And is a Vietnamese American women's sexual empowerment coach whose work centers on pleasure as a liberatory practice and fuel for empowerment. She teaches women how to love their bodies to see sexuality as sacred.

And to channel orgasmic pleasure into better relationships, career leadership and self love. And in our conversation together we have the opportunity to explore pleasure and sexuality. As [00:02:00] a way to honor ourselves and to be of highest service. And so a few of the things that we explore in today's episode are pleasure and sexuality as a pathway to actually be able to connect with source and the divine.

We also talk about and signature 5% pleasure rule. We explore how to drop out of the mind and live more in our bodies and our five senses. And, and share some tips about how to be well-resourced in our pleasure. As a way to really support our creativity in birth, new creations. So this was such a fun interview for me to be a part of. I remember just how great it felt to be.

In ANZ energy, and I'm super excited to be able to share this conversation with you all. If you are vibing with Ann's energy and you really enjoy this episode, I also wanted to let you all know that Ann has a free 90 minute [00:03:00] play shop. That's coming up next week. It's called the art of sensual self care.

And it's designed to support you with using sensuality as a practice for healing and self nourishment.

That play shop is coming up on Tuesday, January 24th. At 4:00 PM, P S T 7:00 PM E S T. And the recording will be sent out to all registrants, even if you aren't able to attend lives.

And we will definitely include the signup link in the show notes so that there's easy access for all who want to sign up and join.

I am just so inspired by the way that and shows up on social media, the way that she connects with her clients and her community members and shares about just some of the incredible transformation that the women in her community have experienced.

I actually was first introduced to Ann through my business coach Shereen sun, [00:04:00] who is, have guest in season one. And. Shereen organized a couple of virtual retreats where, and was able to come in and be a guest teacher and lead us through some guided pleasure practices that were just so much fun. And so nourishing.

And so if you are in any way, really resonating with what Anna sharing in today's episode, I would love to encourage you to first follow her on Instagram. Second, sign up for her free play shop. That's coming up and explore the offerings that she has to share.

It is one of my intentions for 2023 to. Deepen my relationship with pleasure and sensuality and building more consistent rituals and practices around that and recreating this episode with Anne was just such great fuel and inspiration for that.
