Reviews

“Dr. Aly’s offered incredible insights into the usually unspoken discomforts of pick-up culture and her framing helped me understand the ways patriarchy and shame live in my body, and the harmful impacts they are having on all of my encounters. Learning tangible ways safety and desire can be interwoven for incredible connection with others was truly a gift!” - S.M.

“This workshop felt like a game-changer. I came away with much more confidence, clarity, and ease. Dr. Aly is friendly, approachable and caring, and her commitment to helping people experience interactions and relationships that are both full of passion and comfortable and consensual for all involved is evident throughout.” - S.J.

“I now feel so much freer to have my desires and more confident I can share them without making women feel uncomfortable. The workshop offered clear guiding principles as well as a toolbox of specific tactics I can apply immediately in my dating life, all presented in a way that was both empathetic and practical.” - S.S.
