Sex is one of the few things in life that is available to everyone and is free. But achieving enjoyable sex is not possible for many. Some people are held back by fear, ignorance or culture - others don't know or understand their rights around sex. For years public health campaigns focused on warning people about the downsides of sex - danger, disease and death - but increasingly the work is focused on the reasons people have sex. We're in Brazil where we meet Ana Autoestima. She's a ‘virtual friend' who provides positive advice about sex to women living some of the poorest neighbourhoods in Rio de Janeiro. We also visit Iraq to find out how a project is helping women who've suffered from female genital mutilation or FGM to enjoy their bodies and sexuality. And we'll hear from Kenyan celebrity and musician Kaz Karen Lucas whose mission is to change the way Kenyans think about sex.This programme contains adult themes.People Fixing The World from the BBC is about brilliant solutions to the world's problems. We'd love you to let us know what you think and to hear about your own solutions. You can contact us on WhatsApp by messaging +44 8000 321721 or email peoplefixingtheworld@bbc.co.uk.

Your sex life shouldn't be the one area of marriage you never discuss. It's awkward—we get it. And you probably don't think talking about it will help. But research shows that talking about sex is strongly associated with a more thriving sex life. So, how do you actually have the conversation? This week, Juli walks through five conversations couples should be having about sex. If you've ever thought, "We should probably talk about this…" this episode is for you. Co-hosts: Hannah Nitz & Josiah Bogue   Follow-up Resources: Hot Topic Kit: Building a Great Sex Life God, Sex, and Your Marriage by Dr. Juli Slattery Research cited in this episode is from The Secrets of Sex in Marriage by Dr. Michael Sytsma and Shaunti Feldhahn.  

In this episode, Vanessa Marin, renowned sex therapist + her husband Xander Marin get radically honest about self-worth, communication, and desire—including the surprising ways couples lose their sexual connection. They share how they found their way back to intimacy, pleasure, and each other. Ahead, Vanessa + Xander share the messy, vulnerable story of losing their sexual connection, what finally forced them to change, and the surprising ways work, stress, gender roles, and resentment can affect your sex life. We also explore why so many women struggle to receive, and why men may be asking for connection when they're asking for sex. This conversation will make you rethink what you've been prioritizing—and what you've been calling “not enough time” for. Vanessa + Xander get real about desire, pleasure, boundaries, initiation, and the small shifts that can completely change the way you experience intimacy with your partner. We also talk about: Why long-term relationships can quietly lose their sexual spark How sex can become a test of whether you're attractive, wanted, or “enough” Why men may use sex as a way to ask for emotional connection The six different styles of sexual initiation Why women are often socialized to struggle with receiving pleasure How work boundaries transformed Xander's relationship + sex life Masculinity, femininity, and how gender roles show up in the bedroom Why having a shared purpose can deepen your relationship Scheduling sex without making it feel clinical or transactional Why prioritizing pleasure + connection can actually create more space in your life Resources: Follow @vanessaandxander on Instagram for daily laughs and totally doable tips, and check out Ultimate Foreplay Guide and Ultimate Sex Positions at VanessaAndXander.com.

What I Discussed With Dr Shamyra Howard...- What a man actually hears when his partner tells him she needs a toy to finish- The three words she gives every couple before they open the box- What happens to the clitoris once the estrogen goes, and why nobody warned us- The one question to answer before you look at a single product- What a manufacturer found when it stopped testing on twenty-five-year-olds- Why she keeps a box of lube next to her desk and gives it away to everyone- What a partner did with my vibrator that I have not stopped thinking about since- The belief about women's sexuality after 50 she would destroy tomorrowChapters00:00– Sponsor spotlight: https://www.ohmibod.com/00:28 – Breaking the silence on why midlife intimacy is due for a serious upgrade.02:06 – Looking at the outdated societal scripts and the hidden pleasure gap affecting mature women.04:11 – Why physical body changes after 50 make intimate aids essential tools rather than afterthoughts.05:10 – Why male partners often feel replaced by bedroom aids and the crucial mindset shift that changes everything.07:54 – How to smoothly invite a hesitant partner to explore intimate devices together without making it awkward.11:02 – The surprising clinical research showing how certain stimulation devices can actively reduce menopause symptoms.12:18 – Choosing the right sensation when navigating internal versus external stimulation options.13:53 – How targeted clitoral air technology is transforming arousal and natural blood flow in post-menopausal bodies.15:07 – Sponsor spotlight: GITM Playbook http://gitmplaybook.com/SUZANNE2015:53 – A compelling study on how regular orgasms can meaningfully protect and boost your mental health.17:17 – Creative ways to use a multi-use massage wand across the entire full body's erogenous zones with a partner.19:37 – Why investing in high-grade intimate wellness tools is just as essential as your regular self-care routine.20:12 – The non-negotiable rule about pairing the right body-safe lubricants with medical-grade silicone.22:04 – Overcoming the persistent stigma around dryness and why lubrication is basic physiology, not a personal failure.24:04 – Combining topical solutions with daily bedroom habits to turn intimate comfort into a completely seamless experience.25:50 – Letting go of performance anxiety and completely redefining what pleasure feels like after 50.26:48 – The single most damaging myth about ageing women's sexuality that needs to be completely dismantled.27:31 – Wrapping up with community resources and practical ways to keep prioritising your intimate life.Show NotesMost women over 50 were handed a script that said sex was something we provide rather than something we receive. Then our bodies changed, nobody explained why, and we quietly decided the problem was us.In this episode I'm joined by Dr Shamyra Howard, an award-winning sexologist and licensed therapist who founded On the Green Couch. She spends her working week with couples over 50 who cannot say one sentence out loud to each other, and she has heard every version of how that silence ends.I told her something I do not say often. I need a toy about 80% of the time to get there. I have also been with a man who told me toys were not coming into his bedroom, and that put more strain on the relationship than the toy ever could have. Shamyra explained what he was hearing that I had no idea he was hearing.She is just as direct about the industry. Most sex toy companies still design for the average twenty-five year old, and she names the two that stopped and started asking menopausal women what they actually want instead.There is no clinical distance in this conversation and no coyness either. If sex has quietly got harder and you have been waiting for it to sort itself out, this is the episode that tells you what you are waiting on.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- The oral medications for men release the brakes. Sex toys do the same job for women, and Shamyra's line for partners who feel replaced is that tools don't compete, they assist. The toy is a teammate, not a rival.- Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone all fall from around 50. Lubrication drops, clitoral sensation drops and arousal needs more input than it used to. Most male partners have never been told any of this, so they keep doing what always worked.- Invite, don't surprise. Bring your partner into the decision before the toy arrives, frame it as an us thing rather than a me thing, and be clear that if pleasure matters to both of you, this is not optional.- Do not start with the catalogue. Decide where you want the sensation first. Shamyra finds women over 50 are moving away from penetrative options and towards clitoral ones, which narrows hundreds of products to a handful.- Womanizer and We-Vibe are running their market research with menopausal and post-menopausal women rather than twenty-five year olds. Womanizer reports that users of one of its pleasure air devices experienced fewer menopause symptoms, including poor sleep and irritability.- Clitoral suction increases blood flow to the area, and blood flow is where the arousal problem sits. Plenty of women are not orgasming for the simple reason that they were never sufficiently aroused.- A wand earns its price outside the bedroom. Neck, shoulders, feet, behind the knees, the inside of the thighs, and on a partner's body too. Shamyra treats good toys the way we treat hair and nails, as something worth paying for.- Water-based lube only with silicone toys, or the material breaks down. Check the ingredients for glycerin. And needing lube is not a verdict on you or your partner. Wetness depends on hormones and arousal, and the hormones are leaving.About the GuestShamyra holds a Doctorate in Social Work, she's an international award-winning Sexologist, Professor, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist who exposes people to what they're missing from intimacy, so they can have a great relationship and better sex!She's a sexuality media maven featured in major digital and television productions, such as CNN, VOGUE, The New York Times, Peacock, OWN and many more, and she's the Founder of On the Green Couch, where she helps people manage sexual issues, create their best relationships, and have amazing sex.About SuzanneSuzanne Noble is a sex and relationship expert, author, and host of the Sex Advice for Seniors podcast, one of the top-rated shows empowering people 50+ to embrace confident, joyful intimacy.

What I Discussed With Dr Arthur Burnett...- Why the pill has never once started an erection, and what that means for the nights it did nothing- The name he would give erectile dysfunction if he could rename it tomorrow- What his lab found when they went looking for the same response in women- Why the men who most want the pill to work are the ones it helps least- What he thinks of a prescription that takes four clicks and no conversation- The sentence surgeons skip before a prostatectomy, and why he takes the blame for it- What he does when he finds his own name on a supplement bottle- What he refuses to write a prescription for, no matter who is askingChapters00:00 – Intro & Sponsor Spotlight (https://www.ohmibod.com/) 00:26 – Redefining Intimacy After 50: Welcoming Johns Hopkins Urologist Dr. Arthur Burnett 01:33 – Is Erectile Dysfunction Inevitable?

Dr Arthur Burnett has spent forty years trying to tell them otherwise, and for most of those years he has been shouting into the wind.In this episode I'm joined by Dr Arthur Burnett, a urologist at Johns Hopkins, where he has worked for more than four decades. His laboratory did the discovery work in the late 1980s that made the blue pills possible. So I opened by asking him whether he regrets what men have done with them since.Two of the men I loved died. Both of them started here, and I read it as age. One had diabetes and told me flatly that the pill wasn't working, and I believed him. Dr Burnett listened to that story and told me what had been going on inside that man's body while I was busy blaming the wrong thing entirely.He is just as blunt about his own profession. He has watched surgeons treat the cancer and skip the man, and he does not exempt himself from it.There is no shame in this conversation and no bravado either. If your erections have changed and you have been waiting quietly for them to sort themselves out, this is the episode that tells you what you are actually waiting on.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- The oral medications release the brakes on an erection. They cannot start one. Arousal has to be driven from the brain and the body first, which is why a man can take the pill, feel nothing, and wrongly conclude he is finished.- Dr Burnett would call it penile vascular dysfunction. An erection runs on blood vessels, nerves and hormones, the same system that runs the heart, and it usually falters before anything else does.- His lab found the same nitric oxide response in clitoral tissue. The mechanics are close to identical, but female arousal involves hormones and other factors, so one pill was never going to be the answer.- Diabetes damages nerve and blood vessel tissue and behaves in the body almost like premature ageing. These men need more stimulus to drive the response, and the drugs work measurably less well for them.- The online questionnaire skips the health workup. Erectile dysfunction should send a man for a full check, and Dr Burnett calls home delivery without a clinician an unfortunate development in his field.- Nerve sparing surgery lifted recovery rates above zero. Surgeons now map the nerve pathways during the operation, man by man, though the results are still not where he wants them.- He has little faith in nitric oxide supplements and has found his own name on products he knew nothing about. His position comes from society guidelines rather than his own opinion.- Sleep, weight, smoking, movement, stress, cardiovascular health, checkups. He will not be asked for a miracle by a man smoking three packs a day, and says this layer comesAbout the GuestArthur L. “Bud” Burnett II, MD, MBA, FACS, is a globally recognized Johns Hopkins urologist, researcher, Viagra Pioneer, and educator whose pioneering work in men's health and erectile function has transformed care worldwide.About SuzanneSuzanne Noble is a sex and relationship expert, author, and host of the Sex Advice for Seniors podcast, one of the top-rated shows empowering people 50+ to embrace confident, joyful intimacy.

Send us Fan MailEvery couple has them — the things they're curious about but have never said out loud. Today we're pulling them into the light.Deborah Kat — certified tantric educator, relationship coach, and host of the Better Sex podcast — walks us through the three categories couples are most curious about right now, and the part that matters most: exactly how to bring them up with your partner without it landing weird or killing the mood.In this episode:The three pillars of couple's play — and what each one really gives youThe difference between a kink and a fetishWhy the person in charge and the person letting go are both after the same thing: trustSimple, low-pressure ways to start tonight — using nothing but your own bodyThe exact words to introduce something new (and what to do if you get shut down)

What I Discussed With Pauline Ryeland...- Why the brain turns your libido down on purpose, and what it thinks it's protecting you from- The one thing men do on the sofa every night that women were taught never to do- What Pauline said to a man in his early thirties who was booked in for his third Peyronie's operation- The trauma technique that cleared decades of her own dental trauma after EMDR did nothing- Where painful sex after menopause comes from, and what she reaches for before anyone mentions surgery- The client whose daily panic attacks stopped after a single session- Why I ended up shaking uncontrollably on a hypnotherapist's sofa, and what lifted afterwards- The thing Pauline wants every woman doing from perimenopause onwards, and almost nobody isChapters00:00 – Introduction & Sponsor Spotlight (OhMiBod)00:26 – Episode Preview: Unlocking Midlife Passion & Somatic Sexology with Pauline Ryeland01:30 – From Personal Healing to Intimacy Coaching: Pauline's Journey03:15 – Breaking the Silence: Why Seniors Are Reclaiming Their Sexual Wellbeing05:40 – Somatic Sexology Explained: How Your Body Holds the Key to Pleasure08:12 – Overcoming Midlife Libido Blockers & Emotional Disconnect11:05 – Midlife Intimacy Guide (GITM Playbook Sponsor)12:10 – Tantra & Sensual Touch: Redefining Intimacy Beyond Performance15:45 – The Power of Pelvic Floor Awareness & Sacred Energy19:20 – Navigating Body Image Changes and Self-Confidence After 5022:50 – Simple Micro-Habits to Ignite Connection with Your Partner Today26:15 – Vulnerability in Midlife Dating & Long-Term Relationships29:40 – Closing Words: Why Desire Has No Expiration DateShow NotesMost women over 50 assume their libido went quiet because of their age. Pauline Ryeland says the brain switched it off deliberately, and she can usually tell you why.In this episode I'm joined by Pauline Ryeland, a sexological bodyworker, tantra teacher and trauma specialist based in Queensland, Australia. She trained in NLP, hypnotherapy and the Havening technique, and calls herself a libido expert because that's what almost everyone arrives at her door with.Pauline works hands-on with things most practitioners won't touch. Vaginal pain that women have been told to put up with. Peyronie's disease when urologists have run out of ideas beyond surgery. Sexual trauma that has been sitting in the body for decades.She also told me about her own dental trauma, which EMDR couldn't shift and Havening cleared, and about the client who had ruled out having a baby because of daily panic attacks. I shared something from my own experience with hypnotherapy that I hadn't planned to.Then there's the homework. It costs nothing, needs no partner, and most women have never once tried it. Men have been doing it on sofas for decades without giving it a second thought.If your libido has gone quiet, this episode is proof it doesn't have to stay that way.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- Your libido didn't fail. If sex has hurt, the brain turns desire down to keep you away from the pain, and it doesn't turn back up on its own.- Havening is touch-based and gentle. You stroke your own arms while you talk, and score the memory out of ten as you go.- Pauline scored her childhood dental trauma at 10. Afterwards she could feel her brain hunting for it and coming back empty.- Vaginal pain is treatable. Pauline maps the whole area on a 0 to 10 scale, never pushing past a 4, and pain usually halves by the next session.- Castor oil builds elasticity and collagen in the vaginal wall. She wants women using it weekly from perimenopause, not after sex has become painful.- Peyronie's disease is not only an older man's condition, and surgery is not the only route. One client cancelled his third operation.- Nothing sticks in under 28 days. Miss a day of the practice and you start again. Most clients need five to eight sessions, a fortnight apart.- Sit with a hand down your pants and do nothing with it. No touching, no goal. It rebuilds the pathway between brain, heart and genitals, which for most of us are living in separate post codes.About the GuestPauline Ryeland, Intimacy Whisperer ® works as an Intimacy, Sex & Libido Coach & Educator.

  In this episode of The Better Sex Podcast, I talk with mental health coach, psychologist, and psychoanalyst Dr. Michael Pariser about assertiveness, intimacy, and why asking for what you want can feel so vulnerable. During our conversation, Michael shares how his own experience with "nice guy syndrome" led him into the work of helping people get more honest about what they feel, what they like, and what they want. Along the way, we talk about the difference between being nice and being kind, why pleasing can turn into resentment, and what happens when we expect our partners to know what we want without ever actually saying it. Michael also breaks down what assertiveness is and what it is not. It is not aggression, and it is not passivity. It is the practice of standing in your own desire while also making room for the other person's truth. We explore how that shows up in everyday life, in long-term relationships, and especially in the bedroom, where the stakes can feel higher and the vulnerability can feel even more intense. By the end, we come back to one essential truth: better sex is not about mind reading. It is about honesty, intimacy, communication, and learning how to ask for what you want with more courage and care.

What I Discussed With Dr Anna Elton...- Why the word desire gets confused with arousal, and how mixing them up keeps couples stuck for years.- The uncomfortable truth about the "spontaneous" desire I felt at 25, and why Anna says I actually worked for it.- What 700+ couples taught Anna about why some marriages stay passionate for decades while others go quiet.- Where my erotic energy goes when it stops flowing toward a partner (it doesn't just vanish).- The three personas every partnered person juggles, and the one that quietly starves first.- The couple who ate out "all the time" but hadn't been on a real date in ten years.- Why I hated being the default planner in my relationships, and Anna's fix for the "I don't know, what do you want to do?" dynamic.- The 20 second habit that took one couple from a sexless marriage back to wanting each other.- What actually kept Anna and her high school sweetheart flirting after 25 years and three kids.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction & Sponsor Spotlight (OhMiBod)00:26 – Understanding Midlife Desire with Dr Anna Elton01:27 – Lessons from 25 Years Together: Clinical Research Meets Personal Reality03:00 – Why Young Couples Suffer From Sexless Marriages03:36 – The Brain Chemistry of Intimacy: Desire vs. Physical Arousal04:35 – Spontaneous vs. Responsive Desire Explained05:34 – Rethinking ‘Spontaneous' Spark in Long-Term Relationships07:01 – The Myth of Youthful Passion & Hormonal Shifts Over Time09:07 – Restoring Novelty: The A-to-Z Date Night Framework10:56 – Sponsor Spotlight (GITM Playbook)11:42 – Creating Mystery & Seeing Your Partner Through a New Lens13:05 – The Power of ‘Consensual Uncertainty' in Midlife Dating13:44 – Overcoming the ‘Planner Dynamic' & Resentment in Relationships15:32 – The Three-Step Coaching Technique to Encourage Partner Effort17:00 – Desire Diversion: Where Does Erotic Energy Go When It Leaves the Bedroom?18:50 – Balancing the Three Personas: Individual, Couple, and Family20:17 – Defining a ‘Sexless Marriage' & The Impact of Parental Stress23:05 – What Long-Term Couples Do Differently to Keep the Flame Alive24:04 – Social Penetration Theory: Why Deeper Communication Drives Physical Connection25:58 – Micro-Habits for Reconnection: The 20-Second Rule27:12 – Can High School Sweethearts Last a Lifetime?28:30 – Closing Thoughts & ‘The Formula of Desire' Book Release DetailsShow NotesDesire in long-term relationships is one of the most misunderstood topics I cover on this show, so I went straight to someone with the data.In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Anna Elton, a licensed marriage and family therapist and clinical sexologist who has spent more than 15 years researching desire with over 700 couples. Her new book, The Formula of Desire, grew out of a question she couldn't shake: why were she and her high school sweetheart still flirting after 25 years while couples half their age were arriving at her practice in sexless marriages?Anna dismantled something I'd believed my whole life. That electric, out-of-nowhere desire I remember from my younger years? She says it was never spontaneous. I put the work in without realising it, and that changes everything about how couples in later life can get desire back.We also get into where erotic energy actually goes when it leaves a relationship, because according to Anna's research, it doesn't fade. It moves. And I share something from my own marriage that made this whole conversation personal.If your relationship has gone quiet, this episode is proof it doesn't have to stay that way.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- Desire is psychological, and arousal is physiological. Losing one doesn't mean losing the other.- Spontaneous desire is really well orchestrated desire.- A sexless marriage means sex ten or fewer times a year, and it's happening to couples of every age.- Desire doesn't disappear from a relationship. It redirects toward kids, careers or someone else.- We each juggle three personas: individual, couple and family. The couple persona is the one that gets starved.- New experiences together let you see your partner through fresh eyes, whether that's salsa dancing or axe throwing.- Small consistent habits beat grand gestures. Daily check-ins, 20-second hugs and flirty rain checks keep desire alive.- Just knowing your partner desires you is often enough to feel satisfied in a relationship.About the GuestDr. Anna Elton, LMFT, CST, is a licensed marriage and family therapist, clinical sexologist, speaker, and author of The Formula of Desire. With more than 15 years of experience and research involving over 700 couples, she specialises in helping people understand desire, intimacy, attraction, and long-term relationships.

What if better intimacy had less to do with technique and more to do with understanding your body? In this episode of Swapping Secrets, Jess and Lawrence are joined by Miranda Cheng, founder of We The Femme and a practitioner in pelvic care and holistic sexuality. Together, they explore how the pelvic floor, nervous system, stress and breath can influence desire, arousal and pleasure. Although many people focus on what they should do during sex, Miranda explains why noticing what is already happening in the body can be just as important.

What I Discussed With Dr. Kelly Barron...- How chocolate and sex have always been linked, and the herbs Kelly uses to make that connection real.- Why menopause changes my sex life without ending it, and what "designing a new sexual life" actually means.- The physical and emotional signs that show up when I feel disconnected from my own body at this stage of life.- Why so many women assume there must be a pill for low libido, when the real fix starts with removing pressure and giving myself grace.- The generational silence around sex after 50, and why celebrities like Madonna never talk about what's really going on.- What responsive desire is, and why it takes longer to get in the mood now than it did in my 40s.- Why scheduling sex and building rituals makes intimacy better, not less exciting.- The lingerie storytelling moment that taught me how anticipation can transform a night.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction & Sponsor Spotlight (https://www.ohmibod.com/)00:23 – Why women love chocolate: Science, Pleasure & Midlife Wellness01:42 – The Story Behind Dr. Kellfire's Functional Chocolates for PMS, stress & libido06:10 – Sensory Experiences: Connecting Taste, Touch, and Intimacy08:00 – The Midnight Carnival: Making Sexual Wellness Fun & Playful09:20 – From Chiropractor to Sexologist: Dr. Kelly's Holistic Approach to Menopause12:45 – Overcoming Body Image Struggles & Reclaiming Confidence After 5014:31 – Midlife Intimacy Guide (GITM Playbook Sponsor)15:02 – Taking Pressure Off the Bedroom: Body Awareness & Sensate Touch16:16 – Where Are the Older Sexual Role Models?

Kelly and I talk about how her work with pregnant and perimenopausal women eventually led her into sexology, and why so many of her clients could get through hot flashes and brain fog, but not the disappearance of their sex drive.What I love about this conversation is how honest it gets. We talk about why menopause isn't the end of my sex life, just the end of the sex life I used to have. We talk about why the media and celebrities like Madonna stay completely silent about what's actually happening in their intimate lives after 50. And we land on one of Kelly's most freeing insights: that at this stage, most of us have shifted from spontaneous desire to responsive desire, and that's not a loss; it's just a different starting point.Whether I'm partnered, dating or figuring things out on my own, this episode is full of practical ideas I can actually use. Including one of my own tricks: making a partner tell me a story before I send a single photo.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- Chocolate formulated with the right herbs can genuinely support mood, desire and connection.- Menopause changes my sex life, but it doesn't end it. It's a chance to redesign it on my own terms.- Body disconnection at this stage often shows up as confidence dips, not just physical symptoms.- There's no single pill for low libido. Removing pressure and building body awareness comes first.- Celebrities and the media rarely tell the truth about sex after 50, which leaves most of us with no real role models.- Desire shifts from spontaneous to responsive with age, and that requires more ritual, not less spontaneity.- Scheduling sex and building anticipation can make intimacy more exciting, not more routine.- Storytelling, texting and drawing things out can reignite desire more than a straightforward photo or invitation ever could.About the GuestDr Kelly Barron is a chiropractor, certified menopause specialist, strength and conditioning specialist, and certified sexologist based in Charleston, South Carolina.

Karen Bigman's path to becoming a menopause sex educator is one of the most unexpectedly compelling origin stories we've heard on this podcast. She started in technology. She raised children. She worked in restaurants. And then, in her early 50s, newly separated after a 25-year marriage and struggling to orgasm with a new partner, she found her way to a sexual medicine practice run by Dr. Bat Sheva Marcus, where a nurse practitioner handed her a little blue bullet vibrator, suggested she try it in the next room, and Karen came back five minutes later saying "you just changed my life". That moment is the seed of everything Karen has built since. Her platform, Taboo to Truth, is dedicated to dismantling the two most pervasive myths she encounters in her work: that sex is something people stop having at a certain age, and that it's a topic too taboo to discuss openly. Her course, Men Meet Menopause, is built on the radical premise that male partners, often the most confused and the most shut out from the conversation, deserve their own education, their own language, and their own practical tools for showing up during one of the most significant transitions their partner will experience. In this episode, Karen joins Jenni and Daniel for a conversation that covers a remarkable amount of ground with warmth, humor, and genuine clinical depth. They dig into why menopause remains under-discussed even in 2026, the lingering shadow of the Women's Health Initiative, the male reluctance to name what they're observing, the shame women carry about bodies that are changing in ways they didn't expect. Daniel introduces the compassion sandwich, leading with care rather than observation, as the reframe that changes how every difficult conversation lands. Karen talks about the five pillars underlying sexual disconnection in midlife couples, and what it looks like when one of them wobbles. Jenni brings in the Cheesecake of Pleasure- her clinical framework for expanding a couple's repertoire beyond intercourse as the only available flavor, and the conversation around grief, creativity, and what it means to look forward to something bigger than what you're losing becomes one of the richest exchanges of the season. Karen's concept of sex snacks sits beautifully alongside it. Both frameworks point to the same clinical truth: when intercourse is temporarily or permanently off the table, the answer is not resignation. It's creativity. It's building a palette of pleasure that belongs to this season rather than mourning the one that's passed. Karen closes with the line that may be the most important thing in the episode: don't give up. Don't accept the myth that this is done. Don't believe that sex is only for young people or for other people or for the version of your relationship that existed before all of this. The research shows that women over 60 can have the best sex of their lives if they want. The invitation: for women navigating menopause and for the partners who love them, is to join the journey together and find out what's on the other side.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What I Discussed With Dr. Jenn Kennedy...- The two problems that bring most couples over 50 into sex therapy, and why embarrassment keeps them away for so long.- Why an unreliable erection doesn't mean the end of pleasure, and what "pivoting" actually looks like in bed.- The surprising sensitivity of a soft penis, and why porn has left us all badly under-educated.- Why sex that "feels like sandpaper" is so common after menopause, and the fixes that work within weeks.- The generational reason women over 50 feel funny about keeping lube by the bed.- Why the low-desire partner usually doesn't dislike sex. She dislikes the sex she's having.- How pressure turns desire into obligation, and what brings real desire back instead.- The two words that reignite relationships after decades together.Show NotesIs it okay to say things aren't working in the bedroom? That's the question, according to my guest, that couples are silently asking as they walk into her office. Erections that have become unreliable. Sex that hurts. Desire that seems to have packed up and left. Most people wait years before saying any of it out loud.In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Jenn Kennedy, clinical sexologist, licensed marriage and family therapist and founder of The Pleasure Project in Santa Barbara. Jenn works with couples and individuals in their 50s, 60s and beyond, and she's refreshingly frank about what she sees: bodies that change with age, partners drowning in shame about it, and simple fixes that nobody has bothered to tell them exist.What I love about this conversation is how practical it gets. We talk about what to do in the actual moment an erection doesn't arrive. We talk about vaginal estrogen, the treatment that clears up painful sex in weeks, and why so many women have never heard of it. And we land on Jenn's most freeing insight: the partner who has "gone off sex" usually hasn't gone off sex at all. She's gone off sex where her pleasure comes last.Whether you're partnered, dating or somewhere in between, this episode is full of things you can actually use. Including, for the men, the simplest question in the entire universe. Ask it daily. Then listen to the answer.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- Dysfunction and dissatisfaction are the two main reasons couples over 50 seek sex therapy.- Pivoting to what feels good keeps shame out of the room, and often brings things back.- Sensitivity doesn't disappear with an erection.- Painful sex after menopause is common, treatable and nothing to be ashamed of.- Lube is not a failure.- Vaginal estrogen can transform painful sex in weeks, yet many women are never told about it.- Pressuring a low-desire partner creates obligation, not desire.- The low-desire partner often enjoys sex.- Desire lives in play, curiosity and banter, not in routine.About the GuestDr. Jenn Kennedy is a clinical sexologist and LMFT specialising in sex and couples. In 2023, Dr. Jenn launched The Pleasure Project, which is dedicated to helping us all have a better sex life.  She hosts a podcast called Pleasure Project: Sex & Relationships and offers small group intensives for women and couples. She recently launched a self-guided intimacy course for women and owns a 9-person group therapy practice called Riviera Therapy. Dr Jenn has been quoted in Redbook, Reader's Digest, Forbes Health, DailyOm, Shondaland, Parade, Allure, Yahoo!, and others. She is often tapped to discuss intimacy and sexuality for therapists and physicians.About SuzanneSuzanne Noble is a sex and relationship expert, author, and host of the Sex Advice for Seniors podcast—one of the top-rated shows empowering people 50+ to embrace confident, joyful intimacy.

What I Discussed With Aine Rock…- Why having the "perfect" life on paper doesn't always mean you're living the life you truly want.- The surprising difference between being happy, being comfortable and feeling genuinely alive.- Why losing intimacy often starts long before couples stop having sex.- How reconnecting with pleasure can become the first step towards rebuilding your entire life.- Why women often don't know what they want in bed—and how to begin discovering it.- What happened when Áine and her husband experimented with opening their marriage before deciding to separate.- Why small daily pleasure practices can create profound shifts in confidence, creativity and relationships.- How learning to say both "yes" and "no" transforms intimacy at every stage of life.And much more...Episode Chapters00:00 Introduction01:20 What Does It Mean to "Blow Your Life Up"?04:00 Happy on the Outside, Lonely on the Inside07:00 Opening a Marriage—or Ending It?11:00 Rediscovering Yourself Through Dating16:00 Why Women Struggle to Express Desire20:00 What Is Erotic Alchemy?24:00 Reclaiming Pleasure Without Leaving Your Life28:00 Self-Pleasure, Rituals and Knowing Your Body33:00 Final Thoughts on Living More FullyShow NotesHave you ever caught yourself thinking, "Is this really all there is?" Not because your life is falling apart, but because everything looks fine on the surface—and yet something inside you feels quietly disconnected.It's a question many people never admit out loud, particularly women who have spent decades caring for partners, children and everyone else before themselves. When you've built the life you thought you were supposed to want, it can be deeply unsettling to realise you're still longing for something more.In this episode, I'm joined by author and coach Áine Rock, whose new book Blow Your Life Up explores what happens when we stop living by other people's expectations and begin listening to our own desires. After leaving a long marriage, Áine embarked on a journey of rediscovering pleasure, intimacy and identity—not simply through dating, but by learning to understand herself in an entirely new way.What I love about this conversation is that it isn't really about leaving a marriage. It's about asking better questions. What brings you joy? What makes you feel alive? What have you been putting off because you've convinced yourself it's too late—or because you've spent so long putting everyone else first?Whether you're happily partnered, recently divorced or simply wondering what your next chapter might look like, this episode is a gentle reminder that pleasure isn't selfish. It can be the beginning of coming home to yourself.Listen, learn and enjoy.Key Takeaways- Feeling unfulfilled isn't the same as being unhappy.- Long-term relationships can lose emotional and sexual intimacy without obvious conflict.- Reconnecting with your own desires often starts before reconnecting with a partner.- Pleasure is about much more than sex—it includes creativity, rest and self-expression.- Opening a relationship isn't always the answer if deeper intimacy is missing.- Learning what you want requires curiosity and practice.- Clear communication about pleasure creates better intimacy.- Self-pleasure can help women better understand their own bodies.- Small rituals can reconnect you with your sense of aliveness.- It's never too late to redesign your life around what truly matters.About the GuestÁine Rock is an author, coach and facilitator who describes herself as the Modern Priestess of Pleasure. Through her writing, workshops and coaching, she helps women reconnect with desire, pleasure and authentic self-expression after years of living according to expectations rather than personal truth. Following the end of her 15-year marriage, Áine developed a body-centred approach to helping women rediscover intimacy, confidence and what she calls their "erotic aliveness". Her latest book, Blow Your Life Up: The Wild Art of Wanting More, explores how listening to desire can become a catalyst for profound personal transformation.About SuzanneSuzanne Noble is a sex and relationship expert, author, and host of the Sex Advice for Seniors podcast—one of the top-rated shows empowering people 50+ to embrace confident, joyful intimacy.

In this episode, I'm covering the fifth pillar of Sexual Intelligence: self-acceptance. This is the pillar that ties everything else together, because no matter how embodied, healthy, collaborative, or self-aware you are, none of it lands if you can't accept yourself as you are right now. I'm talking about the "pleasure thieves" that steal our self-acceptance, like comparison, judgment, and perfectionism, and why so much of our sexual shame was programmed into us before we even knew what was happening. I walk through a mirror exercise you can try this week, share why orgasm isn't the measure of good sex (pleasure is), and answer more listener questions. If you've ever felt like you're not enough, not sexy enough, or not doing sex "right," this episode is your reminder that you already are worthy of pleasure, exactly as you are today.

What I Discussed With Malia Lazu…- Why so many women spend years putting everyone else's needs before their own—including in the bedroom.- What the "pleasure gap" reveals about women's sexual satisfaction and why the issue goes far beyond orgasm.- How shame, social conditioning and unrealistic expectations stop women from asking for what they truly want.- Why learning what gives you pleasure is the first step towards better intimacy with a partner.- How creating emotionally safe spaces allows women to explore sexuality without judgement.- Why being single, child-free or choosing unconventional relationships can be deeply fulfilling later in life.- How letting go of outdated ideas about ageing can open the door to greater confidence, curiosity and sexual freedom.- Why stopping the habit of "faking it" could transform not only your sex life, but your relationship with yourself.And much more... Episode Chapters00:00 Introduction01:10 Why Malia Created Sunflower Spa04:30 The Pleasure Gap and Why Women Fake Orgasms08:00 Shame, Safety and Talking Honestly About Sex12:30 Why Women Need Spaces to Learn from Each Other15:30 Challenging Myths About Sexuality After 5018:00 Being Child-Free, Single and Sexually Confident22:00 Decentring Men and Redefining Relationships27:00 Why Self-Pleasure Builds Better Relationships32:00 Final Reflections: Grace, Purpose, Power and Pleasure Show NotesWho told us that getting older meant becoming quieter, less visible or less interested in pleasure?For many women, the second half of life brings an unexpected opportunity—not simply to rethink relationships, but to rethink the stories we've been telling ourselves for decades. Stories about worthiness, desire, ageing and what we're supposedly allowed to want.In this episode, I'm joined by entrepreneur and community organiser Malia Lazu, founder of Sunflower Spa, a women-centred space dedicated to healing sensuality, confidence and belonging. Rather than seeing pleasure as something frivolous or self-indulgent, Malia argues that it's deeply connected to how we value ourselves and the choices we make throughout our lives.Together we explore why so many women continue to fake satisfaction, remain silent about their needs or feel guilty for putting themselves first. We also discuss what happens when women begin to challenge those assumptions—whether that means exploring self-pleasure, embracing life without children, questioning traditional relationship expectations or simply becoming more honest about what feels good.What stayed with me most is the reminder that pleasure isn't really the destination. It's often the by-product of feeling safe, respected and fully present in your own body. And perhaps that's something we become better at as we age—not despite getting older, but because of it.Because the greatest freedom may not be finding someone else to choose us. It may be finally choosing ourselves.Listen, learn and enjoy. Key Takeaways- Pleasure begins with self-awareness, not with a partner.- Many women fake satisfaction because they struggle to communicate their needs.- Emotional safety is essential for fulfilling intimacy.- Social conditioning continues to shape women's sexuality throughout life.- Self-pleasure helps people understand what they genuinely enjoy.- Relationships shouldn't leave you emotionally exhausted.- Growing older creates opportunities to redefine intimacy and partnership.- Being single or child-free can be deeply fulfilling.- Honest communication benefits both partners.- Self-worth and sexual confidence are closely connected. About the GuestMalia Lazu is an entrepreneur, community organiser and the founder of Sunflower Spa, a women-centred community focused on healing, sensuality and belonging. After years leading businesses and working with major organisations, Malia shifted her focus towards creating spaces where women can explore pleasure, identity and self-worth without shame or judgement. Through workshops, community events and educational resources, she encourages women to reconnect with themselves, embrace authentic relationships and redefine what fulfilment looks like at every stage of life. About SuzanneSuzanne Noble is a sex and relationship expert, author, and host of the Sex Advice for Seniors podcast—one of the top-rated shows empowering people 50+ to embrace confident, joyful intimacy.

What if intimacy in later life isn't really about sex at all?In this episode of Sex Advice for Seniors, I speak with George Goulburn, a straight male escort in his 50s, who works with women in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and even 80s.What he shares challenges almost every assumption about escorting, desire, and connection in later life.Far from quick, transactional encounters, George's clients are seeking something deeper: emotional connection, safety, touch, and the chance to feel seen and desired again, often after years or even decades without intimacy.We explore what women really want as they age, how confidence and sexual identity evolve, and why honest conversations about desire are still so rare.This episode is honest, surprising, and deeply human, and it might just change how you think about intimacy in later life.Getting started with sex toys?GITM PLAYBOOK has a fabulous range of toys, plus a handy guide to help you pick the ones that suit you best.Use my code: SUZANNE20 for 20% off.ABOUT SUZANNE:Suzanne Noble is a sex and relationship expert, author, and host of the Sex Advice for Seniors podcast—one of the top-rated shows empowering people 50+ to embrace confident, joyful intimacy.

What if one of the keys to a more connected relationship isn't communicating better—but paying closer attention?In this episode, Janna and her husband pull back the curtain on a practice they've been intentionally developing in their marriage: attunement. Rather than waiting for your partner to tell you exactly what they need, attunement is the skill of noticing, anticipating, and staying emotionally connected to their inner world.Together, they explore why women are often socialized to be more attuned than men, how this dynamic can impact relationships, and the practical ways they're learning to think about and care for each other throughout the day. From feeling more seen and understood to creating deeper emotional and sexual connection, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on what it means to truly know and support your partner.Listen to Part 1 of this series here: https://jannadentonhowes.com/185-mutual-vulnerability-for-a-better-sex-life/Looking for where to start?

Dr. Kate Balestrieri interviews University of Washington professor Dr. Nicole McNichols who has taught “The Diversity of Human Sexuality” for about 15 years. They discuss McNichols' book, “You Could Be Having Better Sex,” and answer a listener who wants to improve an already good sex life. Dr. McNichols introduces “micro-novelty” and explains how nonsexual forms of intimacy—intellectual, spiritual, aesthetic, and future-oriented—can strengthen sexual connection. She outlines her hierarchy of sexual needs (physical/psychological; social/emotional; creative/self-expressive) and reframes fantasies as pathways to desired feelings. They address mismatched effort, women's sexual emotional labor (including the “fifth shift”), the harms of faking orgasms, and using curiosity, communication, and therapy to navigate blocks, emphasizing that pleasure is a birthright. 00:00 Meet Dr Nicole McNichols 01:20 UW Sex Class 02:10 Sex Ed Gaps 03:49 New Book Why 05:05 Listener Wants More (Question) 05:48 Micro Novelty Tips 07:05 Beyond Bedroom Intimacy 08:06 Intellectual Intimacy 10:21 Spiritual Aesthetic Intimacy 13:37 Permission For More 15:49 Sex Needs Pyramid 21:17 Fantasies As Metaphors 21:38 Sexual Growth Skills 22:42 The Fifth Shift Explained 25:00 Why Desire Drops 26:13 Stop Faking Pleasure 27:29 Talking Without Blame 29:38 When Truth Feels Betraying 33:30 Curiosity Questions That Work 38:42 Where To Find Dr. McNichols Dr. Nicole McNicholsBook: You Could Having Better Sex https://www.amazon.com/You-Could-Having-Better-Sex/dp/1668053772/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1PVG61UHELD4J&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.TGA7IggxO47gFh5N7FNfeBdXNGVVmI5-9DvqXOTAcaNsnnyIvLnAi7cUiILcSlagzzthTiIXbfp0sf7GuFRPS8CibcFU1gSObU0J26bQz5hxWLmIgIIGDDAifMs_B3yFxLFBl3-24vDuMyh_QUX5qg._m6W5rD2D4ok2dM0UpMgNTOy-DdC2wwNRdUC8KTgrYI&dib_tag=se&keywords=you+could+be+having+better+sex&qid=1771878717&sprefix=you+could,aps,195&sr=8-1 Website: www.nicolethesexprofessor.comInstagram (@Nicole_TheSexProfessor)TikTok: (@Nicole_TheSexProfessor) Learn more about your ad choices.

After kids, a lot of couples assume intimacy is supposed to disappear. You're exhausted, touched-out, overwhelmed by logistics, carrying invisible mental load — and somewhere along the way, sex can start to feel complicated, distant, or impossible to even talk about. But what if the story is more nuanced than that? In this episode, Dr. Becky talks with board-certified OB/GYN, sexual wellness expert, and Chief Medical Officer at Hers, Dr. Jessica Shepherd, about new survey data exploring what actually happens to intimacy in long-term relationships and parenthood. They discuss: why some married couples report better sex after kids how vulnerability changes intimacy the connection between mental load and desire hormones, perimenopause, and libido why “whose fault is this?” is often the wrong question what it means to approach intimacy from a same-team perspective This conversation is honest, practical, funny at times — and ultimately hopeful. Because intimacy is about feeling seen, understood, connected, and able to locate yourself inside your relationship again. Dr. Becky wrote up a few tips for talking to your partner about intimacy after kids. You can read those here.

What if the secret to better sex isn't a new position or a fancy toy — it's simply showing up as yourself? In this episode, Kelly sits down with Nicole McNichols, a sexuality researcher and educator whose work bridges the gap between what science knows about female desire and what most of us were never taught. Together they unpack why women lose desire in long-term relationships (hint: it's not broken — it's biology meeting culture), what "heated rivalry" actually means for female attraction, and why spontaneous desire is more myth than reality for most women. This is the kind of honest, research-backed conversation your sex ed class should have been. The "heated rivalry" phenomenon — how competition and social comparison can actually activate female desire, and what that tells us about our evolutionary wiring Spontaneous vs. responsive desire — why waiting to "feel like it" may be the #1 intimacy killer in long-term relationships The taco metaphor — a reframe on why novelty matters for sustaining desire (you'll never think about tacos the same way again) Female anatomy 101 — the internal clitoris, female erections, and the structures your doctor probably never mentioned Hormones and midlife sexuality — how perimenopause and menopause reshape desire, and why hormone therapy can be genuinely life-changing Pleasure as medicine — the neuroscience of why pleasure regulates your nervous system and supports overall health Flow states and intimacy — how to cultivate the focused presence that makes sex feel connected rather than performative The mental load problem — why unequal household labor is a libido killer backed by actual data What college students are actually doing — Nicole's research on porn's influence on sexual expectations and the urgent case for comprehensive sex ed Communication as foreplay — why the conversations before, during, and after sex matter as much as the sex itself You Could Be Having Better Sex book https://www.instagram.com/nicole_thesexprofessor/ Listen to my Tedx Talk: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Why we need adult sex ed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adult Sex Ed Master Class:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Interested in my sexual health and hormone clinic? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Waitlist is open⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To learn more about Via vaginal moisturizer from Solv Wellness, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠via4her.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ and get 20% off your first order.

Every diet you've ever tried has failed you for one reason: it never told you when to eat. Your body runs on two energy systems. One burns sugar. The other burns fat. Most people never spend a single day in the second one. Around eight to ten hours without food, the switch flips. Ketones flood your brain. Hunger quiets. Mental clarity hits. Healing turns on. This is what fasting expert Dr. Mindy Pelz has been teaching for over 25 years, and what her book Fast Like a Girl made impossible to ignore. For women, timing is everything. Day 1 to 10, fast longer and lift heavier. Day 11 to 15, testosterone surges and libido climbs. Day 16 to 19 is for deeper fasts. After day 20, progesterone needs you to back off and rest. Fast like a man during the back half of your cycle and you'll tank the very hormones keeping you calm and regular. Underneath all of it sits the hormonal hierarchy. Oxytocin at the top. Cortisol below it. Then insulin. Then sex hormones. When you feel safe and connected, the whole stack works. When you don't, nothing else matters. Connection isn't optional for women. It's biology. Dr. Mindy's books: Age Like a Girl How Menopause Rewires Your Brain for Mental Clarity, Increased Confidence, and Renewed Energy Eat Like a Girl: 100+ Delicious Recipes to Balance Hormones, Boost Energy, and Burn Fat Fast Like a Girl: A Woman's Guide to Using the Healing Power of Fasting to Burn Fat, Boost Energy, and Balance Hormones The Menopause Reset: Get Rid of Your Symptoms and Feel Like Your Younger Self Again The Reset Factor Kitchen: 101 Tasty Recipes to Eat Your Way to Wellness,Burn Belly Fat, and Maximize Your Energy The Reset Factor: 45 Days to TransformingYour Health by Repairing Your Gut In this episode you will: Learn the fasting cycle for women, Dr. Mindy's day-by-day framework that syncs your fasting window, workout intensity, and food choices to your menstrual cycle Uncover why your menstrual cycle is a monthly detox rather than a burden, and what an irregular or absent cycle is actually telling you about your body Discover why timing your eating matters more than what you eat, and how the ketogenic energy system unlocks fat burning, mental clarity, and steady energy Understand the hormonal hierarchy, how oxytocin, cortisol, insulin, and sex hormones stack on each other, and why female community and connection function as biological medicine Find out what long-term birth control does to the gut microbiome and the brain-ovary connection, and why so many women struggle with hormonal imbalances after coming off the pill For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1928 For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960 Follow The Daily Motivation for essential highlights from The School of Greatness More SOG episodes we think you'll love: Glucose Goddess Dr. Mary Claire Haver Dr. Mark Hyman TOPICS Dr. Mindy Pelz, intermittent fasting, ketogenic energy system, fasting cycle for women, hormonal hierarchy, menstrual cycle nutrition, cortisol and stress, birth control and microbiome, oxytocin and women's health, Fast Like a Girl Get more from Lewis!

Consider this episode Better Sex 101. We are joined by Dr. Nicole McNichols, hailed America's #1 sex professor, for an in-depth discussion about how to level up your pleasure, starting with yourself and understanding the hierarchy of sexual needs. We talk about libido fluctuating over time and the factors that affect it, what sexual mindfulness is and how to practice it, how to work through body image issues, and the small but simple life hacks for better sex. Then we discuss sex in long-term relationships – why planning intimacy is hot and leads to higher sexual satisfaction, how to keep falling in love with your partner, the different types of intimacy, why "distance makes the heart grow fonder” is a myth, and if couples can get freakier later in life. We then dive into the dynamics of casual sex (why it's not for everyone and how to know if it's for you) and Gen Z (why they're having less sex but may be more intentional about it, porn problems, and more). Before Nicole joins us, we catch up on Rayna's bodysuit malfunction, Ashley's elite concert experience, and we have another gift opening on air. Enjoy!
