Testimonials:

"With how inaccessible therapy is in New Zealand, and how few role models we’ve had in our lives for connective, resolution based conversations… this workshop is needed" -Staish

"Traeh is an exceptional facilitator, curating a rare opportunity to feel completely safe while nudging comfort zones that in the way that personal growth requires. She expertly guided the room through helpful exercises which were clearly explained, done at our own pace, and which resulted in helpful insights. Ngā mihi nui, I am looking forward to the next one!" -Elle

"The evening was fantastic, and it was exactly, if not more than, what I expected. Each part was carefully crafted, and I walked away feeling more connected. See you at the next two workshops."-Sven

Ready to deepen your capacity for intimacy—in your relationships, your community, and with yourself?

Intimate Conversations is an embodied, talk-based workshop exploring emotional expression, sexual communication, and the nuances of authentic connection. Whether you’re new to this work or returning to explore deeper layers, this space invites you to meet yourself—and others—with curiosity, courage, and care. Through facilitated practices rooted in consent, reflection, and nervous system awareness, we’ll co-create a safe, supportive space for insight, expression, and growth.

In this 2-hour workshop, you’ll:
• Explore communication tools through 1:1 and small group exercises
• Practice consent-based interactions and space-holding
• Build safety for vulnerable conversations around emotions and sexuality
• Expand your capacity to feel seen, heard, and met
• Connect meaningfully—with others and with yourself

This is a non-touch, talk-based space, with gentle facilitation and full permission to participate at your own pace. You’re welcome exactly as you are—nervous system jitters and all.

Who it’s for:
This space is for anyone—across the gender spectrum—who’s curious about emotional intimacy, better communication, and navigating sexuality with more awareness. Whether you’re new to this work, exploring non-monogamy, part of the queer community, or just looking for deeper ways to connect, you’re warmly welcome.Bring your full self, your curiosity, and your journal. We’ll meet each other there.
