I love chocolate, and I love talking about sex, so when I discovered a chocolate brand designed to support women’s libido, I knew I had to have this conversation.
In this episode, I sit down with Dr Kelly Barron, a menopause specialist, chiropractor, certified sexologist, and founder of Dr Kellfire’s, a chocolate brand created to support desire, hormone balance, and pleasure.
Kelly explains why menopause ends the sex life you used to have and begins one you get to design, why taking sex off the table is the first step to reclaiming pleasure, and how to work with responsive desire instead of waiting for the mood to strike.
Here’s what we cover:
How Kelly’s chocolate line came together, and the herbs behind each formula
Why she became a certified sexologist after years as a menopause specialist and chiropractor
The dating app trick that changed how I see myself as an older woman
Why younger men are drawn to older women, and whether it’s built to last
How responsive desire works, and why it takes longer to get in the mood now
The lingerie storytelling moment that made me rethink how I build anticipation
Why scheduling sex and creating rituals can make intimacy more exciting, not less
