Show notes

Scarlet is back for Part 2 to go deeper on what happens when swinging collides with polyamory. From EMDR and brainspotting to jealousy, veto power, and talking with kids, this conversation is candid, practical, and very real.

  • What EMDR and brainspotting actually do — and why they help after tough moments
  • Jealousy, reassurance rituals, and renegotiating time after a breakup
  • Veto power in the moment vs. pre-set rules (and how both can fail)
  • NRE (“new relationship energy”) versus long-term connection — spotting the difference
  • Individual therapy vs. couples/polycules: why one size doesn’t fit all
  • Kids & honesty: giving language for the world they already see at home
