In this episode we speak to someone who shares her experiences in a "V" type polyamorous relationship, meaning one person at the center of the relationship. This special guest is now in a monogamous relationship and shares with us the pros and cons of both.

In the final episode of the series we get the perspective of someone who struggled with monogamy and found that while polyamory is a more fitting way of life, there are also struggles that occur. This concludes our series on monogamy and polyamory. We hope that we've offered as much insight as gained. Thanks for the continued support.

In this episode we have the pleasure of speaking to “Naj”. Our spirit sistar who happens to be a polyamorous lover. She gives us insight into what it means to have more than one lover and also what it means to maintain balance for herself. She gives a glimpse of what her days are like in this type of relationship and she also helps to bring an end to the notion that polyamorous is about multiple sexual partners and more about freely loving and connections deeper than sex. This was a very helpful interview and we hope that it is as insightful for our listeners as it has been us.

Our listeners have spoken and HoodxHolistic has a response. How we met and polyamory are the most requested topic for our podcast. This is part 1 of a 3 part series in which we discuss our “love” story as well as the topic of polyamory. Cort questions if we’re all poly and have no idea. What’s interesting is, the more we discuss the idea of polyamory, we realize how rare and unnatural monogamy may actually be. We’ll let the listeners decide. As always thanks for tuning in as well as the ongoing support.

In this episode we dive into colorism, discrimination and domestic violence that too often occurs in our community. Cortney has questioned whether or not Syd from "The Internet" would be bigger if she looked like Young MA. (She loves them both). Ashley shares her story of experiencing domestic violence and together it makes for one of the most organic episodes thus far! Shoutout to the sponsor of this episode: Brooklyn Gray of The Boojeeelaid Studio.

In this episode we discuss our religious upbringings and the things that led us to a “spiritual awakening”. We’ve seen a lot of spirituality versus religion dialogue on social media. Many often feel that they are one in the same so we chimed in with our personal experiences through both practices.

National Coming Out Day is October 11th. In this episode we share how we were outed!! Many people have the privilege of “coming out” of the closet but both of us happen to be busted out. Nonetheless we made the best of lives and are able to share these stories from a better place. We encourage everyone to live their truth and go at their own pace. Remember love is love and that can't be debated.

In this episode we question the validity of the “Gay Agenda” and why it’s hateful language is used to demean those of us of who choose to love and live freely. Between the attacks on television and movie characters, social media bias and style and fashion the gay agenda seems to be taking over the world. Which leaves us with the responsibility to answer the question… What is the Gay Agenda?

In this episode we discuss what it's like to have a relationship and business on social media, as well as ways social media can affect you in real life. While it can be a great way to interact with people from all over the world, it's also important to be aware of the different energies that you may be taking in unknowingly.
