In this episode we’re talking about something most of us need more of yet don’t know how to ask for: safe, platonic touch.

My guest is Michelle Renee, a human connection coach, certified cuddle therapist, and co-owner and Director of Training at Cuddlist.com. She helps individuals reconnect with their bodies and rewire the stories they’ve been told about intimacy, touch, and self-worth.

This conversation is honest, tender, funny, and deeply human. If you’ve ever struggled with touch, consent, vulnerability, or connection — this one’s for you.

Michelle Renee (she/her) is a human connection coach based in San Diego. Through cuddle therapy and consent-based coaching, she helps individuals — especially trauma survivors — build emotional safety, reconnect with their bodies, and explore new ways of being in relationship. She’s the co-owner of Cuddlist, host of The Intimacy Lab podcast, and founder of Soft Cock Appreciation Week, a virtual event redefining narratives around male sexuality and pleasure.
