Why women are finally having the conversation they were never taught to have…
Women talk about careers. Money. Relationships. Wellness. Motherhood. But when it comes to sex, intimacy and desire, many are still navigating the conversation quietly – and often completely alone.
That’s exactly why The Brave Collective an inclusive woman’s empowerment community is launching Brave Sex Talk, an intimate event designed to create a safe, honest space where women can openly unpack the realities of sex, relationships, body changes, hormones, mental load and emotional intimacy.
Taking place on 25 May 2026 at The Tryst, the morning event is intentionally different from the sensationalised “sex talks” women are used to seeing online.
Instead, the focus is on real conversations backed by clinical knowledge, medical science, psychology and lived experience.
“This isn’t about shock value. It’s about honesty,” says Taryn Hunter Sharman, founder of The Brave Collective, a women’s empowerment platform focused on meaningful conversations and community.
The event will feature two respected experts in women’s health and sexual wellbeing:
- Dr Zenda, who will unpack the biological and physiological side of sexual wellbeing, including hormones and nervous system regulation.
- Catriona Boffard, who will explore the psychology of intimacy, desire, trauma, ADHD, neurodivergence and the role the brain plays in sex and connection.
The Brave Collective says the goal is simple: to replace shame and silence with language, understanding and agency.
Guests can expect evidence-based discussions, audience Q&A and an atmosphere designed to feel safe, warm and judgment-free – not rehearsed.
The event is limited to just 100 attendees, creating a more intimate environment where women can feel comfortable asking questions and engaging openly.
