The first thread: where the body begins to speak

After guiding many women trough 1:1 sessions, there is a pattern I continue to witness - quiet, tender and deeply human.

She comes to the session unsure how to feel herself.
There’s a disconnection from her body, a fogginess around her desires.
She struggles to sense her own boundaries—let alone voice them.

During our intake session, I always ask a few gentle questions about her relationship with her body and her sensuality.
And so often, her story traces back to a single moment: an early experience that felt too much, too fast, or simply not safe.

That first experience becomes an imprint.
It weaves the first thread of how she comes to know herself in a sensual, embodied way.

If that thread was woven through pain, confusion, or shame—it leaves a lasting mark. It shapes how she relates to her body, to pleasure, to intimacy.
She may carry that silence for years, believing it’s normal to feel numb, to disconnect, to override her own needs.

But here’s what I’ve seen, again and again:
That thread can be rewoven.

The body remembers—but it also responds.
To slowness. To presence. To care.
Healing doesn’t happen overnight, but it does happen. I’ve witnessed it. And it is one of the most sacred things I’ve ever held space for.

Let us bring more awareness to this.
Let us speak to our daughters, our sisters, our younger selves:

Your body is sacred.
You don’t need to give it away to feel loved.
You don’t need to use it to be seen or chosen.

You are already worthy.
You already belong.
Your body is yours. Always.
