Let me remind you of something real quick. Pleasure is a spectrum, not a synonym for penetrative sex. From mild and cozy to bold and blush-worthy, it’s all the same skillset. Pay attention. Let yourself want. Let your body have a say without apologizing for it. Remind yourself that you’re learning how to choose feeling good on purpose again.

Where in the world are you logging in from today, and what made you slide into Pleasure U? I am a native New Yorker who has lived in Virginia for 18 years

I'm Candice Cherry, your resident pleasure educator, certified sexologist, sensual empowerment coach and the woman who will walk beside you on this pleasure journey. My work lives at the intersection of pleasure, body literacy, and grown-woman confidence. I teach from the lens of the feminine, because too many of us were raised to ignore our bodies, apologize for our desires, and shrink ourselves to keep the peace. Not here. I created Pleasure U because women deserve a place to learn, unlearn, take up space, and feel supported while doing it. You don’t need to show up perfect. You don’t need to already know anything. Curiosity is enough. Outside of this classroom, I’m a mom, a widow, a performer, and a woman doing her own pleasure work right alongside you. I love cruising, slow mornings, good conversation, and anything that feels like a soft exhale. My favorite color is purple but I never wear it cause I look better in blue. I’m also delightfully neurospicy, which means I teach and create in ways that honor brains that don’t follow straight lines. If your mind zigzags, spirals, or needs spaciousness, you’re in the right place. At the end of the day, I’m here because I know you become the best version of yourself when you let pleasure touch every corner of your life. Not just the sexy parts. The soft parts. The messy parts. The everyday moments that deserve more than survival. When you let pleasure in across the whole spectrum, you stop shrinking and start expanding into the woman you were always meant to be.

We’ve had a new faces join us, so let me say this loud and clear… I’m going to keep talking. And whenever you’re ready to jump in, you’re welcome to. Pleasure U is a slow-warm space. Nobody’s expected to show up perfect or chatty on day one. Lurk, sip your coffee, wander around the classroom, ease in at your own pace. But when you feel that tug to introduce yourself, ask a question, or share a thought… follow it. This community grows every time one of you speaks up, even a little. So whether you’ve been here a minute or just walked through the door, you’re invited to say hello. Or stay quiet and settle in. Either way, I’m glad you’re here. Let’s make this space feel lived-in together.

If you’re ready to settle in, start with the “First Taste of Pleasure U” inside the Classroom tab. It’s your gentle, no-pressure walkthrough of how this space works and where everything lives. Once you watch or read a piece of content, tap the little checkmark in the top right corner. That’s how you’ll track your progress and watch your completion bar climb. Yes, we’re celebrating grown-woman gold stars around here. Everything you need is already waiting for you inside the Classroom. Take your time. Revisit as much as you want. This is your space to explore, get comfortable, and start moving at your pace. Screenshot included so you can find your way as soon as you step in. Welcome to Orientation. Let’s get you settled.
