💬 About This Episode – QUICKIE: Having The Talk

How do you bring up ethical non-monogamy with your partner without it blowing up in your face? In this Lifestyle 101 Wednesday QUICKIE, Adam & Pris keep it raw, funny, and real while breaking down the most important first step in the swinger lifestyle: having “the talk.”

From their own messy beginnings to the lessons they’ve learned after years together, they cover everything you need to know about starting this conversation in a healthy, respectful, and loving way.

🎙️ What You’ll Learn in This Episode

Why timing and setting matter when asking about open relationships

How to use a preamble to ease your partner into the conversation

The importance of reassurance and words of affirmation in non-monogamy

Common mistakes newbies make (alcohol, ultimatums, rushing in)

Why boundaries, rules, and safe words are essential for couples

How to practice consent with partners and with each other

Why this talk isn’t one-and-done but an ongoing conversation

Adam & Pris don’t hold back on the tough stuff: jealousy, insecurities, “thirsty newbies,” and the reality that ethical non-monogamy only works if both partners are genuinely on board.
