In this episode, we’re diving deep into what it means to be openly bisexual in swinger and ethically non-monogamous (ENM) spaces, and why it’s time to break the stigma, especially around male bisexuality. As a bisexual married couple, we’re often assumed to be straight. But bisexuality doesn’t disappear just because you’re in a “hetero-presenting” relationship. We’re sharing our personal experiences, the double standards we’ve faced, and how we’ve learned to show up more unapologetically in the lifestyle. We’ll also explore: • Why male bisexuality is still taboo in many swinger spaces • How female bisexuality often gets fetishized instead of validated • How to start exploring your own bisexuality, whether you’re male, female, partnered, or solo • What real allyship looks like in non-monogamous communities Whether you’re bi, questioning, or just want to be a better ally, this episode is for you. 🏳️🌈 You deserve to be seen.

This episode is unlike any we’ve ever recorded.For the first time, April opens up about some of the deepest wounds from her past—stories she’s rarely shared in public. Like so many women, she endured sexual abuse as a young girl, a trauma that shaped her journey but never defined her. Through years of personal work, she’s fought to reclaim her power, her body, and her voice—emerging as the strong, fearless woman she is today.But healing is a process, not a destination.For the past 10 years, we’ve navigated non-monogamy together, dismantling the belief systems we inherited and embracing the expansive, limitless potential of love. We’ve taken our time, been intentional, and built something beautiful.And yet—April recently discovered an entirely new level of healing through Wild Love Theory.In this episode, she shares how embracing Wild Love Theory has allowed her to shed some of the final remnants of the pain that trauma left behind. It’s a raw, emotional, and deeply personal conversation about breaking free, finding strength, and learning to love without fear.This wasn’t an easy episode to record. Vulnerability is scary. But April holds nothing back, offering her story to anyone who has ever struggled with past wounds, control, or fear in their relationships.If you’ve ever felt trapped by the past, if you’ve ever questioned the limits imposed on love, or if you simply want to hear a story of true resilience and transformation, this episode is for you.💜 Listen now. This one will stay with you. 💜
