EPISODE 162 Interview with Clive Silvaticus. Clive Silvaticus is an IT professional, communicator, musician, anarchist, and former soldier from Herefordshire, UK. Clive's introduction to Loving Without Boundaries came from his life partner, convinced as she was that he could be more aligned with his best life, and more involved in the polyamorous community. She had a point. Clive has always been polyamorous by orientation, always been uncomfortable with the ideology behind monogamy, and the structures that support it, and is working to help bring awareness and acceptance to polyamorous relating. Today, his focus is on understanding the communicative tools and skills necessary to make positive supportive, polyamory accessible to all.
