In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, Janet McGeever joins me to discuss Tantra and Menopause and how to continue to have a thriving sex live as we age.
Despite popular belief our sex lives are not over once we reach a certain age, they just change and, as Janet explains, they can change for the better.
No matter what your age, Janet shares some amazing advice for women on how to have more fulfilling sex, how to trust your body, leave the mind and come back ‘home’ into your body.
Janet discusses how, when you learn how to relax and leave behind tension to become more receptive and relaxed in love making; you are able to connect with yourself more fully, which allows you in turn to connect more fully with someone else.
"I've become more liberated, more sensual, more interiorly alive, personally".
The conditioning of our modern world and society places a lot of shame on women’s cycles and worships the young and the beautiful.
This podcast aims to hold you and help you embrace whatever stage of life you may be in and leave you feeling your value as a woman and the meaningful way you can connect to the World and your relationships regardless of age.
Not only will you learn about the changes that can happen to you and your sex life as you age and during Menopause, but how you can embrace those changes to have even better sex.

In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, Amy Towle joins me to explain Yoni Massage/Mapping, sexuality as part of our spirituality, self-love and the cultural conditioning that women get taught around their sexuality.
Yoni is a sanskrit word (pronounced yo-nee ) and refers to the female genitals as a sacred temple and source of life.
Amy believes that becoming a sexual being is a full-bodied experience and if you aren’t open and accepting of who you are as a sexual being, you’re never going to be able to fully embrace and step into that with another person.
Join us as we discuss how you can connect with the divine feminine within us, that is housed in our female reproductive organs.
Learn how Yoni Massage assists in this connection and how you can be more fearless with your sexuality and step into your power as a women to empower your entire life.

In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy – The Podcast, Kate Toon joins me to dive into the art of talking dirty with your partner.
When Kate reached out to me and said she gave 'great pod' - and had worked on a sex chat line, I knew I had to have her on the show.
Talking about sex and what we want can feel uncomfortable and just downright weird when we’re not used to it.
This podcast episode aims to empower you with some tips to get the sexy conversation started with your partner without it feeling forced or unnatural.
We all have the ability to ‘talk sexy’, you just need to find what works for you and ultimately your relationship.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Kate Toon’s experience working on a phone sex line.
- Something I talk a lot about on this show and in my work are the ways women hold themselves back during sex. We are given so many cultural messages that it’s not okay to be a woman who enjoys or feels comfortable with sex. And we’re not taught how to do it. This episode offers advice on how to become more comfortable with sex.
- Kate’s a copywriter and therefore master of words with some great tips or talking dirty and words that work/ don’t work to get you in the mood. HOT TIP: it doesn’t need to sound unnatural or over-the-top to be sexy.
- Sexting is also something women ask me about a lot! I did a survey as part of some research I was doing last year and I was overwhelmed with women telling me they would love to sext their partner but feel like they don’t know how. Kate and I discuss some great sexting tips.
- How ‘good sexual communication helps improve our sexual satisfaction.’
Learn to:
Ask for what we want / don’t want in the bedroom
Share appreciation or tell your partner what you like.
- Getting out of the ‘functional sex’ rut – how can you reignite the flame after having kids / being in a long term relationship?
- Kate’s experience at a Fellatio workshop. Learn how to making fellatio work for you and your partner.
- Shift your mindset of fellatio ‘as a gift for him or a reward or chore’ to ‘learn how to get pleasure out of doing it for yourself.’
- We’ve grown up in a society where we’re not given the skills or the right attitude towards sex. How can we move past that for ourselves and a healthier relationship?
