How to Open Your Relationship (and Actually Make It Work) ft. The Polyamory Therapy Collective
Episode 121
Thursday, 13 March, 2025
So, you wanna open up your relationship but don’t wanna crash and burn in a fiery mess of jealousy and regret? We got you. We’re joined by three queer, non-monogamous therapists from the Polyamory Therapy Collective to give you the ultimate survival guide to ENM—how to start the convo, avoid rookie mistakes, and actually enjoy the ride. We’re unpacking couples’ privilege, imposter syndrome, and why your gut is doing backflips every time your partner even mentions someone new. Whether you're non-monogamy-curious or in the trenches, this one's essential.
