Sexual Summer: The Season of Desire That Sizzles

April 23, 2025

This week on Love Is…, we’re diving into Sexual Summer—the season of peak desire.

If spring is awakening, summer is full bloom.

It’s spontaneous. It’s primal. It’s the kind of hunger that lives in your skin and hums through your whole body.

For women over 40, sexual summer might hit hardest in midlife, when pregnancy is no longer a worry, and pleasure becomes a top priority.

In this episode, we explore:

  • How sexual summer shows up in midlife (even if it skipped your twenties)
  • What to do when your partner’s not in summer with you
  • The difference between urgent desire and aligned connection
  • Why a high libido is a sign of aliveness, not a problem
  • How to channel sexual energy into creativity, confidence, and connection

Whether you’re single, partnered, or somewhere in between, this episode is an invitation to feel everything—and do you, unapologetically.
