Kaleigh Trace lives in Toronto but dreams of Nova Scotia. Like many writers, she is pulled toward the immutable language of the coastline. Like many therapists, she finds solace in the ocean. Kaleigh's written work can be found in The Coast, No More Potlucks, Shameless Magazine, The Huffington Post and on CBC Radio. Her first book, Hot, Wet, and Shaking: How I Learned to Talk about Sex was published by Invisible Publishing in 2014 and won the Evelyn Richardson Non-Fiction Award. Kaleigh's therapeutic work centres on the certain truth that our intimate relationships are sites of healing. As a couple's therapist, Kaleigh has witnessed the transformative power of compassionate love, and her practice promotes this ethic. Kaleigh has a Masters of Science in Couple's and Family Therapy and passable punch-needling skills. As a queer, disabled femme, Kaleigh is always curious about your face care routine. Talk to her about your moisturizer.
“Hot, Wet, and Shaking is written in the tone of a trusted and cheeky friend, confessing secrets that shake loose their shame when spoken aloud. This is not the sex advice of a poised, multi-orgasmic, inaccessible, or clinical expert, but rather the honest musings of a woman in a pair of yesterday’s dirty jeans.”—National Post “Hot, Wet and Shaking is… a funny, fast and absorbing read; powerful, empowering, and so important.”—Pickle Me This “This book is a much needed lighthouse that guides us all with love and laughter.”—Broken Pencil “Honesty, self-awareness, a wicked sense of humour, an unflinching sense of the ridiculous. You generally need all of these to be able to talk as candidly about your sex life as Kaleigh Trace has done… she sheds light on sexual stories and scripts we don’t usually get to hear but which are a part of a lot of people’s lives.”—Ready, Sexy, Able “Hot, Wet & Shaking is laugh-out-loud funny in some parts, incredibly touching in others (pun partially intended)… Trace’s book is like a talk with an old friend you can share anything with.”—Sexual Health Lunenburg “Hot, Wet, and Shaking is an important read…This book fights the myths about sex and disability and starts discussions that are long overdue.”—The Dialog “Trace has learned to talk about sex and she has learned to do it extremely well.”—The Coast
