And just like that…
Wow, well, I haven’t written in awhile. Way back when I had quite a loyal following on here. Let’s see, since then I: almost got engaged and then didn’t, dated a rockstar, dated a woman, starting leading Sex Education workshops, almost finished a 3.5 year Master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling, completed 600 plus regular therapy hours, completed over 3,000 sex coaching sessions, successfully ran my own business that supported me financially through school, and done a bunch of personal growth and healing.
I think what is hitting me more than anything, is how much can happen in 10 years. In the last ten years I have lived in 4 different countries, worked countless jobs, got a Master’s, been in and out of some great relationships, seen the world, met incredible people, and truly found the career I am meant to be in. What will happen in the next 10 years?
I am hoping, I find my words again- I write again. My creativity has left the building while I’ve been existing in such a strict realm of academia and therapeutic jargon. As a “therapist” we have lots of rules. One of which being that clients should not know much about you- don’t be political, be a blank slate, don’t have opinions, blah blah blah. Well, that will just never be me. It can’t be. But I will have to find a way to navigate being myself, being a healer, and working under some restrictions- at least for the time being.
I’ve learned some things in the last decade. I’ve learned lots about sex, relationships, people, and the world. I want to share it. The beautiful part is- I am still learning and plan to keep learning.
Soon I will be able to put out these interviews I conducted on couples’ experiences of sexual satisfaction- what works for them and what doesn’t, how they define sex in their relationship, what sexual satisfaction means to them.
Other than that I want to hear from you— what would you like to hear about? What do you want me to write about?
I am curious, let me know<3 Thank you for being here. Welcome back. This will always be a community I cherish.
Love,
Clarke Rose
