You’re not frigid.
And you’re definitely not “just old now.”
If you’re a woman over 50 who looks successful on the outside—but inside feels numb, disconnected, or quietly resentful of intimacy—this episode will stop you in your tracks.
Because what’s killing your desire has nothing to do with lingerie, hormones alone, or “trying harder.”
It’s your nervous system.
In this episode of Sexy After 50, I dismantle the most damaging lie women’s health has sold midlife women:
That if you don’t want sex anymore, something is wrong with you.
Drawing from neuroscience, somatic psychology, and the work of Emily Nagoski, along with research from the Kinsey Institute, I explain why most women after 50 no longer experience spontaneous desire—and why that’s not a failure, but a shift into a more sophisticated form of arousal.
You’ll finally understand:
- Why your labs can look “normal” while your body feels shut down
- Why chronic stress, resentment, and emotional overload suppress desire faster than aging ever could
- Why being high-functioning, capable, and constantly “on” is the fastest way to lose access to pleasure
This is intimacy, sensuality, and women’s sexual health explained through the nervous system—without shame, fluff, or fixing.
I also share the story of a high-achieving woman who believed her sex life was over—until she realized her body didn’t need more effort.
It needed safety.
You’ll hear how desire returned not because she forced it, performed for it, or fixed herself—but because she learned how to bring her nervous system out of survival mode.
I’ll also guide you through a simple somatic practice designed to gently reawaken your hips, pelvis, and pleasure center—without pressure, expectation, or obligation.
Research published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine shows that chronic stress dramatically lowers sexual desire and satisfaction—even when hormones are stable.
Translation:
It’s not that your desire is gone.
It’s that your body has been protecting you.
And once you hear this, you won’t be able to unhear it.
If you’ve ever thought:
- “This explains exactly how I feel.”
- “Why did no one tell me this sooner?”
- “I need to send this to a friend.”
Do it.
Listen with your body - not your to-do list. Share this episode with a woman who feels invisible, ashamed, or hopeless. And let this be the moment you stop blaming yourself.
