#182 Why Ethical Non-Monogamy Might Just Be Your Path to Relationship Freedom

Did you know that a staggering 60-70% of people in monogamous relationships aren't having regular sex? This really challenges the notion that intimacy is the defining characteristic of a romantic partnership. In today's inspiring episode, I had the incredible opportunity to delve into the fascinating world of ethical non-monogamy and relationship anarchy with Jamie. Together, we shed light on the subtleties of ENM, dispelling misconceptions and emphasizing that it's rooted in consensual, purposeful connections, not deceit. We navigated through the distinctions between polyamory and polygamy, unpacked the concept of the relationship escalator, and celebrated the myriad ways romantic bonds can flourish outside conventional frameworks.
