41. Demystifying Non-Monogamy and How You Can Expand Your Relationship | Jessica Williams

Non-monogamy is often misunderstood as being about sex, freedom, or avoiding commitment, but in this conversation, we unpack why it’s actually about radical honesty, emotional regulation, and personal autonomy. In this episode, I sit down with Jessica Williams, LCSW, a therapist who specializes in consensual non-monogamy and polyamory, to explore how discussions around non-monogamy often reveal deeper truths about emotional honesty, self-abandonment, power dynamics, and autonomy, even for women who fully choose monogamy.  It’s about what happens when women in long-term relationships stop suppressing their needs, desires and questions just to “keep the peace.” Connect with Jessica: Check out Jessica’s Website Connect with Francesca: - Follow me on Instagram @lovewithfrancesca - Join our free Reclaiming Love Community and get connected with other women just like you looking to figure out whether they should stay or leave their long-term relationship! ✨ Don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast.
