BV Transmission Update and Partner Treatment

We are back again with Susan Bratton! I’m thrilled to welcome my friend and sex and intimacy expert Susan Bratton back to the podcast for another eye-opening conversation. Susan always brings the real talk, and today we’re going even deeper—literally and figuratively—into the world of sexual wellness.

We covered so much in this episode: 💫 Yoni massage—what it is, why it’s powerful, and how it can help women reconnect with their bodies 🧠 The science (and magic) behind orgasmic activation 🔍 Why understanding female anatomy is essential for better sex—for everyone 💉 The importance of blood flow, hormones, and tools for managing erectile dysfunction 📣 And of course, why communication is the real MVP when it comes to intimacy

We also touched on the realities of STIs in midlife, why sexual wellness is a lifelong journey, and how dropping the shame around pleasure opens the door to true empowerment.

This conversation is a blend of science, wisdom, and no-BS practical advice. Whether you’re curious about new techniques, want to support your partner better, or are just exploring what sex can look like in this next chapter of life—Susan brings it all to the table.

Let’s keep normalizing the conversations we never got to have. Because guess what? You’re not broken—and pleasure is not optional.
