Welcome back for another episode of the Owning Your Sexual Self podcast! I love getting to record episodes with friends who are just as passionate about this work as I am, and today’s guest is one of those people! Shannon is a midlife coach and somatic practitioner, helping women navigate perimenopause, menopause, and all the shifts that come with this phase of life. She is all about embracing midlife as a time of magic instead of crisis, and I cannot wait for you to hear everything she has to share!

In this episode:

  • How perimenopause changes your body and what you can do about it
  • The patterns from your childhood that may still affect your life today
  • The power of play in keeping your relationship exciting
  • How to stop relying on outside opinions and trust your own body
  • The importance of surrounding yourself with women who inspire you
  • Exploring midlife as a time of discovery, not crisis

Thank you so much for listening!  Don't forget to share on your social media and tag me if you loved this episode!
