Marriage & Menopause
Marriage and Menopause is the podcast where love, relationships, intimacy, and midlife collide.
Hosted by Dr. LaKeischa and her husband, Wendell, this candid husband-and-wife conversation explores what really happens to a marriage when hormones shift, bodies change, roles evolve, and the people you married are still becoming new versions of themselves.
From sex and intimacy to communication, emotional connection, power dynamics, privacy, money, aging, and the everyday moments nobody warns you about, Marriage and Menopause goes behind the curtain on the conversations couples are often having privately—or avoiding altogether.
With humor, vulnerability, a little disagreement, and both the medical and male perspective at the table, Dr. LaKeischa and Wendell create space for couples to better understand themselves, understand each other, and keep choosing one another through the changes of midlife.
Because menopause doesn’t just happen to a woman. It happens inside a relationship.
