My Husband Used Polyamory To Steal My Son's Future

This week, Sarah talks to Clara, a single mother and designer who once believed in the ideals of 'relationship anarchy.' She and her then-husband opened their relationship, dreaming of a modern, expansive form of love. They hosted potlucks, read the books, and set the ground rules. But what started as a progressive experiment slowly devolved into a nightmare of betrayal, not just of the heart, but of the financial trust she had placed in her partner. The real reckoning came not during a fight, but in a quiet moment of scrolling through their shared bank account. Clara discovered a five-thousand-dollar transfer to her husband’s new partner, followed by a cryptic text that revealed he was building a new life with their shared money. She shares her story of hitting rock bottom, the profound clarity that came with motherhood, and the painstaking process of rebuilding her life from the ashes of a utopian dream.
