How to Have a Successful Open Marriage

Over the years, I’ve become more and more exposed to a variety of alternative lifestyles, and one in particular that has continued to pop up is non-monogamy. I’ve had a lot of mixed emotions about polyamory, open relationships, etc. From judgment to awe, to gratitude, I’ve felt it all.

Sometimes I wondered, Isn’t this just a way to avoid commitment and have your cake and eat it too?

But then, on a different side of the same coin, I’ve witnessed and been a part of such beautiful connections that wouldn’t have been possible without a more open, polyamorous mindset.

Id’ find myself thinking, More love is more love. Period. But then I’d return to my monogamous ways and resign to the fact that I don’t want to share my partner. Needless to say, I don’t have all the answers, but I do have a lot of questions! And this episode begs to answer those.

In this episode, I go behind the scenes of a polyamorous, non-monogamous marriage. We cover everything from what led them to open up the relationship, what rules and agreements keep them feeling safe, what tools and practices keep them feeling connected, and why this lifestyle works for them.

The tools they share in our conversation would benefit anyone in any style of relationship. If you want to understand alternative relationship styles, and how to have a deeper connection within your relationship, no matter what your lifestyle choices are, then this episode is for you.
