528. Unfiltered REAL Talk About Sex, Amazing Orgasms, Libido and More with Intimacy Expert Susan Bratton

Author: Dr. Amie Hornaman May 27, 2025 Duration: 56:44
If you’ve ever wondered why your libido has gone MIA, why amazing orgasms feel elusive, or why your partner just doesn’t seem to initiate anymore—this episode is your unfiltered, no-holds-barred roadmap to sexual vitality. I sit down with intimacy expert Susan Bratton, and together we rip up the old scripts about “foreplay,” shake off outdated ideas of what sex is supposed to be, and dive deep into the real (and fixable!) reasons behind low libido, lackluster pleasure, and the myth that a dry spell is just “how it goes” in midlife. We get nitty-gritty about everything: blood flow, hormonal shifts, raw truths about anatomy, how stress and society have shaped your sex life, and the very best hacks (yes, legit biohacks!) to reignite sensation and satisfaction no matter your age or health status. Susan and I answer spice-packed listener questions—think lost orgasms, clitoral atrophy and male desire dips with all the practical tools and science-backed supplements you need to see real change. This episode is filled with actionable tips on nitric oxide boosters, sex toys that actually rejuvenate, red light therapy for the yoni, and exactly what to do if it’s your partner (not you!) struggling with desire. Whether you’re dealing with thyroid issues or just tired of patriarchal nonsense, you’ll finish this episode ready to get curious, reclaim your pleasure, and extend both your healthspan and your sex span—because when sexual pleasure thrives, your whole body and relationship come alive.
