LOS ANGELES—Pleasure product manufacturing giant California Exotic Novelties has partnered with the Passion and Pleasure program to equip couples with tools to reignite passion in their relationships.
“We’re proud to support the Passion and Pleasure program as it aligns perfectly with our mission of promoting sexual health and wellness. Our online community, Club CalExotics, is our voice to the consumer and is where people can find more information about our dear friends at Passion and Pleasure,” said Susan Colvin, president and CEO of CalExotics.
A collaboration between AdultShop.com Managing Director Malcolm Day and Goddess Within author Tracey Jewel, plus more than 20 Australian and American sexologists and relationship professionals, the program is an eight-week online course. It includes video tips and direct-access live chats with experts.
Those involved with the program include the following specialists:
• Dr. John Gray, author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus;
• Dr. Ava Cadell, a top sexpert in America;
• Dr. Gabrielle Morrissey, a leading Australian sexologist;
• The Love Birds: Drs. Chuck and Jo-Ann Bird, board-certified clinical sexologists and relationship counselors who serve as “expert sexperts” for CalExotics.
The program begins in August and covers various topics, including reconnection, communication, sex after children, fantasy roleplaying, intimacy, sexual health, and more. It is compiled of weekly modules with featured posts, video presentations, actionable playsheets and a members-only forum.
The inspiration for the program came from Day and Jewel’s experiences with couples in long-term relationships that ended due to a lack of passion.
“We all know that when couples first meet they want to have sex multiple times a day and they simply can't get enough of each other, but that as time goes by the frequency of sex and intimacy generally diminishes,” Day said.
“We’re confident our program has the potential to vastly improve the sex lives of those who use it and we’re incredibly excited to launch it throughout Australia, New Zealand and the U.S. next month,” Jewel added. To read more about Day and Jewel, go to PassionAndPleasure.com.
The program already has drawn the attention of one celebrity couple: actor Doug Hutchison and his third wife, Courtney Stodden—known for their stint on the Vh1 reality series Couples Therapy—have signed on to partake in the Passion and Pleasure course. Watch Part 1 of the couple’s first session with Dr. Ava Cadell here.
The eight-week program costs $347—a sum dwarfed by what couples might spend on months of relationship counseling. Visit ClubCalExotics.com to find out more and sign up for the online course, which starts on August 19.
