Summary
Hoops & Glossers, this one's a must-listen. π In this first half of The Midlife Flame series, Melis sits down with Aimee Ames β a Somatica-trained Sex & Relationship Coach, Breathwork Facilitator, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and host of the There She Is podcast β to unpack what actually happens in long-term relationships once midlife hits. They dive into everything from perimenopause and the emotional load of motherhood to that weird "parallel lives" phase where you realize you and your partner are running the household but forgetting to actually connect. It's real, hilarious, and surprisingly hopeful. If you've ever wondered whether your relationship is stuckβ¦ it might just need a rekindling. In this episode, we talk about: π₯ Why so many couples start feeling disconnected in midlife π§ How hormones and perimenopause actually affect relationships β€οΈ The myth that you're "broken" if your marriage feels off π₯ The "embers" metaphor that will change how you see your relationship Make sure to come back next week for Part 2, when we get into physical intimacy, desire, kink, and what actually happens in a Somatica coaching session. Trust meβ¦ it gets good. π And remember, midlife doesn't have to be a crisis-it can be your identity rebrand! xoxo melis Connect with Aimee: Rekindle Program Info & Application β www.aimeeames.com Podcast β There She Is (on Apple & Spotify) Instagram β @aimeeamescoaching Connect with Melis: Website β motivatewithmelis.com Instagram β @motivatewithmelis Email β [email protected]
