Ashleigh Renard is the author of “Swing”, creator of the viral video series, “How to Keep Monogamy Hot”, and host of Keeping It Hot, a podcast that helps you improve your communication in and out of the bedroom. Ashleigh joins Ruben for an insightful discussion about how to foster communication and cooperation in your marriage and family. She talks about how spicing up your marriage is taboo, but not in the way you'd think, and the lessons she's learned about love from failing at the swinger lifestyle. “We weren't really looking to open up our marriage, what we were looking for was just a break from the mundane.” –Ashleigh Renard According to Ashleigh, the grass is greener where you water it. Marriage doesn't have to be a power play, it can be a ‘win-win'. Everyone comes into marriage with their own story and agenda. We're going to see each other's ugly sides, brilliant sides, and everything in between… and we have to embrace all of it. No matter how messy your marriage gets or how many mistakes you've made, you can come back from anything – as an individual and as a couple. Shine light on your partner's strengths, as well as your children's strengths, and see what grows from that light. This is what love is made of. “That's the thing I'm telling married people every day is, our job in marriage is to help your partner be and feel their very best.” –Ashleigh Renard SUBSCRIBE to Live Through Love so you never miss an episode & RATE/REVIEW it on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.

Today's highly requested guest, Swing author Ashleigh Renard, chats all about monogamy, non-monogamy, swinging, and self-love. Ashleigh talks about why she wanted to try non-monogamy, and what that looked like for her and her husband. She found herself falling in love with another man, and was heartbroken when she noticed her husband didn't seem to mind. Ashleigh explains how she needed more love than she was willing to admit, and how she found that ultimately, what she needed was that love from herself. This realization ultimately transformed her life, re-connecting her with her husband, and feeling so full of joy in a way she didn't know was possible. Ashleigh also shares the concerns her husband had with people learning their story, and how finding ways to communicate in places other than just the bedroom got them to where they are now. If swinging isn't for you, that's totally fine; you can keep monogamy f%cking hot and have a relationship, and a life, that turns you on and lights you up.

“I really think that none of us has to be as scared of ourselves as we are. We don't have to be worried that we're going to turn into monsters.” ~ Ashleigh Renard Are you married or in a long-term relationship? Have you ever thought about what life would be like if you weren't in that relationship? If we're honest, most of us have had moments where we fantasize about being free of obligations–and sometimes, that even means a marriage. But rather than examine why we're feeling that way, we shame ourselves into acting like everything is okay, even when it isn't. Ashleigh Renard, this week's guest on the Brilliantly Resilient podcast, notes that feeling like something is missing doesn't make us awful people. In fact, we're obligated to pause and consider what we want, what's working and what isn't–for everyone's sake. When we're honest, we can fix things, not just so they're better, but great. Through her book Swing and her Keeping It Hot viral video series, Ashleigh offers tips and strategies about how to stay connected, renegotiate marriage and most importantly, keep monogamy hot! (Whhaaattt???!!!) Hilarious and heartfelt, Ashleigh is full of wit and wisdom and urges us to ditch the martyr-mom (twin sister of the supermom), and pay attention to ourselves. (She took her first step to personally do so by promising to heed her body and go to the bathroom when she needed to. Any other women out there holding it until you're ready to burst because someone needs something from you? Raise your hands, ladies!) Hear more from Ashleigh on this week's episode of the Brilliantly Resilient podcast and be sure to listen for these additional bits of Brilliance: We take action on autopilot because we don't have to make decisions. It feels safer; you don't want to rock the boat. So often we push away from each other because we are pushing away from ourselves. Have radical compassion for yourself. Maybe there is no bad guy here. The only way to move is to be on your path and say, ‘I'd like you to join me.' But we can't go back and try to pull them along. So often we push away from each other because we are pushing away from ourselves. Ashleigh Renard (https://ashleighrenard.com/) Let's be Brilliantly Resilient together! Kristin and Mary Fran

Ashleigh Renard Asheigh Renard and I are in a mastermind together and let me tell you, this girl is on fire!!! This episode contains adult themes and adult language. A former figure skating coach and choreographer, Ashleigh took the quest for perfection into marriage and motherhood, with some disastrous and hilarious results. Through her books and her viral Keeping it Hot video series, she's built a committed mass-following who tune in daily for her fresh, no-fuss advice on everything from keeping monogamy hot, to renegotiating a marriage, to getting kids to clean the house (because nothing makes her prouder than child labor). Here are the takeaways It is not necessary to fuel someone's excitement. Just be willing to witness it. Being spiritual doesn't mean you have to lose your personality. The more spiritual you become, the more you peel back the layers of who you are. "Performing" a relationship is like building a sand castle too close to the water. It becomes a full time job. Give yourself what you need. Consider writing love letters to yourself saying what you most need to hear. Hot sex is really about feelings. It's the bi-product of healthy communication and vulnerability. Your body can't trust you with more than you can be trusted with. To start, use the bathroom when you have to go.

Do you identify as a perfectionist? When you're living a life that has to be perfect, you are welcoming throngs of judgment into your life. Your thoughts about yourself, and therefore your thoughts about your loved ones, your friends, your colleagues, that dude who takes your coffee order – it's all constantly living under the radar of your own spectacular judgmental laser eyes.In this bonus episode, I share some personal experiences and learnings from my own journey as a recovering perfectionist and judgment Queen (with a capital Q) and my realization of how that lifestyle doesn't allow you to truly be yourself. When you let that perfect image of yourself go, all those layers of judgment fall away, and you not only get to be you, but you get to create from the most glorious and divine space. And allow others to do the same.

Now she offers support and encouragement to millions of couples every week through her lifestyle blog and coaching practice. She also co-hosts a podcast for content creators looking to grow their platform. She's here with us today to discuss her newest book, Keeping it Hot: The Workbook. In this episode, Mike and Ashleigh discuss: The motivation behind writing Keeping it Hot, the Workbook The role uncovering your own needs plays in building intimacy How intimacy outside the bedroom can lead to intimacy inside the bedroom How to speak openly and honestly about your needs Key Takeaways: Bringing the spark back to the relationship should be fun, not a fight. Self-awareness, or knowing what you want from yourself and a partner, is crucial in every relationship. The first step to finding out what you want is to allow yourself to listen to your inner voice and then practice self-care. There's nothing wrong with discussing your sexual desires with your partner. You can't expect them to know what you want unless you tell them. Sharing your true feelings gives them permission to do the same. Being a parent doesn't mean you can't have intimate time with your partner or yourself. Planning is everything—take the time to continually invest in your relationship and your kids will grow up with a better understanding of romantic love. "Both people in the partnership need time to themselves. They need time to be in their body, they need time to laugh with friends, they need time to really do the things that they love. They need some time for that or else they're not going to have any empathy for the other person who also needs something." – Ashleigh Renard Buy Keeping it Hot: The Workbook Amazon: https://amzn.to/3zZmY2B Bookshop.org: https://bookshop.org/a/54587/9781736596807 Connect with Ashleigh Website: https://ashleighrenard.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ashleighrenard/ Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ashleighrenard Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ashleigh.renard/ Email: ashleighrenard@gmail.com Connect with Mike Carlon: Website: https://uncorkingastory.com/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSvS4fuG3L1JMZeOyHvfk_g Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uncorkingastory/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/uncorkingastory Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/uncorkingastory LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/uncorking-a-story/ Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Ashleigh wrote “Swing” because it was her deepest, darkest secret. She thought that there wouldn't be anybody in the world that could relate to what she experienced, so she wrote about about it to tell everybody. She thought, “Now I'm going to make this into art to share it.” An artist understands that every person will experience art in a different way, and that's ok.“Swing” is a book about the story of her and her husband getting into an exclusive sex club in New York City and the things that happen at the club. The book is meant to be a “bait and switch” though, because according to Ashleigh, the book is actually about “how easy it is to lose yourself in the roles that you think you should be playing for other people,” not about sex clubs.She coached figure skating, 150 skaters on 10 teams. In a decade, she realized that she had been showing up for everybody else, but not for herself. Her marriage was imploding. She realized that she didn't have a firm foundation anywhere in her life like she thought she had. All of us are looking to feel “filled up.” Most of us have one or two ways of feeling filled up that aren't good for us. Ashleigh found out that getting attention from other men was one of those things that made her feel good. She got the attention and affection that she desired in her own marriage through other men that she interacted with at these clubs. Growing up, she was the child who “never needed anything.” She simply reached for another accomplishment.There are so many men who have connected with Ashleigh and to how she feels in the book. Some people may assume it to be a creepy thing, but it ends up being the complete opposite. Men describe her as being like a big sister. The way she describes things in the book are “you and your partner,” so there's a universal aspect to it. People just want to talk to her about their feelings, men included.Where do we get our information? Our parents don't typically talk about sex in front of us, or finances, or any of the other things that cause us problems as adults.Hot sex is a side effect of a healthy relationship. When we turn the iceberg on it's side, though, it's a way to get all of our communications and connections to be better. The book actually started as a screenplay, but she couldn't finish it. She got about halfway through and realized that people would find comfort in knowing the story actually happened after posting some things on social media and getting some positive feedback. If we want to get to the place of radical connection, we have to go through the valley of honesty. She thought that the only thing that was ever good enough was something that was flawless. Anything less needed to be glossed over. “Good or better” was the only way to succeed. If you've had any kind of fracture in your relationship and you decide to stay together and work through it, on the other side of the fracture is a freedom to not be afraid of being imperfect anymore.Peeing can teach us something about how we should treat ourselves. For Ashleigh, she realized that she needed to simply pee whenever she had the urge. If she couldn't go, “Ashleigh needs to pee,” or “Ashleigh is hungry or tired,” she couldn't be trusted to make the good decisions about the other cues that her body is telling herself. How do we know what we like sexually if we don't even listen to our bodies for the simple things?Ashleigh's book “Swing” is available anywhere books are sold.

INTRODUCTION Are you someone who has a hard time putting themselves first? Do you have a hard time vocalizing what your needs are? Many of us who answer yes to both of these questions often struggle with our interpersonal relationships, especially romantic ones. We do things for other people while ignoring or not even realizing what it is we really want. This can lead to resentment, frustration, and feeling like our needs don't matter. Oftentimes, this is something we learned in childhood when high expectations are thrust upon us, and we don't realize the wounds that cause until later in life when we can process it with more fully formed minds. Ashleigh Renard knows what I mean all too well. She spent her childhood, and a good part of her young adult life, on the ice. She skated through injury and pain because she felt she needed to be perfect. During this time in her life, she was rewarded for suppressing her needs and living for others. However, this came to haunt her in adulthood when her marriage nearly fell apart. She worked her way through it, though, in a way that many of us might find unconventional—by opening up her marriage. After doing so, she realized what she needed in life and found the strength and courage to admit it to her husband—and now their marriage has never been stronger. Listen in to hear her talk about that, and so much more! MEET ASHLEIGH RENARD As a figure skating coach and choreographer, Ashleigh Renard spent two decades building trust and fostering teamwork, growing her synchronized skating organization to one of the biggest in the world. Now she offers support and encouragement to millions of couples every week through her lifestyle blog and coaching practice. She also co-hosts a podcast for content creators looking to grow their platform. Her memoir, Swing: A Memoir of Doing it all, has been called the sexiest, funniest, most deeply felt memoir you will read this year. I've read it and completely agree! KEY TOPICS COVERED Ashleigh's background as a figure skater and coach How putting her needs last impacted her relationship with her husband Her motivation for writing Swing and the risks she took opening up about her personal life throughout the book The importance of prioritizing ourselves, understanding and voicing our needs The secret to building a platform for content creators How her advice blog is impact relationships and marriages in a positive way KEY TAKEAWAYS Find your voice. While many of us have been rewarded for putting ourselves last, it is important to remember that we are human, we have needs, and we need to express them. No one will just know them without us speaking up. It's not too late. If your personal relationship is on the rocks, it's never too late to turn things around. Communication is key! Monogamy isn't for everyone. Sometimes opening up a marriage can lead to increased communication and stronger feelings of trust and love. Get Physical. Physical intimacy is a natural and healthy extension of a relationship. Our best sexual intentions are often put to rest, however, as we collapse into an exhausted heap at the end of the day. Instead, you and your partner need to consciously commit to turning up the heat. Be Vulnerable. Sometimes you must dig deep and become vulnerable. Couples may find it surprising, but if each one becomes curious about one's own blind spots, discovers them, and then is courageous enough to share that vulnerability, it can help create deeper intimacy. MEMORABLE ADVICE “Give yourself permission to do something physical, get in your body, do something that's that lights you up, whether that's painting, taking a ceramics class or taking the dog for a hike. Those are the things that I think are going to help you connect with your partner physically.” WHERE TO BUY SWING Amazon Bookshop.org GET IN TOUCH https://ashleighrenard.com/links If you liked this conversation, please tell a friend about it as well as like, rate, and review Uncorking a Story wherever you get your podcasts.

I sit down with author Ashleigh Renard who wrote Swing, which is coming out May 25th. This book is a bit of EVERYTHING. Starts off with sex club scenes as she tries to spice up her marriage and leads you through a journey of motherhood, home schooling, career changes, frustrations, perfectionism, a failed swinging experience and finding yourself somewhere in the middle. It is funny, exhilarating, thoughtful, honest and makes you feel hopeful about what is to come. We chat about perfectionism, marriage, how she wrote her book, the reactions by her family, learning to market yourself and even tap into the "momfluencer" debate and all about Rachel Hollis.

Ashleigh Renard was raised in figure skating and took the quest for perfectionism into marriage and motherhood. Through her candid presence on social media she has invited her audience to walk alongside her as she transformed from Martyrmom to Selfish Mom (and realized that it certainly was her self-sacrifice that was keeping her family miserable), building a committed mass-following who tune in daily for her fresh, no-fuss advice on everything from keeping monogamy hot, to renegotiating a marriage, to getting kids to clean the house (because nothing makes her prouder than child labor). With savvy and plenty of humor, her down-to-earth voice tackles topics that are relatable to anyone struggling with the awkwardness of living in a meat suit at Earth School. She resides in Bucks County, Pennsylvania with her husband, their three children, a cat, and a dog. As a child she thought Pennsylvania the most unfortunately named state, too similar to Transylvania. To her delight, it has ample sunlight and a remarkably low population of vampires.Listen in to hear a real, honest conversation about; - Unrealistic expectations of perfectionism- Depending on others- Rehabbing a shabby marriage- Intimacy & Marriage- Communication- Motherhood- Putting yourself first Laugh with her on Instagram @ashleighrenard.Share the episode and include #thejessicahaizmanpodcastwww.jessicahaizman.com/podcast
