Last Thursday was the very exciting and anticipated launch of my business and my dream A Juicy Life Sexual Health Education. It took a lot of planning, exciting and stressful anticipation and so many great and supportive friends, a business coach and a business consultant. Whew! It was quite a team and I couldn’t have done it without them.

The event was held on International Women’s Day at my friend’s beautiful home in Edgemont Village, North Vancouver. Guests were greeted with a cranberry punch and an array of colours, textures, sounds and a few unexpected guests…the stuffies…I call them. If you come to a future event you’ll see what I mean! 45 minutes into our evening, with a room packed full of incredible friends and inquiring minds, I offered the why’s, how’s and what’s of A Juicy Life, comforted in the knowledge that we were all there for the same reason, to create an incredible community of women who were free to talk about sexuality whether it be health or pleasure based. No taboos, no judgment, just a sharing of information. I was so thrilled that everyone appeared to be enjoying themselves and was comfortable enough to ask a milieu of questions, very affirming for me and the vision of A Juicy Life.

So looking forward, I will continue to offer or host a variety of Light My Fire events, big or small, for 100’s or for 2. Everyone’s idea of a perfect gathering is different. I can shape my lessons, conversations, women’s circles, events into what you need. The common thread being a comfortable and safe space to speak candidly about your sexual health. So last Thursday, as the butterflies fell away after about 10 minutes of speaking they were replaced by goosebumps. It’s the goosebumps that remind me how fortunate I am to be surrounded by such talented, incredible and powerful women! So watch out for upcoming events!
