201. Baby I'm Back

Dr. Sonia Wright returns with a new season of her podcast, focusing on empowering women in midlife to embrace their sexuality and life without shame. She shares her journey of self-discovery and the importance of self-care, while promising deeper discussions on pleasure, relationships, and self-love.

Starting this podcast was my way of saying, "I'm done playing by the rules," and sharing my journey with all of you. Which is why I wanted to shift the focus to a powerful concept of "giving your last fuck". This isn't about sexual intimacy or specific acts - it's about living boldly and authentically, on your own terms. Midlife brings a newfound freedom, where the expectations and judgments of others start to fade, leaving us with the most important question: Are you truly happy?   Tune in to this final episode as we dive into how you can live your fullest life - authentically and unapologetically. We'll explore how to trust your intuition, prioritize your own happiness, and disregard the societal rules that were designed to keep us small. This is your moment, your second half of life, and I'm here to celebrate it with you. Let's make it count.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://soniawrightmd.com/200
