Ep 42: Lola Phoenix The Anxious Person's Guide to Non-monogamy

Join us, Leanne & Greg Million, Certified Relationship Coaches as we chat with Lola Phoenix, the delightful author of "The Anxious Person's Guide to Non-monogamy" and "The Non-monogamy Journal"!We spoke to Lola about the concept of "anchor" as a grounding tool for navigating non-monogamy, especially for anxious individuals. She shared her struggles as an introvert and in trying to find community in polyam, as well as emphasizing that understanding one's nervous system and reframing anxiety as a protective response rather than an enemy can be helpful. She suggests treating anxious thoughts as a part of oneself that needs comfort, rather than something to fight against We are all definitely on the same page about the importance of taking responsibility for one's role in creating and cultivating healthy relationships.You can reach Lola and find her books and upcoming course at www.nonmonogamyhelp.comInterested in Coaching with one of us?
