To ring in the new year, we dive into the topic of relationship hierarchy. We discuss the arguments for and against hierarchical non-monogamy, ethical considerations when structuring your relationships and if there is a difference between structural hierarchy and emotional hierarchy.
We also chat about if it's possible to practice non-heirarchical non-monogamy when you're married and how we see our future marriage looking.

Uncoupling, Jealousy And Radical Honesty feat. Nicole Pacent
It's a longy, but a goody.
Today we are joined by actor, producer and writer Nicole Pacent to talk about everything from jealousy, to commitment, to starting new relationships and transitioning in others. For the first time, Nicole talks about uncoupling from a long-term partner who is a parent to her son and the difficulty navigating this when there is no social script.
We also talk about the risks of being out as Poly, the power of radical honesty and myths around Poly people and feeling jealous.
This is a raw, honest and funny episode and we are so excited to share it with you.
We can't thank Nicole enough for her openness and vulnerability in sharing her story with us. You can find Nicole on Instagram and check out Coming Out Pod. You can find out more about As Love Goes here.
