In this deeply insightful episode of Women Mastering Midlife, Victoria Byrd sits down with Christine Marie Mason, founder of Rosebud Woman—a company redefining intimate and sexual wellness through natural, body-honoring products and conscious conversation. Together, they explore the intersection of pleasure, embodiment, spirituality, and healing across every stage of a woman’s life.
Christine shares her journey from creating Rosebud Woman out of personal need to building a global movement that challenges shame and celebrates the feminine. This heartfelt discussion touches on the cultural conditioning around women’s bodies, how pleasure is a birthright—not a luxury, and the importance of daily rituals of self-care that reconnect us with softness, sensuality, and strength.
They also explore Christine’s new book, The Nine Lives of Women: Sensual, Sexual, and Reproductive Stages from Birth to 100, which reframes how we view womanhood beyond reproductive milestones—offering a roadmap for embracing joy, purpose, and liberation at every age.
