Today I am talking to Lelia Gowland, a married Southern woman with a literal white picket fence, who confronted her fears and her need for anonymity to very publicly embrace her queer and polyamorous identities and discover the beauty of deep connection and authentic self expression. You will hear us talk about how the polyamory landscape has evolved over the last decade or two, and how self acceptance of your personal identities, queer, polyamorous, non monogamous, whatever they are, can affect you.  

Lelia is a writer and a speaker who centers her work on authenticity. She's written for publications like Forbes, Huffington Post, and Harper Bazaar, and she speaks to organizations and individuals about leading with authenticity to create happier, more productive lives.

💨 TLDR;

• Embracing Polyamory
• Coming Out as Polyamorous
• Unlearning Monogamy
• Finding Connection Without Labels
• Embracing Identity
• What Authenticity Doesn’t Look Like
• Business and Polyamory
• Being Gentle With Yourself
