Hello, I'm Simone

A self-proclaimed 'conscious hedonist.'

I'm all about squeezing the most out of life, whilst being authentic and loving with ourselves, our community and our planet. What lights me up is working with people. What brings us joy? What gets in the way of connection? How we can make the most of this 'one wild and precious life'?

My Philosophy
Philosophy

It's not really about sex...

Dance. Business. Sport. Nature. Meditation. Festivals. They're all ways to meet parts of ourselves.

My work draws on lessons from all of these... using sex, intimacy and our closest relationships as a doorway to our richest, most connected life.

This work is about:

  • Feeling at home in your body
  • Understanding and communicating your desires
  • Deepening intimacy - with others, and with life
  • Meeting ourselves and others with curiosity rather than shame
  • Feeling empowered to explore, play and grow
  • Experiencing more connection, pleasure and joy
Simone
“After more than a decade in the world of business, I realised that my favourite way to work with people was on the topics of sex, intimacy and relationships. And it turns out, there's a decent amount of overlap between running a workshop for private equity CEOs and running a BDSM workshop at Burning Man!”

Coaching, Community & Workshops

Today, my work lives at the intersection of the erotic and the everyday - helping people reconnect with their bodies, desires, and authentic expression - with equal parts play and depth.

Sex Club

Sex Club community

So many women I've talked to about 'Sex Club' - a small women's group I run - have asked to be part of it. It's so hard to say no, I want to talk about sex with all these incredible women!

I'm excited to launch a more inclusive format that allows us to build community around sex and intimacy - a place to learn, share, and play together. It will be a monthly gathering with a mix of discussion, sharing, and workshop activities. Different theme each month.

Workshops & Retreats

Workshops and retreats

I love group work - learning in an immersive container together is incredibly powerful. From half-day introductions to multi-day deep dives into power, presence, and play.

Upcoming - Free

Intro to Power Play #3: Embodying Your Power

Tuesday, April 14, 2026 · 6:00-7:00 PM Pacific · Online via Zoom · Free

The third in our free webinar series for curious, thoughtful adults who want an intelligent, grounded introduction to power exchange - without pressure, performance, or overwhelm.

In this session we explore archetypes - the different ways dominance and surrender can be expressed, and what resonates for you. We'll move from knowing what you want to beginning to embody it, with experiential exercises and live demos so you can really feel into what lights you up.

Whether you attended the first two webinars or this is your entry point, you're welcome here. Expect authentic conversation, embodied exercises, practical tools, and open discussion about desires, fears, and curiosity.

Facilitated by Simone & Tyler

Past Workshop

Power, Presence & Play - 3-Day Workshop

February 20-22, 2026 · Studio Allegory, Vancouver · $900-$1,050 CAD

A three-day experiential deep dive into conscious power exchange, trust, and intimacy. Participants explored the foundations of consensual power exchange as a practice of presence and attunement - discovering and experimenting with dominant and submissive energies as archetypes, not fixed identities.

The workshop covered ethical power, surrender as grounded receptivity, negotiation and boundaries, and cultivating deeper capacity for intimacy, play, and authentic expression. Designed for people who had already done meaningful personal or relational work and felt ready to engage with power in a sex-positive space.

Facilitated by Simone, Carlin Gettliffe & Beth Mongold

Past Workshop

Lead & Follow: An Erotic Exploration of Power Dynamics

January 25, 2026 · West Point Grey, Vancouver · By donation ($35-$50)

An introductory afternoon exploring D/s dynamics as an art of lead and follow, of artist and muse, of command and surrender. Through guided exercises and partnered practices, participants discovered what it feels like to step fully into their power as a leader - and what it feels like to melt open in surrender.

The workshop covered foundations of communication, consent, negotiation, and safety - then playful experimentation with different archetypes and energies. Open to all genders, orientations, and experience levels.

About Me

A bridge between worlds

I've always enjoyed having my feet in different worlds. On one side I was always the 'good girl' and A student - I loved school, studied Economics at Oxford University and went straight into the rat race of strategy consulting then private equity in London. And then there are many other sides - the outdoor adventurer, the hippie, the raver, the attention seeker, the slut - maybe not all in the way you assume!

I'm now a sex, intimacy and relationship coach and facilitator. I've trained with Somatica and completed the Urban Tantra professional training with Barbara Carrellas.

My Why

This work is world changing

I used to imagine my purpose would lie in something like sustainability, regenerative business or healthcare - something that felt obviously world-changing. But life has a funny way of revealing where we're truly called.

I believe that if we really allow ourselves to embrace intimacy and connection we start living more authentically and sustainably. When we can access our own inner pleasure we don't need to buy as much stuff just to fill the void. When we truly love ourselves, we can also love others and our planet and treat them all with care and respect.

I also love being a bridge between worlds - whether that's introducing people who'd never think of attending a tantra workshop to these practices in a language they understand, or just helping people shed shame and embrace all parts of themselves. For me, this work is about joy, about being fully alive, and about creating a more loving and connected world, one intimate conversation at a time.
