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


Listen Later

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

 

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?

 

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?

 

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

 

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

 

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.

 

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

 

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

 

Roy and I talk from our own experience of open relating, polyamory and monogamy about what has worked and, more importantly, what has not worked, not worked!

 

The key topics are:

 

🧬 What is polyamory

🧬 The difference between open relationships and polyamory

🧬 How to be responsible for your own needs in a relationship

🧬 Benefits of polyamory

🧬 Misconception of polyamory

🧬 Where jealously really comes from

🧬 Why relationships are really about growth

🧬 Why do we struggle to create healthy relationship dynamics

🧬 Why inauthenticity ruins relationships

🧬 Why society shames people for being polyamorous

🧬 Why conflict is an opportunity for deeper intimacy

🧬 Importance of clearly asking for what you need

🧬 Trauma and jealousy
