Meet Arielle Zadok, ABS, The Pleasure Producer
My mission is to help people feel safe enough to be expansive—on set and in real life—so they can create Movie Magic Moments that are unforgettable, embodied, and deeply true.
Through intimacy coordination and couples coaching, I bridge the worlds of performance and pleasure to rewrite the narratives we’ve been taught about sex, intimacy, and connection.
Because whether it’s a love scene on screen or a moment of real vulnerability behind closed doors, magic doesn’t just happen. It’s produced—with trust, intention, communication, co-creation and consent.
Movie Magic Moments don’t just happen—they require vision.
A vision for what’s possible when people feel safe in their bodies, seen in their desires, and empowered to express their truth—on camera and in the bedroom.
When couples learn how to produce those moments in their real lives, everything shifts: pleasure deepens, communication opens, and intimacy becomes something they can trust, not tiptoe around.
But too many people are stuck waiting.
Waiting for someone else to initiate. Waiting for their partner to change. Waiting for desire to just “come back.” Or in the case of film and TV, waiting for someone on set to speak up, slow down, or make it feel safe to do the work.
I know because I’ve been there—on both sides.
As a filmmaker, as a coach, and as someone who’s lived through both dissociation and deep connection, I’ve seen what happens when intimacy is created with intention.
It’s not just safer, it’s better.
I spent years in relationships that looked good on paper—emotionally safe, supportive, even loving—but behind closed doors, I was bored, shut down, and completely disconnected from my desire.
I wasn’t afraid of sex, it just didn’t feel good.
It was systematic, sometimes painful, and rarely pleasurable, let alone exciting. There was no spark. No seduction. No vision. My partners didn’t have the skills—and I didn’t have the language to ask for what I wanted beyond “can you go down on me?”
I knew I was meant for more, but I stayed.
Because it felt safe enough. Because no one ever taught me that sex could be creative. That intimacy could be built. That desire could be directed.
So I accepted what I thought to be my truth; sex just wasn’t going to be fun for me. I turned my sensuality down, and I avoided having sex, even though I loved my partners.
Meanwhile, I was working on commercials, music videos, tv shows and films—bringing high-pressure creative visions to life in my day to day.
I could wrangle a crew, solve impossible problems, manage talent, budgets, egos, and chaos—and somehow still make it all feel effortless on screen.
I was producing magic for everyone else—except myself.
The truth is, I’d been studying sex and sexuality for as long as I could remember. It was the thing I was always curious about, always chasing answers for, always trying to understand more deeply—even when it felt too taboo to say out loud.
In 2014, I became a certified holistic health coach. My focus back then?
Helping people shift their mindset, envision a future that excited them, and actually build the tools they needed to get there. Even then, I was guiding people toward transformation—one powerful choice at a time.
Eventually, I brought those skills home to myself.
I turned my lifelong self-study into formal certifications. I got trained in sex education, trauma-informed care, intimacy coordination, embodiment, communication, kink, consent, and nervous system work.
And I started making new choices—stepping out of patterns that felt “safe enough” and into experiences built around vision, presence, play, and erotic truth.
Because the best sex I’ve ever had didn’t just happen.
It was intentional.
It had a vision.
It was produced.
Now I help couples and creatives do the same.
I bring all of my experience—two decades in production, years of training in sex and relationships, and a coach’s mindset for transformation—to help people create sex and intimacy that’s safe, connected, and unforgettable.
Because when you feel safe, you can be expansive.
And when you’re expansive?
That’s when the Movie Magic happens.

"Speaking with Arielle is like connecting with your wisest, truest friend—the kind who knows just what to ask and exactly how to hold space. I came in not knowing what I needed, and left with clarity, confidence, and a deeper connection to myself. She made it feel easy to be vulnerable, and somehow turned a simple conversation into a portal for healing. Her presence is calm, intuitive, and real—and the transformation felt both profound and grounded."

"Arielle understands coaching on a soul level. She doesn’t just listen—she gets it. She spots the work that needs to be done, guides you through it with care, and helps you forge entirely new paths forward. I was feeling stuck in my own story, cycling through patterns I didn’t know how to name—until she helped me break them open. With her support, I transformed that hazy, disconnected feeling into clear, aligned action—and I actually stayed accountable to it."

"This work didn’t just shift my mindset—it shifted how I move through life. I didn’t expect a single session to unlock so much, but Arielle guided me into a space where my truth could finally be heard. She helped me slow down, catch the beliefs that were quietly sabotaging me, and start living with more intention and intimacy. She’s the kind of coach who brings clarity without pressure, and holds space in a way that makes you feel deeply safe and seen."

Meet Arielle Zadok, The Pleasure Producer redefining real-world intimacy—one Movie Magic Moment at a time.
Arielle Zadok, ABS, is the woman behind The Pleasure Producer—a personal brand that weaves together her work as a Certified Intimacy Coordinator, Board-Certified Sexologist, producer, coach, and educator. With over 20 years of experience in film, television, and advertising, Arielle guides both people and productions through the nuanced terrain of sex, storytelling, and real-world intimacy.
She began her career leading commercial campaigns for major brands like MLB, ESPN, Nickelodeon, and Jordan—working as a producer, 1st AD, and in other senior production roles across high-pressure, celebrity-driven sets. She later joined the leadership team at Disney Television during the pandemic, where she helped establish studio-wide health and safety protocols and personally oversaw more than 350 episodes of scripted television across pilots, series, and late-night programming.
Throughout her career, Arielle has worked closely with A-list celebrities, executives, and high-profile talent—navigating the nuanced, high-stakes environments where clarity, confidentiality, and emotional intelligence are everything. That experience informs her calm, collaborative approach to both intimacy coordination and coaching.
She currently serves as Director of Care & Consent at The Play, a premier lifestyle organization, where she’s introduced new standards and trainings for immersive erotic experiences across kink, non-monogamy, and play party culture—deepening her expertise in real-world intimacy and consent-forward culture building.
Outside of production, Arielle is the founder of The Sexy Directory, a trusted hub for pleasure education and resources, and host of Birds and Bees Don’t Fck, a show that explores the flawed sex ed we grew up with—and the messy (and sometimes hilarious) ways we had to figure it out on our own.
Arielle’s work is anchored in her signature Movie Magic Moments method—a framework that blends a production planning approach, nervous system attunement, and practical sex education to help people co-create real-life intimacy that feels deeply connected, exciting again, and uniquely theirs. She currently brings this work to life through Fck Like The Movies—an 8-week group program for couples in long-term relationships who are stuck in routine and craving more: more turn-on, more creativity, more intimacy they can actually feel.
Across every project, Arielle is known for helping people feel safe enough to feel expansive—whether she’s choreographing intimacy on screen or helping clients rewrite their personal erotic scripts.
Arielle is represented by United Talent Agency, Production Arts.
