The Big Gray
EROTIC Orientation
A Peak EDU micro-experience. Because the erotic is how you feel alive.

IT’S EASY TO FORGET what aliveness feels like.
The days blur, the lists lengthen, and something once vivid begins to fade. We move through our routines, efficient, productive, accomplished, but a quiet ache hums underneath: You ask yourself, "Is this it?"
This is what we call The Big Gray.
But within every woman, there’s a pulse—a rhythm that remembers pleasure, desire, sensation, wonder...
A whisper that says...there’s more...

DAILY RITUAL
ABOUT the CREATOR
I’m Andrea Battiola, Ed.S., LPC, LMHC psychotherapist, sex therapist, and educator.
My work has always centered on this question:
What does it mean to exist erotically alive, in our bodies, our love, our everyday lives?
Clinically trained and licensed in Washington, D.C., Virginia, and Washington State, my background spans sexual health education, trauma-informed therapy, and the nuanced dynamics of long-term love.
But my true passion lies in transforming how we talk about sex – bringing honesty, humor, and depth to the conversations most people shy away from.
My clients would tell you I balance compassion with directness, always bringing warmth, curiosity, and a touch of levity to our work together.
And my mission? To make our collective relationship with sex more open, informed, and fulfilling...one meaningful conversation at a time.
I’ve spent over a decade immersed in the study of human sexuality, relational dynamics, and psychotherapeutic healing—driven by a deep desire to shift the way we talk about sex and connection in our culture.
AS seen in:
The erotic is not a question only of what we do. It is a question of how acutely and fully we can feel in the doing.”
— Audre Lorde
Let's Begin
Because eroticism and intimacy isn’t something we find ... it’s something we practice.
This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who you’ve always been, the part of you that knows how to feel alive.
