I started where so many midlife adults find themselves: confused, dismissed, and wondering, “Is this it?”

After turning 60, I realized how deeply shame, silence, and misinformation shape our experiences of sex and aging. I was done whispering. I certified as a menopause coach & sex educator, got loud, and got real.

Now I use science, humor, and lived experience to spark the conversations most people are afraid to have. I talk about the real stuff: disappearing libidos, lube, orgasms, kink, fantasy, painful sex, performance anxiety, and what happens when you start dating again in your 50s and 60s and realize no one taught you how to use a dating app—or ask for what you want in bed.

I’m Karen Bigman, a Certified Sex Educator, Menopause Coach, and host of Taboo to Truth: Life & Sex After 50, a podcast where we say the quiet parts out loud. My mission? To bring honesty, humor, and expert-backed insight to the often-ignored world of midlife sexuality, aging bodies, and relationships that evolve (or explode) and to get everyone to have sex for the rest of their lives.

Whether your audience is partnered, single, curious about open relationships, rethinking monogamy, or just wants to spice up their long-term sex life, I help make the taboo feel totally normal—and even exciting. From reigniting intimacy to navigating kink in midlife, I provide the language, tools, and permission people need to explore sex on their own terms.

I'm a guide for men in midlife who are often left out of the conversation—dealing with changes in libido, erectile function, relationship disconnect, or just wanting to understand their partner’s shifting needs. I help men become better lovers, communicators, and confident participants in their own pleasure.
