S1E2 - Why Consent Matters (Even in Cuddling)

Welcome to The Open Bedroom Doors Show! -Real Talk for Real Relationships.

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.

Welcome to another eye-opening episode of Open Bedroom Doors—the show where nothing is off-limits and everything is up for honest, sex-positive conversation.

This week, we explore intimacy in all its forms—from the lack of it among Gen Z, to the healing power of cuddle therapy, to navigating mismatched libidos in long-term relationships.

🔹 Segment 1: Sex Positions

We kick things off with our Sex Positions segment—where I explore the intersection of sex, culture, and real-life experiences. This week, we’re asking:

Why aren’t Gen Z dating or having sex?

I break down some of the social, emotional, and digital dynamics contributing to this surprising generational shift.

🔹 Segment 2: Interview with Michelle Renee

Next, I sit down with Michelle Renee, a certified cuddle therapist, to talk about the importance of consensual touch, emotional safety, and how setting boundaries can actually deepen intimacy—not shut it down. This conversation is a must for anyone curious about alternative healing, emotional connection, or reclaiming agency over their own body and comfort.

🔹 Segment 3: Happy Endings

We close with Happy Endings, where I answer one of your real questions about sex and relationships. This week’s question:

“How do we deal with libido differences in a relationship?”

I share insights on how to talk about mismatched desire, manage expectations, and keep the connection alive—without shame, pressure, or resentment.

✨ Whether you're navigating modern love, exploring new kinds of intimacy, or just want to understand yourself better—this episode is for you.
