Episode Description

2025 was a LOT… and we’re ending the year with one of the biggest growth moments in our relationship.

In this episode of The Naughty Gym Show, we tell the full story of April’s first real autonomous solo date—the nerves, the ugly Christmas sweater plan, the chemistry, the decision-making in the moment, and what it was like for Scott to sit at home and feel the “flutter” (aka jealousy/activation)… without making it her responsibility.

We also break down the real stuff people avoid talking about in ethical non-monogamy:

  • What compersion actually feels like (not the internet version)
  • How jealousy shows up even when you’re secure
  • Autonomy vs. caretaking (and how to stop people-pleasing)
  • Debriefing after a big night: what helped, what didn’t, and what we learned

And yes… Scott shares the sleep-aid + vodka + couch disaster that happened DAYS before the date. 😬
