Pregnancy, Cuddle Parties & Why Orgasms Change - Open Bedroom Doors Ep. 15

In this episode of Open Bedroom Doors, we dive into pleasure, relationships, and the truths people rarely say out loud. We kick things off with our Sex Positions segment, where I teach you the art of giving a vulva massage: a mindful, connected way to create pleasure, safety, and deeper intimacy. Next, I sit down with the brilliant Dr. David Ley, a leading voice in sexual health and relationships. Together, we explore what it really looks like to open up a relationship safely. We talk about ethical non-monogamy, how couples build trust through transparency, and how open relationships evolve as people gain experience, emotional maturity, and clarity about their boundaries.  Find David here: https://www.davidleyphd.com/ And finally, in my Happy Ending segment, I answer one of the most common (and painful) questions I receive: “Can you heal after infidelity?” We unpack how couples rebuild trust, whether healing is truly possible, and what it takes to repair a relationship after betrayal. It’s an episode full of honesty, insight, and permission to design the love life that fits you. ============================================================= Hosted by Angela Skurtu, Licensed Marriage Therapist & Certified Sex Therapist, this channel is your go-to for real, unfiltered conversations about sex, love, relationships, and everything in between.

Welcome to The Open Bedroom Doors Show – Episode 19! We start off with our Sex Positions Segment, where I dive into the art of mentally enjoying being the giver in intimate acts — yes, even something like a mindful penis massage. It’s all about connection, confidence, and presence. Next, I sit down with Just Jude, who opens up about what it’s really like to live life as a swinger — the joys, challenges, and the communication it takes to make it work. Finally, we wrap up with The Happy Endings Segment, where I share how to bring up unique kinks when you’re dating someone new — without fear, shame, or awkwardness.

When do most couples start having sexual problems? 🤔 Often during pregnancy and after the second baby—because intimacy doesn’t adjust to the changes. In this episode of Open Bedroom Doors, I share how couples can keep passion alive through life transitions. Then, I interview Michelle Renee, host of cuddle parties, where she teaches the importance of consent, boundaries, and safe touch. You’ll hear how cuddling can transform connection and why saying “no” is just as powerful as saying “yes.” Finally, in the Happy Ending segment, I answer a common question: “Why don’t I orgasm during sex?” We’ll explore how aging, health, and erections impact sexual pleasure—and what you can do about it. 💡 Whether you’re navigating intimacy after kids, curious about cuddle parties, or wanting real talk about orgasms, this episode is packed with insights to help you open bedroom doors. 🔗 Watch Michelle Renee’s work: https://www.instagram.com/cuddlemichelle/?hl=en https://cuddlist.com/michelle 👉 Subscribe for more real talk about relationships & intimacy:  [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqck0ypOkthwazzdobE8cLUK-kvdcaPiH&si=JQ_0GEfhKzIJf2Zh] Welcome to The Open Bedroom Doors Show!

In this heartwarming and grounded episode of the Open Bedroom Doors Show, we explore the foundational power of friendship, touch, and emotional safety in lasting relationships. My guests this week are Byron and Margaret McKie of the Beyond I Do podcast, and they share invaluable advice on what it takes to make a relationship last. 🔹 Segment 1: Sex Positions We begin with an intimate conversation about the often-overlooked power of cuddling and skin-to-skin contact—especially for couples navigating pregnancy. Discover how non-sexual touch helps build connection, reduce stress, and keep intimacy alive during times of physical and emotional transition. 🔹 Segment 2: Interview with Margaret & Byron McKie Next, we welcome long-time partners and real-life relationship role models, Margaret and Byron McKie, to talk about the art of friendship in marriage. How do you keep liking the person you love—decades in? We get into laughter, conflict, teamwork, and the little things that build long-term emotional intimacy. 🔹 Segment 3: Happy Endings (Listener Q&A) We close the episode with a bold and timely listener question: “How important are gender roles in a relationship, and how can I avoid toxic masculinity?” Angela breaks down how rigid roles can harm intimacy and what it really means to show up as an emotionally available and respectful partner. This episode is all about real love with depth, play, and honesty. Whether you're pregnant, partnered for decades, or questioning gender dynamics—there’s something here for everyone. 🎧 Tune in, touch in, and keep those bedroom doors open.
