these new gifts of support with my community hopefully in the new year 💓👑

I'll still be facilitating women's circles through @wildflower_wisdom_coaching.llc and still teaching belly dance and fan veils through @bonsai_dance_flow and this training will add to these experiences in beautiful new ways that I'm so excited for🥰

I didn’t learn this work from a book. I learned it in my body through the shame, the numbness, the years of not being able to orgasm, the marriage that was quietly dying, the moment I realized I had no idea what actually turned me on.

I am a @vitamethod certified sex, love, and relationship coach and a somatic integrative trauma therapist. But more than that I am someone who has walked this path herself.

I know what it’s like to look successful on the outside while feeling completely disconnected on the inside. To have done the therapy, read the books, listened to all the podcasts, built the career and still feel like something essential inside of me is missing.

I also know what it takes to come back.
To rebuild trust with a body that felt like a stranger.

To stop performing pleasure and start actually feeling it.

To become multi-orgasmic in my late 30s after spending decades believing I was broken.

I don’t guide women through this work because I studied it.

I guide them because I’ve lived it and I’m still living it.

If you’re ready to stop abandoning yourself and start coming home to your body, your pleasure, and your power, I have 5 more spots open for 1:1 coaching.

DM me “BECOMING” or tap the link in my bio to book a free 1:1 enrollment call.

Your erotic self has been waiting for you. I’d be honored to help you find her.

I am so excited to have received my Jade Egg Certificate from @thelaylamartin's @vitamethod 🎉

This expands my existing work with certifications in Sex, Love, and Relationships, Women's Empowerment, and Reiki I & II, to support women in having a deeper relationship with their bodies and sxxuality.

For me, it's always been about more than just sxx.

It's a divine connection with our life force energy that nourishes, fuels us, connects us, and transforms us into more authentic, more open, more grounded, and more radiant versions of ourselves through a unique form of nervous system regulation, embodiment, and divine communion.

A lot of nervous system work is focussed on finding your calm, through jade egg and my embodiment work, we use pleasure and feeling our full array of emotions and sensations to regulate our nervous system and rewire our subconscious to let go of the layers of fear, shame, and be, and come more into alignment.

Not to mention all of the incredible physical health benefits for the pelvic floor and overall well-being.

This work has already been blended in my offerings and I can't wait to relaunch Ignite with even more of this flavouring ✨

I’m honored to share that I’ve been accepted as a Guardian of Eros for the 2026 VITA™ Coaching Certification cohort, founded by @thelaylamartin

This role feels especially meaningful because VITA™ didn’t just train me to become a masterful coach it reshaped how I understand intimacy, leadership, and transformation itself.

VITA™ is a year-long professional certification in sex, love, and relationship coaching grounded in embodiment, nervous-system awareness, relational integrity, ethical power, and lived practice.

You don’t just study the work you become it.

The program unfolds across three trimesters:

✨ Trimester 1 is a deep self-transformation process, where you embody the tools first.
✨ Trimester 2 trains you in the proprietary 10-module VITA coaching system for guiding clients through lasting change.
✨ Trimester 3 is a business bootcamp focused on niche, offers, and building something real and sustainable.

In Trimester 3, I chose to specialize further in Relationship Transformation, Life Transitions, and Tantric Sex—learning how to support attachment repair and relational rupture, guide people through identity-shifting seasons of loss, and becoming, and work with eros and intimacy as sacred life force, without performance, pressure, or bypassing.

What I took from this program wasn’t just “more knowledge.”

It was a deeper capacity to hold complexity
tenderness, desire, grief, and power
without needing to fix, rush, or soften the truth.

Being invited back to serve as a
Guardian of Eros feels like a full-circle moment.
Out of more than 125 applicants, I’m deeply grateful to have been selected to support the 2026 cohort, #not as a teacher, but as a steward and support mentor #tending the relational field that makes this work so transformative.

There’s something quiet and powerful about #returning to a place that changed you and helping others feel safe enough to be changed, too.

Who here in my audience is a VITA Coach or Student?

I WAS MADE FOR THIS.

Something happens when you actually let yourself truly desire your dreams, and claim it with complete surrender. **And have done the work to hold it.**

I can see that now.

My reality mirrored back to me the truth.

"You were made for this, Kate."

I declared this desire, to apply for well known sex, love, and relationship coaching certification, and surrendered to God. Full heartedly felt this, trusting, at peace and excited nervous for the pathway to unfold for me with each step I take, trusting the timing would unfold naturally with ease.

God provided, and made this pathway possible NOW.

I never thought this would be my path, to become a sex coach, and yet it makes so much fucking sense. Eeeeeeeeeee!

To my entire being, it feels like home, and yet I'm nervous excited for the woman I'll grow into.

To own my power even more.

But more than anything,
To be a sister alongside women, that I never had,
to mirror them their beauty in totality - their body, their vulva, of their sexual expression.

To become grounded fully in their power thru pleasure, as pleasure has been such a profound tool to heal my nervous system and ground my power.

To guide women thru somatic practices, yoni and breast massage, and expanding their minds of what pleasure and confidence can look like for the sex goddess that exists within us all.

I'm a fuck YES to it all.

I know I'm going to meet my own deeper blocks to my pleasure, pain, and anxiety, shit I already am in it. But I'm here for it.

I'm here for

My own transformations to unfold.
To become the receiver first, the student.

To nourish the depths of my body and soul, to bear fertile soil for my pleasure.

Cuz this bad bitch gunna reap her harvest.
Shits gunna get hot 🔥 🥵 🐦‍🔥

2025 Mastering the madness.

THE GRIND I balanced a 30-hour study week in Tantra & Science (VITA 1 year long program) with my web design hustle, leveling up @madpool_agency with new artists, and a part-time job at the best coworking space.

THE SACRIFICE I managed exactly one week off. I had to make heavy sacrifices. But sometimes, isolation and investing strictly in yourself is exactly what is needed.

THE REVELATION I finally found home. I met new artists and felt normal surrounded by like-minded people. Through all the internal shifts, the love for music and digging never faded. It anchored me.

THE DROP I cut the safety net. I quit the job to build a life with my own rules and structure.

To my friends, the global sisterhood of VITA, and every new soul who fueled this transformation: thank you.
It was intense, but worth the f*cking ride.

“Give yourself permission to indulge in the life long learning of your own pleasure and desire.” 🙌🏽🔥📚 YESSS! And if you want to learn, evolve, & grow as a lover, a partner, and er❤️tic being,

then you have to find really good teachers. 🤓

Like @faithlaux 💗

and myself !!

📚📚📚

I wrote in my newsletter yesterday about the frustration I feel as a Teacher of Sacred Intimacy,

when our world is emphasizing AI bot 🤖 girls over real live relationships,

and 🦄s for couples on apps instead of hiring a Coach to help cultivate deeper intimacy between 2 humans,

Let’s be clear:

I am not a Unicorn.

I am a Tantric Facilitator, Intimacy Coach and Somatic Sexologist.

If you want to learn new ways to connect with you partner,

You aren’t going to learn,

unless you show up with dedication to study with an accredited teacher.

Both @faithlaux and I studied with Layla Martin in the @vitamethod certification because we

a) are dorks 🤓 who are devoted to life long learning 📚

b) are now dedicated to teaching others

about the power of pleasure,

as a healing modality and
cheat code on loving & living your life fully! 💗🔥👑

I was choosing to show up on this platform as an Eros Priestess 🥀 for the last 4 years,

and after having men not understand the medicine, the potency and profundity of the sacred work that I do,

I have shifted into the Tantrik Teacher mode,

so that humans who are magnetized to my work understand that

I am here to Teach.

As a Tantrika, I am a teacher and practitioner of the ancient Temple Arts and embodied esoteric traditions that guides humans onto a path towards Enlightenment via the body.

The students have appeared.

And I am grateful 🙏🏽🥀💗

🌹This past week I was held by priestesses in a way that words barely touch.

🌹For hours, I was witnessed in my sacredness. Nothing to fix, nothing to perform-just to be in my grief, in my
aliveness, in my humanity.

🌹I was sung to, anointed, and carried back into life through touch, prayer, and presence. It was a kind of resuscitation-not of my body, but of my spirit.

🌹This is what I know to be true: in the West, we do not have rituals and processes deep enough to hold the immensity of grief, heartbreak, or initiation.

🌹We are left to navigate it alone, when what our souls crave is to be met, seen and held in love…..in an embodied way and in community.

🌹I feel so blessed that my work in the world is to create spaces-for grief, for ecstasy, for the rawness of the human experience. Spaces where we can be witnessed and alchemize the pain and beauty of being alive.
Because true healing is not about moving on.

🌹It’s about being held long enough to be brought back to life.

🌹This ritual and the support I received helped me have the strength to choose to go to Egypt like I had planned. Traveling to @anni_daulter and crew waiting for me in Cairo now. 🙏

Deep bow to the Queens who held me so beautifully. @thelaylamartin @priestesspresence @miamagik @talktantratome @templeofloha @annaruthhalll

Thank you to my @vitamethod sisters and connection siblings who have been cheering me on every day.

Thank you to all my Richmond friends who have reached out to me and our family and know that you can ring our doorbell anytime.

Nearly a year on VITA sex, love and relationship coaching certification @vitamethod, alongside my own deep dive into tantra and kundalini energy, has completely rewired how I see intimacy and connection ✨

This hasn’t been easy work. I’ve sat with uncomfortable truths about myself, faced shadows I’d been avoiding, and pushed through resistance that felt overwhelming at times. But the transformation has been worth every difficult moment 🔥

I thought this journey would simply deepen what I already knew about myself. Instead, it awakened parts of me that are fierce, unapologetic, and hungry for experiences I’d never allowed myself to want.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to this work - what completely transforms one person might create subtle shifts for another. I want to share my biggest insights with you, the ones that changed everything for me 🌹

Swipe through to see what a year of committed inner work has taught me about intimacy, power, and what it really means to embody your sexuality.

I’d love to hear from you - how has your own inner work influenced your life this past year? What surprised you most about your own journey?

Spring and Summer 2025
(15 pictures got deleted idk why 😅)
Oh how you have showered me with magic, power, alignment, and so many women that inspire me.

Moving in to my new apartment that I had envisioned for a long time and creating a home that I am obsessed with. ❤️

Choosing to slow down and cherish how much more present I can be with my myself and Leila (best daughter ever) and Brody (best dog ever).❤️

Dancing through all of it. Anger, grief, uncertainty, self doubt somehow melts away when I dance and it alchemizes in to all kinds of love. ❤️

2 insanely powerful retreats where I met so many woman who inspire me, get me, encouraged me. Places where we can meet ourselves and others in the most raw, authentic, and powerful forms and celebrating the hell out of each other. ❤️

So much love ❤️
The photographers, facilitators, women behind the magic are tagged. Thank you. I love you!

🌻life itself is grace🌻

Had a beautiful moment yesterday with a peer from @vitamethod
- it always blows my mind what I learn from holding space for someone
- “you’re worth all of it just by being born, the pain is life… you’re here to expert life, all of it …. the hard parts, the suffering- that was never a punishment”

So beautiful witnessing someone’s process
So beautiful being trusted so deeply
So beautiful letting life move through me in service of another

One of my teachers approaches coaching as a spiritual practise and I couldn’t agree more

Being reminded of a magical time in Costa Rica earlier this year with @thelaylamartin - welcoming it all … bliss and pain in such a nourishing container of sisters

💛here to serve here to learn…
💛love & gratitude
