6-Week Experience
Desiring Me

Not a diet. A discovery.
A 6-week sacred journey for those ready to stop fighting their body and start listening to it.

You were never broken.
You were just disconnected.

You've tried the calorie counting. The meal plans. The weigh-ins. And every time, somewhere around week three, something falls apart. Not because you lack willpower, but because none of those programs ever asked your body what it actually needed.

Your body isn't a math problem. Food, movement, stress, sleep, hormones, emotion, pleasure, and the life you're actually living all belong in the conversation. Yet most programs reduce that whole relationship to numbers and rules.

A personal story

From 2021 to 2023, I released 90 pounds. Not through deprivation. Through coming home.

Not through a diet. Not through punishing workouts I hated. Through coming fully into my body as a sensual being and letting that awareness guide every choice I made about food, movement, rest, and pleasure.

I didn't count a single calorie. I didn't weigh in. I didn't white-knuckle my way through anything. I just started listening. And my body, for the first time in my adult life, started responding.

Then life changed again. I broke my ankle, went through surgery and a long recovery, and gained some of that weight back. The woman you see on this page today is not me at my smallest. She's me now. And what surprised me was that while my body changed, I didn't lose the relationship I'd built with her.

That's why I'm bringing Desiring Me back now. Not from the finish line. Not from a perfect after. From inside a real, changing body and a practice that has to hold up in real life.

Your body
isn't a problem
to solve.

It's a relationship

to return to.

Pleasure is larger than food

Nourishment. Experience.
Connection. Joy.

Dessert is not bad. A nourishing meal is not virtuous. Food doesn't need moral categories. And pleasure includes food but is so much larger than food: relationships, experiences, curiosity, movement, rest, laughter, connection.

Bodies have seasons

Injury. Stress. Recovery. Change. A sustainable practice has to account for all of it.

A body moves through hormonal shifts, exhaustion, injury, celebration, age, and grief. The goal isn't to perform wellness on the good days and disappear on the hard ones.

A real practice meets you wherever you are. It asks a different question entirely.

What does my body need now?

Recovery, 2025

Six areas.
One relationship.

01
Body
Learning to hear what your body is actually saying, beneath the noise, the habits, and the conditioning.
02
Pleasure
Reclaiming pleasure as information, not indulgence. Learning to follow what genuinely feels good rather than what you've been told to want.
03
Nourishment
A relationship with food built on curiosity, not control. Mindful eating, gut health, and letting go of moral categories.
04
Movement
Finding movement that feels like devotion, not punishment. Your body, your pace, your kind of joy.
05
Rest + Stress
Making space for rest, stress awareness, and nervous-system regulation so your body isn't constantly being asked to thrive while overwhelmed.
06
Desire
The center of everything. What do you actually want? And what becomes possible when you stop being at war with yourself?

This is for you if...

01

You're done counting calories and adding more tasks to an already overwhelming list.

02

You've lost weight before but your relationship with your body still doesn't feel right.

03

You want to feel in your body. Not at war with it.

04

You spend so much time caring for everyone else that you've lost touch with what feels good to you.

05

You know your relationship with your body is about more than food and exercise, and you're ready to explore what else belongs in the conversation.

06

You're ready to explore pleasure, movement, and nourishment on your own terms.

The six-week experience

Six weeks. One homecoming.

Each week builds on the last. The order may shift as the cohort evolves. This is a living journey, not a rigid curriculum.

01

Reconnecting with Your Body

We start by coming home. What does your body feel? What does a yes feel like, and a no? This week builds body literacy: understanding sensation, consent, and the wisdom already living inside you.

02

Pleasure as Information

Your cravings, hunger, and desires aren't enemies. They're information. We learn to slow down and actually listen to what they're telling you, instead of overriding them with rules.

03

Releasing Shame Through Embodiment

This week we look at what's been layered into your relationship with your body. Unprocessed emotion, old stories about food and worthiness, experiences you've carried quietly. Through embodiment practices, distance Reiki, and guided journaling, we start to loosen what's been held.

04

Movement as Devotion

We find your movement, the kind that feels like something you'd actually choose. Dance, sensual movement, water, walking, whatever makes your body feel alive. When movement stops being a debt you pay, it becomes something you look forward to.

05

Sensual Nourishment

Not a diet. A relationship with food. Mindful eating, gut health basics, how to eat without guilt, and how to bring real pleasure back to the table. The snack aisle will still be there. You'll just be choosing from a different place.

06

Embodying Desire

What have you learned about what you actually want? What does pleasure tell you now that you're listening? This final week is about integration: not wrapping up the program but understanding how this becomes something you live. We close by asking what it looks like to keep choosing yourself after the six weeks end.

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Designed for busy people who don't have time for complexity. Every element is intentional, intimate, and built around your real life.

6 Live Group Calls

Weekly 90-minute calls with Iana and your cohort. Real conversation, real connection, real community.

Self-Paced Modules

Embodiment practices, meditations, and journaling prompts to work through on your own time between calls.

Weekly Vibe Playlists

Songs sent to you every morning to anchor you in your body before the day takes over.

Private Reiki 1-on-1

Desiring Me Workbook

This is what gathering actually looks like.

Community isn't a feature of this program. It's the container that makes the experience possible.

Iana Walker
Why I'm leading this

I didn't create Desiring Me because I had it figured out. I created it because I lived it.

I released 90 pounds through sacred sensuality work: learning to listen to my body, reclaim my pleasure, and stop punishing myself for being human. Then I broke my ankle, gained weight in recovery, and chose to build this program anyway.

Because the practice was never about having the perfect body. It was about having a real relationship with the one you're already in.

I understand what you're carrying because I've carried versions of it too.
