Leave Shame and Stigma Behind
Erin has been challenging the rules and going against the grain since day one. Never being the one to follow the crowd, especially when it comes to exploring and discussing the forbidden topics deemed Taboo. You know, the stuff people shy away from but can’t escape – Sex, Mental Health, self-expression. Long before the conversations around these areas started to become trendy and growing up in an era where such discussions were being tip-toed around, Erin saw them for what they are: some of the core pillars of the human experience. If others say, “We shouldn’t talk about that,” Erin’s the first to respond with, “LET’S TALK ABOUT IT!”
In her early 20’s, she began putting the societal stigmas center stage. Throwing convention out the window, with no previous experience, she became a nude model for art galleries and world-renowned artists, discovering a new level of empowerment in every pose. Even accepting a role as an exotic performer in a low-budget drama film. Around the same time, she began taking bodybuilding seriously to confront insecurities about her physique, ultimately reshaping not just her body but her life. In many ways, bringing a pioneering energy to spaces that have now become more widely embraced. Despite the roadblocks life continued to throw at her along the way, her relentless journey led to her earning her Pro title and a fierce sense of self. Proving that where you start has little to do with where you can go.
Fast forward, after dedicating most of her early prime adult years to multiple corporate positions, she continued to see how “authenticity” and “business casual” didn’t exactly mix. Ultimately highlighting the stark contrast between societal expectations and her true passions. Eventually, losing an impressive executive role for daring to prioritize her mental burnout, she realized it was time to drop the pretense. With almost 2 decades of gym wisdom under her belt, she decided to take the long-time requests of others to heart and launch her career as a personal trainer. Where she naturally found herself guiding clients not just in fitness but also eventually diving into the spicy world of confidence, kinks, and connection – areas of conversation she’s been championing for years.
This new path further solidified her knack for making people feel comfortable with the “uncomfortable.” So, she doubled down, becoming a certified Sexologist and Love & Relationship coach, in order to really pursue her passion for the importance of lifestyle choices in relation to one’s sexual wellness – founding Taming Tabu.
Her mission? To encourage people to break through barriers and live fuller, more connected lives by embracing what makes them unique, owning their quirks and desires, and building real, authentic connections in the ways that matter! In Erin’s world, there’s no such thing as TMI – she believes in the power of understanding and owning your story and not settling for a life lived quietly.
Erin has been my coach for almost a year. And I can’t even describe how happy I am with my choice towards her. She is very professional with a lot of experience. She holds great knowledge.
