Ep 37: 🌴 Cabanas, Cuddles & Coaching: Our Trip to El Salvador Gets Spicy 💋🌀

What happens when the party ends? We get honest about the emotional hangover that hit us both—the letdown, the exhaustion, and the questions that linger after the fun fades. We open up about navigating big play parties as a couple, asking for what we need, and the sometimes awkward reality of fitting in when you’re not quite like everyone else. 😬From the highs of partying and connecting our friends, to the lows of feeling left out, meh vibes, and the struggle to balance self-care with social pressure, we’re sharing it all. We get real about the weirdness of party dynamics, the complexities of open relationships, and why sometimes you just need to do your own thing, take your own car and leave when you’re ready. 🚗✨If you’ve ever felt out of place in a crowd, wondered how to ask for what you want, or struggled with the morning after a big night out—this episode is for you. Join us for honest talk, laughter, and a reminder that even in the wildest spaces, it’s okay to just be yourself. 💕📩 Email us: [email protected] Love Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1YFEEPwYeB/Instagram @HackingLove_Podcast

We talk red flags 🚩, jealousy, and why true partnership means being on the same team—not just doing your own thing just because you "can". We get real about trust, boundaries, and what to do when your partner’s desire for solo exploits start to feel like you’re being left behind.We also spill the tea on what was just about the wildest party we’ve ever attended and share what it’s like to be in a room where really anything goes. Plus, we dig into a surprising new study about infidelity and why so many people don’t regret cheating, even in happy relationships. 🤯Also—political talk in the lifestyle? 😱 🙉Tune in for real talk, wild stories, and a reminder that love is always a work in progress.Email us at [email protected] Live Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1YFEEPwYeB/IG: @HackingLove_Podcast https://www.instagram.com/hackinglove_podcast/

🎙️ Hey guys! In episode 33, we continue to peel back the layers of the onion as we revisit our feelings around separate play—especially rules vs. no rules. Our conversation dives into how our understanding of ethical non-monogamy keeps evolving—not just as a lifestyle, but as a powerful relationship lab where radical honesty deepens intimacy.We ask: Is wanting to witness each other’s separate play 👀about being aroused? Or does it just feel more safe? 🛟 Does giving someone total freedom make the giver feel more loved—or more replaceable? From the hotwife dynamic to jealousy-as-turn-on, to the tough question“What if my partner starts wanting more from a play partner?” 😳As a bonus, Anna shares her revealing post-processing thoughts in an addendum at the end of the episode.We also, talk about what different types of orgasms can mean with full-time partners vs. play partners 😳, and explore whether “no rules” is a radical form of love?

🎙️ We’re back with Part 2 of our messy, honest unpacking of our recent separate play experience—because after sleeping on it, we definitely had more to say. 😅 We talk through everything from compersion to comparison, fairness in play, and what happens when that “good girl” programming meets a slutty experiment gone sideways. We get real about jealousy, 'justice', triggers from past relationships, and what it means to truly support your partner and yourself in ethical non-monogamy.We also hash out next steps for our upcoming play party—Can separate play ever feel fair? Can Aiden handle DJ'ing while I play with someone else on the mattress in front of him? (Spoiler: maybe 😳) Can we create space for both of us to follow our bliss without losing each other in the process?
