BONUS: From No Sex To Best At 49
Overlooked, touched-out and too tired. That's how many MID women feel about sex. It's how Leslie Morgan felt, too. At 49, her marriage ended, and after not having sex for three years, she decided to change that. Over the next year, Leslie found five boyfriends and discovered her sexual self wasn't actually dead, she was just having a good lie down. MID is back for season 2, and it is jam packed with incredible stories, big guests and so much goodness for you to enjoy. In this interview with Holly Wainwright, author and advocate Leslie Morgan discusses what women really mean when they say they no longer care about sex, why you should never cover your wrinkles to attract a younger man (if you want one) and how it feels to have the best sex of your life after 50. Welcome to MID, Season 2, Episode 1: Sex. And if you want more of MID - click here. LINKS: You can learn more about Leslie and find her books here.You can follow Leslie on Instagram here.
