Sex After 60, Part Two: What We Didn't Say the First Time

August 25, 2026·40 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Our first episode on sex after 60 clearly struck a nerve, so Auckland sex therapist Edit Horvath is back for round two, and this time nothing is off the table. We talk about how to start a conversation about intimacy after years of silence, what happens when caregiving for a partner leaves no room for romance, and why later-life affairs, whether with a colleague, a sex worker, or a chatbot, are becoming more common than you'd think. Edith also unpacks why so many later-life divorces are being led by women, why some long-term couples choose to stay in separate homes, and a genuinely surprising fact about female anatomy that most doctors weren't even taught until 1998. It's honest, it's practical, and yes, it gets frank. Fair warning. Let's get into it. The Next Bit Host is: Hannah McQueen - Founder of Brightly Guest: Edit Horvath, Sex Therapist Join our community!
