In the first episode of our two-part interview with Dr. Heath Schechinger, we talk about terminology and learn the nuances between different types of non-traditional relationships. We touch on jealousy and how much there is to be learned — regardless of what type of relationship you’re in — from the important communication required to navigate such a complex emotion.

We talk a lot about how much there is to be learned from all of the open communication required for non-traditionally structured relationships, and lastly, we discuss the evolution and the expectations of monogamy. 

Dr. Heath is a researcher, psychologist at The University of California Berkeley, and co-chair of the American Psychological Association Division 44 Consensual Non-monogamy Task Force.
