Hey my beautiful loves,
I can finally say this out loud. Something that's been in the works since day one of Next Level Intimacy Coaching is taking shape. I held off until I could build it right, because the people it's for deserve real support, not a half-built promise.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and I want that awareness to include everyone. Men, women, nonbinary folks, LGBTQ+ survivors, and the people who never saw themselves on the posters.
**The Open Door Program**
by Next Level Intimacy Coaching
*Abuse has no gender. Support shouldn't either.*
**Why this has to exist**
Too many survivors get told to wait months for an appointment. Or they only get help if they fit the right box: the right diagnosis, the right gender, the right kind of story, the right insurance. Or they get met with shame because of who they love or how they identify.
And the people who don't fit the checkbox? They get left out in the cold, forced to defend themselves and prove they were hurt enough to deserve help.
We lose so many people we love because the support wasn't there when they needed it. No one should have to audition for care.
**What I can offer**
I'm a coach. I'm support. Not a therapist, not a doctor, and I will never pretend to be. Therapists and doctors do vital work, and I'm not replacing them.
Coaching fills a different gap. No diagnosis required. No billing codes. No proving your pain. Just a steady, grounded human in your corner who helps you slow down, get back into your body, and figure out your next step. And when you need more than I can give, I'll help you find the right services.
**How it works**
Community members sponsor sessions. People who qualify receive them. For now it runs through my coaching business, so I can start now instead of waiting years.
One rule is baked in from day one: **the person receiving help is never the product.** Sponsors can be recognized. Nobody's name, story, or circumstances ever gets handed over because they funded a session.
**Where this is headed**
My hope is that it grows. Nonprofit status someday is part of that dream, but it takes time, and people need support in the meantime. So I'm building it in the open, one solid step at a time.
We are launching soon because I'm putting the safety structure in place first.
**How you can help**
- Offer a space. If you have a room, office, or community space I could use, I'd love to talk.
- Help me start group support circles in the near future.
- Team up. If you run a resource that serves survivors or the LGBTQ+ community, let's connect.
- Sponsor a session when we open, or tag a business that might want to back it.
- Join the list below the post at the link to be first to know.
This isn't a crisis service. If you need help right now, the resources are in the first comment. Share this post. Even one share could reach someone who needs it, or a business that wants to help. Thank you, truly.
