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.

For 20 years, people have asked me the same questions: what's the best position, how do I get better oral sex, is anal sex supposed to hurt. And honestly? I still love answering those. But after two decades of doing this podcast, I've realized something. People rarely come to me with the real problem. Underneath the sex question, there's almost always shame, rejection, resentment, or the big one: "am I normal?" In this episode, I'm doing something I've never done before going back through 20 years of advice and telling you what I'd change. I'm a Doctor of Human Sexuality and I've talked to millions of people about their sex lives, and here's what I know now that I didn't then: "just communicate" isn't enough, "spice it up" doesn't fix resentment, spontaneous desire is mostly a myth for people in long-term relationships, and sleep and stress matter more than any toy in your nightstand. I'm breaking down the five pillars of sexual intelligence, why I think we're all obsessed with the wrong metrics, and what actually predicts great sex (hint: it's not technique). If you've ever wondered whether you're normal, this one's for you. You are. #SexWithEmily #EmilyMorse #SexAdvice #SexualIntelligence #Relationships ABOUT EMILY: Emily Morse is a Doctor of Human Sexuality, author and host of the #1 rated Sex with Emily podcast.

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.

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.

Sex is sometimes a taboo topic. Not today! Intimacy expert Ita O’Brien tells us all about the new normal in the bedroom, and how she’s introduced it to Hollywood.

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. She is the founder of Dr. Kellfire's, a chocolate brand created to support hormone balance, desire and pleasure, with formulas designed for both women and couples.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. 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.

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.

I host an uncensored girl talk with Tanya, Peekaboo, Curly Vixen, Amelia, and R about what we'd whisper to our 20-year-old selves after years of sexual experience and discovering the lifestyle. We talk about learning what good sex actually is, asking for what you want instead of taking what you can get, and communicating both desires and boundaries. We share different backgrounds—early vs. late sexual starts, religious upbringing, marriage and kids young—and how shame, jealousy, and possessiveness affected relationships and friendships. We discuss confidence and body acceptance, phases in desire, kink and power dynamics, porn/internet exposure, and pressure around things like squirting and consent. I also mention my upcoming Hedonism trip, our Girl Talk Spotify playlist, and we end with Amelia plugging that she's single. 00:00 Uncensored Girl Talk Intro 00:12 Breaking the Censorship Ice 00:53 Advice to Our 20s Setup 02:10 R on Learning Desire 04:27 Lifestyle Lessons and Jealousy 06:13 Amelia on Exploring More 08:49 Peekaboo on Sex vs Red Flags 11:04 Tanya Letter to 20-Year-Old Self 14:03 Curly Vixen Confidence and Settling 18:29 Host Body Image and Pleasure 20:39 Discovering Kink Layers 22:14 Owning Your Needs 22:39 Teaching Better Lovers 26:36 Squirting Pressure Consent 28:41 Sex Friendship Possessiveness 30:10 From Religious Upbringing 34:13 Finding Lifestyle Clubs 35:54 First Sex Club Reality 37:25 Aging Wild Sex Lives 38:35 Body Confidence Hedo Trip 40:38 Wrap Up Plugs Teasing *description written with the help of AI* Check out my friends fan pages: ⁠https://linktr.ee/TUFriends Content mentioned in this episode: 1.

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.

He was 22, drunk, and couldn't get an erection. That night followed him for the next decade.In this episode of Sex Advice for Seniors, Tom Jenkins, author of The Drunk Gambler with Erectile Dysfunction, joins me for one of the most honest conversations I've had about ED. We get into addiction, performance anxiety, why Cialis wasn't the answer, and the lifestyle overhaul that actually worked. Tom's story is younger than my usual guests, but the patterns he describes- shame, silence, treating the symptom instead of the cause show up at every age.If you've been too embarrassed to have this conversation, this is a good place to start.

Two things can be true at the same time. I am grateful to be alive long enough to go through menopause. I am also furious about how little we are told about what happens to our genitals as we age.This week on Sex Advice for Seniors, after nearly 200 episodes, I finally said the words “clitoral atrophy” out loud. Mindset and lifestyle coach Tanya Leake joined me to walk through what actually happens. Falling estrogen thins the tissues. Blood flow drops. The clitoris becomes less sensitive, takes longer to wake up, and sometimes goes quiet. In some cases, the hood fuses over the head of the clitoris. There is a name for it. Clitoral adhesion. Most women have never been told this is a thing. This is a public episode.

Many men who grew up in conservative households never received a sex education. Instead, they got silence, or shame, or a marriage arranged before they knew what desire even was. That silence can follow them for decades.This week on Sex Advice for Seniors, I talk to Joe Bains, a London-based biohacker and tantra practitioner, about what seven years at a tantra school taught him about intimacy, orgasms, and why your health is the biggest aphrodisiac there is.Joe came from a background where sex simply didn't exist as a conversation. Now he's multi-orgasmic, and he has a lot to say about how you get there.Here's what we cover:* Why biohacking is just optimisation, and why it matters more to your sex life than you think* What “internal orgasms” actually are and how men learn to have them* Why health is the single most powerful driver of desire at midlife* How “how you do anything is how you do everything” applies directly to your sex life (even sweeping the floor!)* What it takes to escape a background of total sexual silence and start againFollow Joe here:WebsiteYouTubeFacebookLinkedInReady to Go Deeper?Upgrade to unlock more confidence, clarity, and pleasure in your intimate life.As a paid subscriber, you'll get:✨ Full access to my sexy stories

Most couples dealing with erectile dysfunction have no idea what else to do. So they rely on pills, which turns sex into a performance. Nobody's having pleasure. They're just trying to recreate what worked when they were 17.This week on Sex Advice for Seniors, I talk to Amy Color, intimacy and relationship coach with 20 years of experience, about why couples therapy so often makes things worse, what intimacy actually means, and why penetration is a man's least effective move. She built her entire method because she couldn't find anyone who could help her own marriage. Now she turns couples around in six weeks.Here's what we cover:* Why couples therapy can feel like “a slow, expensive divorce.”* The real difference between love, sex, and intimacy* Why is erectile dysfunction quietly destroying men's lives* How to explore whole-body pleasure that actually works at midlife* Why scheduling intimacy isn't unromantic.

There's a side effect of prostate cancer surgery that almost no one warns men about – until it hits them in the bedroom. I've had more than one partner discover something was seriously wrong only after they lost their erections, and I've since learned they're far from alone.This week on Sex Advice for Seniors, I talk to Jon Plate from Nordic Stem Cells about what he calls the “silent aftershock” of radical prostatectomy and why so many men are left to quietly grieve their sex lives while everyone tells them they should just be grateful to be alive. We also get into a new stem‑cell approach that claims to do more than just offer another pill or pump.Here's what we cover:* The hidden sexual fallout of prostate cancer surgery* Why doctors gloss over erection problems – and how that feels for men* Shame, ageism, and why older couples stop asking for help* A stem‑cell treatment that aims to fix the cause, not just the symptoms* What men and partners should be asking before and after surgeryReady to Go Deeper?Upgrade to unlock more confidence, clarity, and pleasure in your intimate life.As a paid subscriber, you'll get:✨ Full access to my sexy stories

Season 6, Episode 734: A Genuine Discussion of Intimacy and Sex. From Marine to Intimacy Guide: Andre Lazarus discusses topics on Pleasure, Vulnerability, Shedding Shame, and Connection with podcast host Ruan Willow. Rarely does a career pivot feel this surprising and this necessary. Andre Lazarus went from U.S. Marine to somatic intimacy guide, and the journey took a full decade of witnessing profound healing breakthroughs before he truly found his calling. Andre shares how his work (grounded in the Somatic method) helps everyone from trauma survivors to couples navigating alternative relationships. He's perhaps best known for appearing on the U.K. television series Virgin Island as a professional surrogate partner, bringing these conversations into public view in a way that actually matters. What does it really mean to feel safe enough for genuine pleasure? How can we be more authentic in our intimacy? Andre argues that safety isn't something a partner provides for you. It's your own responsibility, built through boundaries that are dynamic and require constant, intentional practice. Andre addresses male vulnerability, which is less commonly discussed. Men, he explains, often struggle deeply with reconnecting to vulnerability, and that disconnection blocks pleasure entirely. He also breaks down his three-pillar framework: open community conversation about sex, attunement to a partner, and aftercare. He also talks about how men have tradtionally talked about sex from their own perspective, leaving women, women's bodies, sensations, and women's pleasure out of the conversation, which has collectively skewed our culture's view of sexuality to the male experience and perspective, and erroneously perpetuated that this also applies to women. This is total lie and a very common, and toxically pervasive, misconception. Humans are finally looking at women's pleasure and experiences with sex, but it will take time to permeate the general populus to break the male centered myths. The more we talk about this the better! Topics discussed: Sexuality as Our Birthright and Vulnerability Safety is Your Personal Responsibility Setting Boundaries and Saying No Listening to Your Body's Signals Beyond Penetration: BDSM Exploration and Sensation Slowing Down and Redefining Sexual Pleasure Understanding How Our Desires Develop Breaking Free from Sexual Shame Sexual Performance Issues in Male and Female Bodies Self-Pleasure and Sexual Shame in Childhood Taking Responsibility for Your Own Pleasure Why We Shame Sexual Tools Helping People Find Intimate Connection on Television Finding Your Joy and Sexual Authenticity Exploring Different Experiences With One Toy Connect with Andre: Today, Andre balances private coaching, workshops, and a men's online course on sexual communication with growing media visibility, including the upcoming second season of Virgin Island.   Website: https://www.coming-closer.com/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/coming-closer/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comingcloserwithandre/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@comingcloserwithandre Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/comingcloserwithandre?_rdc=1&_rdr# Media profile: https://www.guestsonair.com/profile/andre-lazarus PodNation Podcast Affiliate link, Get 15% OFF with code podna15 on Ryze Coffee at ⁠https://www.ryzesuperfoods.com/⁠ ⁠Support the show and get exclusive content⁠ Sign up for Ruan's Newsletters ⁠https://subscribepage.io/ruanwillow Get 10% OFF ENTIRE ORDER (min. purchase $69, no usage limits) with code RUANWILLOW10 on pleasure sex toys at https://www.kiiroo.com/ https://offers.feeliate.com/to92wTJh Affiliate link, collect your body's health and sexual health info with a wearable device for men from Firm Tech 15% OFF with code ruan15 ⁠⁠https://myfirmtech.com/ruanwillow⁠⁠ Ruan's book in order: directly from Ruan https://payhip.com/b/pMxn3 Copyright 2026 Pink Infinity Publishing LLC.

His career has followed an unconventional path: from serving in the U.S. Marines to guiding people through the complexities of intimacy and desire. That breadth of experience gives him a distinctive perspective on courage, vulnerability, and human connection. He is best known for his role on the UK television series Virgin Island, where he appeared as a professional surrogate partner helping participants confront intimacy challenges alongside licensed therapists. The program drew national attention, and Andre's presence on screen highlighted how intimacy work is not about performance but about safety, consent, and the courage to connect. Through his practice, Coming Closer, Andre supports individuals and couples across a wide range of needs: men facing midlife performance concerns, survivors of trauma seeking safety, long-term partners wanting to revive passion, and those exploring alternatives such as ethical non-monogamy. Equally, he works with couples committed to monogamy who want to strengthen trust and rediscover each other. His approach, rooted in the Somatica® Method of sex and intimacy coaching, emphasises learning through the body and replacing shame with curiosity. While Andre has also taught workshops introducing kink and alternative practices, he situates them within a broader conversation: how people of all backgrounds can embrace intimacy as part of their wellbeing. His message consistently comes back to honesty, communication, and self-awareness as the foundations for connection.

There's no cut-off point when it comes to understanding what you like in bed as my guest on this week's podcast, Kathy Kay, discovered. Kathy is, for those who know their podcasters, the wildly successful New York based host of the Strictly Anonymous podcast and what a treat it was to have her come on Sex Advice for Seniors.Over 11 years, she has been collecting anonymous sexual confessions. Over 1300 of them and guess what? (She makes my 180+ episodes seem pedestrian, in comparison!). The over 60s are consistently her most surprising guests, with many in their 70s confessing that it was only recently they discovered their sexual preferences.There's a couple in her new book, Secret Sex Lies of Total Strangers, who met after their spouses died and built a sex barn in their backyard. In their 70s. Neither of them saw it coming and they're having a blast.Here's what we cover:* Couples in their 70s having the best sex of their lives* The sex barn story you won't forget in a hurry* Why open relationships are often closer than conventional ones* Men with decades of secrets and what finally changes at 50* Why desire grows as you get older, not the other way roundTo see exclusive photos of Kathy's female guests, gain access to her private Discord channel where conversations get extra naughty, hear anonymous confessions, and receive all episodes early and ad-free, listeners can join the Strictly Anonymous Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/StrictlyAnonymousPodcastKathy's book, Strictly Anonymous Confessions: Secret Sex Lives of Total Strangers—a collection of short, super sexy, true stories—is now available for pre-order.

Can a marriage survive infidelity?This week I spoke with Renelle Nelson, a licensed marriage and family therapist who's spent 11 years specialising in affair recovery. She helps couples rebuild after betrayal, when everything's shattered and nobody knows where to start.Turns out infidelity isn't just sex outside the marriage. It's anytime you go outside your relationship to get pleasure that should be shared within it. Money. Communication. Emotional affairs. Physical ones. Renelle prefers the word “betrayal” because it's more accurate. You break contracts you didn't realise you'd signed.Here's the thing nobody talks about: it's not a male sport anymore. In her practice, men and women cheat in equal numbers. Women are leaving marriages after raising kids, after becoming empty nesters. The emotional labour falls heavily on them. Sometimes an affair is escape from domesticity. Not dissatisfaction. Escape.So what does affair recovery actually look like?Different from regular marriage counselling, for starters. More talking won't prevent betrayal. More sex won't prevent it. More date nights won't prevent it. The only things that stop betrayal are communication and not wanting to do it. That's it.Renelle's approach: you can't heal what you can't reveal. She works with the person who cheated first. Who did they become? What need were they trying to meet? Then she works with the person who stayed. Both deserve healing. Neither caused the affair, but both are responsible for their part in the marriage moving forward.I asked whether opening a relationship after betrayal ever works.Her answer was direct: it doesn't. Couples who open relationships successfully do so from trust and solid foundation. Starting that journey on a lie, with one partner settling because they can't keep the other person faithful, almost always fails. If you can't communicate basic needs with one person, adding more people just multiplies the chaos.My favourite bit? Renelle's seeing younger couples come to therapy after dating a month, maybe two. They want to learn how to communicate before problems arrive. They're treating therapy as education, not crisis management. They want enhancement, exploration, education, eroticism. That last one matters most.Eroticism is what's missing in long-term relationships, she said. When it leaves, people turn to porn. When you think you know everything about your partner, desire dries up.Literally.As Renelle put it: “When you think you know it all, that means you dried up. You're not getting hard or wet.”Fair point.What Matters* Women cheat just as much as men now. The numbers are equal.* Affair recovery heals individuals first, then the relationship.* You can't heal what you refuse to reveal. Truth comes before repair.* Opening relationships after betrayal rarely works. Trust must exist first.* Eroticism sustains long-term desire. Mystery matters more than familiarity.* Younger couples seek therapy as prevention. That's actual progress.Check out these resources from Renelle:The Pleasure Agenda: Couples Edition Undated PlannerPleasure After Betrayal: Aftercare Edition Undated PlannerThe Couple's Connection DeckConnect with RenelleWebsite https://renellenelson.thinkific.com/InstagramFacebookUnlock even more pleasure, clarity, and confidence in your intimate life by becoming a paid subscriber.You'll gain full access to every weekly blog, the complete archive of 150+ expert-led podcasts, the private chat room for candid Q&A, and my 32‑page guide Sex Toys and Supplements for Thriving in Later Life.If you're ready to deepen your knowledge, explore new possibilities, and feel fully supported on your journey, upgrade today only £6.99/month or £49.99/year.Sex Advice for Seniors is a reader-supported publication.

EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode, Emily sits down with volleyball legend Gabby Reece—professional athlete, podcast host of The Gabby Reece Show, entrepreneur—to talk about the unsexy truths that actually keep long-term relationships alive. Gabby pulls no punches as she reveals her controversial "48-hour sex rule," and how treating sex like going to the gym (just get your shoes on and show up) has sustained their passion for decades. This conversation dismantles the romanticized version of marriage and replaces it with raw honesty about vulnerability, stoicism almost ending her relationship, and why "misogynists are bitches" but real masculinity is powerful, protective, and tender. Gabby shares her four rules for keeping an alpha male happy (hint: food and sex made the list), the farmer versus flower dynamic that prevents resentment, and why her self-care hierarchy puts herself first, her relationship second, and her kids third—unapologetically. In this episode, you'll learn: • The 48-hour sex rule works—scheduling sex isn't sexy, but it's sexier than one partner begging and the other constantly rejecting; Gabby and Laird have sex every other day, and she admits she strategically loads her calendar the day after because she "doesn't have to answer to anyone" • Clear the decks daily to avoid divorce—Laird confronts everything immediately (every look, tone, word) so resentments never build; Gabby credits this practice with saving their marriage after years of her being too stoic nearly ended it • Understanding the farmer vs. flower dynamic—sometimes one partner is in the spotlight (the flower) while the other supports (the farmer), and the roles switch; when one person is always the farmer, resentment builds and relationships suffer • Real masculinity isn't misogyny—true masculine strength includes compassion, protection, and tenderness; we've trained men to feel bad about their masculinity, and bringing kindness (not anger) while setting boundaries helps everyone thrive • You have the goods—ask for what you want—Gabby's advice to young women about sex is radical: stop performing, start demanding your pleasure, and remember that good sex is about mutual understanding, not just one person's orgasm More Dr. Emily:  • Shop With Emily!

They kick things off with dating horror stories—including Jared's epic backwards fall off a patio chair that took out a sandwich board and a heat lamp. The conversation dives into why so many dates feel like obligations instead of opportunities. Jared and Jordana explain the "sure, I'll go" trap—how settling for matches that are just "fine" leads to boring dates and dating burnout. They emphasize trusting your gut and only going on dates when you're genuinely excited, not just because you feel like you should. They tackle dating app fatigue, discussing why some people thrive on apps while others find them soul-crushing. The key insight: it's about how you use them. Treating apps like a binge-worthy Netflix show instead of something you check in on intentionally (like one hour a week) kills the fun and makes everything feel transactional. The episode includes a listener question about a toxic long-distance relationship where a 22-year-old woman keeps breaking up and getting back together with an insecure boyfriend who constantly asks "are you still into me?" Jared and Jordana break down why this is a mismatch built on drama rather than trust, why her friends are right to be concerned, and how to choose which friends to actually listen to when it comes to relationship advice. They wrap with quickfire questions about turn-ons, turn-offs, what makes good sex, and the number one thing everyone should know: just because the sex is good doesn't mean the relationship is good.

The morbid exercise that Liz swears by for making better decisions in bed and everywhere else—and why thinking about your 85-year-old self might be the permission slip you need to stop worrying about how your thighs look in those pants. Why "friends with benefits" might mean something completely different to you than it does to your partner—and the crucial conversation most couples skip before slapping labels on their relationship (spoiler: this applies to marriage too). The biggest myth about what makes someone "good" in bed, and why Liz believes your sex life can transform no matter where you're starting from. That one body part you've never considered an erogenous zone—until Liz reveals hers and suddenly you're rethinking everything you thought you knew about turn-ons. The real reason habits fail (hint: it's not about willpower)—and why letting go of routines that once served you doesn't make you a failure, it makes you self-aware. Plus: the conversation starter deck that's saving marriages by getting couples on the same page about money, desire, childhood trauma, and the question "how much do you need to feel safe?" that revealed way more than Liz expected.
