Strength in Softness

In a world that often feels deeply disconnected and lacking in humanity, touch starvation has become a silent epidemic. People crave physical connection.

Something as simple as a hug, a hand on the shoulder, or even a simple pat on the back is often silently avoided. Society has increasingly isolated us, both physically and emotionally.

Alongside this, vulnerability has been conditioned as a weakness, a flaw to hide behind stoic masks or curated personas. Especially for men. We’re taught to toughen up, to shield our hearts, as if exposing our true selves is a liability rather than a strength. The result is a population aching for intimacy and authenticity, yet too afraid to reach for it, trapped in a cycle of longing and restraint. The resulting feelings are often anger, depression, anxiety, sadness and denial of self.

I see it very differently. I am blessed to have sought out a community that thrives on vulnerability and to have ventured deep into my own wounding to find healing and resolution to this pain and shame I once carried. It was difficult work, but worth every ounce of discomfort to be here now.

I absolutely adore touch and vulnerability and feel it's a deeply human thing to be able to experience giving and receiving both. I see it as a profound act of courage and healing to step into this type of space when someone has actively been raised to see these base human needs as a "weakness".

I feel there is incredible powerful in holding someone close to me, being entirely present with them, allowing them to cry in my arms or allowing them a moment of raw, honest openness. These elements of being human are innate, and tapping into them can allow us to stitch back together when we feel disconnected and alone. Just another reason why I love my work so much!

Offering people varying types of touch, affection, and a safe space to bare their souls is an absolute privilege. I get to witness hearts unfold, walls crumble, and the essence of someone to come forward safely. I am permitted to be the holder of sacred space, to offer the ability to allow someone to be seen, held, adored and desired.

I truly believe it is not a weakness, it’s the bravest, most beautiful thing we can do. I’m honored to be chosen to help make it possible, so thank you for those who have chosen me to step into this role.

If this resonates with you, please reach out. I'm right here.
