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.

This one is really just a Friday fun day episode. We were able to get all four of the guests you heard this week together in one place for a wild ride of an interview. Really, it's just basically us asking them questions while they make out with one another. It's a super fun chat and we hope you enjoy!

Our biggest plot twist yet and another unconventional start to non-monogamy! We absolutely can't recommend this episode enough. Sara and Pete are the authors of a blog called the Swinging Cajuns where they document their journey together. Their marriage has survived, and is now thriving in the face of an infidelity that would normally destroy a couple. They have a ton of insight for anyone who might be working through a similar situation and for the swinging community in general. Thank you to both of them for sharing such an important and difficult part of their lives with us, and with you.
