Carol Remz is 80. And an outspoken spokesperson about women’s sexuality as they age.

Back in the 1980’s when she was experiencing perimenopause and menopause, discussions about women’s health, intimacy, and aging were largely taboo and Carol was left to navigate her health challenges by herself.  A serendipitous encounter with sea buckthorn, a plant known for its healing properties, transformed her experience.

Carol talks about the various preconceptions that often interfere with romantic relationships as we age and why we need to dispel them. Aging well, she notes, means working on personal acceptance.. Practicing that self acceptance, and all the changes that come with aging, is the first step to open the path to true intimacy. 

Carol believes that true intimacy goes beyond physicality and is rooted in emotional connection and acceptance of one’s vulnerabilities. To that end, she has written a book that aims to educate and empower women about their sexuality and health, providing the sex education many missed out on during their formative years. Not to mention their menapausal mid-life years!

Her message is clear: we are not defined by our age or circumstances but by love and acceptance.
