Episode 32: Finding ourselves through our Dom/sub marriage The seeking of authenticity has been an integral part of what has made our D/s marriage so special and unique. So often, D/s relationships value things like obedience and performance. But for us, this has always been about deeper intimacy with each other. And that has led us to look inward and become more of who we really are. But authenticity can bring us apart. Or certainly lead us to fear losing love or being abandoned, because it involves unwinding codependent patterns. So in this episode, we discuss how deeper authenticity has allowed us to come into connection and intimacy with each other, and how D/s has created the structure for us to accept and love each other in our fullness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Andrew & Dawn are full time coaches and educators, working to support individuals and couples in building healthy, loving Dom/sub relationships.    Here are some of the different free and paid options of how to work with and learn from us!  Subscribe: Get updates when we publish new episodes of Dom Sub Devotion and other new content at https://www.infinitedevotion.com/podcastsubscribe  Website: Visit our website at https://infinitedevotion.com for all of our latest content.  Coaching: You can learn more about working with us in 1-1 coaching and our various workshops, courses, and programs at https://infinitedevotion.com/work-with-us    Communion is a 6 month small group coaching program for women who are working to let go of control and live a more feminine, surrendered existence.
