Hi! We’re your hosts Emma and Fin! We’re a married couple in our late thirties and we’ve been exploring non-monogamy in different ways since nearly the beginning of our relationship more than twenty years ago. But, this podcast isn’t about us…
We strongly believe there isn’t a “right way” to be non-monogamous or even that non-monogamy is better or more evolved than monogamy or any other relationship style. Every week we interview people from across the spectrums of gender, sexuality, and relationship style to learn from their incredible and powerful personal stories.
Each episode is a unique perspective and personal story… Pick one that sounds interesting and give it a listen!
We hope that by sharing the amazing journeys of those who are redefining and pushing the limits of what’s possible in relationships that we can show people that they’re not alone and inspire us all to embrace our true selves so that, together, we can open minds and live authentically without shame.

Rapunzel is back to talk with us again and this time she brought a partner with her. She's been married twice and swore she wasn't going to do that nonsense again... Guess what? She was wrong! This episode is an amazing look at how two people with very different levels of experience in non-monogamy have been able to come together and build an incredible partnership.

Hazel and James started their relationship over a decade ago, but with a twist... Hazel was married. She talks about how she has reconciled the guilt from her infidelity and how she and James have used it as a catalyst to open their own marriage as a team. They have been exploring non-monogamy for a few years and in that short time they have covered everything from swinging to having a partner and her kids move in with them. This is an incredible story and these two are fantastic storytellers!

Jamie was first introduced to non-monogamy during college when her and a boyfriend started to explore swinging. Since then she has been learning what her needs are and taking care of her relationship with herself. This has led her to discovering, and dare we say, fall in love with, polyamory. She now identifies as solo poly and has been working the last few years to create and grow amazing communities dedicated to helping people understand and safely explore non-monogamy on their own terms. If you're looking to find or build a community of your own, you don't want to miss this one!
