Dear Poly is a podcast about sexual exploration and polyamory.  With our upcoming month of shame in August I thought this would be a great opportunity to share my experience at the nudist resort that I attended earlier this month. I was shocked by the specific insecurities that I was confronted with and thought Sky would be the perfect person to discuss this topic! Check below for links to Sky.

In this episode we come full circle and I am joined by the hosts of Normalizing Non-Monogamy the podcast that started it all for me!
