You are a human, not just a worker

In a world that glorifies hustle, productivity, and the never-ending to-do list, slowing down to enjoy yourself can feel almost rebellious. We’re conditioned to believe that pleasure, whether it’s enjoying your coffee, going to bed early to read, or exploring sensuality, is something to be earned after we’ve checked off everything else. But what if pleasure isn’t the reward? What if it’s the point? When we prioritize what feels good, we disrupt the cycle of overwork and exhaustion that keeps us stuck. 

Pleasure reminds us that we are human, not just workers, and that our worth isn’t tied to output.

This is why pleasure is more than just self-care; it’s a reclamation. When we center joy, intimacy, and play, we shift our focus from "What should I be doing?" to "What do I actually want?", a question capitalism rarely encourages us to ask. Unlearning the belief that pleasure is frivolous takes time, but it’s worth it. The more we embrace it, the more we create lives that nourish us instead of depleting us. And when we show up well-rested, connected, and full of desire, we’re far more powerful than when we’re running on empty.

If this resonates, consider joining Pleasure Club, a space designed to help you explore, reclaim, and deepen your relationship with pleasure in all its forms. Through guided conversations, playful exercises, and a supportive community, we’ll challenge the myths that keep us from fully enjoying our lives. Because pleasure isn’t just an indulgence, it’s a way of living.
