And that’s why you’re here: to build happier relationships —
from the boardroom to the bedroom.
If you want better communication, deeper intimacy & connection, intense passion and hotter sex — all in the context of a busy lifestyle — get started with our FREE podcasts, articles, Q&As & in-depth video courses.
Because happier relationships & lasting love don’t happen by accident. You make them happen. And it’s never too late.
I’m Jess O’Reilly and I’m a sexologist. Born in Canada, I’m Chinese-Jamaican on my mom’s side and Irish on my dad’s. I have a PhD in human sexuality with a focus on teacher training in sexual health & relationship education. School-based education is my passion, so if you’re a teacher, parent or student in a public school, reach out, as I’d love to come volunteer in your classroom!
These days, I travel around the world — from Switzerland and India to London and LA to work with couples who want to invest in their relationships just as they invest in every other area of their lives — from health to wealth. And my workshops don’t just focus on sex, but intersect with all things related to communication, commitment, pleasure, joy, love and fulfilment.
At Happier Couples, we want to change the world — one relationship at a time — so we also write books, contribute to articles and share insights on TV with the goal of providing an evidence-based, practical and fun approach to sex and relationships.
This isn’t just about seduction. It’s your ultimate guide to erotic theory & sexual communication.
Packed with practical exercises, techniques, and creative ideas, this inclusive guide is a surefire way for folks of all genders to master the art of pleasure.
A NY minute with for the launch of Womanizer Enhance, the first product to combine vibrations + Pleasure Air tech. Here are a few numbers from their recent research:
.
•36% of menopausal women experience symptom relief through self-pleasure😊
.
•47% of testers had multiples using the new Enhance.💃🏻
.
•70% report that self-pleasure reduces the intensity of period pains😮💨
.
The Enhance is an *actual* disruptor in the sexual wellness space with a 100% ohhh rate in testing, so I’ve shared the link in my bio.
.
And that last pic is from the @nyuniversity Sex Therapist club founded by @shrinktwink & Yvonne Nguyen. The future is bright! (Thanks for the intro, @moontower_counseling!)
🛳️Highlights of the Temptation Cruise:
.
▪️Workshops by Yours Truly & fellow facilitators @frostedpleasure, @livlove_inc, @sexwithalexa & @kateshelor. We covered everything from full-body pleasure, sensual dance and body confidence to dirty talk and hypnotic sex. Be sure to follow them (they’re tagged in the pics too)!
.
▪️Port day in Ochi. We headed a few miles along the coast for a quick visit with my cousins & their turtle.
.
▪️The beautiful and impressive AirOtic performance
.
▪️Watching hundreds of flying fish (they look like tiny birds) from the stern of the ship (no pics of this or the jello wrestling contest!).
.
▪️Glow party with DJ Tatiana — the best vibes possible on the dance floor.
.
Temptation cruises are a blast with wild pool parties, themed enterainment, a host of workshops and the most fun and laid-back crowd. We sail out of Miami again in November. Link is in my bio and if you prefer a couples’ experience, check out the next Desire Cruise out of Rome in May (link also in bio).
I’m late to post, but the lessons this time around were worth the wait IMHO. Starting with📍 Boston…
.
Thank you to EO Boston for hosting me! Working with entrepreneurs who recognize the undeniable flow between relationship and business resources is always a highlight.
.
One of the couples reminded me of an important truth:
“Your nervous system doesn’t clock out when you do.”
.
Work stress doesn’t just stay at the office—it follows you home, impacting communication, intimacy, and overall connection. Emotional exhaustion can create distance, but intentional down-regulation strategies can help:
.
▪️Post-work calming rituals (e.g. listening to an uplifting song, a quick stretch or 7 deep breaths, gratitude journal entry)
▪️Affectionate greetings (Be the dog! If you know, you know.)
▪️Shared laughter
▪️Small moments of connection (e.g. thoughtful texts, sharing memes, holding hands, 60 second favors)
.
Simple practices can help calm the nervous system and create space for stronger relationships. And the benefits go both ways—healthy relationships improve resilience, focus, and leadership. Q: Are you intentional about trying to check your work stress at the door before joining your loved one(s) at home?
