 Empowering women (and the partners who love them) to live their best mid lives. Combining the power of mind-work, body-science and relationships, I joyously smash the societal barriers that are keeping us from living our best intimate lives. Whether you are young or past menopause, single or in a long-term relationship, it is never too late or too early to realize YOU ARE NOT BROKEN. With humor, candor and ease, I break down the stories that we have been told about being sexual beings, to help us play, and normalize our intimacy and health. Nothing in this podcast is personal medical advice, of course.Kelly Casperson, MD Enfermedades Físicas Hygiene & Healthy Living

    322. Surgical Menopause - A Personal Narrative
    Jun 15 2025
    In this episode, number 322, I sit down with sex therapist Dr. Juliana Hauser for a deeply personal and powerful conversation about her experience with surgical menopause. She opens up about the decision-making process around her hysterectomy—what led her there, what she wishes she'd known beforehand, and how it impacted her physically, emotionally, and sexually. We discuss the importance of thoroughly understanding your hysterectomy options—not all procedures are the same, and having the right information can make a significant difference. Dr. Hauser shares how guided imagery became a key part of her healing process, and we dive into the complicated (and often frustrating) world of hormone therapy. She also brings up the role of doulas—not just for birth, but for menopause—highlighting how emotional support can be just as essential as medical care. We explore why open communication in relationships matters so much, especially when it comes to sexual confidence and intimacy post-surgery. This conversation is raw, real, and full of wisdom for anyone navigating hormonal changes, recovery after hysterectomy, or simply learning to advocate for themselves in a system that doesn’t always listen. https://dr-juliana.com/ https://flourishwholehealth.com/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Order my book⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ "You Are Not Broken: Stop "Should-ing" All Over You Sex Life" and ⁠⁠⁠⁠"Menopause Moment: Science, Hormones and Mindset for Optimal Longevity"⁠⁠⁠⁠ Listen to my Tedx Talk: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Why we need adult sex ed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take my Adult Sex Ed Master Class:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Interested in my sexual health and hormone clinic? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Waitlist is open⁠⁠⁠⁠ To learn more about GennaMD by Solv Wellness, visit ⁠gennaMD.com ⁠for 20% off your first order.

  • 321. Joy, Burnout, and Being Real in Medicine with Dr. Tiffany Moon

    321. Joy, Burnout, and Being Real in Medicine with Dr. Tiffany Moon
    Jun 8 2025
    Welcome back! In this episode 321, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Tiffany Moon—an anesthesiologist, mom, entrepreneur, and yes, former Real Housewife. We delve into what it truly means to find joy in midlife and how social media often distorts our perception of happiness. Tiffany gets real about the pressure so many professionals—especially women in medicine—feel to "do it all" and how that expectation can lead straight to burnout. We talk about the addiction to busyness, the cultural layers that shape how we view therapy, and the wild (and often hilarious) intersection of medicine and reality TV. We also touch on AI’s growing presence in healthcare and what it means to redefine professionalism in today’s world. This one’s about self-trust, self-acceptance, and not waiting to enjoy your life. Dr. Tiffany brings humor, honesty, and a refreshing dose of perspective to a conversation that every working woman—especially in medicine—needs to hear.

    320. New GSM Guidelines: Science, Safety, and Speaking Up
    Jun 1 2025
    In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, I’m diving into the brand-new clinical guidelines for Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM)—because you deserve facts, not fear. We’re breaking down what GSM actually is, why it’s so often overlooked, and how these updated recommendations can help you and your clinician make informed, collaborative decisions about your care. I walk you through the full range of treatment options—yes, including hormones—and explain why vaginal estrogen remains a safe, effective choice, even for breast cancer survivors. We also talk about: Why education around hormonal changes in midlife isn’t optional The role of pelvic exams (and how to make them less intimidating) Non-hormonal treatments that actually work Why this all matters: GSM impacts your quality of life, intimacy, and overall health This episode is your call to action. Use these new guidelines as a springboard for conversations with your healthcare provider—especially if they’re not up to speed. Your body. Your voice. Your choice.

Women’s sexual and mental health education is severely inadequate and sometimes nonexistent. I believe in Dr. Casperson‘s message “You are not broken”. We need to make this go viral!!

Amazing!!! How did I not know these things?

A client shared Dr. C's information with me a few months ago. I have only started listening recently. I am 12 yrs post menopause and I struggle with trying to find my libido... it's hidden. I did not know I could see a urologist for this. Now I need to find one in Raleigh to go see.
Thank You!!!

She continues to amaze me
