About Scott Schwertly
Hi, I'm Scott. I didn't arrive at this work because I had it all figured out. I arrived because I didn't — and I was tired of pretending otherwise.
Seven years into our marriage, Brittney and I hit a wall. The love was real but our intimate life had become something we were maintaining rather than genuinely inhabiting. So we got intentional — explored guided audio, the Erotic Blueprint framework, and the honest conversations we'd been avoiding. That season changed our marriage and the direction of my life.
Coelle grew directly out of that experience. We couldn't find what we needed so we built it. The coaching practice followed from the same conviction: everyone deserves a guide for this part of life — not when things fall apart, but from the beginning.
My Approach
I work at the intersection of performance psychology, somatic practice, and genuine human connection. My background in sport psychology gave me a deep understanding of what happens in the mind and body under pressure — the overthinking, the self-monitoring, the performance anxiety that shows up just as powerfully in the bedroom as it does on the field. The same psychological patterns that limit athletic performance limit intimate performance. And the same principles that unlock one can unlock the other.
My coaching draws on several frameworks I've found genuinely transformative — both in my own life and in the lives of clients:
Somatic and body-based practices that help people move out of their heads and into genuine embodied presence — feeling rather than analyzing, being moved rather than managed.
The Erotic Blueprint framework which helps individuals and couples understand their unique arousal language and communicate it to partners with clarity and without shame.
David Deida's work on polarity and the masculine/feminine dynamic in relationships — particularly useful for couples navigating the loss of erotic charge that can develop over time in long-term partnerships.
Performance psychology principles drawn from my graduate work in sport psychology — applied to the specific ways that overthinking, vulnerability avoidance, and confidence deficits show up in intimate life.
I bring all of this through the lens of my own ongoing personal work — because I believe the best coaches are still in the arena themselves. This is not theoretical work for me. It is lived, embodied, and deeply personal.
My Background
M.S. in Sport Psychology
My graduate work focused on confidence, mental conditioning, and performance under pressure — the same psychological patterns that show up in intimate relationships. I apply this performance-based framework to help clients navigate overthinking, vulnerability, and confidence in their intimate lives with clarity and structure.
M.B.A. in Marketing
My MBA sharpened my understanding of human behavior, motivation, and decision-making — insight that translates directly into how people pursue connection and desire. It also reflects my broader experience building and leading organizations with strategy and intentionality.
B.A. in Communications
With a foundation in communication studies, I've spent years studying how language shapes perception, connection, and influence. Clear communication is one of the most powerful tools for building intimacy — and it remains central to my coaching approach.
Beyond the Coaching Room
I'm the founder of Coelle — a guided audio intimacy platform reaching individuals and couples across the country. I co-host Do You Feel That? — a podcast about desire, connection, and what it means to feel fully alive — with my wife Brittney. I'm the author of Guided: Why We All Need a Guide in the Bedroom. And I'm a Nashville resident, a husband, and a father of three who is navigating the same busy, full, beautiful, complicated life that most of my clients are navigating too.
I work with a select number of individuals and couples privately here in Nashville and virtually nationwide. If you're ready to stop leaving this dimension of your life to chance — I'd genuinely love to talk.
