    The Naked Truth About Happily Ever After: Getting to Know Each Other in the Deep End

    Send us a text In this mini episode of Let’s Get Naked, Anne sits down with her husband, Cameron, for The Naked Truth About Happily Ever After Getting to Know Each Other in the Deep End—a candid conversation about why lasting love can’t survive in the “kiddie pool” of surface-level connection. Anne challenges couples to stop performing, stop numbing out, and start building real intimacy in the “deep end”: the honest, vulnerable space where you talk about what actually shaped your day, what triggered you, what you desire, and what you’re afraid to say out loud. Cameron expands on what the deep end truly means—sharing the thoughts, needs, fantasies, fears, and private truths most people avoid in public—but that strong partnerships must learn to hold with care. Together, they break down a practical relationship shift that helped them rebuild trust: ground rules for hard conversations, including the discipline of assuming your partner is coming from a good place, slowing down reactive patterns, and asking better questions before defensiveness takes over. The takeaway is direct: real “ride-or-die” connection is made in the trenches—through intentional communication, emotional safety, and the courage to be fully seen.

    The Psychology Behind Our Pain, Patterns, and Healing With Chad Scott

    Send us a text In this powerful conversation, Anne sits down with Chad Scott to explore the raw intersections of anxiety, emotional intelligence, drinking culture, and the unexpected healing power of dark tourism. Chad opens up about his lifelong struggle with anxiety, how society normalizes alcohol as a coping mechanism, and what happened when he finally confronted the truth about his habits. He breaks down why dark tourism activates a different part of the brain, how it helped him process his own internal darkness, and why facing human suffering can expand empathy in a way nothing else can. From IQ vs. EQ to the difference between empathy and sympathy, from being blessed by the Pope to ultimately leaving Catholicism, this episode uncovers how spirituality, trauma, and emotional awareness shape who we become and how we show up in the world.  Chad Scott, Ph.D. is critically acclaimed author, seasoned explorer, and licensed psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience in mental health. He has extensively taught university level psychology and criminal justice courses, published three books, and captivated audiences at conferences and seminars.  Drawing on his own challenges, including illness, a transplant, divorce, and anxiety, Dr. Scott writes with a hard-earned grit, offering profound insights on resilience and growth. Specializing in transformative travel, he explores dark tourism sites like Hiroshima and Alcatraz to uncover lessons on healing, human strength, and personal transformation. He lives for adventure and cherishes time with his loyal Boston Terrier, Duke. http://DrChadScott.com https://m.facebook.com/chadscottauthor/ This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma.

    The Naked Truth About Happily Ever After: Discipline Equals Self Love

    Send us a text In this Let’s Get Naked mini episode, Anne and Cameron break down a truth most people miss: discipline isn’t punishment—it’s SELF-LOVE. When you keep saying yes while running on fumes, you don’t become “selfless”… you become depleted, resentful, and emotionally unavailable. They unpack why burnout isn’t noble, why “martyrdom” kills connection, and how putting yourself first is the foundation of healthy relationships. The takeaway is simple: put your oxygen mask on first. Build disciplined habits, set clear boundaries, and stop calling doom-scrolling “self-care.” When your cup is full, you show up with more patience, stability, and real presence—for everyone. This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma.

    Beautiful Chaos, Brutal Honesty: A Family Christmas You Can’t Script With Kaitlyn Westendorf, Deidra Christensen, and Amy Knudsen

    Send us a text In this Christmas edition, Anne is joined by family—her cousins (Amy Knudsen and Deidra Christensen) and her sister-in-law, Kaitlyn Westendorf (the self-appointed “Barbara Walters”) to unpack the messy, hilarious, and unexpectedly tender reality of childhood memories, birth order, and generational norms. Between “feral ambition,” chaotic holiday stories, and the sharp moment of realizing “is that not normal?”, the conversation moves from laughter to lived truth: disappointment, scarcity, the phrases that stick with you, and how those experiences shape parenting, identity, and what the holidays mean now. Expect unfiltered stories (including the infamous “Bruce” moment and smoking-era norms), hard-hitting perspective shifts, and a genuine reminder to stop performing Christmas out of obligation and start choosing what actually creates connection—memories, honesty, and a holiday season that doesn’t cost your peace. Kaitlyn Westendorf is the first of three girls born to her parents that spent the entirety of her childhood working multiple jobs to support her family's agricultural retail business while demonstrating unparalleled work ethic and the importance of family. She is a first-generation college graduate, with a Bachelor's Degree in Marketing. After watching her parents' hard work come to fruition with the business turning the corner to success, Kaitlyn planned to enter sales that involved agriculture. Life had different plans for Kaitlyn and she ended up being wooed into Aviation. Kaitlyn spent the last 20 years working with Colorado Airports for the state's Aeronautics Division. Kaitlyn married her high school sweetheart after graduating from college and they've been blessed with four amazing children and a friend group that is unmatched. Kaitlyn enjoys playing and watching sports, especially if her kids or nieces and nephews are playing. Some may say she has a card addiction, but it could be worse. Kaitlyn works hard and plays hard and she is extremely luck to have a life partner that feels the same. Kaitlyn is involved in her community in a multitude of ways and enjoy how it feels to "give back".  Deidra Christensen is a Colorado native, married for 27 years to my college sweetheart, Jack. We have two grown kids, Hannah and Hunter, and a wonderful son-in-law, Seth. I’ve been a licensed real estate agent for over 22 years, mentoring new agents and teaching real estate education. I’m a problem solver, a connector, and a lover of sourdough baking. Acts of service are my love language—I find joy in cooking for others. After our daughter’s recent wedding, I’m even considering investing in a wedding venue! This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma.

    The Naked Truth about Happily Ever After: Sucking Dick - Literally & Figuratively

    Send us a text This mini-episode of Let’s Get Naked gets brutally honest about what “real intimacy” actually looks like when you’ve been together long enough to hit ruts, resentments, and seasons where desire fades. Anne and Cameron use “glazing” as both a playful and direct lens for relationship health, arguing that attraction and connection are not optional if you want a marriage that’s alive, not just functioning. They unpack why many couples slip into a roommate dynamic, how avoidance turns into emotional dishonesty, and why the real turning point starts with savage self-awareness: owning your part, naming what feels broken, and deciding whether you want to fix it. The conversation challenges listeners to stop repeating the same disconnected day on loop, lean into uncomfortable truth, and have the vulnerable conversations that are often more intimate than sex, because they require fearlessness, accountability, and a plan to rebuild closeness from the ground up. This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma.

    Letting Go Of Implied Expectations With Kaitlyn Westendorf

    Send us a text Letting go of implied expectations is one of the hardest—and most liberating—skills we can learn. In this conversation with Kaitlyn Westendorf, Anne explores the unspoken pressures we inherit, the ones we place on ourselves, and the ones we unknowingly hand off to our partners and children. Kaitlyn reflects on the example set by her mother, the contrast between her father and her husband, and the subtle ways we look for someone to blame when the real conflict is internal. Together, they unpack the cost of saying “yes” to everyone else, the importance of letting your kids make mistakes, and the reality that we often create our own suffering through expectations no one explicitly asked of us. We dive into generational work ethic, parenting adjustments, relationship standards, emotional boundaries, staying in marriages “for the kids,” and the difficult discipline of letting children experience their own skinned knees. It’s a grounded, honest look at what it means to break generational patterns, plant new seeds, and give yourself permission to live by your own standard. If you’ve ever felt weighed down by invisible expectations—or unsure how to stop carrying burdens that were never yours—this episode offers clarity, compassion, and practical wisdom. Kaitlyn Westendorf is the first of three girls born to her parents that spent the entirety of her childhood working multiple jobs to support her family's agricultural retail business while demonstrating unparalleled work ethic and the importance of family.

    The Naked Truth About Happily Ever After: How To Unfuck Your Marriage

    Send us a text This mini episode of Let’s Get Naked dives into The Naked Truth About Happily Ever After, confronting what it really takes to unfuck a marriage that feels too far gone. Anne and Cameron break down the turning points in their own relationship to show listeners that most marriages don’t fall apart overnight; they erode through avoidance, fear, emotional laziness, and unspoken resentment. Healing begins with two willing partners, radical honesty, and the courage to own your part in the breakdown instead of tallying blame. They explore how fear prevents real vulnerability, how speaking your truth even when your voice shakes becomes a catalyst for reconnection, and why staying “for the kids” models the wrong version of love for the next generation. This episode reframes marriage repair as a combination of brutal accountability, mutual investment, and the daily choice to rebuild something better than the highlight reel of the past. If both partners want it, a relationship can evolve into something deeper, truer, and more fulfilling than before. This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma.

    How Vengeance Hijacks Your Life (And How to Take It Back) With Cameron Karber

    Send us a text What does vengeance really cost—and who does it actually destroy? In this episode, Cameron Karber opens up about the darkest corners of his past: intrusive thoughts, rage, fantasies of revenge, the legacy of a narcissistic parent, and the moment he finally understood what forgiveness requires. This conversation exposes how vengeance hides behind more than violent fantasies—it shows up in the way we think, the way we cope, and the way we repeat generational patterns without realizing it. Cameron breaks down the emotional spiral of wanting retribution, the psychological toll of carrying that weight, and the painful realization that revenge is like “drinking poison and waiting for someone else to die.” Through personal stories, raw confessions, and hard-earned insight, the episode explores how anger becomes identity, how triggers become teachers, and why choosing peace feels impossible until you decide to stop recreating the past. If you’ve ever held onto anger, wrestled with intrusive thoughts, or struggled to break free from generational trauma, this episode will challenge your beliefs and bring clarity to the real path toward healing. Cameron Karber is an Arizona native and passionate entrepreneur with a lifelong love for competitive angling. https://www.instagram.com/karberfishing/ https://www.facebook.com/p/Karber-Fishing-61554201821670/ http://www.karberfishing.com This podcast dives deep into real, raw topics—think vulnerability, triggers, and childhood trauma.
