About Nadine & The Inner Vibe
About Me
Hi, I’m Nadine Midthun — a Wisconsin mama of two, certified sexual health educator, creative maker, and the founder of The Inner Vibe — a space created to help women reconnect with their bodies, rebuild confidence, and rediscover pleasure, creativity, and purpose in their everyday lives.
But my story didn’t start here.
Growing up, sex wasn’t something we talked about at the kitchen table — it was whispered about in hushed tones between friends who knew just as little as I did. It was something to be embarrassed by, something “good girls” didn’t talk about… let alone enjoy.
Then, when I was 19, I went to my first Pure Romance party — and something shifted.
I realized that intimacy didn’t have to be a chore or a source of shame. It could be empowering. Healing. Even fun.
Dare I say… orgasmic?!
Despite earning a degree in Mechanical Design in 2015, life took a different — and better — path. I moved back to my hometown to take a break from chasing an architecture career. What I thought was a failure turned into something far more meaningful: reconnecting with my high school crush, getting married, and becoming a mom to two incredible children.
While I once believed moving back home meant I had failed, it actually led me straight to my family — and ultimately, to myself.
In 2016, shortly after moving home, I joined Pure Romance — initially for the discount (because honestly… I wanted everything) and a little extra income. But it quickly became clear that those parties were about so much more than products. Women weren’t just curious about pleasure — they were craving connection, validation, and real education about their bodies.
That realization lit something in me.
Through Pure Romance, I studied and became a Certified Sexual Health Educator. I began hosting judgment-free spaces where women could laugh loudly, ask real questions, and finally learn the things we were never taught growing up. I witnessed firsthand how powerful it was when women understood their anatomy, their desires, and the truth that pleasure isn’t selfish — it’s essential.
Then 2020 arrived — and with it, motherhood, a pandemic, and a massive pivot.
I took my work online, reaching women across the country through virtual presentations, social media, and educational content that blended real talk with humor and heart. I also left my 8–5 to build my life and business from home. My son was a newborn as the world shifted, and my daughter was born in 2022.
And with the birth of my daughter… came the birth of my sewing machine.
Creating with my hands has always been grounding for me. When things feel heavy or out of alignment, I know that if you give my hands some materials and a little time, something beautiful will come from it. When I found out I was having a little girl, I knew I wanted to learn how to make dresses she could one day play in.
I was gifted my sewing machine just days before she was born.
I started small — bowl koozies, keychains — learning the machine stitch by stitch. Eventually, I moved on to dresses for my daughter… and then for myself. That creative outlet became another form of self-care, healing, and self-expression.
Now, you’ll often find me live on TikTok showcasing not only self-love and intimacy products, but also crafting tools, handmade projects, and everyday Midwest mom life — including toys and creative supplies my kids play with while I work.
Because wellness doesn’t exist in a bubble.
It lives alongside laundry piles, snack breaks, and half-finished projects on the dining room table.
That’s when it clicked.
Pleasure isn’t just about sex.
Creativity isn’t just a hobby.
Both are forms of reconnection.
With our bodies.
With our confidence.
With ourselves.
That vision became The Inner Vibe.
My Mission
The Inner Vibe exists to remind women that you’re not broken — you’re becoming.
I help women — especially stay-at-home and work-from-home moms — navigate the messy middle of motherhood, identity, intimacy, and creativity through education, storytelling, and thoughtfully curated products.
From body-safe pleasure and confidence-boosting lingerie to self-care essentials and (soon) handmade creations stitched with intention — everything here is designed to support your whole self.
Because when women feel good in their bodies and connected to their creativity, they show up differently — in motherhood, relationships, and most importantly, for themselves.
