Synopsis
In a world where an old superstition warns women against placing their purses on the floor lest they find themselves broke, Zara Daley knows that the most valuable “purse” is not merely a handbag or even a symbol of femininity—it’s the heart that beats within us. As an Intimacy Coordinator by day and an aspiring sex and relationship therapist by night, Zara is on the cusp of completing the final session for her certification.
Her mission? To empower her clients—Raqui, the fiery femme with a passion for life, and Dani, the gentle, more masc-presenting sub—to reclaim their worth and learn to lift their own emotional burdens. But as Zara navigates their journeys, she must confront her own challenges, discovering when to set her own heart down and when to protect it fiercely.
With a blend of humor and vulnerability, Zara breaks the fourth wall, employing quirky therapeutic tactics and an animated alter ego that only she can see. Join her on this wild ride of self-discovery, where she guides her clients—and herself—toward an understanding of love, intimacy, and the importance of honoring the treasures within.
