Bio

“See yourself as the beautiful, loving being that you are… capable and deserving of pleasure and connection.” Susan’s mission is simple. Let’s transform “having sex” into making love together. Her libido botanicals and blood flow supplements, sexual energy bars, and sensuous body butters enhance your lovemaking. Her 34 books and programs offer practical, actionable pleasure techniques. And her bountiful free gifts ensure everyone has access to the heart-connected intimacy they crave. Susan’s indefatigable energy to create hundreds of TV segments, radio, podcast and summit appearances, sex advice videos, and uplifting stage events around the world as well as the thousands of newsletter and magazine articles she’s penned weekly for over a decade make her the most beloved intimacy expert in the world today. She’s a little bit pundit, a little bit nurturing, and a lotta bit sexy — because Susan walks her talk as a model of what is possible for your orgasmic pleasure potential. She believes in you. And she believes love, affection and touch are your birthright. Together with her partner of 30 years, Susan and Tim Bratton’s companies, The20, LLC and Personal Life Media, Inc. have been guiding lovers around the world and across the gender spectrum onto the “upward pleasure spiral” where sex just keeps getting better your whole life long. Susan’s passionate lovemaking techniques, bedroom communication skills, intimate wellness advice and sexual vitality products keep your libido thrumming and your lust for life lit up.

An idea worth spreading

In the choice between mind, body and soul - I choose now to focus on "body." What is it like to be in your body? To feel sensation? So much of our lives, we're in our heads. A part of my current calling involves helping people find the magic of their sensual side, connecting with other souls through touch, love, opening and a conscious desire to feel. We yearn to be touched, to be loved, to be stroked, to expand our sensations. I say, "yes." And I'm helping others to say "yes" too, by empowering some of the most heartfelt teachers of intimacy to deliver their message worldwide. See where you can go. It's just another of life's delights to explore.

The TED story

My story starts with Tom Rielly, who invited me in 2004 to donate a product to the goodie bag. I was hooked. In 2006 I launch my company at TED. A dozen years later, here I am again.
