Sexy is not an age, a dress size, or a number on the scale. It is a state of confidence, vitality, and connection. In this powerful conversation, I sit down with nurse practitioner and hormone expert **Kimberly Cunningham** to explore what it means to **redefine sexy in midlife.**

From hormone changes to pelvic floor health, from antidepressants to vibrators, we go where most conversations don’t. Kimberly shares insights from her clinical experience and we laugh, learn, and get real about what it looks like to embrace sexy at any age!

What we cover in Episode 78:

- How hormone shifts influence confidence, libido, and relationships

- The surprising role of testosterone in women’s pelvic floor health and sexual pleasure

- Why antidepressants are NOT the answer for low libido

- **Yes, sex toys!** How they can help support pleasure and connection

- The mindset shift that helps women feel empowered, confident, and fully alive

This is one you may want to watch on YouTube, where we share **anatomy visuals and examples of sex toys** alongside the discussion.

Over the past year, I’ve been on quite a journey. I'm down 43 pounds, with more energy, a healthy libido, and a renewed sense of self. But it wasn’t always this way. For too long, I struggled with depression and anxiety, not realizing they were among the 80+ possible symptoms of menopause.

In this very special 8-part series, I’m joined by board-certified nurse practitioner Kimberly Cunningham, founder of Cunningham Clinic, author, educator, and national trainer in hormone therapy and aesthetics. Kimberly shares her personal healing story after a devastating pelvic injury, and together we open the conversation about what it really takes to thrive after 40.

In today’s episode, we explore:

• Why so many women suffer in silence with perimenopause and menopause symptoms.
• Kimberly’s inspiring story of resilience and recovery through hormone therapy.
• The truth about testosterone and estrogen, and why women need both.
• How hormone replacement can protect against disease and restore vitality.

If you’ve ever thought, “Is this normal?” when facing changes in your body, this conversation is for you. You are not alone, and you don’t have to suffer!
