In 2005, she was hand picked to become an Off- Site Sex Educator (OSSE) with Carol Queen’s non-profit the Center for Sex and Culture and famed female friendly adult retailer Good Vibrations. Catherine became a Brand Ambassador with Good Vibrations in 2009.
Catherine excels at being able to read a person's body language, connecting with others, and being a motivator for positive behavior change. Catherine can give you the tools you need to fundamentally change the way in which you interact with people.
Catherine Coaches can teach you how to over come your body image issues, how to flirt effectively with potential partners, ways of approaching a person with confidence, and how to keep them coming back for more!
