01 Nov 2025
Chapter 1: What motivated Ariana Throne to become a therapist?
Sexuality could kill you. Before we had modern medicine and could protect against STD, it was the way a lot of people were dying. Polyamory says, well, biologically we're attracted to more than one person. It's not really a lifestyle for those for the faint of heart.
Chapter 2: What is ethical non-monogamy and how is it different from cheating?
We still live in a world that's very overshadowed by religion, and religion kind of demonized sexuality.
Right. Okay, guys, we got Ariana on here today, a therapist that lives in Las Vegas.
Chapter 3: What are the keys to successful non-monogamous relationships?
Thanks for joining us. Nice outfit.
Chapter 4: Why is comprehensive sex education important?
Thank you. Thanks so much.
Matching the color of the show.
Yeah, I went on Color Scheme. I didn't even know you had this blue going.
Yeah, and the earrings. Nice.
Chapter 5: How does pornography relate to erectile dysfunction?
Do what I can for the community.
Yeah, well, let's talk therapy because I just started going to a therapist last week.
Oh, good.
How's it going? Well, one session in.
Chapter 6: What are the challenges of navigating dating apps today?
It was like an intro session, but I'm going to give it a fair chance because there's a lot of negative stigma around therapy. For sure. Especially as a guy.
Yeah. Yeah.
I want to give it a fair shot. Like me even saying that, like some guys would bully me over that. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Chapter 7: How does parenthood impact sexual desire in relationships?
And it takes a while to find the right one. Sometimes it's not a good fit and you have to try out quite a few people. Right. Unfortunately, like any field, there's a lot of bad therapists out there. There's good ones. There's bad ones. And then there's ones that just aren't quite right for you.
Chapter 8: Can a non-monogamous lifestyle work for families with children?
So you've got to kind of shop around.
Yeah, this is my second one. I tried one in high school. It was a guy, had like an Ivy League degree, and he was just too smart for me, I think.
So you want a dumb it down therapist. Just like walk me through it slowly.
Not smart. You know, he was too smart, like too logical.
Intimidating.
I want that female touch, you know. So now I have a female and I'm going to give it, you know, five, ten sessions, try it out.
Okay, awesome.
I'm going to be as open as I can.
I love that.
