Meet Courtney
WAANDS™ was born in 2020 as an extension of The Empowered Woman, Courtney's first venture devoted to awakening embodied feminine power. Rooted in a vision of refined intimacy, WAANDS™ offers an elevated collection of crystal pleasure products - each one thoughtfully crafted to inspire eroticism, deepen self-connection, and celebrate the art of pleasure.
At its heart, WAANDS™ is more than a product line - it is a sensual philosophy. A luxurious evolution of Courtney's mission to guide women into unapologetic pleasure, erotic awakening, and personal empowerment.
From a young age, I had a longing to experience the full expression & enjoyment of my sexuality. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to celebrations of sexuality, especially through dance!
Sex has always felt innately spiritual & meaningful to me. This feeling led me to consciously pursue my own sexual empowerment & awakening as early as my teenage years.
I first explored this through promiscuity, pursuing my pleasure without remorse, & being “that friend” who proudly bought all my girlfriends their first vibrator.
I went on to spend years exploring in the fields of sacred sexuality, personal development, holistic health, and spirituality - meanwhile completing a Psychology Degree and a Masters Degree in Coaching.
I first began sharing my journey & insights by hosting Women’s Circles, blogging, and coaching at the start of 2015.
During those initial years, I placed strong emphasis on exploring self-pleasure, especially with the Crystal Pleasure Products that we now offer in the shop today.
Crystal Pleasure Wands to me, have always symbolized sexual celebration and acted as a permission slip…
Permission to enjoy & express my sexuality to the fullest extent. To be seen & valued for what my sexuality brings to this world - by first seeing & valuing it myself.
In early 2018, I expanded my reach through the creation of the original Viva La Vagina™, designed to provide women with the foundational tools to connect to their pussy.
This constituted the formal launch of The Empowered Woman platform to expand my mission and support the sexual & spiritual awakening of women world-wide.
Since then, I have been privileged to influence thousands through my writing, teachings, & products - while always continuing to dive deeper into the work myself.
I am excited & honoured to share WAANDS™ with you, and hope that our products offer you the same profound pleasure & transformation that they've provided me.
Love,
Courtney
