S1E3 - Empowering Women Through Boudoir Photography

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 Episode 3 of Open Bedroom Doors—where we explore sex, intimacy, and emotional well-being with curiosity, humor, and zero shame.

🔹 Segment 1: Sex Positions
We kick things off with Sex Positions, our culture + sex health spotlight. This week’s topic: the surprising connection between Vitamin D deficiency and erectile dysfunction. We break down the science, what it means for your sexual health, and how small changes in lifestyle can have a big impact in the bedroom.

🔹 Segment 2: Interview with Shane Michael
Then I sit down with Shane Michael, a passionate boudoir photographer who shares how this form of intimate art empowers women to reclaim their confidence, embrace their bodies, and feel sexy—on their own terms. We talk body image, self-love, and how being seen in front of the lens can transform how you see yourself.

🔹 Segment 3: Happy Endings
We wrap it all up with Happy Endings, where I answer a listener’s real-life relationship question:
“Why do we keep fighting about the same things over and over again?”
I dig into emotional patterns, unspoken needs, and how to shift repetitive conflict into connection.

💫 This episode blends sexual health, emotional empowerment, and relationship wisdom in a way that’s open, real, and totally relatable. Join the conversation—you belong here.
