If there are so much pain and tears and walking through fire, why practice polyamory anyway? Janelle and Andrea discuss the best parts of this alternative to monogamy, why they keep coming back to it and how it can strengthen relationships with both their partners and themselves. Also a story about Folk Festival and a quote from the beloved Alan de Botton. You'll hear…

-How poly led both chicas back home to themselves

-Why letting go of form is so damn essential

-Janelle's story about how the most triggering people can be the most transformational

-Why poly opens the door to more intimacy across your life

-How poly helped Andrea and her husband repair a damaged dynamic

-Why being honest with yourself is a requirement for an honest relationship

Get ready for some real-time relationship woo and wisdom--from the front lines about how breaking rules, blurring boundaries and tossing tradition--along with polyamory and plant medicine--have been catalysts for finding our truth. The Permission to Be Human Podcast debunks the myths we were told about fairytales and forever, so we can create a new map for life, love, and conscious relationships. Freedom is, in fact, the new F word.

If you're seeking permission to choose your own path, and want to feel less alone along the way, we've got you.

With heart-shaped sunglasses,

Janelle & Andrea
