Menopause Mastery: How to have a Luscious Relationship with Juliette Karaman

This week, Betty spoke with Juliette Karaman, founder of Feel Fully You. She helps women reconnect with themselves and with their partners. Intimacy is founded on good communication but so many women are not equipped with the vocabulary to express their desires, if they even know them at all. With intentional curiosity, Juliette teaches you how to get to know yourself again and carry those skills into your relationship, because most divorces are rooted in bad communication patterns. As you learn what feels good in your body and learn how to tell that to your partner, they then can give it to you! Sometimes, it is that simple. It’s easy to complain and pick apart yourself and your partner but if you learn to devote your attention to the abundance in your life, you can rekindle the passion in your life.

Memorable Quotes:

“Everything is a communication. It might be verbally communicated through language or it’s the things that we do, It’s how we be and how we are as a human. It’s how we dress ourselves, what do we wear? How do we look at the world and what do we accept? How do we accept people treating us? [5:35] -guest

“What about if I change how emotionally I feel about things and if I start looking back at the things that are actually blocking me which often are emotional things that we just swept under the carpet. An intense experience that happened too fast for our minds and our psyche to process.” [9:12]- guest

“Communication is really key. Learning about your feelings , first of all, and then what emotions you have, what’s going on in your body and then being able to communicate it.” [12:05] – guest

“If you slow it down and can communicate; a little to the left, a little bit to the right, harder, softer, less pressure, more pressure. You start actually opening that up. It’s like, Oh!, I actually have sensation but we often don’t have the language for it, we don’t have the vocabulary for it.” [20:40]

“Be a high maintenance woman because then you actually know exactly what you want and you’re setting yourself and your partner up for success.” [26:37]
