Product Information

I see it as my job to give people permission and possibilities. And the course is an invitation to join Urban Tantra ® as a community and ever evolving practice.

Please note: To keep this work sustainable for me, I evaluate your desires against my “yes” and work with clients on a case-by-case basis. Can you be happy with this situation for the foreseeable future? When you say you fear your feelings will require you to speak up, it sounds like the answer is no.

Sleepover at each other’s houses. Go to movies. He listens to and remembers everything I’ve ever said. He’s one of the kindest men I’ve ever met. He’s one of the best people in our friend group. It’s the best sex of my life. I find myself falling in love with him, as he’s been more of a supportive partner to me than men I’ve been in an actual relationship with for years.
