The SEX+ Summit has proudly signed Le Wand and b-Vibe as Pleasure Sponsors of its upcoming digital event, scheduled Oct. 2-4, 2020, online. Highlighting the intersection of sexuality, sexuality and healing, the SEX+ Summit will host a series of free Pleasure Workshops taught by some of the most sought-after sexperts in the industry and created with the support of two award-winning known for their dedication to inclusivity, sex education, and pleasure activism worldwide.
Hosted by Anne Hodder-Shipp and Sarah Tomchesson, two experienced sex educators and cultural event producers, the SEX+ Summit allows you to explore the wellness world’s most current offerings through engaging panels, at-home experientials, and expert guidance – offering a uniquely fulfilling and connective experience you can enjoy from the comfort and privacy of home.
“We are honored to be a part of this groundbreaking cultural event and helping make pleasure education more accessible and available to an eager online audience,” Le Wand and b-Vibe CEO Alicia Sinclair said. “Sex and pleasure education is a core part of b-Vibe’s and Le Wand’s marketing and development and a key way we connect with our audience, and the SEX+ Summit gives us a rare opportunity to offer core knowledge while highlighting our popular product lines. It’s a win-win relationship and an absolute pleasure working with Anne and Sarah on such a special project.”
This one-of-a-kind immersive digital event brings together some of the brightest and most engaging experts, practitioners, and healers whose work intersects sexuality, sensuality, and identity. This weekend-long digital event centers Black, queer, non-binary, and non-Black POC voices to foster essential conversations about sex, sexuality, and spirituality often left out of mainstream wellness and sexuality spaces.
Joining the SEX+ Summit are Sexuality Doula Ev’Yan Whitney and author, LGBTQ+ advocate, and pundit Jeffrey Marsh as keynote speakers, with Black Feminist folk-healer Jade T. Perry hosting a sensual group tarot reading to kick off the event. Panelists include astrologer Dayna Lynn Nuckolls of The People’s Oracle, Body Relationship Coach Ivy Felicia, trauma expert and queer media consultant Jimanekia Eborn, activist and artist Sean Saifa Wall of the Intersex Justice Project, therapist and radical body acceptance advocate Sonalee Rashatwar, President and CEO of SIECUS – Sex Ed for Social Change Christine Soyong Harley, and many others.
The SEX+ Summit is for anyone that shares a passion for self-care and sensual exploration, as it provides connection and community at a vital time. This weekend-long digital event dares you to open your mind and find a new comfort zone while exploring some of the most powerful, interesting, and exciting offerings available. Each workshop, panel, keynote, and at-home experiential is specially produced for digital engagement with a mix of live discussions, and downloadable content and activities you can enjoy at your leisure.
“I love talking about how to release shame and step into sexual liberation,” Sexuality Doula™ and SEX+ Summit Keynote Ev’Yan Whitney said. “I love speaking about sensuality – the practice of it, the theory of it, the embodiment of it. Pleasure, as well. I hope that my voice and wisdom will spur others to heal and actualize themselves.”
“Participating in an event like the SEX+ Summit feels like contributing to both dialogue and action around the long, slow work of re-recognizing the always-already-there intimacy between our spiritual, intellectual, and physical lives,” said Diana Rose, astrologer, tarot reader, reiki master, and SEX+ Summit panel speaker.
The SEX+ Summit also connects attendees with the wellness world’s in-demand services – tarot, astrology, breathwork, sex toys, herbalism, and more – with a hand-picked marketplace of makers, artists, service providers, and brands who represent the latest and greatest in sexual and sensual wellness.

“It’s an exciting time to be a part of the SEX+ Summit,” said Tracy Felder, pleasure product educator and SEX+ Summit pleasure workshop host. “It means that there’s a great shift in diversity and how society is ready to be educated with folks that relate to them daily when it comes to sexuality. I’m happy to be a part of the movement.”
