概要

Many men over 40 take their health seriously but feel confused, frustrated, or quietly concerned about changes in their sex life. In this episode, Ted speaks with human sexuality expert Dr. Nicole McNichols about how stress, sleep, anxiety, body image, and relationship dynamics shape sexual health. They explore why common explanations like testosterone or blood flow often miss the bigger picture, and how unrealistic expectations fueled by culture and pornography can undermine confidence and desire. This conversation reframes sex as an essential part of overall health and longevity, offering a more grounded, evidence-based way to think about intimacy, performance, and connection. Listen now.
