Introducing the debut of my new weekly web show, The Open Bedroom Doors Show!
Tune in every Thursday night at 9 PM CST for a fun look into the world of sex and sexual health presented by me, Angela Skurtu, a Licensed Marriage and Certified Sex Therapist.
This week, we have Diane McCain, a sex enthusiast, and Graduate of Orgasm University.
We're not sure if that's an actual University.
On this week's episode, we talk about keeping sex fun as you age. Everyone ages. It's true. But when you can stay open minded about sex, you can still enjoy sex. The problem is that people don't always know how to slow down, get creative, and work with the bodies they have. We dive into creative sexuality and keeping sex fun even with aging bodies.
In this episode we also dive into 'Sex Positions' a weekly segment where Angela judges things happening in the media.
Each week, we end the show with a listener question. If you have questions you would like her to answer on a future show, please post your questions in the comments below.
Thanks for joining us! I’m Angela Skurtu and I open bedroom doors! I work with couples that are best friends who have "friend zoned" each other. We've all been guilty of putting work and kids first. You lose track of each other and forget to go on dates or spend time alone. After a while, you realize you haven't been on a date since the pandemic or longer!
Tired of routine s3x? Feeling more like roommates than lovers? Wondering where the passion went - or if it was ever really there? You are not alone and you don’t have to settle for a s3x life that is just meh. I help couples reignite passion for each other and for life and normalize conversation about s3x. I am invested in your whole relationship - body, mind, and spirit. In order to want to have s3x, you have to create that emotional connection again. You have to learn to play and have fun together. You have to learn to live a fuller life!
S3x is not a dirty word. It's an important part of a healthy relationship. Your whole body is capable of giving and receiving pleasure. Yet, so many of my clients are having mediocre s3x and mediocre life experiences. There's more to life than work and kids. There's way more to experience in this world. Don't you want more?
You can purchase my book, “From F*ck No to F*ck Yes S3x!” on amazon by following this link:
