This episode focuses on how my own personal and professional growth and learning have enabled me to assist others in their journeys of flourishing. Evelyne's perspective enriches our dialogue and helps in highlighting my journey, learnings and practice so you can have a deeper understanding of how I approach somatic sex education, sex work, and trauma healing.
Evelyne Chevry is a multifaceted identity who is professionally and personally active in various fields from science, through art and entrepreneurship. She publicly identifies as a futurist and activist as well as a queer, neurodivergent transwoman of colour, yet she is continuously discovering other parts of herself that are unfolding.
Her journey of flourishing and empowerment has led her to heal and learn on her own gender and sexual identity through therapies and tools in trauma healing, sexual therapy, embodiment, mindfulness, eroticism, relationship and art.
Through her entrepreneurship side, her commitment to diversity and inclusion is reflected in her activism and public stances. A spokesperson for causes such as neurodiversity, the support of LGBTQ2IA communities, feminism, BIPOC reality, sustainable development, and social innovation, Evelyne combines professionalism, innovation, art, and social commitment to contribute to a more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable society.
