The Pleasure Atelier was born from a simple question:
Why are so many successful women starving for something they cannot name?
They've mastered responsibility, learned how to care for others, and are experts at carrying the weight.
What they haven't been taught is how to remain connected to themselves and fully alive while doing it.
My work explores that missing piece.
As a certified sexuality educator and intimacy coach, I create spaces where:
- Women can slow down enough to hear their own desires again.
- Pleasure is treated as intelligence.
- Intimacy becomes a pathway back to vitality.
- The goal is not self-improvement, but self-relationship.
This journey is about remembering the woman who was there before the world taught her to disconnect.

Please Note: Due to my professional role with EOB, I am unable to work with individuals with whom I have a formal relationship through that organization.
That said, I always enjoy connecting with people. If our paths cross through EOB, please don't hesitate to say hello, ask a question, or start a conversation. While I may not be able to serve as your coach, I'm always happy to chat and point you toward resources that may be helpful.
For years, I believed practice was a path to perfection and that discipline and effort would lead me to the version of myself I was meant to be for my family, work, and community.
But I began to see how that pursuit pulls so many of us away from ourselves. We become masters of achievement, fluent in holding it all together, yet quietly disconnected from what feels alive.
What I’ve learned is that our power and impact don't come from more control or discipline. It comes from coherence - from learning to hold the nuance and tension of the world while returning to what nourishes us.
Here's what's real: your sexuality was never meant to be another task. Your sexuality is an intelligent source of creativity, regenerative energy, and power. It's for you.
My work is devoted to those who lead with grace and give without measure. It's an invitation to practice pleasure as the most refined expression of personal power and collective love.
Power & Play is the refusal to accept the old binaries that pit joy against strength, softness against influence, or desire against discipline. Here, we learn to hold tension with surrender, hunger with restraint, and freedom with mutuality.
SOME kind WORDS
“
Working with Shauna has inspired me to incorporate this work into my business and personal life, as showing up authentically and with healthy boundaries helps both work better. What happens at home, happens at work, and vice versa. I highly recommend [Shauna] for any of you Type A ladies.
I started coaching with Shauna because I wanted to figure out what I liked in the bedroom. Yes, I learned that, but I also feel like I met myself for the first time. I'm walking away with a stronger connection to self and the ability to articulate my wants and needs.
I've always felt super uncomfortable talking about sex, even with my friends and partners. Shauna helped me feel so safe and allowed me to go at my own pace.
I get it now. Since working with Shauna I see and feel everything so differently. Instead of feeling like another "to-do", sex now feels like my power source.
