Workshops

Warm education. Real conversation. More to discover.

Coming Soon: A Year of Workshops for Women in Midlife and Beyond

Island Passion's workshops make conversations about pleasure and sexual well-being easier to have, with approachable, evidence-informed education grounded in science and real life.

Led by Audrey Panter, MSW, Founder of Island Passion, with occasional guest experts, these workshops combine trusted knowledge, practical tools and everyday language to explore pleasure, desire, arousal, intimacy, connection and our changing bodies.

Our year-long online series is built around three simple ideas: Comfort, Connection and Pleasure. Each session is guided by the P.L.E.A.S.U.R.E.™ Framework, developed by Audrey Panter to help women understand and expand their pleasure at every stage of life. Some workshops will also be offered in person, so you can choose the setting that feels best for you. Each workshop stands on its own, so you can join the ones that speak to you.

Whether you're in your 40s and wondering what's ahead, in your 50s and ready to explore, or in your 70s and know pleasure doesn't have an expiry date, there's a place for you here.

No problem to solve. Curiosity is enough.

What You'll Gain

  • Understand what the science tells us about pleasure and sexual well-being
  • Move beyond myths, stigma and outdated assumptions
  • Gain practical tools for comfort, connection and pleasure
  • Make informed choices with greater confidence and curiosity

Spotlight Sessions

Alongside the main series, we'll offer Spotlight Sessions designed for specific communities and life chapters. These may include online or in-person workshops for couples and partners, for people in open or multi-partner relationships, for women living with disability, chronic pain or health changes, and for 2SLGBTQIA+ women and people assigned female at birth (AFAB). Each workshop stands on its own, so you can join the ones that speak to you.

Have an idea for a Spotlight Session, or want to book one for your group? We'd love to hear from you.
