In this solo episode of Please Me! with Eve Hall, Eve breaks down the role hormones play in sexual longevity and why hormonal changes aren't simply something we should accept as a normal part of getting older.

She also shares her personal experience with hormone-related symptoms and why becoming an advocate for your own health matters. You'll also hear Eve's perspective on the orgasm gap, understanding your own pleasure, communicating your needs, and why a satisfying sex life doesn't have an expiration date.

This week, I'm talking with board-certified sexologist Diane Mueller about bridging desire differences and building a sex life that feels good for both partners without chasing someone else's idea of normal. We explore how intimacy supports connection, how shame and old beliefs get in the way, and how to start the kind of sex conversations that actually bring you closer. • why “normal” is the wrong target and how to ask “are we happy and healthy” instead • how sexual intimacy supports bonding and lowers everyday irritation • widening the definition of sex beyond intercourse to reduce pressure and increase options • using novelty to break rigid sexual scripts and stay mentally present • the three pillars behind low desire: physical health, self-knowledge, communication skills • common physical factors including hormones and circulation for both women and men • spotting shame-based patterns and tracing a core belief with repeated “why does that matter” • shifting beliefs with a realistic “what else is true” replacement statement • starting sex talks with specific positives to build safety before making changes • resources from Diane including havehotsex.com and her yes, no, maybe checklist You have 2 more days to get a discount on the Intimacy Vault.

What if healing didn't always require years of retelling your story?In this episode of the Wise Divine Women Podcast, Dana Irvine sits down with psychotherapist and sex therapist Brooke Bralove for a powerful conversation about trauma, the nervous system, intimacy, pelvic pain, libido, and a therapeutic approach called Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART).Brooke has spent more than 22 years as a psychotherapist, working with women navigating anxiety, relationships, sexuality, shame, identity, and the transitions that often accompany midlife. Her own experience with ART after a painful breakup led her to train in the modality and eventually incorporate it deeply into her practice.ART uses rapid eye movements and voluntary image replacement to work with distressing memories, images, and the physical sensations connected to them. Brooke explains why understanding a traumatic experience intellectually doesn't always change the body's response—and why addressing the nervous system can be an important part of healing.When the Body RemembersThis conversation takes an especially important turn when Dana and Brooke discuss pelvic pain, painful intimacy, and low libido.When intimacy has repeatedly been associated with pain, the body may begin anticipating danger before anything has even happened. A kiss, touch, or initiation of intimacy may trigger guarding, tension, avoidance, or a fight-or-flight-or-freeze response.Brooke shares how ART works with the images and body sensations connected to those experiences and then uses imagery to help create a different emotional and physical response.Midlife, Desire & Reconnecting With YourselfMidlife can bring far more than hormonal changes. Women may be navigating empty nesting, changing relationships, identity shifts, painful sex, loss of desire, career transitions, and the feeling that they simply don't recognize themselves anymore.Brooke sees many women who love their partners but say the “fire” has disappeared. Rather than treating libido as an isolated symptom, this conversation invites women to consider the relationship between desire, emotional history, physical comfort, relationships, and nervous-system safety.Brooke leaves us with a message every woman deserves to hear:“Pleasure is your birthright.”Pleasure isn't something women need to apologize for wanting. Brooke encourages women to recognize their right to seek, experience, communicate, and ask for pleasure throughout every season of life.that ART can be offered virtually or in person, and thatConnect with Brooke BraloveWebsite: brookbraylove.comInstagram: @brookbrayloveConnect with DanaDana Irvine, FDNPFunctional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner • Breast Health Educator • Host of the Wise Divine Women PodcastIf you're ready to understand the deeper patterns influencing your hormones, metabolism, breast health, digestion, and whole-body wellness, DanaIrvine.com to learn more or book aHealth Clarity Call.Keywords: Accelerated Resolution Therapy, ART therapy, Brooke Bralove, women's mental health, trauma healing, nervous system healing, low libido, pelvic pain, painful sex, menopause, perimenopause, midlife women, sexual health, intimacy, transformational therapy, Wise Divine Women Podcast

Peptides are everywhere right now. They are being talked about for fat loss, muscle, recovery, brain health, skin, longevity, inflammation, mitochondrial function, injury repair, and just about every other problem women run into in midlife. But which peptides actually make sense? Which ones have useful evidence or clinical experience behind them? Which ones are still early? And where do peptides fit when a woman is already dealing with changing hormones, declining muscle, stubborn body composition changes, poor sleep, low energy, and slower recovery? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jeff Gross, a board-certified neurological surgeon with a background in biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology, regenerative medicine, and longevity. We get into how peptides work, why they are not the same thing as HRT, and why the foundation still matters before you start stacking every peptide you hear about online. Then we get practical. We talk about peptides for mitochondrial function and energy, muscle preservation, recovery, skin and hair, visceral fat, brain fog, sleep, libido, and injury repair. We also get into dosing, cycling, stacking, GLP-1s, growth hormone secretagogues, BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu, SS-31, MOTS-c, PT-141, and more. The big takeaway is simple: peptides can be powerful tools, but they work best when they are used for the right problem, in the right person, with the right foundation already in place. In This Episode, We Cover What peptides actually are and how they differ from hormones Why peptide therapy should not replace foundational hormone care Why HRT, protein, sleep, and strength training still come first Peptides for mitochondrial function and low energy Growth hormone secretagogues for muscle and recovery Peptides for visceral fat Peptides for recovery and inflammation Peptides for skin, hair, and collagen Peptide stacking and when it makes sense Why dosing needs to be individualized Peptides for brain fog and cognitive support Peptides for sleep Peptides for libido The role of GLP-1s in body composition and midlife metabolism Who This Episode Is For This episode is for women in perimenopause and menopause who are hearing about peptides everywhere and want a clearer, more practical framework. It is especially for women asking questions like: Should I be using peptides if I am already on HRT Which peptide is actually used for energy, muscle, skin, recovery, sleep, or libido? Do I need to cycle them? Can I stack them? And how do I know whether I actually need a peptide or whether I should be fixing something more foundational first?   Connect with Dr. Jeff Gross: https://ReCELLebrate.com https://facebook.com/recellebrate  https://www.instagram.com/recellebrate https://www.youtube.com/@stemcellwhisperer     Sponsors Get 15% off Magnesium Breakthrough Advanced at bioptimizers.com/hormone coupon HORMONE Order your LMNT electrolytes today and get a FREE 8 pack of samples!

In this episode, I'm talking about testosterone in midlife, menopause, low sex drive, and why so many women on hormone therapy are still missing the one hormone nobody thought to check. I learned this the hard way: after my divorce, I was dating again and having more sex than I had in years, and my pleasure started to disappear, even though I was already taking estrogen and progesterone. It took finding a sexual medicine practice before anyone mentioned testosterone.I use that experience to take apart some of the biggest myths about testosterone. It isn't only a male hormone (when we're younger, women actually make more of it than men). A "normal" result doesn't mean much if your provider doesn't know how to read it. More isn't better. And a men's product at a much smaller dose isn't dangerous when the right clinician prescribes it. I also explain why low T in men builds so slowly that many don't notice it until their 50s and 60s, what men who want children should know before starting treatment, and why testosterone can help a relationship but will never fix one on its own.If you've been told your libido loss is "just menopause" or "just age," this episode gives you the language to go back to your provider and ask better questions. And a friendly reminder: don't take your partner's testosterone.The antidote to a boring sex life isn't trying harder, it's trying something new together — Take the quiz at arya.fyi and use code: TRUTH15 for 15% off their guided intimacy subscription at https://arya.fyi/start?rfsn=8333683.c9f861In This Episode:0:00 – Low T Isn't Just a Men's Problem0:14 – Welcome to Taboo to Truth0:46 – Testosterone: More Than the "Male" Hormone1:24 – How Men and Women Make Testosterone1:56 – How Testosterone Changes as We Age2:34 – Signs of Low Testosterone in Men3:30 – Signs of Low Testosterone in Women3:58 – My Story: Why My Orgasms Stopped4:23 – It's Not Always Testosterone4:56 – Total T, Free T & SHBG Explained6:08 – Why Testing Units and Timing Matter7:09 – Arya.fyi7:35 – There's No Magic Number for Women's Desire8:12 – How Men Are Diagnosed and Treated9:11 – What Testosterone Can Do for Women10:02 – Side Effects for Men10:40 – Side Effects and Dosing for Women11:24 – Creams, Pellets, Injections & Compounding12:22 – Off-Label Testosterone for Women13:41 – Don't Diagnose Yourself: Final Thoughts14:12 – Final thoughts‼️ Join the waitlist for my upcoming coaching program for midlife men HERE.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we sit down with Dawn from The Minimal Mom to talk about the “dignity line,” a simple framework for recognizing if our relationships are characterized by respect, accountability, trust, and safety - and why patterns matter more than labels. We also dig into the complicated reality of marriage advice, boundaries, divorce, and the pressure Christian women can feel to keep trying no matter what. Then Rebecca joins in for a fiery discussion of a pastor's sermon on sex and asking whether Christian conversations about sexual generosity actually account for women's experiences. This week is a wide-ranging conversation about dignity, discernment, healthy relationships, and why sometimes the most important question isn't “How do we save this marriage?” but “How do we help people become safe and whole?” This is one you don't want to miss!OUR SPONSORThanks to Brazos Press for sponsoring this podcast, so we could tell everyone about the amazing book Look Like a Lady!

Is your missing sex drive just part of getting older? I'm joined by Jennifer Gularson, a women's midlife health and hormone expert, to explain why libido fades in perimenopause and menopause, and the solutions available for women. We cover testosterone dosing and the pros and cons of creams, injections, and pellets. We also get into why oral progesterone can change your sleep and stress, and how high cortisol pulls resources away from your sex hormones.  Jennifer explains how vaginal estrogen improves comfort and helps prevent recurring UTIs, and why feeling safe matters so much for desire. We also look at metabolism, microdosed GLP-1s, sleep hygiene, and fast-acting options.    "Libido loss in menopause is common, but that doesn't mean that it's normal." ~ Jennifer Gularson   In This Episode: - Why libido changes during menopause - Low testosterone and what women can do about it - How stress steals from sex hormones - Progesterone for sleep and stress resilience - Estrogen, vaginal dryness, and comfort - Impact of metabolism, body image, and GLP-1s - When to seek help for low libido: find the right practitioner - Misconceptions about libido loss during menopause - UTIs and vaginal health - Quick ways to boost libido   Products & Resources Mentioned: Puori Grass-Fed PW1 Whey Protein: Use code WENDY20 to save up to 32% off your order and get a free shaker worth $25 at https://puori.com/wendy  Tru Energy Skincare Bio Adaptive Hydration Oil: Try the oil and save up to $197 at https://trytruenergy.com/wendy5   Heavy Metals Quiz: Take the quiz at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    About Jennifer Gularson:  Jennifer Gularson, PA-C, IFMCP, is a well-respected expert in women's midlife health, functional and integrative medicine, longevity science, and natural aesthetic enhancement.

Be part of the 100-Man Project here! Most men have never actually talked about their sex life out loud. Not to their woman, not to their friends, not to a doctor/therapist. They've been carrying it alone for years, convinced they're the only one dealing with what they're dealing with. I want to help change that!Between now and December 31, I'm having 100 free, private, 15-minute conversations with men about their sex lives. No sales pitch and no judgment, just an honest conversation about what's really going on with you and a step to take. In this episode you will learn: • Why I'm doing this, and what I expect to hear • What men tell me keeps them up at night around sex • Why 15 minutes is enough for you to shift something  • Why sharing 'explicit' info on a call responsibly with me is very different than "being a perv". • How to apply, and what happens after you doIf you're a woman listening and you know your man would benefit from this, send them this episode! It might be the thing that gets him talking and ready to take the next step.I'm Stephanie Ganowski, a clinical sexologist and sex coach who works with men. 

What if the reason you keep struggling to lose weight has less to do with discipline—and more to do with the way you've been taught to think about fat loss in the first place? Today we welcome nutrition scientist Dr. Joey Muñoz, PhD for a refreshingly honest conversation about what actually works for sustainable fat loss, building muscle, improving metabolic health, and creating a body you can maintain for life. Joey breaks down why "going on a diet" may be one of the biggest mistakes people make, how your environment can overpower willpower, and why changing your identity and daily habits matters more than finding the perfect meal plan. He challenges the obsession with clean eating, protein-everything, restrictive diets, seed oils, and other nutrition trends that often distract people from the fundamentals that matter most. We also dive into GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, the growing trend of GLP-1 microdosing for longevity, peptides, muscle loss during weight loss, protein requirements as we age, chronic stress and inflammation, and why Joey remains skeptical of health claims that sound compelling mechanistically but lack meaningful human evidence.

Seit drei Jahren sprechen wir bei "Hormongesteuert" über Frauen, Wechseljahre und Hormone. Nun richten wir den Blick auf die Männer: Gibt es so etwas wie die männlichen Wechseljahre? Was passiert mit dem Testosteron im Laufe des Lebens? Und brauchen manche Männer tatsächlich eine Hormontherapie?Um Antworten auf diese Fragen zu bekommen, haben Katrin Simonsen und Dr. Katrin Schaudig einen der renommiertesten Experten auf diesem Gebiet eingeladen: Prof. Michael Zitzmann. Der Androloge hat viele Jahre am Universitätsklinikum Münster zum Testosteron geforscht und Männer mit Testosteronmangel behandelt.Im Gespräch erklärt Zitzmann, warum Übergewicht ein echter Testosteron-Killer sein kann, weshalb manche Männer stärker auf ihr eigenes Testosteron reagieren als andere und warum ein niedriger Testosteronspiegel oft mehr mit dem Lebensstil als mit dem Alter zu tun hat.Natürlich räumt Prof. Michael Zitzmann auch mit einigen der größten Mythen rund um das Männerhormon auf. Und keine Sorge: Diese Folge ist nicht nur etwas für Männer. Auch Frauen werden jede Menge Überraschendes erfahren. Freut euch auf spannende Fakten, verblüffende Zusammenhänge und interessantes Wissen, mit dem ihr beim nächsten Small Talk garantiert punkten könnt.Fragen und Feedback gern an hormongesteuert@mdraktuell.deLinks- Hormongesteuert zum Nachlesen- Folge #29 Bauchfett, geh weg! - Podcasttipp: “Ungebremst - Nach dem Urteil“Inhaltsverzeichnis:0:02:30 Kommen Männer auch in die Wechseljahre?0:03:10 Warum sinkt bei vielen Männern das Testosteron im Alter?0:05:10 Krankheiten können Hoden oder Hirnanhangdrüse schädigen0:07:00 Übergewicht ist ein Testo-Killer0:10:50 Teufelskreis Bauchfett und zu wenig Testosteron0:13:50 Stress, zu wenig Schlaf und zu viel Sport0:16:20 Die wichtige Rolle des Androgen-Rezeptors0:21:40 Macht viel Testosteron aggressiv0:24:00 Testosteronmangel und Libidoverlust0:26:45 Für was brauchen Männer Testosteron?0:32:30 Männer haben im Alter mehr Östrogen als Frauen0:33:21 Wo sollte der Testosteronwert liegen?0:35:00 Welche Test und Untersuchungen müssen bei Verdacht erfolgen?0:40:00 Testosterontherapie nicht bei Kinderwunsch0:42:00 Die Idee der Pille für den Mann und was daraus geworden ist0:44:45 Testomangel kann sich auch durch Lebensstiländerung bessern0:47:00 Was verbessert sich dann unter Testosteron-Therapie?0:49:00 Gibt es ein Krebs-Risiko?0:55:10 Auch Frauen profitieren von einer Testosteron-Therapie1:02:00 Zu lange nur auf die Männer geschaut1:04:00 Testosteron bei Frauen fällt nicht mit der Menopause ab1:08:00 Sind wir zu zurückhaltend in Deutschland mit der Testosteron-Therapie?

¿Por qué durante la menopausia podemos empezar a dormir peor, tener más ansiedad, notar niebla mental, cambios en el apetito, acumular más grasa en el abdomen o empezar con sequedad y molestias íntimas? ¿Y cuándo tiene sentido hablar de terapia hormonal sustitutiva?Muchas veces pensamos en la menopausia casi únicamente como el momento en el que desaparece la regla, pero en realidad el descenso de estrógenos y progesterona puede afectar a muchos tejidos y sistemas del cuerpo, y por eso los síntomas pueden ser muchísimo más amplios de lo que solemos relacionar con ella. En este episodio os cuento, entre otras cosas: • Cuáles son los síntomas más frecuentes de la menopausia, desde los sofocos y otros síntomas vasomotores hasta la niebla mental, los problemas de memoria, los cambios en el estado de ánimo, la ansiedad o el aumento del apetito.• Por qué puede cambiar la composición corporal y aumentar la tendencia a acumular grasa especialmente a nivel abdominal.• Qué es el síndrome genitourinario de la menopausia y por qué pueden aparecer sequedad, picor, molestias íntimas, dolor o incluso infecciones urinarias recurrentes.• Qué complementos pueden tener sentido en función del síntoma y en qué casos pueden ayudar como apoyo, sin sustituir otras medidas cuando realmente hacen falta.• Cuándo puede estar indicada la terapia hormonal sustitutiva, cuándo no, qué factores hay que valorar antes de empezar y por qué no todas las mujeres necesitan exactamente lo mismo.• Qué formas de administrar las hormonas existen y por qué no es lo mismo utilizar una vía oral, transdérmica o local dependiendo del objetivo y de cada caso. Lo importante es entender que la menopausia no es una enfermedad, pero eso tampoco significa que haya que normalizar sentirse mal o resignarse a convivir con síntomas que pueden afectar muchísimo a la calidad de vida. Hay muchas herramientas que pueden ayudar, pero primero hay que entender qué está pasando y qué necesita cada mujer.Como siempre digo: saber más para temer menos y elegir mejor.

What if changes in your sex life aren't simply part of getting older—but could be telling you something about your overall health?In this episode of the Crackin' Backs Podcast, intimacy and sexual wellness expert Susan Bratton joins us for a candid, educational conversation about the surprising connections between sexual health, blood flow, hormones, brain health, relationships, healthy aging and longevity.Susan makes a provocative case: we pay attention to sleep, nutrition, exercise and recovery as markers of health—but should our intimate health deserve a place in that conversation too?We explore why changes in erectile function, arousal, sensation and libido may sometimes deserve more attention than simply writing them off as “getting older.” Susan also explains the role she believes blood flow, nitric oxide, hormones and the nervous system can play in maintaining sexual wellness as we age.But this conversation goes well beyond physiology.Why do couples who once had a strong connection sometimes become roommates? Why can desire change even when two people still love each other? And can intimacy actually become better—not worse—as we get older?Susan shares her perspective on:• Sexual health as a potential window into overall wellness• Blood flow, nitric oxide and sexual function• Libido and changes that occur with aging• Hormones, arousal and the nervous system• Why men and women may experience arousal differently• The relationship between intimacy, connection and longevity• Why couples can gradually lose physical connection• Rebuilding intimacy when you've grown apart• Trust, safety, novelty and long-term relationships• Why communication may matter as much as technique• Maintaining intimacy through midlife and beyond• Sexual wellness as part of a larger healthy-aging strategySusan also challenges one of the biggest assumptions surrounding aging:What if losing intimacy isn't something we simply have to accept?This episode is frank, funny and occasionally provocative—but underneath it is a serious conversation about human connection, relationships, sexual wellness and what it means to remain healthy and engaged throughout life.If you're interested in longevity, men's health, women's health, relationships, hormones, cardiovascular health or maintaining intimacy as you age, this is a conversation worth hearing.▶️ Watch to the end and tell us in the comments: Should sexual health be considered another important marker of overall health?And if conversations like this help you think differently about your health, subscribe to Crackin' Backs.

In this episode, Dr. Mike Hart and OB-GYN Dr. Salome Masghati examine how common hormone interventions can affect women far beyond pregnancy prevention or symptom relief. They discuss the risks and tradeoffs of different birth control options, possible effects on mood, libido, testosterone, and attraction, and why individual responses can vary significantly. The conversation then explores when to consider HRT, the roles of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, thyroid testing beyond TSH, and how shifting hormones may contribute to mast cell symptoms during perimenopause. The episode provides a practical framework for making more informed and personalized decisions about hormone care. Dr. Salome Masghati is a board-certified OB-GYN and functional gynecologist whose work focuses on individualized hormone care for women throughout their reproductive years, perimenopause, and menopause. Her approach combines symptoms, menstrual patterns, comprehensive laboratory testing, metabolic markers, and treatment response to understand each patient's complete health picture rather than relying on a single test or standardized protocol. She works with bioidentical and rhythmic hormone strategies, thyroid care, sexual wellness, and root-cause assessment, emphasizing informed choices, careful monitoring, and helping patients move beyond temporary symptom control toward better long-term health and function.   Dr. Salome Masghati Official Website — Dr. Salome Masghati, Precision Gynecology https://drsalomemasghati.com/ Dr. Salome Masghati on Instagram — Dr. Salome Masghati https://www.instagram.com/drsalomemasghatimd/ This Is Your Brain on Birth Control — Dr. Sarah E.

Onde vai parar o desejo quando a gente vive controlando fome, sono, cortisol, açúcar, passos, peso, envelhecimento e quase todo impulso?No último episódio do CIAO BELA, a gente parte das notícias que associam o uso das canetas emagrecedoras à queda de libido — lembrando que ainda não há evidências científicas conclusivas sobre isso — para falar da sensação de apatia generalizada que tem tudo a ver com cultura, comportamento e vida contemporânea.Pesquisa: Larissa Nara, Felipe Stoffa e Hannah DouradoIdentidade visual: Nino Alexandre Arte e edição: Bianca Lima Trilha: Chico Reginato

What happens to your sex life when a relationship becomes safe, comfortable, and serious? In this episode of Billion Dollar Babie, the girls get brutally honest about intimacy in long-term relationships, losing your libido, moving in together, scheduling sex, people-pleasing, and why toxic relationships can sometimes feel more sexually exciting than healthy ones. They also break down boundaries, relationship communication, dating in your 30s, financial expectations between men and women, masculine and feminine energy, and the pressure to find “the one.” Plus, the conversation gets real about the difference between genuine love, attachment, insecurity, and what they call “fake love.” This is an unfiltered conversation about sex, dating, modern relationships, emotional intelligence, and what it actually takes to build a healthy partnership.

Send us Fan MailWhat if some of the messages we've absorbed about “what it means to be a woman” have less to do with the Bible and more to do with centuries of art, culture, and storytelling? Today we have a fascinating conversation with art historian Elissa Yukiko Weichbrodt about five powerful visual tropes—the Venus, Maiden, Vessel, Mother, and Monster—and the surprising, life-giving counter-stories that have been there all along. Together, we explore what happens when we stop seeing women as objects, prizes, symbols, perfect mothers, or threats, and start seeing them as whole people invited to witness, move, create, cultivate, and partner in God's kingdom.CHECK OUT OUR OCTOBER SIMULCAST EVENTWe're doing our sex talk and a one-day marriage conference!

What happens after prostate cancer surgery, and what can you do when recovery doesn't look the way you expected? In this episode of Intellectual Medicine, Dr. Stephen Petteruti discusses life after prostatectomy, with a focus on sexual function, urinary symptoms, energy, hormonal health, and the possibility of a rising PSA.He explores options that may be discussed for erectile dysfunction and libido, including oral medications, TriMix and PT-141, before examining the more complex question of testosterone therapy after prostate cancer. He also explains biochemical recurrence and why he believes patients should understand what a rising PSA means before automatically pursuing additional treatment.The episode then turns to androgen deprivation therapy, including Dr. Petteruti's perspective on treatment timing, quality of life, treatment resistance, and cardiovascular health. His central message is that men should remain actively involved in their care after prostatectomy, ask questions about their options, and not assume that changes in sexual function, vitality, or quality of life simply have to be accepted.Timestamps: (00:34) What happens after prostatectomy?

I sit down with Dr. Trish Leigh, a cognitive neuroscientist and neurofeedback clinician, to unpack what pornography and screen compulsions can do to the brain, from dopamine dependency and hypersexuality to sexual dysfunction and impaired self-regulation. We explore why so many men struggle to break the habit, how pornography can become a tool for managing stress and boredom, and why simply trying to quit often isn't enough.Dr. Leigh explains how the brain can be rewired through repetition, healthier sources of dopamine, intentional routines, and what she calls the “instant rewire.” We also talk about shame, relationships, parenting, ADHD symptoms, and how rebuilding a healthier brain can help men create the life and relationships they actually want.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:01 - What Happens in the Brain Before You Open Porn02:49 - Dopamine and the Screen Compulsion Loop04:32 - Dopamine, Testosterone, and the Brain06:11 - Porn-Induced Erectile Dysfunction07:09 - How Porn Changes Sexual Arousal09:04 - Novelty, Intensity, and Hypersexuality12:25 - Why Men Use Porn for Stress and Boredom15:16 - Rewiring the Brain Through Dopamine Stacking17:21 - High Libido vs. Hypersexuality20:24 - How Porn Changes the Way You See Women23:58 - What a “Hijacked” Brain Looks Like27:38 - The Prefrontal Cortex vs. the “Banana-Hungry Gorilla”30:00 - Replacing Porn With Real-World Dopamine32:24 - Your Brain Is Not Broken - It's Been Conditioned35:20 - Neuroplasticity and the Rigid Brain40:51 - Porn, ADHD Symptoms, and Brain Function43:12 - Nature, Nurture, and How We Train the Brain45:37 - Teaching Kids Emotional Regulation48:17 - Is It Your Relationship or Your Brain?52:39 - Breaking the Cycle of Shame54:42 - A Step-by-Step Plan to Rewire Your Brain57:00 - The Three-Second “Instant Rewire”59:01 - Building Routines That Replace Porn01:00:52 - Setting the GPS for the Life You Want01:03:10 - Where to Find Dr. Trish Leigh***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

Send us Fan MailWhat if the Bible has been giving us maternal pictures of God all along—and we've simply been overlooking them? Today we talk with Elizabeth Berget, author of “Love Like a Mother,” about God's compassion, childbirth, motherhood, grief, protection, exhaustion, and the surprising ways women's embodied experiences can illuminate the character of God. Together, we explore how seeing God as both Father and Mother can offer women a deeper sense of belonging, challenge unhealthy ideas about motherhood and spiritual performance, and invite the church into a fuller, more expansive theology.CHECK OUT OUR OCTOBER SIMULCAST EVENTWe're doing our sex talk and a one-day marriage conference!

"I don't feel like myself anymore." Dr. Shawn Tassone hears some version of that sentence from women all the time. But what does it actually mean? Is it perimenopause? Low estrogen or progesterone? Testosterone? Thyroid dysfunction? Chronic stress? Burnout? Postpartum changes? A struggling relationship? Loss of identity? Or is it possible that more than one of those things can be true at the same time? In this episode of Confessions of a Male Gynecologist, Dr. Tassone connects three seemingly unrelated conversations — Dolly Parton, the Lindsay Clancy case, and the recent pastor's wife documentary — to explore one much larger issue: What happens when a woman spends years carrying things no one else can see? Women's health is often divided into separate boxes. Hormones go here. Mental health goes there. Libido becomes another problem. Sleep becomes another. Your thyroid gets another doctor. Your relationship is considered completely separate. But the woman experiencing all of those things is still one person. Dr. Tassone breaks down why your hormones do not exist in a vacuum and how chronic stress, relationships, caregiving, motherhood, identity, sleep and hormonal changes can interact. He also explores why perimenopause can become the point where all of these worlds collide. Maybe menopause changed how you feel, but did it create every problem — or did changing hormones, worsening sleep and decreased stress tolerance make an already unsustainable situation harder to tolerate? In This Episode You Will Learn: Why "I don't feel like myself" deserves to be taken seriously How estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and thyroid health can affect how women feel Chronic stress, cortisol and what social media gets wrong about "hormone imbalance" Why relationship stress and emotional safety can affect physical and sexual health The invisible mental and logistical load many women carry Why low libido is not always simply a testosterone problem Motherhood, identity loss and postpartum recovery Postpartum depression, anxiety and postpartum psychiatric illness Why postpartum healthcare needs to extend beyond a single six-week visit How caregiving can gradually push a woman's own needs aside Why perimenopause can magnify problems that were already there The overlap between hormones, sleep, metabolic health, stress, mental health and relationships Why normal-looking labs do not automatically mean a woman feels well What holistic women's healthcare should actually mean The questions Dr. Tassone believes we should ask when a woman says she no longer feels like herself The answer isn't that everything is hormones, but it also isn't that your hormones have nothing to do with what you're experiencing. Good medicine should be capable of holding more than one truth at the same time. Your estrogen may be low and your relationship may be affecting your nervous system. Your thyroid may need treatment and you may be profoundly burned out. You may be experiencing postpartum hormonal changes and need specialized mental-health care. Your testosterone may be low and increasing testosterone may not repair emotional intimacy. You are not an estrogen level. You are not a testosterone level. You are not a TSH, BMI or age on a chart. There is a human being attached to those ovaries. And sometimes the better question isn't simply: "What symptoms are you having?" It's: "What have you been carrying?" If you've found yourself saying, "I haven't felt like myself in years," this conversation is for you.

One of you reaches for sex to feel close. The other needs to feel close before sex is even on the table. Nobody is wrong, nobody is broken, and most couples never say a word of it out loud.In Episode 5 of the DAM Sex series, sex and intimacy counsellor Debby Poort joins DAM to unpack what happens when two people in the same relationship have completely different starting points for desire — and why so much of the disconnection around sex turns out not to be about sex at all.What we get into:What responsive desire and spontaneous desire actually mean, and why one of them is so consistently misread as "you don't want me anymore"Why mismatched libido in a long-term relationship is far more common, and far less personal, than it feels at 11pmWhy a man wanting sex is so often not about what his partner assumes it's aboutWhat happens in new parent couples when one partner is exhausted and touched out for months and the other turns to pornography — and the line Debby draws between when that's neutral and when it's a problemHow to open that conversation at home without it landing as an accusationWhy couples from different countries, families and faiths are working from completely different sexual scripts, and what to do when those scripts contradict each otherWhat Debby wishes partners understood about arousal, the orgasm gap, and how long things actually takeThe one conversation she has in her practice more than any other — and why couples visibly relax the moment they hear itIf you have ever thought "they're never in the mood," or been on the receiving end of "is that all you ever think about," this is the episode.About Debby Debby Poort is a sex and intimacy counsellor based in the Netherlands, working in English with couples and individuals — including a lot of international and intercultural couples.

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when “protecting women” actually leaves them with fewer choices, less financial security, and nowhere to go when a marriage becomes unsafe? Today we unpack the hidden risks behind certain conservative Christian teachings about gender, money, work, and submission before sitting down with Sally Hope to talk about abuse, faith, anger, healing, and her survivor resource "No Visible Scars." It's a thoughtful - and occasionally fiery - conversation about what genuine protection looks like when the goal is not female dependence, but healthy partnership, autonomy, justice, and healing.CHECK OUT OUR OCTOBER SIMULCAST EVENTWe're doing our sex talk and a one-day marriage conference!

At Breaking Through Wellness, taking more strategic care of yourself also means making more room for joy-filled experiences with the people you love. In fact, it may be the most important factor in thriving through perimenopause with optimal health, hormones, fitness, and holistic happiness!In this episode, Louise Valentine, a leading functional women's health, exercise physiologist, and female-specific fitness expert, shares a personal look at how health, changing hormones, fitness, relationships, and stress all intersect during perimenopause. After noticing how demanding this season of life has become for herself and her clients, she realized that reconnecting with her husband needed to become a top priority, not something left for when life finally slowed down.Louise shares why she and clients in her private practice are making intentional connection part of their wellness goals, including planning regular date nights and finding simple ways to bring back fun, conversation, and intimacy. She also walks through how she approached an adventurous weekend getaway, including hacks for alcohol, nutrient timing, and fun meals out, while still supporting her best training, recovery, and overall health.The conversation goes deeper as Louise opens up about family stress, resilience, changing priorities, and the importance of having a strong community around you when life feels heavy.The takeaway is simple: wellness is bigger than workouts and nutrition. Sometimes feeling your best also means protecting your relationships, making space for joy, and remembering what matters most.RESOURCES + LINKSLearn & level up with my free nutrition guide & award-winning 1:1 Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.comTake advantage of our podcast listener discount & save 20% off Kion's science-backed clean products.

Why does libido feel effortless during the honeymoon phase—and then seem to disappear? After experiencing this pattern in her own relationships, Hannah Johnson, known as The Libido Fairy, set out to understand what allows desire to grow in a long-term relationship. In this episode, she shares practical ways couples can make intimacy more pleasurable, collaborative, and genuinely connecting. You'll learn how to use a 1–10 scale to take the pressure out of initiation, create an intimacy menu, plan sx without making it feel obligatory, and build simple rituals that keep you connected. Hannah also explains some of the most common libido killers—including resentment, exhaustion, nervous-system overload, and intimacy that simply isn't enjoyable—and what to do when your mind wanders during sex. If desire has faded, it doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong with you or your marriage. Desire can be understood, nurtured, and rebuilt.

Send us Fan MailBethany Jantzi and Dr. Merry Lin join us in taking a very close—and occasionally incredulous—look at Laura Doyle's The Empowered Wife, unpacking its promises, “six intimacy skills,” and insistence that women can transform their marriages by changing themselves. They explore where self-care, respect, vulnerability, and intimacy can sound appealing while still becoming dangerous when they encourage women to self-silence, ignore serious problems, or take responsibility for a husband's behavior. Ultimately, this is a conversation about discernment: what does genuine marital intimacy actually require, and how can we tell the difference between healthy accommodation and simply learning to disappear inside a relationship?

Cette semaine sur le podcast, Lysandre et Joanie reçoivent Rose Massie et Elisabelle Hardy, nutritionniste, pour une conversation aussi personnelle qu'importante sur les troubles alimentaires et leurs impacts bien au-delà de l'alimentation : s3xualité, relations amoureuses, amitiés, énergie, estime de soi et qualité de vie.Rose revient avec beaucoup de transparence sur son propre parcours. Ce qui avait commencé comme une volonté de se remettre en forme et de mieux manger s'est progressivement transformé en quelque chose de beaucoup plus envahissant. Plus le temps avançait, plus la nourriture, l'entraînement et le contrôle prenaient de la place, jusqu'à affecter ses sorties, ses relations, sa mémoire et sa capacité à être réellement présente avec les autres.Avec Elisabelle, la nutritionniste qui l'accompagne depuis maintenant deux ans, elle raconte aussi les premières étapes de son rétablissement : apprendre à ajouter certains aliments, retourner graduellement au restaurant, accepter de lâcher un peu de contrôle et surtout retrouver une vie qui ne tourne pas uniquement autour de la nourriture et de l'entraînement. Un processus qui peut prendre des années et qui demande énormément de patience.La discussion aborde également un aspect des troubles alimentaires dont on parle beaucoup moins : leur impact sur la s3xualité et les relations amoureuses. Rose explique comment son désir s3xuel avait complètement disparu et comment la peur de perdre le contrôle a aussi changé sa façon d'envisager les relations. Elisabelle explique de son côté pourquoi la restriction alimentaire peut affecter les hormones, le désir et la place accordée au plaisir dans la vie.On parle aussi de :— Comment une démarche « santé » peut tranquillement devenir obsessionnelle— Les premiers signes d'un trouble alimentaire— Le déni et l'importance de l'entourage— La perte d'énergie, de mémoire et de concentration— L'obsession pour la nourriture et l'entraînement— Pourquoi les commentaires sur le poids peuvent être déclencheurs— La différence entre trouble alimentaire et relation troublée avec la nourriture— Les impacts de la restriction sur les hormones et la libido— S3xualité, douleur et perte de désir— La peur de perdre le contrôle dans une relation amoureuse— L'isolement et les impacts sur les amitiés— Apprendre à retourner au restaurant sans tout contrôler— Pourquoi le rétablissement peut prendre plusieurs années— L'image corporelle et la dysmorphie— Comment parler d'alimentation et de corps avec ses enfants— Les réseaux sociaux et la désinformation nutritionnelle— L'importance d'aller chercher de l'aide— Retrouver graduellement le plaisir de manger et de vivreLe podcast est présenté par OxioUtilise le code promo SEXEORAL pour obtenir 1 mois gratuit sur https://bit.ly/oxio-sexeoralLe podcast est présenté par Éros et CompagnieUtilise le code promo SEXEORAL pour 15 % de rabais sur https://bit.ly/eros-gpopRéserve ta soirée entre amis au SHAKER de ton choix dès maintenant sur https://bit.ly/SexeOral-ShakerAbonne-toi pour ne pas manquer les prochains épisodes!Pour suivre les filles:https://www.instagram.com/rosemassie128?utm_source=qrhttps://www.instagram.com/clinique.nutritive.dtp/https://www.instagram.com/elisabelle_hardy/https://www.instagram.com/rosemassieinstitut?utm_source=qrRessources:https://cliniquenutritive.com/boutique/https://anebquebec.com/baladohttps://anebquebec.com/services/groupe-de-soutiens-fermes/sexualitehttps://equilibre.ca/https://bienavecmoncorps.com/Pour devenir partenaire du balado :mathis@matieremedia.comPour travailler avec l'équipe du balado :rh@matieremedia.com Hébergé par Acast.

Trying to conceive can affect so much more than your fertility. It can change your sex life, create resentment, bring old trauma and insecurities to the surface, and leave couples feeling more like roommates than partners. In this episode, Dr. Leah breaks down some of the most common relationship dynamics she sees during a difficult TTC or infertility journey, including the project manager and avoider, silent grievers, sex on schedule, and the unequal burden dynamic. She also shares practical ways to communicate your needs, involve your partner, protect intimacy, shift unhealthy patterns, and create a stronger foundation for the parenthood you're working toward. Most importantly, if trying to conceive has changed your relationship, you're not alone, and it doesn't mean your relationship is doomed.00:00 Trailer + Intro01:43 How Trying to Conceive Can Affect Your Relationship02:47 When TTC Starts Changing Your Relationship05:07 When Sex Becomes a Chore06:43 The Vicious Cycle of Libido and Disconnection10:06 How Hard Times Bring Old Wounds to the Surface11:43 When Fertility Changes the Relationship Dynamic16:04 The Project Manager and the Avoider18:39 Give Your Partner the Map20:06 The Silent Grievers21:13 Sex on Schedule and Unequal Burden25:35 The Hidden Grief of Trying to Conceive27:30 The Micro-Griefs Women Carry30:32 When Your Partner Doesn't Know How to Show Up33:05 Creating the Support You Actually Need35:30 Reconnecting With Joy and Your Identity37:46 Giving Your Partner a Clear Role41:37 Letting Go of Control43:48 Protecting Polarity and Connection49:28 What Your Partner Can Actually Do51:50 Protecting Your Relationship During TTC55:07 Breaking the Resentment and Disconnection Cycle57:27 Getting Support and Processing the Hard Stuff60:44 Building a Stronger Foundation for Parenthood63:03 You Are Not AloneResources From This Chapter: The Queen's Code book by Alison Armstrong - https://www.amazon.com/Queens-Code-Alison-Armstrong/dp/B01DAYC348/The Queen's Code Podcast Episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Kx1WKOBj6ByS9BWrMm3fH?si=afc6a448f29a40a1 Healthy As A Mother Podcast | YouTubeHealthy As A Mother Podcast | InstagramHealthy As A Mother Podcast | TikTokHealthy As A Mother Podcast | Merch StoreFind more from Dr. Leah:Dr. Leah Gordon | InstagramDr. Leah Gordon | WebsiteWomanhood Wellness | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Morgan:Dr. Morgan MacDermott | InstagramDr. Morgan MacDermott | WebsiteUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 10% at EarthleyUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 15% at RedmondFor 20% off your first order at Needed, use code HEALTHYMOTHERSave $260 at Lumebox, use code HEALTHYASAMOTHERUse code HAAM and save 10% at Fond

If you're exhausted, your gut is expanding, your motivation is gone, and your sex drive has quietly disappeared, someone has probably told you it's male menopause. In this episode of Taboo To Truth, I explain why the term Male Menopause isn't medically accurate, how men's hormonal aging differs from women's, what low testosterone actually feels like versus what just looks like it, and when a symptom deserves a doctor instead of a supplement. I get into the research on testosterone replacement therapy, the difference between libido and erectile function, the tools I recommend for supporting sexual function, and what happens in a relationship when desire changes and nobody talks about it. Your sexuality isn't controlled by one number on a blood test, and getting older doesn't mean the end of desire, pleasure, or satisfying sex.In This Episode:00:00 Intro00:13 Welcome to Taboo to Truth00:35 What We're Covering Today01:41 Does Male Menopause Actually Exist?03:22 Male vs. Female Hormonal Aging04:30 What Low Testosterone Actually Feels Like05:42 Other Causes That Mimic "Male Menopause"06:46 Testosterone, Desire & the 2017 Trials08:24 Libido vs. Erections: Two Different Systems09:51 Tools That Support Sexual Function11:27 How This Affects Your Relationship12:37 When to See a Doctor13:44 How Low T Is Actually Diagnosed15:06 TRT: Benefits & Risks16:49 What Else You Can Do18:17 So...

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when “Christlike manhood” starts sounding suspiciously like Victorian gender roles, male entitlement, and a whole lot of covert nudging? This rage-read of Eric Ludy's “Warrior Poet Manhood” article unpacks the deeper assumptions behind a theology that tells women to manage, encourage, and even manipulate men into becoming better husbands while men remain in charge. We explore gender stereotypes, power and emotional attunement, the “angel in the house,” and why the upside-down kingdom of Jesus offers a radically different picture of maturity, partnership, and servant leadership.CHECK OUT OUR OCTOBER SIMULCAST EVENTWe're doing our sex talk and a one-day marriage conference!

Send us Fan MailBuckle up for the final episode of our 3-part series on purity culture! In this episode we dig into what genuine accountability actually looks like when influential Christian leaders (namely Dannah Gresh) recognize the harm their teachings have caused. Through a thoughtful discussion of repentance, public responsibility, and the lasting impact of purity culture, we continue to ask why admitting specific mistakes remains so difficult—and why doing so matters for healing and preventing future harm. Also, is Dannah's rewrite of “And the Bride Wore White” really any better? Tune in to find out!CHECK OUT OUR OCTOBER SIMULCAST EVENTWe're doing our sex talk and a one-day marriage conference!
