Menopause is a transition every woman goes through, yet so much of it is misunderstood. This week on Sex Love Psychedelics, I sit down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg to explore the emotional, physical, and hormonal shifts of perimenopause and menopause. From navigating changes in libido and intimacy to the emerging role of psychedelics in symptom relief, we break the stigma and bring the science. Because when it comes to aging, sexuality, and well-being, knowledge isn’t just power—it’s liberation.
