A LOVE LETTER FROM ME TO YOU

Awakening Pathways to Pleasure is a love letter from me to you. Why? Because I have stood where you now stand, I have felt that loss of the woman I once knew, I’ve seen my passion drift away. 

As I journeyed the traditional path of womanhood being all the things I thought were expected of me – the perfect mother, dutiful wife, pleasing and saying yes when I really meant no, I began to push down and ignore my own desires. I turned away from the things that gave me pleasure. Then menopause came along, my libido switched off, my body changed and I lost my confidence as the sensual and sexual woman I once knew. Pleasure for pleasure sake felt frivolous, superficial – it just didn’t matter.  

I felt numb for so many years while going through perimenopause – residing in the in-between place of not knowing who I was or who I was becoming. I was just going through the motions when it came to intimacy. Believe me numbness and intimacy don’t make good bedfellows – it’s no fun for anyone! 

The truth is we’re wired for pleasure… so if we get off track, disconnect we can gently find our way back home to our bodies, be able to stay there and experience meaningful and lasting change. We can find our way back to pleasure and experience more joy, aliveness and creativity in the second half of life. I know because I am living this now!   

I am a Certified Women’s Empowerment and Sexuality Coach with over 15 years experience guiding women to reconnect with their bodies, holding a safe space for self-exploration, self-knowing and self-trust. I have personally experienced how transformative the somatic based practices I share with you in this course can be for peeling away layers of tension, stress and returning to the woman I was always meant to be. 

Now at 56 years young and 5 years postmenopausal I feel at home in my skin, I accept and appreciate my body and recognise myself as a sensual and sexual being, not the 20-30 or even 40-year-old version. But the 56-year-old version who owns her pleasure, power and purpose and can communicate my desires from a place of truth and love.

TESTIMONIALS

Before I started this course I was sure I didn’t have time for ‘pleasure’. In fact the word, very rarely even featured in my vocabulary! However, this extraordinary course created by Gabriella changed that, and subsequently transformed my life. I have never felt comfortable talking about sex openly with men or women, and the biggest shift from me from this was a new-found confidence to do this in a way that felt easy and authentic. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to feel a greater connection to themselves or a partner, or who wants to feel more confident and knowledgeable about sex and pleasure.
— 🍓 Jess Rad, Founder, The WomenHood
My relationship to pleasure is now different from taking this course…I prioritise it. I have eliminated a lot of shame. I found it incredibly liberating to be able to discuss topics which have been seen as taboo in society for such a long time. Taking this course inspired me to speak openly with friends, initiate conversations with my partner, focus on the idea of pleasure and how to prioritise it in our lives; it is our life force and when I am thinking about it and considering it I feel alive and in tune with myself.
— 🍓 Maria
One of the biggest transformation from taking APP has been Telling my partner that we needed to try new things because I had been faking orgasms for a few years (together 16) and that is no good for ANYONE! We have tried new things and I can confirm that I am not faking them anymore! I most enjoyed the conversations, hearing the stories of other women, personal journeys and sharing insights. I would tell anyone considering the course to absolutely go for it and don’t hold back. We all secretly wish that we could be as honest and open as this all the time and here is a space where that is possible, how wonderful! The course highlighted that human connection is absolutely everything and communicating about our life force is a very powerful thing!
— 🍓 Clara
I took this course because I was ready to try something new and thought this would be a wonderful exploration of self-discovery. What feels different now since taking the course is that pleasure is important for my wellbeing, whether it’s a simple walk in nature, dancing to my favourite song, listening to what my body needs, physical touch. It’s embracing things that bring me joy. Being able to voice to my partner what gives me pleasure and vice versa has cemented a healthier marriage and sex life too!
— 🍓 Heather
The biggest transformation for me since taking this course has been… So much! I have become more confident with an ‘own your power’ vibe! I’m nicer to myself in terms of body positivity, more confident ‘in the bedroom’, and make sure that I make time for breath work from the exercises taught by Gabriella. I’m open to trying new things (some completely out of my comfort zone) whilst giving my energy a boost with things that light me up. I frequently engage in conversation with friends and family about the importance of pleasure, both physically and emotionally.
— 🍓 Rachelle
Gabriella is an incredible teacher/guide - with deep knowledge, empathetic and open mannerism, encouraging but never requiring engagement which leads to transformation for others. This course opened me to exploring, prioritising my own pleasure throughout my life. An understanding that this will make me a better and more fulfilled person for myself and others. I highly recommend anyone interested in inviting more pleasure into their lives to embrace the opportunity.
— 🍓 Lani
Gabriella really helped me orient towards my growing curiosity in my sexuality, rather than the lack that I had been feeling for a long time, which changed my lens of how I related to myself and my sexuality in a deeply healing way. I highly recommend anyone interested in diving deeper into this deeply personal journey to do so, Gabriella will help unlock doors and facilitate this vulnerable but fun territory in a safe and loving way.
— 🍓 Melanie
I would tell anyone considering the course to Go for it! You will learn and experience so much about what pleasure is and should be for a woman, especially in midlife. It’s a wonderful space for self-discovery, self-love and discussion. Thank you Gabriella for the wonderful opportunity. Awakening Pathways to Pleasure should be on every woman’s bucket list!
