Nicole Buratti is definitely not your average girl!   She’s a city girl, born and raised in New York City, who's lived in a bunch of cool places all over the world. She couldn’t decide if her favorite was Paris or Aspen. Sex advice has always been her jam. As a Women's Sex Expert, she does things differently than your average sexpert. Through her ever-popular services, she helps people have mind-blowing sex, date better, and develop meaningful relationships and/or reconnect to their partner. ``How?,`` you ask. She helps you have better sex by connecting the dots between mind, body, sex.   For as long as she can remember, she’s been insatiably curious about the human body. She wanted to know, what exactly is it that makes people genuinely happy, healthy and emotionally fulfilled? Why do some of us struggle with sexual dysfunction? She was also passionate about a multitude of seemingly unconnected things: writing, research, love and psychology. Just to name a few. She’s worked in the luxury fashion industry for companies like Gucci, Prada, Escada, and Chanel, in serving VIP clients. She’s dressed celebrities for major events like world-famous concerts, movies, press conferences, and appearances that you would recognize if she were allowed to tell you about them. She managed major Fashion Shows for the industry’s top designers making front page of Women’s Wear Daily (WWD). She’s rubbed shoulders with World Leaders over lunch and Page-Sixers over cocktails. Through emotional support, she helped friends, celebrities and non-celebrities look and feel confident and empowered.   After many years at corporate jobs, returning to school as an adult to study nursing, and a lot of angst trying to choose just one thing to be in life, she realized that her unusual combination of interests and skills was a strength, not a liability. She left the glamour of the fashion industry to train to be a yoga teacher, focusing on yoga for women and women's health. She went on to study at the Integrative Women's Health Institute for nearly 2 years to become a Certified Women's Health Coach. She has about 30 certifications in health, sex, and life coaching.
