NAUGHTY GYM SHOW - Building Stronger Non-Monogamous Relationships

In this playful and thought-provoking episode, Scott and April explore one of the most surprising dynamics in the lifestyle: choosing connection over sex. With their friends Dave and Andi, hosts of Tales of The Lastborns, they discuss topics as varied as “blue-ball moments” at full resort takeovers to the deeper reasons why some swingers deliberately opt for fewer play sessions, at least for a season. This conversation is equal parts hilarious and heartfelt.

They share details about upcoming Naughty Gym events (Jamaica takeover, El Salvador retreat, and even a Barcelona adventure) while reflecting on the tension between sexual freedom and the power of saying “not tonight.” This one will make you laugh, think, and maybe rethink what intimacy really means.

• Why connection-first events change the lifestyle experience
• Behind-the-scenes of hosting at Club Pravada Portland

In this powerful episode, April and Scott open up about two months of unexpected personal chaos—and the tools that got them through it. From setting firm family boundaries to rebuilding self-trust after betrayal, they explore how to protect your peace without shutting down or giving up.

April shares the story behind a life-changing letter she wrote to her brothers, the surprising fallout, and why pausing—even in non-monogamy—can be the healthiest move.

They dive into the struggle of being the family fixer, the trap of overgiving, and the question at the heart of it all: Who do you think you aren’t… to deserve peace, trust, and space to be yourself?

You’ll also hear:

• How to nurture yourself when you’re always the nurturer

• Why intuition matters (and how to listen without self-doubt)

• The real impact of setting boundaries in open relationships

• What to do when the people you love disappoint you

Whether you’re juggling relationships, caregiving, or just trying to find your center again—this episode offers raw honesty, laughter, and some hard-earned wisdom.

Can a relationship thrive without rules?

Or does lasting love require some limits?

In this candid and thought-provoking episode, Scott sits down with one of his personal training clients (also named Scott) for a deep dive into one of the most uncomfortable questions in modern relationship philosophy: Are some imposed boundaries necessary to preserve long-term commitment?

Centering mostly around Wild Love Theory’s radical premise—that maximal happiness requires maximal freedom—the conversation challenges traditional ideas about relational doubt, how much freedom is too much and staying together “no matter what.”

Together, they explore:

 • How much relational freedom is optimal

 • If boundary-free love is liberating or potentially reckless

 • How cultural norms about divorce shape our definitions of commitment

 • The emotional trade-offs between safety and sovereignty

 • Why ENM spaces often avoid talking about relational maintenance

Whether you’re in a long-term monogamous marriage or navigating ethical non-monogamy, this episode asks the question most couples never dare say aloud:

Can you be truly free—and still choose to stay?

Why is it so damn hard to know what we really want?

In this vulnerable and unfiltered episode, April and Scott get real about the psychological and emotional roadblocks that make naming our desires feel confusing, overwhelming, and even scary—especially in non-monogamy.

They explore:

• Why childhood and culture train us to want what’s safe—not what’s true

• The difference between relief and real desire

• Why pretending to “want what they want” can quietly destroy you

• How non-monogamy doesn’t make desire clearer—it just makes it louder

• The 3 most common mistakes people make when trying to name what they want

• Practical tools to help you reconnect to your real, wild, messy desires

Plus, they share personal stories, relationship bumps, and how desire work is showing up in their own marriage, right now.

This one’s for anyone who’s ever said, “I don’t know who I am anymore” or “I’m not sure what I want—but I know it’s not this.”

What if menopause wasn’t something to dread, but a wake-up call, a shift, a powerful evolution?

In this raw and empowering episode, April is joined by her friend and retreat co-host Catherine from Expansive Connection Coaching to break down the messy, misunderstood truth about menopause. They get honest about perimenopause, HRT, sex, sleep, relationships, brain fog, identity, body image, and why so many women feel like they’re losing their minds, or burning their lives down.

But this conversation isn’t just for women. If you’re a partner, a son, a friend, this episode matters to you too. Because understanding menopause means understanding the people you love.

Expect laughter, vulnerability, hard truths, and plenty of F-bombs (the literal and metaphorical kind). Plus, learn more about their Wild & Wise Women’s Menopause Retreat, a space for education, connection, and maybe even a few healing flames.

And remember, to Never Stop Playing!

In this powerful Pride Month episode of The Naughty Gym Show, we sit down with advocate and fitness coach Cara Turnquist to tackle one of the fitness industry’s lingering blind spots: true inclusivity for LGBTQ+ individuals.

👉 Why do so many gyms remain unwelcoming—even if they don’t explicitly exclude?

👉 What are the invisible barriers LGBTQ+ folks face just walking into a fitness space?

👉 And why do those of us with privilege have a moral responsibility to fight for change?

Cara shares the origin of her groundbreaking Lift Up program (a safe, empowering gym experience for LGBTQ+ members), personal stories of navigating fatphobia and exclusion, and why representation, small language shifts, and fearless advocacy matter more than ever.

We also unpack:

✅ How gym owners & fitness professionals can make spaces truly inclusive

✅ Why locker rooms and bathrooms are still battlegrounds

✅ How allies can stop sitting quietly on the sidelines

✅ The myth of “neutrality” in today’s climate

✅ Actionable steps for building community and saving lives through fitness

This isn’t just about rainbows on the wall. It’s about creating spaces where everyone feels safe, seen, and free to take up space.

If you’re a gym owner, a coach, a fitness lover—or simply someone who gives a damn about making the world better—this episode is a must-listen. 🎧
