Self-Paced Online Course
Permission to Want
Learn to feel what you want — so you can stop second-guessing and start choosing.
This is the foundational course behind everything Chrissy teaches. Over 6 modules and 24 lessons, you'll learn the somatic practices, emotional frameworks, and embodiment tools that give you direct access to what you feel — so desire stops being something you talk yourself out of and starts being something you can act from.

A Self-Paced Course With Chrissy Powers
Permission to Want
Six modules. Twenty-four lessons. One way back to yourself.
For Whom
This course is for you if:
- You make good decisions on paper but feel disconnected from them afterward
- You say yes and feel off, or say no and feel guilty, and can't locate why
- You know what you should want but can't feel what you actually want
- You've done therapy, read the books, and something is still missing
- You're ready to work with your body, not just your mind
And Not
This course is not for you if:
- You're looking for a quick-fix mindset hack
- You're not open to somatic or body-based practices
- You want live, real-time coaching (see 1:1 Coaching instead)
- You're in active crisis (therapy is a better fit right now)
Course Curriculum
Six modules. One through-line.
Each module builds on the last — from reconnecting with your body to making decisions you can actually feel good about.
Module 01
The Body as Signal
4 lessons
You've been overriding your body's signals for so long they've gone quiet. This module reintroduces you to sensation as information — not distraction, not weakness, not something to manage.
- 01What embodiment actually means (and what it isn't)
- 02Your nervous system is not your enemy
Module 02
The Architecture of Wanting
4 lessons
Desire doesn't disappear — it goes underground. This module maps what happened to your wanting and begins the work of bringing it back to the surface.
- 01Why smart women stop wanting
- 02The difference between preference and desire
Module 03
Feeling Without Fixing
4 lessons
Most of us were never taught to feel something without immediately trying to resolve it. This module teaches you to stay — and why staying is where the shift actually happens.
- 01The impulse to explain away what you feel
- 02Sitting with discomfort without solving it
Module 04
Permission Structures
4 lessons
The internal rules running your life were written a long time ago — and they're still enforcing themselves. This module is about finding them, questioning them, and deciding which ones you actually want to keep.
- 01Mapping your internal permission system
- 02Where the rules came from
Module 05
Saying It Out Loud
4 lessons
Knowing what you want inside and being able to say it are two different skills. This module closes the gap — from internal recognition to external expression, without qualification.
- 01Why we qualify, minimize, and hedge
- 02Desire as a complete sentence
Module 06
Living It
4 lessons
The work doesn't end with the course. This module is about integrating what you've built into the actual texture of your daily life — decisions, relationships, and the moments you'd normally default.
- 01Building a daily embodiment practice
- 02Decision-making from the inside out
I came into this work thinking I had a decision-making problem. What I found was that I'd been making decisions for everyone except myself for so long I'd lost access to what I actually wanted. That changed.

Your Instructor
Chrissy Powers
Licensed Therapist and Embodiment Coach
I built this course because the most important work I do isn't in the room with a client — it's in what a client is able to do on a Tuesday afternoon when nothing dramatic is happening and they have to make a small decision that somehow feels impossible.
This course is the foundation of that. It's the somatic and emotional groundwork that makes everything else possible — the 1:1 work, the group container, the clarity that starts showing up in places you didn't expect.
I've been a therapist for over 10 years. I built this from that practice and from my own experience of exactly what this course teaches. I know what it takes to rebuild access to what you feel. This is how.
