Ageless & Shameless: Intimacy Reimagined in Midlife | Feminist Education

In this empowering episode of Please Me Podcast, host Eve welcomes Karen Bigman, certified sex educator and sex and dating coach, for a bold and refreshing conversation about sexuality, intimacy, and self-love after 50.

Together, they break open the often-silenced realities of midlife sexuality, exploring how desire, confidence, and connection can evolve—not disappear—with age. Karen shares insight into how hormonal shifts, life transitions, and changing relationship dynamics can all impact libido, and why midlife can actually be a powerful time for sexual rediscovery.

The conversation also dives into practical, real-world topics like dating after divorce, navigating new relationships with clear consent and communication, and the importance of STI testing when re-entering the dating world. Karen also highlights the role of sex toys, vibrators, and solo exploration in building confidence, pleasure, and body awareness.

From online dating etiquette and sexting boundaries to spotting red flags and rebuilding self-esteem, this episode offers grounded, shame-free guidance for women stepping into a new chapter of intimacy. Above all, it’s a celebration of body positivity, curiosity, and sexual empowerment at every stage of life.
