PPP #092: Unveiling the Root Causes of Jealousy: Exporing the Psychology Behind Relationship Envy
This one was a great topic to get our teeth into.Jealousy is such a hot topic in the circles we move in from poly connections through to monogamous people seeking to understand the dynamic.This was supported by a recent trip to LB last week and the events that unfolded (all good but because of the work and conversations we’ve had surrounding it!)Ultimately though, we wanted to get to the root cause. The THING that sets off this interesting and complex emotional state! There’s still so much left to say on this but it’s a good start (hopefully!)Listen to our latest episode to learn more!H&B 💚

PPP #090: Fear Projection: When The Imagined Becomes a Reality and What Does This Mean for your Existing Relationships
Episode 90 was a deep and meaningful discussion about the dark fears that come along for the ride when you’re on the journey from monogamy through to polyamory. What is it that truly scares you and why. Why is it that a lot of the time we don’t know what it truly is or we can’t say so we project our fears on to our anchor partners meaning that’s our fears inevitably “come true.” Finally what does this means for your existing relationship(s) and can there ever be a way out or forward from this?…Join us on the discussion…H & B 💚
