Ep 311 - Rachel
Rachel's first appearance on the podcast was over 300 episodes, and five years ago. She originally shared her story on episode 8 with her partner and used a pseudonym. A lot has changed since then. Rachel has been exploring non-monogamy for close to a decade. Initially, she and her partner were in a hierarchical relationship where they explored swinging, dating as a couple, and a bit of polyamory. As time went on, their dynamic shifted and they eventually found themselves in a pseudo-quad dynamic where there was much less hierarchy. More recently, she has embraced the concept of being her own primary partner, while investing in a committed relationship. Rachel is incredibly eloquent and vulnerable in this interview. We have amazing conversations about maintaining friendship after transitioning a romantic partnership, rekindling romantic partnerships after a breakup, processing the grief and loss of a relationship, the power and vulnerability in asking for help and leaning on your support system, and we dig into capacity and healing around commitments and expectations. There is so much that is wonderful about this conversation. If that wasn't enough... Rachel is also a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW-C) and an AASECT certified sex therapist (CST). She is kink, poly, and LGBTQ friendly with a wide range of experience working with individuals and couples on a myriad of treatment issues, including sexuality, communication, conflict, life transitions, lack of emotional or physical intimacy, depression, anxiety, trauma, and more.

Laura and David share an experience with us that has never been discussed on the show... Simply put, they had a baby together. It's definitely much more complicated than that. You'll see. They have now been exploring consensual non-monogamy together for about five years and have watched their dynamic evolve in many ways over that time. They are incredible people that we're honored to call friends and they have an amazing story. You won't be disappointed if you have a listen.

Michelle and Steve never really closed their relationship after they got together. Steve had explored non-monogamy in the past but this was Michelle's first time even hearing about it but it made so much sense to her that she was game to give it a try. After a few bumps, things smoothed out and they found their groove. Over the last few years they have been exploring various forms of swinging and polyamory all over Europe and have been having a blast.

Ep 122 - Carrie + Jack

Carrie and Jack started exploring non-monogamy, mainly of the hotwife variety, the day before we published our first podcast episode, exactly two years ago! Happy anniversary to them and to us! Over those two years they have had a LOT of fun! These two are an absolute blast and their sex-positivity and support for each other is incredible. They could easily have a spinoff show titled "The Adventures of Carrie" and it would be a smash hit.
