#relationshipadvice #compassion #communication #relationshipcoach #polyamory #consensualnonmonogamy #ENM #poly #selfadvocacy #autonomy #authenticity #vulnerability Join Emotional Wellness and Relationship coaches Greg and Leanne Million as they explore what being a compassionate partner is, and what it isn't. With a slight detour into what the differences and similarities are between a Relationship Anarchist and Greg's coined term, "Relationship Autonomist", the Millions explore compassionate partnering and surprise even themselves with how much it means to them. NOTE: This is a poly-friendly podcast, and the content is applicable to all types of relationships. IMPORTANT: While it is important to self-advocate in our relationships, if you feel unsafe, please consult a local therapist, social worker or shelter to help you plan an exit strategy.
