Brian Crombie Radio Hour - Epi 1507 - What Really Happens to Women Midlife with Katia Stern

Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian chats with Katia Stern, a board-certified clinical sexologist who has had one of the most fascinating career journeys he's heard: from lawyer to fitness competitor to executive coach — and now doing her PhD research on perimenopausal women. Katia tells Brian very candidly that you can have the perfect-looking life — success, real estate, the gym body, the titles — and still feel like you’re disappearing on the inside when perimenopause hits. That’s what drove her to this work: so many women in their 40s and 50s feeling invisible, struggling with body changes, intimacy, hormones, and no one explaining what’s happening.Together, they discuss the difference between “sexy coaching” online and real, science-based clinical sexology, how perimenopause affects relationships and desire, why a lot of her private clients are actually men trying to understand their partners, and how tools like hypnotherapy, nutrition, and strength training can help women get their confidence and pleasure back.
