For Play Story
Hi, I'm Victoria, the founder of For Play and an Intimacy Coach.
After 20 years in marketing and 8 years as a career and executive coach, I embarked on an intimacy journey. I noticed how my successful career was making me undateable: I struggled form meaningful relationships and connect with my erotic self and. My personal journey fuelled my professional education, culminating in a Sex Coach certification.
While diving into the latest science of sex, I was blown away by how much misinformation we’ve all absorbed: media and movies often portray intimacy in completely inaccurate ways.
This realisation motivated me to launch Couples Chocolates, an intimate gift designed to help couples make time for intimacy, and start an Intimacy Coaching practice.

For Play Couples Chocolates
Create time for intimacy and play
Sex science highlights the importance of prioritising intimacy. This inspired For Play Couples Chocolate: an experience designed to create time for connection. Whether it’s a vulnerable conversation, connecting hugs, or a passionate escapade, making time for each other is the key to maintaining the spark.
Top intimacy tips from Victoria
Whether you're looking to spice things up in your dating life or rekindle the spark with your partner, these tips will enhance intimacy and connection.
Scheduling intimacy is the new sexy. We need to carve out time and create space for desire to awaken (did you know that women tend to have responsive rather than spontaneous desire?) and for intimacy to flourish.
Having your own “sex o’clock,” or better said, “intimacy time,” boosts anticipation and desire. Set a regular time for hugging, kissing, massages, or any form of intimacy.
Transitioning from intense professional lives to our erotic selves requires conscious effort. I encourage all couples to create an intimacy ritual to facilitate this transition.
The ritual might include showering, setting the ambiance with candles, playing erotic music, using special scents, and wearing seductive underwear. This helps disconnect from everyday worries, become more present in your bodies, and reconnect with your erotic selves.
Simmering involves building sexual energy together, much like you did when you were dating.
Pull your partner close and kiss them passionately. Hug them with your whole body and touch them sensually. Breathe in the scent of their skin. Spend time naked in bed, hugging and caressing each other. Make out passionately when you see each other, or give them a playful spank to let them feel your desire.
Multiple studies highlight that sexual communication is crucial not only for sexual satisfaction but also for the overall quality of long-term relationships. However, talking about sex often feels more vulnerable than the act itself.
Practice makes perfect. In my coaching practice, I guide couples on how to do relationship check-ins by asking, “How can I make you happier?”, giving daily appreciation and compliments, and re-discovering each other with card games featuring intimate questions to deepen their intimacy.
Engage in exciting, inspiring, and connecting activities together. This could involve exploring new destinations, visiting new spas, trying new exercises, and indulging in new fantasies—novelty is crucial to sustaining desire.
Plan an adventurous holiday together, learn a new language, try a new sport, or engage in meditation. These new activities will deepen your intimacy and create fertile ground for desire.
