Pamela, a veteran advocate, activist and educator (yes, she’s been on Oprah!) has taken her no-holds-barred pioneering work in infertility to a new arena: genuine sexual liberation and self-acceptance for all women. Pamela’s full-bodied mix of intelligence, humor and startling vulnerability has made her one of the most mediagenic advocates for integrated sexuality and a taboo-buster around body image.

Pamela’s trademark openness and humor blew the lid off one of the worst kept secrets in this country: the power of the erotic core buried inside every woman to transform her life. Pamela has found the secret sauce and she is willing to share the recipe.

She’s a featured blogger on Psychology Today and The Huffington Post whose entries are regularly picked up by major media outlets--from Jezebel and New York Magazine to The New York Times. And on January 18, 2011, Pamela’s first book, “Shameless: How I Ditched the Diet, Got Naked and Found True Pleasure and Somehow Got Home In Time To Cook Dinner” hit the shelves.

Months before the memoir’s release, the buzz was spectacular. Notables such as Dr. Christiane Northrup called Pamela “a living, breathing embodiment of the power of pleasure to transform one’s life.” And Pamela did it without losing one inch from her curvaceous Size 14 frame.

Pamela’s mission is to launch other women on their own journey to self-love. Pulling the essential lessons from her own hysterically funny path, Pamela is teaching women how to harness sensual pleasure to effect change from the inside out. Pamela discovered that integrated sexuality and touch could break through the walls of shame that keep us tamped down and locked up, that inhibit us from going after what we want, and from living full-throttle and pedal to the metal. It is possible to heal dysfunctional relationships with food, sex, and fashion and let ourselves be seen for the wonders that we are. We are entitled to be as big as we feel in all spheres of our life. There’s room on the field for all of us.

The Visionary behind the hugely successful "Back to The Body: Sensuous Retreats For Women" on it's fourth year, 21 sold out retreats and a 98% return rate; Pamela is on a mission to reach even more women. With a growing international clientele who have heard her rallying cry that it's time to stop spending a lifetime sublimating their sexuality, often with dire consequences to their physical, emotional and relationship well-being - Pamela offers one on one sessions to every day mothers, daughters, wives and girlfriends — inspiring them to find their own paths to becoming women in full.

From New Orleans, Texas, NY, California and Seattle to women women seeking out Pamela from Dubai, Norway, South Africa, Ireland, The United Kingdom, Hungry, Canada, Spain, Denmark, and Iran ---- Women are stopping the dance of "waiting for someday"and enjoying being female, right now. It is possible to be free. 

Among her many accomplishments, Pamela Madsen is Founder and served as the first Executive Director of the American Fertility Association (AFA) where her work and leadership were honored by organizations including RESOLVE NYC and the New York City Chapter of Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays. She’s been called to give testimony at hearings for the National Institutes of Health, FDA, the President’s Council on Bioethics and the Centers for Disease Control. She spearheaded the launch of World Fertility Awareness Month (WFAM), an international infertility public awareness movement that grew to more than 36 organizations from Africa, Europe, Latin America and Asia.
