Episode Description

In this show Colette will interview Dr. Diana Hoppe, award-winning author of the book: Healthy Sex Drive, Healthy You. Dr. Hoppe is a board-certified OB/GYN in Encinitas, California. Diana has been called the “Hormone Queen” because of her success in helping women turn up their sex drive by balancing and optimizing their hormones. Dr. Hoppe will talk about why sex is so important to a woman’s health and well-being. She will explain how a woman’s sexual desire is impacted by puberty, menstrual cycle phases, pregnancy, motherhood, and menopause. She will address how stress, birth control, illness, and medications affect libido and what women can do to reduce the impact of these challenges and keep their sex drives up. Diana will explain how differences in the male and female brain set men and women sexually at odds, but she’ll also tell us how to manage these differences, and how to get the fire of sexual connection blazing again.

I'm a psychotherapist specializing in marriage therapy, and an AASECT certified sex therapist. My husband, Dr. Mark Malan PhD, and I are a husband- wife clinical team at Malan Relationship Health Clinic. We’ve helped thousands of couples in the last 22 years resolve their sex and relationship problems and develop rewarding intimacy.

If you want to have a great love life, but are struggling with relationship and sexual challenges, we can help you. My husband and I know first-hand what it feels like to have sex and relationship problems. Our sexual incompatibilities almost tore us apart, but we didn’t give up. We found answers and tools, and prioritized really loving each other. Now, after 38 years, we not only deeply love each other, but we are in-love with each other. We can guide you from where you are to where you want to be.
