Valentine’s Day doesn’t create intimacy. It exposes what’s already there.
No amount of roses, candles and chocolate will repair a cracked foundation or revive a flame that’s been quietly suffocating.
Romantic gestures fall flat when they aren’t rooted in honesty.
Without the oxygen of truth, Eros can’t breathe.
If you use Valentine’s Day to celebrate love, but neglect to nurture it the rest of the year, you’re missing the point.
If you dismiss Valentine’s Day as a hollow Hallmark holiday, while spitting in the face of an opportunity to celebrate love, you’re also missing the point.
Love and desire are lovers that must be courted through a dance of presence, persistence, patience, and passion.
A willingness to find the magic in the mundane and suck the marrow from each moment.
The curiosity and creativity to see the doorways to intimacy that exist everywhere, if we know how to look for them and dare to step through them.
The grit and courage to get your hands dirty and look truth in the eye unflinchingly, even when it scares the s**t out of you.
The audacity to let honesty breathe, even if it threatens to burn everything to the ground.
A relationship lacking the oxygen of truth will suffocate, regardless of whether we try to sustain it or not…
Only the speed of its inevitable demise can be determined by our resistance, but the fate is certain in the absence of truth.
I’m opening a very small number of spots for Undressed Eros– my high-touch, high-honesty, private couples initiation– for those who are done resisting the aliveness that wants to breathe between them.
This isn’t about saving a relationship at all costs. It’s about restoring truth, agency, and eros, and letting something real emerge.
If you feel this edge, DM me UNDRESSED Eros for more details.
