"Unravelling Peak Performance". Sexuality and Vulnerability: A man’s essential guide to the mystery of sexuality, and to reclaiming his open heart. (August 2020)
In this 4-part series we uncover the lies you’ve been told about your sexuality and I reveal to you how shifting your sexual mindset can revolutionise your relationships and invite you and your partner into increased intimacy, pleasure and enjoyment in your lives.
We will journey together for 4 weeks, across 4 key cornerstones of psychosexual programming, equipping you to better understand your body, your sexual behaviour and how you can take the quality of your sexual and intimate experiences to the next level, reducing the pressure you place on yourself and inviting sexual partners into greater agency and sexual empowerment.

This programme is for you if:
- You identify as male or male-bodied.
- You are looking for change and improvement in your life in relation to sexuality, intimacy and the quality of your physical relationships.
- You are willing to bring yourself into a group healing environment to create change in the way you relate to your sexuality.
- You are open to the idea that by reclaiming your vulnerability during the most intimate, shared expression of yourself, that you set deep physiological imprints for your body, that allow it to begin to soften , whilst opening space for real connection in your relationships inside and outside the bedroom.
- You are open to the concept that you are a changeable and complex being, made up of multiple parts.
- You are open to the possibility that parts of you came online and took shape during your developmental and adult experiences and that they now organise themselves around your sexual expression in a way that attempts to keep you feeling safe and powerful.
- You are willing to get to know these parts of yourself and support them to relax or expand in order that you might have new experiences of your sexuality.
- You are ready to leave self-criticism and shame behind and embrace a loving connection to yourself and to those who want to love you and give you pleasure.
- You believe that the increasing sexual consciousness of men and women has a critical role in the world and are willing to be a part of a group of people bravely stepping into personal development in an area most shy away from looking at.
- You are willing to acknowledge me in my role as your guide in this territory as being both human and imperfect and to retain ownership for developing your own thoughts, feelings and truth in regards your personal sexuality, how you chose to express yourself and the decisions you make in your relationships.
Note: you do not need to have been raised as male or identify as heterosexual to take part in this programme, however it is designed to be most helpful for persons who have been raised male and intend, or have, some experience of partnering sexually with women.
No prior personal development experience or therapeutic experience is needed. Just an open mind and a willing heart. You will be welcomed and held safe as the sacred being that you are.
