Normalizing Non-Monogamy - Personal Stories of Polyamory, Swinging, and Beyond

Katt brings such incredible energy and positivity to this powerful discussion on personal growth and self-discovery. As she describes it, she grew up as a prude who was pretty much afraid of all things sex. However, in the last few years she has completely redefined her approach to relationships and sex. She is currently exploring solo polyamory and spending time with the people she wants to, when she wants to. You're not going to want to skip this one...   Katt and her best friend also host The V Spot Podcast which she describes as a vegan-ish survival podcast for best friends.

Axel and his wife opened their relationship a few years ago after she came to him and let him know that she had fallen in love with another guy. This was a wakeup call that they had put their marriage on cruise control and that something had to change. Over the last few years they have rethought their entire approach to the relationship and their lives overall. Now they’re happily married and have found a way to blend swinging, polyamory, and BDSM into an intentional and dynamic relationship that is thriving. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.     Axel has also written a book called Marriage and Beyond (Note: We said the incorrect name during the show, the book is not Rethinking Relationships), that will be published soon. He has taken all of the information he has learned throughout his journey, combined it with interviews from others who are exploring and studying non-monogamy, and consolidated it into an incredible resource for us all.

Pearl is in her early thirties and has been exploring polyamory for a little over two years. She describes her introduction to non-monogamy as being poly under duress. Her ex-fiancé brought up the idea of threesomes and a triad and she felt she didn't really have much of a choice other than to go along with it. Two years later, she is on her own solo poly journey and has grown and learned so much about herself along the way. This is a beautiful conversation and we hope you enjoy it.   Check out the full show notes here. Click here to join our March 18 Virtual Meet and Greet!

Cooper is a polyamorous queer author and podcaster who has been exploring non-monogamy for over a decade. He started the Life on the Swingset podcast with his close friend Dylan just nine months into his journey. It began with him and his wife both individually expressing to their therapist that they wanted to sleep with other people. Eventually they shared this scary revelation with each other and started an incredible adventure together. Over the last 10+ years his journey has evolved many times and as he puts it, opening his marriage was the single most impactful decision he's ever made in his entire life.   Check out the full show notes here.
