Ep. 28 - Libido: What's Going On Down There?

Your libido can tell you a lot more about your health than you might think, and that’s why James often asks about it in clinic.

They also cover the impact of perimenopause, menopause, performance anxiety, and relationship dynamics — and what you can do to bring your mojo back. If your spark’s fizzled out or you’re just curious to understand more, this episode is for you.
