In this episode of Ageless Radiance Club, I’m joined by Dr Kelly Casperson, double Board Certified Urologist and sexual health advocate, podcast host and author of You Are Not Broken. You will hear a totally unfiltered conversation on desire, sexual longevity, and what it really means to stay connected—to ourselves and to our partners, through midlife and beyond.

Dr Kelly breaks down the myths around female pleasure, tackles the hormonal shifts that reshape desire during menopause, and explores why expert support and education are key to lasting sexual well-being.

From the role of testosterone to the real anatomy of arousal, this episode is about rewriting the script for women’s sexual health, with honesty, humour, and zero shame. Whether you’re navigating dryness, rethinking libido, or simply wanting to feel more connected, this one’s for you.
