Sex Gets Better With Age — Here's the Proof

I’m talking with intimacy expert and sexual biohacker Susan Bratton about why your sexuality doesn’t have an expiration date and how pleasure can actually become richer as you get older. We unpack what women really need for arousal, why stress and changing physiology can interfere with desire, and how giving yourself more time, better communication, and permission to explore can completely change your experience. I also love Susan’s practical strategies for creating more connection and novelty, from learning to listen to your body to building your own sex life bucket list.
