In this week's episode, I interview Sasha Kerkmann Hood. Sasha is a Mother, Midwife, and Relationship & Sexuality coach, and teacher of intuition, and desire. She owns a business alongside her husband, Moritz, working with couples on creating partnerships that foster relationship to personal power, respect and care, deepening connection and intimacy. Sasha believes in living life guided by desire and fueled by connection purpose. In her 14 years of experience as a coach, she sees a thread of supporting women and couples who claim their power and autonomy, in Relationship to themselves, their partners, families and communities.
