Reclaiming Pleasure at Any Age: Pelvic Floor Power, Pompoir & Women’s Sexuality with Bel DiLorenzo

What if your sexuality didn’t have an expiration date?

In this episode of the Wise Divine Women Podcast, Dana Irvine sits down with Bel DiLorenzo for an open, empowering conversation about pelvic health, intimacy, libido, aging, and the fascinating practice of Pompoir—a method of developing strength, awareness, and intentional control of the pelvic floor muscles.

Bel’s journey began during the pandemic, when she searched for ways to improve intimacy in her own relationship. Her research led her to Pompoir, a practice believed to have historical roots in India. But when Bel tried to learn it, she found very little clear, practical instruction.

Bel shares stories of women in their 60s, 70s, and 80s discovering that they can continue learning about their bodies and reconnecting with pleasure. One particularly powerful story involves an 86-year-old student who used the practice to reconnect with a sensual, confident part of herself she felt she had lost.

This conversation isn't simply about sex. It is about body agency, self-connection, confidence, curiosity, and giving women permission to continue discovering themselves throughout every season of life.

Bel also discusses her desire to see more scientific research examining sexuality alongside areas such as sleep, energy, health, and longevity.

A Powerful Reminder

One of Bel’s central messages is:

“We have a lot more agency over our bodies and our pleasure than we were taught to believe.”

Whether you are navigating postpartum changes, perimenopause, menopause, changing libido, or simply wanting to reconnect with your body, this episode offers a refreshing reminder: sexuality and sensuality can remain meaningful parts of who we are at every age.
