The Midlife Witch
Somatic sexuality practitioner, tantra teacher, retreat leader — and your favorite sex witch.

Stephanie Rae spent the first half of her career in investment banking — successful, accomplished, and quietly abandoning herself. Midlife did not break that life open gently. It cracked it wide.
What followed was nineteen years of studying and teaching tantra, eight years of clinical somatic work with sexuality and trauma, Ironman finish lines, and retreats led on four continents. Her work sits where pleasure, nervous-system healing and honest desire meet.
Today she works with women, men and couples who are done performing — people ready to feel their own bodies again, speak what they actually want, and build intimacy that doesn't require self-erasure.
