Join us as we talk to Danielle, a content creator, storyteller, and mother of two about what it has been like to be in an open, committed relationship for the past 13 years. Danielle speaks candidly about how she felt when the man with whom she planned to spend the rest of her life first suggested the idea of non-monogamy, and the concerns it evoked, not only from within, but from those around her. Danielle takes us through those early conversations, counseling us on the importance of taking things one step at a time. She regales us with escapades at swingers clubs, first dates with other people, and the decision to return to monogamy during the early years of parenthood. As with most relationships, Danielle’s has been challenged by periods of heartbreak, jealousy and insecurity, but it has also been defined by open communication, deep love and an enduring commitment. Regardless of where you may fall on the monogamy/polyamory spectrum, you will undoubtedly leave this conversation wiser, and perhaps more open to the many shapes of loving and committed relationships.
