Present Woman: Our Pleasure, Our Power

”I’ve never read someone articulate the connection between women’s bodies, our pleasure, and our power as clearly as Narkis Alon in Present Woman. This book is timely and important.”

Kate Northrup, bestselling author of Do Less and host of Plenty

With the sensitivity of an old friend, Narkis draws you in to accompany her on this journey toward self-love and discovery. Out of her willingness to be vulnerable, a tremendous inner power emerges. Her courage to reveal her longings and truth, inspires the reader to explore their own.

The book 'Present Woman' is an honest and rare first-person account for female seekers and curious men: A woman in her twenties embarks to discover her sexuality and learns how her journey towards pleasure affects her career, her attitude to money, and her relationships.

Narkis Alon participates in sexuality workshops around the world, leads entrepreneurial workshops, marries her true love, undergoes an Ayahuasca ceremony, gives birth, speaks at the U.N., and explores and affirms the connection between fulfillment and pleasure. Through the accompanying booklet, readers are invited to embark on a personal journey to discover their own pleasure, awaken their body, and express the creativity stirring within them.


“At the age of 27, I was chosen to appear on Forbes' list of '30 Most Promising Young People'. I looked at my picture in that article, at the smile spread across my face, at the jeans suit I was wearing, my hairstyle, how my work was described, and felt light-years away from that person. Here I was, presented as a young woman who had realized her potential and was guiding other women to do the same, when in reality I was not enjoying my work, I was neglecting my friends and family, and worst of all – I HAD NO SEX LIFE with my husband. Pleasure was not a part of my life and I was tired most of the time. I realized I was living a lie."
