Same questions, two answers. We talked for months before our first night in the lifestyle. We still weren't ready. Talking about a thing and being ready for it are not the same thing. BEFORE THE DOOR OPENS is the journal we wish we'd had. You each answer the same questions on your own - what you want, what you're nervous about, your rules, check-ins before a night out, the talk on the car ride home, and what to do when a night goes wrong. Then you swap and talk. The gap between your answers isn't a problem. It's the point. THE OPEN BOOK is our story - five years in, told by both of us. The good nights, the hard ones, and the drama nobody warns you about: the kind that happens at home, after. The book is the story. The journal is the tool. New or five years in, it's the same job - keep talking. Free sample - tap the website link on our profile. Both books are on Amazon. Questions? Message us here. We answer everything. Mike & Julie

A great read

Everyone's journey is different but this book really spells out some of the highs and lows of the lifestyle. Communication that must be present throughout, the feelings that arise during play, and the boundaries that must be respected. We really appreciated you both laying out your feelings that arose no matter how painful or uncomfortable they were. We love the lifestyle but it truly isn't always about the play aspect as much as the mindset and the communication it opens up. Thank you so much for writing this. We got the digital copy and the next day bought a physical copy so we could both read it together.

10/10!

I just finished the book, and have not stopped taking about it with my wife for the last couple of days. Congratulations on the wonderful text and on the honest assessment of yourselves and your experiences. To us, readers, it’s been a mix of identifying thoughts and experiences in common, learning about our own mistakes and about things to do (or not to do), and thinking about experiences and places we still want to go through. Thank you for the hours you spent working on this, and for helping all of us learn so much from you.

This one got us. “Still talking about it” is honestly the whole reason we wrote the book. We didn’t want to hand anyone a manual. We wanted to give couples something they could talk about - and maybe argue about a little. The fact that you and your wife recognized things you’d both done, along with things you’d both avoided, is exactly what we hoped might happen, but probably never quite let ourselves expect. Thank you for taking the time to say it publicly. It means more to us than you’d think. Mike & Julie

Very real, but still processing

I started reading this 6 hours ago and just finished it. Holy crap to have all of that on paper. We have had a lot of the same lifestyle experiences and we started in much the same way, although not with 25 years and 2 kids together under our belts. We’re on our second life, trauma and cheating spouses in the past, building our house together late. Just relatable in so many ways that it was hard to put down. We don’t have the control or the jealousy issues on the male side but very similar on the female side. We are just now at the point of not being disappointed when the “fantasy” doesn’t come together as expected. We also appreciate the nights that spontaneity fosters some incredible experiences and savor those all the more. Really enjoyed this read.

Wow - thank you for this. Reading it straight through in six hours may be the best compliment a book can get. Your second-life path into all of this was a harder road than ours, but it sounds like it brought you to a lot of the same places. And you nailed something that took us years to figure out: once you stop grading every night against the fantasy in your head, the spontaneous ones have a way of finding you. Thank you for reading it and taking the time to tell us. This really made our day.
