About the Creatrix

I’m Nadiah Christensen, a designer, creative director, and mother, based on Gundungurra land in the Southern Highlands of Australia.

Growing up in Canberra, I was surrounded by a large, close-knit family of women who were open and comfortable discussing womanhood and sexuality. My grandmother, Mary, was a strong and loving matriarch who championed the arts and had a deep love for the beach.

With over two decades of experience in the fashion and apparel industry, I founded a successful men’s intimate apparel business, Cocksox®, in 2006. My focus has since shifted to sustainability and zero waste. Before venturing into fashion, I worked as a graphic designer in both Sydney and London.

After years of juggling motherhood, running a home, and managing a business, I experienced burnout and illness. This challenging period prompted me to question the modern concept of time and the culture that places so much emphasis on constant productivity and growth.

In 2020, a chance discovery in a bookshop sparked a life-changing idea. I came across the ancient Celtic lunisolar calendar, which balances times of productivity and rest according to the lunar cycle. This inspired me to create my first lunar diary as a tool to help foster a more harmonious life by connecting with lunar and natural cycles.

In 2022, I officially launched my first Lunar Diary, and each year it has deepened, offering more valuable lunar and cyclical wisdom.

Through my personal journey of aligning with these cycles, I’ve found greater health, balance, and joy in my life. Honouring the cycles has reignited my creative power, which led to the creation of Casa Vulva, a brand dedicated to supporting women in connecting with their creativity, intuition, and power through design and empowering workshops.

Witnessing women transform from feeling shut down to experiencing healthy connection has been a joy for me over the last few years, as well as expressing my own creativity through art and voice.

Now, having come full circle from running a business based on a linear growth model, I am passionate about supporting women in building businesses that honour the natural, cyclical rhythms of life. I’m excited to offer a new initiative designed to help women connect, share, and thrive by aligning their businesses and lives with the lunar cycles, nurturing both the feminine and masculine energies in the process.
