Is your relationship focused on creating, preserving, or preventing? Are you spending more time discussing behaviors or values? If a relationship is not defined by sexual or emotional fidelity, then how is it defined?Effy and Jacqueline explore the difference between rules, agreements, boundaries, and promises - and answer the question “If not fidelity, then what?”Support the showConnect with us on IG and more:Curious Fox @wearecuriousfoxesEffy Blue @coacheffyblueJacqueline Misla @jacquelinemisla Email us or send a voice memo: listening@wearecuriousfoxes.comJoin the conversation: fb.com/WeAreCuriousFoxes

Threesomes are often the first port of exploration for both couples and solo adventurers. But how much of it do you plan and how much of it do you leave to chance? No one ever seems to talk about the uncomfortable parts of setting up a threesome, what makes a threesome good or bad, and what happens afterward.  Effy and Jacqueline invite Taylor to talk about her experience as a unicorn (the majestic creature that joins a couple for a night of wonder and magic) and now her quest for a third to join her and her partner. Support the showConnect with us on IG and more:Curious Fox @wearecuriousfoxesEffy Blue @coacheffyblueJacqueline Misla @jacquelinemisla Email us or send a voice memo: listening@wearecuriousfoxes.comJoin the conversation: fb.com/WeAreCuriousFoxes

This time of year always brings pressure to let go of the old and embrace the new. Faced with a new decade ahead marked as the "decade of transformation," it can feel like a time of grand change. Transforming from one version of ourselves to another. We have decided to take a different approach to this thinking - to challenge the status quo if you will - and are focusing on evolution. While transformation denotes a dramatic change from one thing to another, Effy and Jacqueline discuss how we are focusing on evolution - by stripping away the things that no longer align with our truth. Our relationships will evolve, as will our perspectives, behaviors, style, and way of showing up in the world. And our deep hope is that evolution will turn us more into who we really are, and not transform us into someone else.Support the showConnect with us on IG and more:Curious Fox @wearecuriousfoxesEffy Blue @coacheffyblueJacqueline Misla @jacquelinemisla Email us or send a voice memo: listening@wearecuriousfoxes.comJoin the conversation: fb.com/WeAreCuriousFoxes

Figuring out the right relationship design for you and your partner(s) is key to thriving. If that design falls outside the status quo, how do you communicate it to other people in your life? Do you talk about your husband’s boyfriend at work? Do you include your girlfriend in the family christmas card? Do you ask for another plus one for partnered events?Effy and Jacqueline sit down with a live panel to hear their diverse stories and to discuss coming out as non-monogamous.Support the showConnect with us on IG and more:Curious Fox @wearecuriousfoxesEffy Blue @coacheffyblueJacqueline Misla @jacquelinemisla Email us or send a voice memo: listening@wearecuriousfoxes.comJoin the conversation: fb.com/WeAreCuriousFoxes

The first step towards a healthy and thriving relationship of any kind is to know yourself. When people talk about trying to find themselves, have you ever wonder what the hell that means. Or more specifically, how does one go about actually “finding” themselves.From sexual or relational orientation to the way we show and receive love, knowing who we are and how we show up in the world is key to designing relationships we can thrive in.
