Dare to Desire: Own What You Want Most
Unlock life’s possibilities through a transformative 4-week journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
Right now, whether you admit it to yourself or not — there is something scary and vulnerable you want that you have not allowed yourself to fully want.
Maybe it's something you want in your work, your life's purpose, or your relationship to money. Maybe it's something you want in your intimate partnership or your sex life. Or maybe it's something in how you relate to your family, community, or the rest of the world.
Take a moment. What’s the ONE thing, that if you let yourself truly want and have — even if it feels vulnerable and scary — would make a significant impact on your life?
And if nothing comes to mind, maybe your ONE thing is actually to have a clear knowing of what you truly want in life.
Bring that ONE thing to mind, take a deep breath, and let yourself experience even just 1% of what life could be like if you had that ONE thing.
What might be possible if you could transform your relationship to just that ONE desire?
I'm excited for you to find out. Today, I’m announcing the official opening of registration for the Fall cohort of our 4-week Mastering Desire experience, running from August 13th to September 10th, 2024.

A Glimpse into Your Transformative Journey
Mastering Desire isn't just a course — it's a transformative journey of empowerment, guided by myself and a dear friend and master coach Katara.
Picture yourself at the beginning of this transformative journey.
You're sitting in a cozy, dimly lit room, a soft blanket draped over your shoulders. The air is filled with the gentle scent of lavender, helping you feel calm and centered. As you close your eyes, you take a deep breath, feeling the rise and fall of your chest.
Fellow explorers gather around you, all about to embark on a shared journey together. By the end of the journey, these strangers will feel like close friends — an intimate bond forged through walking through the fires of desire together.
Over the next four weeks, you'll experience:
Week 1: Connecting with Your Soul's Deepest Desires
You feel a mix of excitement and trepidation as you begin to explore your deepest desires. Your heart races slightly as you uncover wants you've kept hidden, even from yourself. As you dig deeper, you might feel a lump in your throat or a flutter in your stomach — signs that you're touching on something truly meaningful.
Gradually, a warm sensation spreads through your body as you connect with how it would feel to have these desires met. It's like stepping into a sun-drenched meadow after a long, cold winter. You taste the sweetness of possibility on your tongue and feel a tingling energy coursing through your limbs.
A latent life force and an energy inside you awakens that you didn’t even know existed. It’s simultaneously invigorating and scary. You wonder where this vitality has been all your life.
Week 2: Expanding Your Emotional Capacity
As you delve deeper, intense emotions bubble to the surface. You might feel a heaviness in your chest as shame or guilt arise, or a tightness in your jaw as frustration emerges. Fear might manifest as a coldness in your belly. But instead of pushing these feelings away, you learn to sit with them, to feel them fully, to welcome them.
These are the emotions that tend to lead people to either suppress their desires to avoid the intense sensations, or to cling tightly to the desires because they want the intensity to be over. But the emotions actually hold intelligence — and they can guide us to what’s truly meaningful in our lives.
Through various practices, you start to experience these emotions as waves washing over you. You might engage in gentle movement, feeling the sensations shift and change in your body. As you expand your capacity, it's like your emotional container is growing, becoming more spacious and resilient.
As your container expands, so does your capacity to be with the deepest and most vulnerable desires in your life. And so does your capacity to harness your emotions to support you in making your deepest desires a reality.
Week 3: Owning Your Desires
In a circle of supportive faces and soft and illuminating kind eyes, you begin to voice your desires. Your voice might quiver at first, but as you continue, it grows stronger. You feel a warmth spreading through your chest as you're met with nods of understanding and encouraging smiles.
The act of claiming your desires out loud sends a shiver down your spine — it's both terrifying and exhilarating. You might feel your posture straighten, your shoulders relaxing as you shed the weight of hiding these parts of yourself.
You hear your fellow explorers cheering you on, celebrating you. The weight of the collective fear and apprehension around not being able to have what you want starts to dissolve.
You continue to expand your capacity to honor your desires. Being witnessed by the group becomes a hero’s initiation, as you come into fuller alignment with who you truly are and what you truly want.
Week 4: Taking Courageous Action
In this final week, you're standing at the edge of a metaphorical cliff, heart pounding, palms slightly sweaty. But you're not alone — you feel the presence of your supportive community behind you, their energy bolstering your courage. You feel championed.
As you take that step forward into creating the life you want, you feel a rush of exhilaration. It's like diving into cool, refreshing water on a hot day – shocking at first, but then invigorating and life-affirming. You emerge feeling more alive than ever, tingling with new possibilities and pride in your bravery.
Throughout this journey, you've moved from tentative whispers to bold declarations, from constriction to expansion, from hiding to being fully seen.
The promise of life-changing impact isn't just a concept anymore – you can feel it in your bones. People reflect the new light they see in your eyes. And you can taste it in the sweetness of your newfound freedom to desire and your empowerment to pursue what truly matters to you.
Real Results from Real People
Last February, we guided an intimate group of 10 brave souls through the first cohort of this transformative journey. Here are some of the shifts they’ve experienced.
Anthony Lee-Warner, a facilitator and coach living in Spain, was feeling hopeless and lost. Through the course, he discovered a newfound sense of purpose and direction in his life by re-connecting with his desire:
Hiske Van Den Wouwer, a mother, facilitator, and bodyworker, discovered a new relationship to her emotions and took radical steps toward creating a more fulfilling romantic life:
“This course gave me inner freedom. My emotions don’t direct my actions anymore. They are just indicators that tell me things want to be seen.
I’m able to follow my body and find the hidden treasures. I have a choice now. I can play with that choice, and that is a great gift. There is nothing more empowering than empowering yourself.”
★★★★★
Ryan Andrade, a father of 4 and a systems architect at the startup Wayve, found a new way to bring his full self and heart to his work and his family:
“I suffer from a tendency towards perfectionism and have leaned into being a more heart-centered person. This course accelerated and amplified that for me.
I am now feeling as much as thinking and embodying the experiences of desire and fear. I align more of my energy with actions that make my heart sing and make me feel more alive.”
★★★★★
There’s no desire too big or too small for this course, as long as it’s something meaningful to you.
We’re here to guide you through the journey, based on our own hard-earned lessons. And with the support of a loving community, you’ll be championed to take beautifully empowered actions to make those desires a reality in your life.
The transformative impacts from previous explorers of this journey have spanned all areas of life — ranging from finding more purpose in life, creating a more abundant sex life, creating more freedom in intimate partnership, bringing a more loving balance to work and family, developing more secure attachment to money, and more.
