For the 210th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes Cris Mazza, author of the new memoir, The Decade of Letting Things Go.

The book traces Cris’s journey through the aftermath of menopause and her search for self-acceptance amid a growing list of losses. In this episode, we discuss her lifelong experiences with anorgasmia, sexual dysfunction, and gender dysphoria—and how these shaped her relationships, identity, and creative work. It’s a fascinating and refreshingly honest conversation about intimacy, identity, and what it means to let go of expectations.
