Ep 311 - Rachel
Normalizing Non-Monogamy - Interviews in Polyamory and Swinging25 Okt 2023

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.

Ep 1 - The Vision + Our Journey

Ep 1 - The Vision + Our Journey

The very first episode of Normalizing Non-Monogamy! We updated this episode in November 2019. Don't worry, we still chat about our vision for the podcast, some notes about everything to come, and a bit of our 10+ year journey navigating the world of swinging and non-monogamy. However, it is also now in an interview format like the rest of our episodes! A.J. Bond, the host of Discomfortable, a podcast about shame, interviewed us about our experience with non-monogamy and we thought it was too good not to share on our channel too. This episode aired on his show in October 2019...   Show Notes   Check out A.J.'s Podcast Discomfortable   Discomfortable Episode 66: Getting Discomfortable with Non-Monogamy   $10 Off - Online STI Testing   Join Our Patreon Community!   Kasidie Online Dating   https://www.normalizingnonmonogamy.com/
