Don’t Disconnect - Season 3 - Episode 45

Elan Zelenka is a sexual empowerment coach who specializes in helping women embody their most confident selves in the bedroom, business, and life. 

While she works with clients to cultivate a deeper sense of safety and inner peace, she also focuses on helping them explore their edges to uncover AND discover their true personal power. 

Her transformational work will take you through a journey of releasing shame and insecurities to living a life full of pleasure, genuine connection, and self love.

Elena thought it was important to be part of the Uplifting Women Podcast because, “I would like to be a voice for the importance of sexual healing, empowerment, and expression both in the bedroom and out because through my own experience, I've witnessed such a transformation for myself and others. I whole-heartedly believe that healing this aspect of our lives gives way to incredible personal confidence and also allows us to navigate work, life, and relationships in a healthier way.”

The top 3 topics she talks about are: 

1) Communication & self expression

2) The relationship between sexual exploration/healing and achieving success in business/work

3) The importance of cultivating intimacy with ourselves and integrating the wholeness of our experience

And her top experiences are:

Moderating a community home, self actualization and embodying the principles that I teach/mentor in, having hosted dynamic and transformational retreats and in-person events. 

I create experiences for women to connect deeper with their bodies, lean into both safety and courage, and to express themselves authentically and powerfully. 

Elena’s message is fully aligned with some themes of the other podcasts such as authenticity, mindfulness, community, and trust. This episode will also bring in components of intimacy, relationship building and communication, and integration!
