Eliza and Scott have been best friends for 25 years, they may have also hooked up a few times over the years. A recent car accident awakened something inside of them and now they're married. Not only that, they have an open marriage agreement. Sound simple enough? Didn't think so.. And it's actually a lot more complicated than it sounds.   These two have an incredibly heartwarming story and a very deep love and admiration for one another. They're learning to navigate a whole lot of new things together and have been discovering that while it's not always easy, they wouldn't change a thing about it.   Trigger Alert... Grab a tissue. There are some emotional parts and maybe a few tears. :)   Show Notes   Join Our Patreon Community!   $10 Off - Online STI Testing   6 Free Month Trial on Kasidie   https://www.normalizingnonmonogamy.com/

Amy and Scott started exploring non-monogamy fairly recently after Amy *technically* cheated on Scott... Luckily, it seems like the only problem Scott had was that he wasn't there for it! These two are so much fun and a great example of how introverts can successfully navigate swinging with a touch of polyamory!   Show Notes   Join Our Patreon Community!   $10 Off - Online STI Testing   6 Free Month Trial on Kasidie   Save $25 on gifts at The Enclosed with offer code "Emma25"   10% discount at myonecondoms.com with offer code "Emma"   https://www.normalizingnonmonogamy.com/

This is a pretty intense and powerful episode and we're touched that he was willing to share it with us.

Chloe and Drew share an incredibly powerful and moving story with us this week. Their 10+ year relationship has withstood challenges that are hard to comprehend. Throughout the journey they have had to redefine who they each are, what their relationship team looks like, and how they take on all future challenges. Oh yeah, and they're not even 30 yet... We hope this interview is as moving for you as it was for us.   Also, the audio smooths out after a few minutes. It's never terrible, but it gets better after about 5 minutes. :)   Show Notes   Join Our Patreon Community!   Come meet us in person and help build an amazing community!   $10 Off - Online STI Testing   Try 3 Months Free on Double Date Nation!!   Save $25 on gifts at The Enclosed with offer code "Emma25"   10% discount at myonecondoms.com with offer code "Emma"   https://www.normalizingnonmonogamy.com/
