And how can touch, presence, and embodied connection help heal shame, trauma, and sexual wounding?

In this honest and illuminating conversation, Rahi Chun sits down with Andre Lazarus — somatic intimacy coach, certified Somatica practitioner, sexual surrogate partner, and sacred intimate — to demystify three of the most misunderstood professions in the world of sexual healing.

Together, they explore what it truly means to hold space for someone’s erotic awakening.

Andre shares his personal journey — from early experiences of loving across genders, to surviving sexual violation, to discovering his calling in somatic sexual healing work — and how those experiences shaped his capacity to guide others through intimacy, trauma repair, and authentic expression.

Inside this episode:

• The difference between Somatica coaching, sexual surrogacy, and sacred intimacy
 • Scope of practice and boundaries for each modality
 • How surrogate partner therapy works (the therapist–client–surrogate triangle)

 • Healing sexual trauma through embodied experiences
