If your partner's libido seems MIA since perimenopause showed up or if you are wondering where your own went, this episode is for you.

We're unpacking what's really going on with libido changes in this season, and how to stop treating each other like broken sex robots.

This is part 2 of our Perimenopause + Intimacy series, and today's convo includes the science of libido, nervous system safety, responsive vs spontaneous desire, and why your body (or your partner's) might just need a different kind of invite.

🎧 What you’ll hear:

  • What perimenopause does to libido (and what it doesn't)

  • The gas/brake system of desire, and how to use it

  • The mindset shift that gets you out of "maybe someday" mode

  • Why "fixing" things isn't the goal, co-creating is


 Hot tip:
If you're the higher libido partner, check out the Roommates to Romance Challenge — it's $9 and stupid practical.
