Fractured, exhausted, irritable as hell. Over 1 billion women around the globe are navigating menopause. Many are sexually active, yet their deeper desirous nature is barely represented in mainstream media. They feel misunderstood and invisible. I don’t feel like myself. My libido has disappeared. Why does sex feel different? Women who have never been given permission to understand ageing with agency.
Sexy Menopause is a holy disruption of everything women were taught to believe about desire, ageing and worth.
Drawing on decades of experience as a physiotherapist and pelvic and sexual health educator, and her own initiation through menopause and betrayal, Lisa Fitzpatrick blends storytelling, clinical insight, and evidence-based pelvic wisdom to help women navigate the biological event and spiritual threshold of midlife.
This book is a radical reframe of menopause as an erotic, psychological and spiritual awakening. Women deserve to feel sacred and undeniably sexy.
'Lisa Fitzpatrick brilliantly weaves the beauty of feminine spirituality with the science of the female body. She is an essential voice and a wise teacher. Her book, Sexy Menopause, is a treasure for mid-life women — an empowering guide to navigating the years through and beyond menopause. It has the power to gently lead you into what may become the richest and most fulfilling chapters of your life. I love this book.'
—Bronnie Ware, Author of the international bestseller, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying'This book stirred my soul from the first paragraph. Emotional, deeply empowering, beautifully written and utterly transformative, it completely changes the game around menopause. I’ll be buying a copy for all my sisterhood... cause it will change every woman's life.'
