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.

In this special clip-show episode of The Open Bedroom Doors Show, licensed sex therapist Angela Skurtu takes intimacy advice to a whole new level—by stepping into her superhero alter-ego: "Action Angela".
Through highlights from the past five episodes, Angela and her guests tackle some of the most important conversations around sex, intimacy, and connection:
💬 Talking to kids about bodies, boundaries, and puberty
💬 Reducing shame around sex education
💬 Building trust and friendship in long-term relationships
💬 How to keep intimacy alive after having kids
💬 Exploring playful tools like the Wheel of Consent & the Three-Minute Game
But this isn’t just education—it’s an epic battle for love and intimacy. Watch as Action Angela takes on the sinister villain Lord LockJaw, who uses shame, silence, and stress to slam bedroom doors shut. Can courage, communication, and curiosity break his grip?
The fight for love continues—one bedroom at a time. 💕

Welcome to Open Bedroom Doors Show – Real Talk for Real Relationships with Angela Skurtu, M.Ed., LMFT-S, CST-S. In Episode 12, we’re diving into some of the most important conversations couples face after becoming parents.
💋 Segment 1: Sex Positions & Intimacy After Baby
Bringing a baby into the world changes everything—including your sex life. I’ll share insights on how intimacy shifts after childbirth and what couples can do to stay connected while navigating recovery, exhaustion, and new parenthood.
🩺 Segment 2: Interview with Brooke Kalisiak (Legacy Physical Therapy)
Pain after birth is more common than people realize, and for many women, it makes sex difficult—or even impossible. I sit down with pelvic floor physical therapist Brooke Kalisiak to discuss how pelvic floor therapy can help restore pleasure, intimacy, and confidence in your body again. If pain is keeping you from enjoying sex, this is a must-watch conversation!
✨ Segment 3: Happy Endings Q&A
A viewer asks: What is the viability of couples who try swinging or non-monogamy? I share my perspective as a certified sex therapist on what makes these arrangements work—or not—and how couples can decide if it’s right for them.
👉 Don’t miss this episode—it’s packed with practical advice, expert insights, and honest conversations to help you build a stronger, healthier relationship.

Welcome to Open Bedroom Doors: Real Talk for Real Relationships — Episode 11! 💕
In this episode, we dive into three powerful conversations around intimacy, consent, and sexual health:
🔹 Sex Positions Segment:
Pregnancy changes everything—including intimacy. I share practical ways couples can adjust during pregnancy and why teamwork is the key to staying connected, both emotionally and physically.
🔹 Interview with Dr. Betty Martin – Creator of the Wheel of Consent:
I sit down with world-renowned author and educator Betty Martin to explore the Wheel of Consent. We discuss what it truly means to give touch and receive touch with full consent—and how understanding this framework can transform your sex life, relationships, and personal boundaries.
🔹 Happy Endings Segment:
May is Masturbation Month? I answer the question: Why is this celebrated, and what’s the significance? We break down how solo pleasure supports healthy sexuality and reduces shame around self-touch.
✨ Whether you’re navigating pregnancy intimacy, curious about the Wheel of Consent, or just wondering why Masturbation Month matters—this episode has something for you.

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.
