Welcome back to The Unmasked Project!This week, we left a play party… to crash a gym crew happy hour. Yep, it was that kind of night.

In this cheeky yet vulnerable episode, Layla and Brian unpack everything from flirty gym crushes to emotionally confusing “friendships” that only show up when someone’s single. We’re talking about hot bodies, hotter boundaries, and the real communication gaps hiding in open relationships.

From sweaty workouts to sweaty situationships, we explore what happens when fitness motivation meets lifestyle temptation. Is it ever safe to hook up within your gym crew? Why do some “friends” vanish into monogamy and pop back up like clockwork? And most importantly—are you washing yourself correctly?

Whether you’re navigating modern love, trying to avoid cheating tales, or just here for the real talk, this one’s packed with humor, heart, and a little sweat.

💥 In this episode:

• Leaving a play party for a gym crush

• Flirty friends, emotional boundaries & communication skills

• When “he’s just a friend” hits different in an open marriage

• Why your gym might be the new lifestyle hotspot

• Confessions about hygiene, hand towels, and honesty

• The power of couples therapy (and group chats)

🎧 Whether you're on a fitness journey, a wellness journey, or just trying to find your people, this episode serves gym motivation and romantic insights.

We’re sweaty, unfiltered, and still your favorite unmasked crew.
