“…and also: Holding Space to Heal Shame”

“What not why. What do I need, not why do I feel this way..already that puts you into a place of compassion because you’re meeting your own needs. You’re nurturing yourself.” - Dr. Rose Schlaff

Let’s get messy. Why? Because healing isn’t about becoming perfect, nor is life sequential and tidy. Our colonized mind + bodies have been programmed into dissonance so we always feel doubtful + unworthy. What if we didn’t run from or suppress the messiness. What if we embraced ourselves even in our distress? And maybe, just maybe, pleasure can become the grace in the healing process that guides you through it all.

In this candid conversation you’ll:

• Learn how to give yourself permission to release yourself from the construct of the ‘binary’

• Learn how to feel good (or neutral) even in the mess

• Develop the awareness that you, Beloved, are a spectrum of being

May You Feel Empowered!

After receiving her Doctorate in Physical Therapy, Dr. Rose chose to continue talking about sensitive topics by specializing in pelvic and sexual health. After struggling with her own health she felt betrayed by her body and felt called to dive deeper to understand what was going on.

Through her own healing journey filled with tons of research, training, and her own support system of coaches and clinicians she came to realize that when something isn’t working well in your body or in your life, that is an invitation for intimacy. It is an opportunity to "peel the onion," get quiet and listen to that inner wisdom inside of ourselves.

That’s how Dr. Rose ended up here, helping other women "peel the onion," overcome barriers to intimacy and reclaim fun, fearless pleasure in and out of the bedroom at bewellwithrose.com or on IG @bewellwithrose.
