Description

In this conversation, Cynthia and Silba break down the reasons for pleasure feeling like such a taboo topic for many women. They explore the ties between body connection and true intimacy with yourself or with a partner. 

Pleasure not just as a fleeting experience; it's a natural state of being that arises from alignment with oneself. Silba shares her personal journey of reconnecting with her body. The discussion also delves into the distinction between real pleasure, which nourishes and satisfies, and hijacked pleasure, which offers temporary satisfaction but leaves one feeling empty. The conversation emphasizes the significance of mindfulness and self-awareness in cultivating a deeper sense of pleasure and intimacy in relationships, but also deconditioning societal norms that disconnect individuals from their bodies. They discuss the importance of reconnecting with one's body the way that babies and children innocently do so we can get back to the ongoing nature of personal growth and self-acceptance.

Silba is a behavioural scientist, somatic coach, and sensuality educator passionate about helping ambitious women with a big heart reconnect to their bodies, rekindle their pleasure, and reclaim their full feminine expression so they can safely be themselves.

With eleven years of experience in human fulfilment—first as a consultant for organizations in London and for the past six years working 1:1 with clients and leading talks and workshops worldwide, Silba brings a unique blend of science, storytelling, and accessible strategies. Her approach is warm, creative, and playful, making personal growth feel deeply enjoyable.
