Grace Alice is based in Kerry, Ireland. She offers one-on-one and couples coaching sessions and workshops to groups, schools and organisations. Her experience as a sex educator led her to write the brilliant book 'Sex Educated' which you can buy at https://sexualhealthwest.ie/shop/ or from her website. It is a culmination of all the questions she heard when teaching young people and addressing them in a fresh, modern way with beautiful graphics. It's aimed at teens, young adults, parents and teachers but Grace is finding its popular with people who did not get a great sex education and who want a more positive understanding about sex and our sexuality in later life.
