About Carina Baldi
"Lingerie is more than what we wear beneath our clothes; it’s a whisper of empowerment, a celebration of individuality, and a way of honoring ourselves."
My name is Carina Baldi, and at the heart of everything I do is a fascination with people and the stories that shape them. For nearly two decades, I’ve worked in healthcare, collaborating with teams to make meaningful differences in people’s lives. Those years taught me the value of listening deeply, caring intuitively, and appreciate the beauty of connection.
Traveling and working internationally broadened my perspective, enriching my understanding of cultures and the diverse ways people express themselves.
A Life-Changing Pause
In 2018, my life transformed with the birth of my daughter. Motherhood reshaped my identity in ways I could never have predicted.
When the pandemic arrived, I felt called to pause. I stepped away on a sabbatical to restore my mind and body, and spend few months in Brazil, just me, my daughter, and the embrace of my homeland, brought me back to the essence of who I am.
It was during this time that I discovered INTENSIFY ME in São Paulo. After 3.5 years of breastfeeding, I had grown uninspired by typical nursing bras, which never felt like me. Then I tried INTENSIFY ME. And everything changed.
"The lingerie didn’t just look beautiful; it made me feel sensual, confident, and more connected to myself."
Each piece became a celebration of my identity, a reminder that lingerie could be an instrument of empowerment and self-expression. Every return to Europe saw my suitcase overflowing with lace petticoats, delicate bras, and elegant bodysuits. INTENSIFY ME became more than a brand; it became part of my journey of rediscovery.
Bringing INTENSIFY ME to Europe
Inspired by this transformative experience, I partnered with Priscila Gomide, the visionary founder and designer of INTENSIFY ME, to introduce the brand to Europe in late 2023.
My dream became tangible when I opened Intensify Me Boutique in Basel, Switzerland, a space where women can explore, celebrate, and connect with their own beauty. Every piece in the boutique is more than fabric and lace, it is a story, a celebration of individuality, and a reminder that women deserve to feel empowered every day.
"This boutique is my invitation to women to embrace their story, honor their body, and feel confident in every moment."
Through this journey, my hope is to inspire you to embrace your own story, celebrate your individuality, and choose lingerie that elevates your spirit every day.
Welcome to INTENSIFY ME Europe.
A space made for women, by women, and always about women.
