Ready for the Sex Eduction you never got?!
Midlife brings changes - physically, emotionally, and sexually. We might find ourselves navigating challenges, like pain, disinterest, frustration or boredom in our sexual experience. This festival offers a 'no holes barred' opportunity to explore the game-changing information you didn't know you needed. I will keep it real, vulnerable and ask the questions others won't - because you and I deserve that. We'll cover everything from vaginal dryness solutions to kinky sex, pelvic floor health to disability and pleasure, mindful masturbation to the best lube for your menopausal fanny - and everything in between!
What Makes Us Different? The MidLife Sex Festival interviews are exclusively tailored to women in perimenopause and menopause. It's a place where your pleasure finally gets center stage. Oh and FYI, our experts aren't just information dumping, they are providing actionable insights, vulnerable personal experiences and expert guidance. Best of all - we've done the research for you, chosen the best in the world in their field and cut the bull-shit out, because we don't want our time wasted and neither do you.
Our Big Promise: By joining us, you're not just accessing information; you're setting off on a journey towards empowered sexual wellness, deeper intimacy, and a more pleasure-filled sexual experience and expression. Your sex life deserves not to wait, so we'll see you inside!

Throughout this website, we use the term women when describing people who experience symptoms as a consequence of perimenopause and menopause. However, we acknowledge not only those who identify as women require access to menopause and sexual health information. For example, some trans men, non-binary people, intersex people or people with variations in sex characteristics may also experience menopausal symptoms. This festival centers the experience of cis-gendered women and we warmly welcome everyone who needs this support to join the festival, irrespective of gender or sexual expression.
The MidLife Sex Festival Begins In...
Your Host Dr Claire...
I am a medical doctor who treats people with breast cancer and that's the least exciting thing about me! More importantly for you, I am a woman who is passionate about supporting people to create the kind of sex life that is right for them. I bring my own brand of science-based, no bull-shit, real-world sex education for mid-life women with compassion and humour. I create vibrant sex-positive spaces where people feel safe to explore and thrive.
Through my work as a Certified Somatic Sex Educator, women tell me that, although they don't want it to be, they feel that their sex life is over. I want women the world over to know that it doesn't need to be this way, whether you are struggling with vaginal dryness and pain, or loss of libido, there are many ways to deal with these issues and have the sex life you want.
I am a woman navigating her own menopause journey, and even though I'm an expert in this stuff, it took me a while to notice the subtle changes in my body for what they were.
I deliver training to healthcare professionals on matters of sexuality and love nothing more than speaking in public about all things sex. I am certified in Clinical Supervision and offer supervision and support to other professionals.
My promise to you...
You are not alone. You are not broken, and pleasure is absolutely possible for you.
You deserve a happy and fulfilling sex life – everyone does.
You can feel alive, vibrant and confident in your body again. You can learn how to tap into the amazing joy and pleasure your beautiful body is capable of. You can experience passion, desire and sexual fulfilment deeper than ever before. You can heal your relationship with yourself, and from that will come expansion in all your important connections.
All it takes is for you to show up for yourself and invest the time, energy and finances into choosing you... perhaps for the first time.
This journey is not about returning to some 'former glory'. It's about finally choosing to become who you were always supposed to be.
Why join us now?
Facing this time of your life head-on can feel daunting. The doubts, discomfort, and disruption are a lot to process, and it's tempting to tell yourself, "Maybe it will get better with time," or "I'll deal with this later."
But let's pause for a moment.
You're here, reading this because part of you knows there's more for your life than your current reality reflects.
The truth is, menopause is not just a phase to endure; it's an opportunity - to reconnect with yourself, redefine your desires, and revitalise your relationships in ways you've never experienced before.
You deserve a space to express your fears, ask questions, and begin your journey to sexual wholeness.
You deserve a community that supports you, experts that understands you, and information that empowers you.
Your pleasure, pain, vitality & emotional experience deserve not to wait.
Let's think BIGGER than just relieving discomfort or managing symptoms. There is so much more available to you than that. You can choose pleasure, passion and a vibrant life full of new experiences and deep connections, even if you can't imagine it right now.
So, why wait for another day, another month, another year to pass by with the same fears, the same discomfort, the same miscommunication?
If you recognise yourself here in these words, it's not a question of whether or not this summit is right for you right for you. The real question is, how soon do you want to get started? The sooner you begin the beautiful journey that awaits you, the faster you'll start experiencing the profound changes available to you.
You have a tribe waiting to welcome you, experts ready to guide you, and a future brimming with potential just one decision away...
