EP89: Polyamory & What Monogamy Can Learn From Polyamory Featuring Roy Graff

Published: July 28, 2021, 6 a.m.

Polyamory is still a bit of a social taboo, but why?

\xa0

Have we been so entrenched in the idea that one person can only love one person at a time, or is it that we can't bear the idea of having to deal with the jealousy of sharing our partner?

\xa0

In monogamous relationships, are we placing too much pressure on our partners to fulfil all of our needs? And is that just leaving us with a string of disappointing relationships?

\xa0

In this weeks episode, we will be answering all these questions and so much more.

\xa0

This weeks guest Roy Graff is a mentor and coach who specialises in helping individuals, couples, and polycules navigate polyamory and conscious relating.

\xa0

This week's episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about polyamory, open relating, and conscious monogamy. There is so much practical information for bettering your relationships.

\xa0

We talk about building open and honest polyamorous relationships through personal responsibility for needs and desire, boundaries and powerful communication.\xa0

We dive deeply into how these same ideas can be brought into your monogamous relationship to form a deeper, happier and stronger bond.\xa0
