173: Discernment as Power, Eroticism Across Our Lifespan, + Later Age Motherhood with Christine Mason

Author and Rosebud Woman founder Christine Mason joins me to
explore what it means to live erotically and powerfully through
every stage of womanhood. We dive into her work on aging, agency,
and discernment—from embracing our sensuality at any age to
navigating later-age motherhood with clarity and choice.
Christine shares insights from The 9 Lives of Women, breaking
down cultural narratives around sex, aging, and reproductive
freedom. We also discuss the importance of body rituals,
intergenerational healing, and how staying embodied can support a
vibrant, empowered life well into elderhood.
