Everyday Intimacy with Angela Rivero

Pleasure Has No Expiration Date: Mature Sexuality, Healing, and Hope for Women at Every Age

16 Jun 2025

Description

Anne More ON: Phases of womanhood. Sexuality as we age. Why pleasure doesn’t have an expiration date, and why it matters that women deeply, truly know this.Anne brings such a grounded sense of beauty, permission, and hope for women who may believe their desire, their pleasure, their erotic aliveness is over... impossible... or simply no longer meant for them.Maybe you’ve thought: “I shouldn’t want this anymore.” Or “It’s selfish to have these needs now.” Or “It’s too late for me.”We explore Erotic Blueprints™ , a framework that helps people understand their unique ways of experiencing and expressing desire, connection, and pleasure, showing how everyone has their own pattern that shapes what feels truly satisfying. We also dive into STREAM (Scar Tissue Remediation, Education, and Management), a specialized approach focused on healing physical and emotional trauma held in the body’s scar tissue. Though distinct from each other, both offer powerful pathways to deepen intimacy, release stuck tension, and open up new possibilities for pleasure and connection.And we name something that’s rarely said out loud:For so many women, there’s a quiet belief that we’re not supposed to have needs. Or if we do, we shouldn’t ask for them directly. After all, shouldn’t our partner just know?And here’s the other side of that:Men, especially in long-term relationships, have also been taught that they should already know how to do this. How to please. How sex and intimacy are supposed to work.So they don’t ask. Because if they have to ask, it means they’ve somehow failed.But what they “know” may be based on things they learned 20 or 30 years ago...or from sources that were incomplete, confusing, or even harmful.This is how couples get stuck.Women feel disconnected from what they actually want, need, or desire... so they don’t voice it.Men feel they should know, so they don’t ask, don’t check in, don’t get curious.And of course... the relationship suffers. The bedroom goes quiet.She feels unseen, unmet.He feels confused, unsure, maybe even rejected.It’s no wonder so many couples—especially the ones who deeply care about each other—feel lost or out of touch.But it doesn’t have to stay that way.This episode gently unpacks how these patterns shift. How couples can reconnect. How women can rediscover their own desires, not just in the bedroom, but in life. And how men, too, can feel relieved of the impossible pressure to “just know,” and instead become curious, connected partners again.About Today’s Guest:As a Somatic Sexologist, older woman, mother, teacher, coach, bodyworker, and mentor, Anne More delights in supporting long term couples and high achievers in exploring mature sexuality and devotional eroticism.
