    Can You Teach an Old Dog New Tricks? | Eden Restored

    Does intimacy have to fade as you get older? The Spencers break the myth that passion dies with age. In this episode, they talk honestly about “new bodies,” menopause, erectile changes, and why great midlife love is built on curiosity, communication, and the gift of slowness.
