On a powerful episode of “A Healthy Point of View” podcast, Sam Tejada, CEO and Founder of Liquivida®, welcomed Jennelle Gordon, a Tantric intimacy expert, author, and retreat leader, who helps women reclaim their pleasure and guides men to lead with presence. Their conversation cracked open one of the most misunderstood aspects of wellness: sexual health as a pillar of overall vitality.
What unfolded wasn’t just a chat about tantra—it was a deep, vulnerable, and revealing dialogue about how intimacy can heal, transform, and elevate our lives.

Tantra Is More Than Sex—It’s Sacred Energy Management
Jennelle describes tantra as “the ultimate divine union of balancing sexual polarity.” Rooted in ancient Indian traditions but also influenced by Tibetan and Taoist practices, tantra is about far more than sex. It’s about aligning masculine and feminine energy within ourselves and with our partners. It’s a sensory and spiritual practice that fosters intimacy, presence, and deeper connection.
“Tantra is the ultimate biohack,” Jennelle said. “You’re preserving and channeling sexual energy for greater intimacy, clarity, creativity, and even consciousness.”
The Missing Link in Most Relationships
According to Jennelle, modern relationships often lose intimacy to routine. Sex becomes the last item on the to-do list—rushed, disconnected, and uninspired. Women become exhausted, men become frustrated, and both parties miss the deeper emotional and energetic bond that intimacy can create. Tantra flips that script.
Jennelle’s retreats help couples and individuals reconnect to their bodies, their desires, and their sense of self through a blend of ancient rituals, bodywork, energy practices, and open communication. But it all begins with one thing: presence.
“Presence, vulnerability, and surrender—that’s the trio that creates intimacy.”
Healing Through Pleasure—And Facing Shame
One of the most moving parts of Jennelle’s work is how she addresses shame—the silent saboteur of intimacy. Through rituals like “Shake the Shame,” she helps people release trauma, societal programming, and religious guilt that have shaped their sex views.
Many women (and men) discover for the first time that self-pleasure can be healing, not sinful. Jennelle speaks openly about her journey—escaping a decade in the Vegas strip club industry and finding empowerment through solo tantric work and deep self-love.
Why Tantra Isn’t Just for Couples
Solo tantra, Jennelle insists, is where the real work begins.
“If you haven’t cultivated intimacy with yourself, there’s no way you’ll find it with someone else.”
Her retreats welcome both singles and couples, and often, it’s the singles who discover the most. Jennelle teaches how to explore one’s own body, awaken pleasure, and experience deeper embodiment, without needing a partner.
Let’s Talk Orgasms—Like You’ve Never Heard Before
Jennelle educates her students on 11 types of orgasms—from nipple and G-spot to anal and even heart-centered climaxes. She challenges the modern obsession with quick, clitoral-based orgasms, explaining how they often desensitize women and cut them off from deeper pleasure.
“There’s nothing wrong with clitoral orgasms,” she explains, “but tantra invites women to feel pleasure that vibrates through the heart, the soul, the whole body.”
Energy Is Everything—Especially in the Bedroom
Sex, Jennelle explains, is an energetic exchange. Every time we share our bodies, we’re sharing our frequency, and that comes with consequences.
“You wouldn’t share your toothbrush with just anyone,” she said. “So why are we sharing our bodies with people who don’t honor our energy?”
She even challenges the term “body count,” pushing for a more conscious way of viewing sexual history and the energetic imprint it leaves behind.
What About Religion?
Many of Jennelle’s students come from Christian, Muslim, and other faith-based backgrounds. She reminds them that tantra isn’t a religion—it’s a practice.
“Sexuality is spirituality. It’s how we create life. It’s the highest form of divine energy. Tantra brought me closer to God—not further away.”
A Retreat That Saves Marriages—And Lives
Jennelle says that her five-day retreats have helped:
- Save marriages teetering on the edge of divorce
- Heal deep sexual trauma and grief
- Reignite intimacy after miscarriages, betrayal, or emotional disconnection
- Empower singles to discover their pleasure and attract healthier partners
Whether guests are healing from infidelity, fertility issues, or just plain boredom in the bedroom—her teachings go far beyond surface-level advice.
In a world where sex is either taboo or trivialized, Jennelle Gordon invites us to bring it back to the sacred. Through the lens of tantra, she helps women reclaim their pleasure and teaches men to lead with presence—not performance.
And as Sam Tejada echoed throughout the episode: “Sexual wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s essential to total wellness.”
