Carlin Ross
I started my career in law and resisted going into “sex” until I was 32 when my intention to create a lifestyle brand for women put me on the front page of the NY Times.
It was no accident that I ended up at Betty Dodson’s door to interview her about the current state of feminism and women’s sexuality. Our connection was instantaneous.
Together, we launched dodsonandross.com and our weekly Youtube Series, relaunched her Bodysex workshops, released her memoir, and appeared on Goop’s Netflix series – episode 3: The Pleasure is Ours.
Betty left the planet during covid lockdown. When I was at my lowest and couldn’t see the path forward, I received an email about the registration for bodysex.com. A kind-hearted stranger had purchased it and wanted to gift it to us – the Betty Dodson Foundation.
I never imagined Bodysex – Betty’s Sistine chapel – would have its own home. Welcome to Bodysex.
I lead in-person Bodysex workshops twice a year in Cleveland, Ohio.
I offer virtual Bodysex (workshops for one) via zoom.
I offer one-hour zoom sessions (ask any question) via calendly.
