Navigating the Biggest Pitfalls of Open Relationships, Ep. 23
I'm talking to Shai and Lea today, the creators of the Secure Poly Collective about the biggest pitfalls of open relationships and I'm really excited to share this with you because they have so many wonderful tools and ideas. They share with you about how to feel more safe, seen and loved while also having the freedom to explore open relationship adventures that lead to fulfilling growth and healing and service to others.
Shai and Lea are considered two of the go-to people for ethical non-monogamy education. They've built a worldwide brand that includes both a Free and Membership Based Community, Dating,Events, Education & Coaching. Their mission is to help partners thrive, not just survive, in conscious open relationships using their signature Eco-AmoryTM philosophy. What differentiates Lea and Shai in their teachings is that they see conscious non-monogamy as a vehicle for deep healing and personal growth.
