  • Are you finding that pleasure has slipped down your list of priorities? Have you ever not wanted sex and wondered if that’s normal? Or considered how motherhood reshapes sexual identity? In her raw, honest, funny, and emotional TEDx talk, Lisa Opel, an acclaimed multilingual author, confronts these nuanced and often taboo themes head-on. Lisa's voice resonates across the spectrum of sexual discourse.
    Lisa Opel, a multilingual author born in Germany, raised in Portugal, and educated in England, has revolutionised the world of literature with her captivating erotic works. Combining light-heartedness, education, and taboo exploration, Lisa's writing rekindles passion and encourages open dialogue. Her diverse background, from working in offices to factories and a fetish shop, has provided her with profound insights into human desire. Featured on esteemed platforms such as WDR, Spiegel Online, SIXX, and global podcasts, Lisa aims to introduce a new genre of literature to unassuming audiences. Additionally, she serves as a strong advocate for struggling mothers, helping them navigate personal transformation.
    Lisa challenges societal norms, encouraging a deeper understanding of long-term relationships and inspiring individuals to embrace their desires. Join Lisa Opel as she unlocks the power of love through her transformative words! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
