The Jen Marples Show for Midlife Women

Best Of: How to Reclaim Your Pleasure with Gabriella Espinosa

Jen Marples Episode 224

This Best Of replay features Gabriella Espinosa, a women's empowerment and sexuality coach, and she's about to shatter everything you think you know about pleasure after 40. Gabriella went from high-powered PR executive to burned-out mom who completely lost touch with her sexual self - until perimenopause hit and she realized that woman was still in there, just buried under years of putting everyone else first. Her journey back to herself led her to become a certified midlife empowerment and sexuality coach, and now she's on a mission to help women reclaim what's rightfully ours: our pleasure.

If you've ever felt like your libido packed up and left without a forwarding address, or if the thought of intimacy feels more like another item on your to-do list, this conversation will change everything. Gabriella breaks down the science of why women's desire works differently than men's (spoiler: we need those pleasure pathways awakened first), plus she gives practical steps you can start tonight. From the simple joy of wearing pink lipstick to more intimate self-exploration practices, she proves that pleasure truly has no expiration date - and reclaiming it might be the most radical act of self-care you can do.

Key Takeaways:

  • The desire revelation: Why women need arousal BEFORE desire kicks in (and how this changes everything about intimacy)
  • Pleasure pathway activation: Simple daily practices to reconnect with your body and expand your capacity for pleasure
  • The menopause reality check: Practical solutions for dryness, pain, and the physical changes that can disconnect us from our sexuality
  • Self-touch without shame: How exploring your own body becomes the foundation for better intimacy with yourself and your partner
  • The ripple effect: Why prioritizing your pleasure isn't selfish - it's the energy source that feeds every other area of your life

Gabriella Says: You’re Not Too F***ing Old! to have great sex!
