Session 376: Sexuality As We Age

In yet another episode of our 2024 Sex Positive September celebration, we’re discussing the ways in which our sex lives change and evolve as we get older. While the symptoms women experience during menopause and perimenopause can cause our sex lives to shift in some challenging ways, that doesn’t mean you still can’t embrace sexual vibrancy no matter the age. Joining me for today’s conversation is the New York Times Bestselling author of "Grown Woman Talk," Dr. Sharon Malone. Dr. Malone is a nationally known expert in women’s health, serving as the Chief Medical Advisor at Alloy Women’s Health, a telehealth company that focuses on women over 40. Dr. Malone and I chatted about all things menopause & sex, including how to combat some of the various symptoms that can make the idea of having sex less than appealing. We also discuss the importance of continued OBGYN visits even as you reach the end of your reproductive years, plus all the reasons why grown womanhood is something to look forward to, not to fear. About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.
