About Me

Hi, I’m Jen Wolf — an intimacy & empowerment coach, and the founder of Wolf & Lions. I help people who’ve spent years overriding themselves learn to come home to their bodies, their truth, and their desire with more safety, agency, and aliveness. 

 

My journey toward intimacy and wholeness began when everything I had built my life around started to come undone. The identity I had built began to unravel, and my body could no longer carry the weight of ignored needs, swallowed emotions, and learned silence. I was exhausted. I couldn’t sleep. My body ached. My mind felt dimmed. Doctors told me it was “just stress” and handed me labels like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Eventually, I received diagnoses of Lyme disease and chronic active Epstein-Barr virus. While having this explanation brought some relief, it was only part of a bigger picture. There was also a deeper truth I couldn’t avoid: my body was telling the truth my voice didn’t yet feel safe to speak. It was asking me - insistently - to come home to myself.

 

Leaving my marriage of 16 years became the beginning of reclaiming myself emotionally, physically, and spiritually. It forced me to confront painful realizations: I hadn’t been taught how to listen to myself. I didn’t know how to recognize my desires, trust them, or take up space without guilt.

 

In my own healing, connecting with my desire, eroticism, and pleasure was pivotal to connecting with my life force. I was raised in a culture where sexuality was framed as sinful or dangerous, where “self-love” was labeled selfish, and where listening to my needs was discouraged. So I deconstructed that conditioning and learned intimacy from scratch. I began the journey of healing my inner self while also learning to manage chronic illness.

 

Today, I bring that lived experience together with my training in Somatica and Wayfinder coaching methods to support clients in a practical, grounded way. In our work together, we:

  • Learn to listen to your body instead of overriding it

  • Practice boundaries and requests in real time (so they become usable in your actual life)

  • Build nervous-system safety for pleasure, closeness, and truth-telling

  • Shift patterns like fawning, shrinking, over-functioning, or abandoning yourself to belong

  • Create relationships—and a relationship with yourself—where you don’t have to disappear

MY PHILOSOPHY

  • Your body is wise.

  • Pleasure isn’t frivolous.

  • Intimacy is a skill you can practice.

 

What clients tend to experience with me is a steady, grounded presence—someone who can hold intensity without rushing to fix it, and who will help you translate insight into practiced change.

If you’re ready to live with more wholeness, truth, and embodied freedom, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
