Wheel of Consent® Weekend Immersion

An Immersive Practice in Embodied Consent, Desire, and Relational Attunement

A three-day immersive weekend to deepen your understanding and embodied practice of the Wheel of Consent®, a framework that helps you feel the difference between giving from generosity and giving from obligation, between receiving with ease and receiving while bracing.

This isn't a lecture. It's a practice.

Through partnered (fully clothed, non-sexual) exercises, solo reflection, and group integration, you'll learn to recognize consent dynamics in your body, not just think about them conceptually.

---------------------

Have You Ever...

  • Felt your body tense when someone asks "what do you want?", so you just say "I don't know" or "whatever you want"?
  • Given from obligation so many times you've forgotten what generous giving feels like?
  • Received a compliment, a gift, or care and immediately felt the urge to deflect, minimize, or give something back?
  • Said yes when your body was screaming no because you didn't want to disappoint someone?
  • Felt guilty for wanting pleasure that's just for you?
  • Started giving someone a massage and realized halfway through you're monitoring their pleasure instead of enjoying the touch yourself?

If any of these land in your body as a "yes, that's me," this weekend is for you.

---------------------

What You'll Explore

Over three days, we'll practice:

The Four Quadrants of the Wheel of Consent® - Understanding when you're in service, when you're taking, when you're allowing, and when you're accepting

Noticing Your Yes and Your No - Developing the capacity to track sensation, desire, and boundary in real time

Clean Requests - Asking for what you want without pressure, manipulation, or apologizing

Generous Giving - Learning to give from overflow, not obligation

Grounded Receiving - Allowing pleasure, care, and attention without performing or shrinking

Shadow Consent - Recognizing the subtle ways we override ourselves and others

These distinctions change how you relate: to partners, friends, colleagues, family, and yourself.

---------------------

This Work Shows Up Everywhere

These patterns don't just live in the bedroom. They show up:

  • When your partner asks "what do you want for dinner?" and you can't respond
  • When you're giving a massage and realize you're monitoring their pleasure instead of enjoying the touch
  • When someone compliments you and you immediately deflect or minimize
  • When you want to ask for slower, more present touch but don't know how
  • When you say yes to helping a friend move but resent it the whole time
  • When receiving feels like owing, and giving feels like depleting
  • When you can't say no to your mom without feeling guilty for days
  • When you want something at work but don't know how to ask without seeming difficult

These patterns don't live in your head. They live in your nervous system. And that's where we work.

If You're Feeling Nervous, Read This

If this work has been stirring something and you're also feeling a little nervous, that makes complete sense.

Most of us have learned, often the hard way, that "growth spaces" can feel intense, performative, or quietly pressuring. That we might be asked to share more than we want, move faster than our body is ready for, or override ourselves in the name of transformation.

This is not that kind of space.

The Wheel of Consent® Weekend is slow, choice-led, and deeply attuned. It's designed to support your nervous system, not overwhelm it.

A few things I want you to know clearly:

  • No nudity, no sexual contact
  • No pressure to share, perform, or participate beyond your comfort
  • You are always invited to track your own pace
  • Opting out is as welcome as opting in
  • The group is intentionally small (20 participants maximum) and carefully held

This work isn't about pushing edges.

It's about learning to listen: to sensation, to capacity, and to what's true in the moment.

You don't need to be confident.

You don't need to be articulate.

You don't need to know exactly what you want.

You just need a willingness to stay present with yourself.

---------------------

Who This Is For

This workshop is for you if:

  • You've completed "The Practice of Giving & Receiving Pleasure" (or similar consent-based embodied work) and want to go deeper
  • You're curious about the Wheel of Consent® and ready for experiential practice, not just theory
  • You notice patterns of over-giving, difficulty receiving, unclear boundaries, or desire that feels confusing
  • You want intimacy that feels honest, grounded, and human—not performative
  • You're ready to feel consent dynamics in your body, not just understand them intellectually

No previous Wheel of Consent experience required. Newcomers and returning practitioners both welcome.

---------------------

What to Expect

This is a trauma-informed, choice-led container.

  • No nudity, no sexual contact
  • No pressure to share, perform, or participate beyond your comfort
  • You are always invited to track your own pace
  • Opting out is as welcome as opting in
  • The group is intentionally small (20 participants maximum) and carefully held

What to bring:

  • Comfortable clothing that allows movement
  • A notebook for reflections
  • A closed-lid water bottle
  • Yourself, exactly as you are

Meals: Light snacks and tea provided. Lunch breaks built in (bring your own or explore nearby Boulder options).

Why This Work Is Different

Most communication workshops teach you what to say.

This weekend teaches your nervous system how to feel safe saying it.

Most intimacy work focuses on technique.

This weekend focuses on attunement, to yourself first, then to others.

Most consent education stays conceptual.

This weekend is embodied practice, you feel the difference in your body, not just understand it intellectually.

Most relationship advice tells you to "just communicate."

This weekend gives you the language and nervous system capacity to actually do it.

This isn't about getting it right. It's about building capacity to stay present with what's true.

You can't think your way into embodied consent. You have to practice it.

What Past Participants Say

"I've been in therapy for years working on boundaries. This weekend taught my body what my brain already knew. The difference is night and day."

"I didn't realize how much I was performing until I learned what it felt like to actually receive. My partner said I'm a completely different person."

"This work isn't just about sex, it changed how I show up everywhere. At work. With my kids. In my friendships. I finally understand the difference between generous giving and obligatory giving."

"I thought I knew how to touch until Jade invited me to feel what it was like to touch for my own pleasure. Taking pleasure isn't selfish, it's sacred. When I stopped performing and let myself receive, something cracked open."

Common Questions

Q: Do I need to share personal details in the group?

A: Participation is always invitational. You share what feels right for you. Listening is a completely valid form of engagement. Some people speak every session; others process internally and share occasionally. Both are welcome here.

Q: Can I attend if I'm single or not currently in a relationship?

A: Absolutely. This work deepens your relationship with yourself first, which is foundational whether you're single, dating, or partnered. Many participants attend solo. You'll leave knowing yourself better, which changes everything that comes next.

Q: What if I miss a live session?

A: The weekend is designed as a complete immersive experience. Missing significant portions would impact your learning. If you're concerned about attendance, please reach out before registering so we can discuss whether this cohort is right for your schedule.

Q: I have a history of trauma. Is this appropriate for me?

A: This work is trauma-informed and designed for bodies at all stages of healing. We move at the pace your nervous system can hold. Nothing is mandatory. That said, this is education and practice, not therapy. If you have specific concerns, I'm happy to discuss on a free 15-minute clarity call.

Q: Will this help my sex life?

A: This isn't sex therapy, but participants consistently report that understanding consent dynamics in their body transforms their intimate experiences. We're not chasing outcomes or "fixing" anything. We're building attunement. The rest tends to follow.

Q: Is this LGBTQ+ inclusive?

A: Yes. This work is for all genders, sexualities, orientations, and relationship structures. The frameworks we use are about understanding yourself and communicating clearly, they work for everyone.

Q: Can I bring a partner?

A: Yes, partners are welcome. You'll each register individually. During partnered exercises, you may be invited to work with different people to deepen your individual practice, though you can also choose to work together.

Q: What happens after the weekend ends?

A: You'll have internalized the practices and framework. Many participants continue informal practice with friends or return for future workshops. I also offer 1:1 coaching for those who want continued support.
