Inside the Mind of Adam: Love, Chaos & Building a Beyond-Monogamy Marriage
Episode Type: QUICKIE
Show: Beyond Monogamy with Adam & Pris
What keeps a man grounded when life, love, and the lifestyle all collide? In this fun, raw, and real QUICKIE, Pris flips the mic on her husband and co-host, Adam, to dig deep into how he balances it all: a fiery wife, a busy podcast, family life, and the ups and downs of non-monogamy.
From jealousy and communication struggles to menopause, ADHD, finances, and the messy moments in marriage, Adam gets vulnerable about what it really takes to stay connected, keep the peace, and grow stronger together. If you've ever wondered what makes a relationship survive the chaos of real life and the lifestyle, this one's for you.
They talk teamwork, love languages, reconnection rituals, emotional self-awareness, and why "meet in the middle" might be the ultimate relationship cheat code. You'll laugh, relate, and maybe even tear up as Adam shares the heart behind the brand — and why this podcast is so much more than stories and sex talk.
☕ Grab your coffee, your partner, or your favorite toy — this episode is real-life love in the raw.
In This Episode
- How Adam stays balanced through love, chaos, and menopause
- The truth about communication and emotional reconnection in long-term relationships
- Jealousy vs. security in non-monogamy and the lifestyle
- How teamwork and "meeting in the middle" matter more than chemistry alone
- Reconnecting after lifestyle events: coffee, food, and real conversations

- How Beyond Monogamy became a growing community for couples and the curious
- Adam's passion for turning this podcast into a lifelong mission for both of them
Top Takeaways
- Communication beats competition. If you're trying to "win" an argument, you both lose.
- Meet in the middle. Love isn't always 50/50 — it's about showing up as a team.
- Hormones are real. Menopause, cycles, mental health and hormones affect communication and reactions for both partners.
- Appreciation matters. Small acts of service, physical affection, and words of gratitude stack up over time.
- Reconnection is a ritual. Post-event coffee dates, debriefs, and honest talks keep you grounded and close.
- Remember your priorities. Money, jobs, and outside stress come and go — your partner, kids, and core relationships are the real foundation.
- Honesty over perfection. It's okay to admit when you're struggling, shutting down, or needing space — as long as you communicate it.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
