Non-monogamy is not for everyone, but maybe you are curious about it. Could it be right for you? How do non-monogamous couples deal with jealousy? I was curious myself, and the more I asked, the more I became surprised by this unexplored topic. In Polycurious I have casual and intimate conversations with non-monogamous couples, sex and relationship experts, friends, and even people who tried polyamory and realized it wasn’t for them. This podcast is for the polycurious, whether you have explored non-monogamy or not.

Today, I talk to writer and coach Sarah Stroh (Monogamish_me on Instagram), a week before giving birth. We speak of how becoming pregnant changed the dating game for her and put her identity as a flirty and adventurous person into question. She also tells us about what led her to decide to co-parent with a friend and how that influenced her partner.

In the second part of my conversation with Melissa and Jay, we discuss their transition from being open to polyamory, partially due to their three kids leaving for college. They each share their unique methods of dealing with jealousy and other challenging emotions, as well as how they've adapted to these feelings. Finally, they talk about their experience of revealing their non-monogamous relationship to their children, and the unexpected outcomes that followed.

41. Getting Comfortable with MMF Threesomes with Chamberlin & Michael
Chamberlin and Michael struggled a lot in their relationship, having periods of opening and closing, cheating and hurting each other and ultimately breaking up. About a month after they broke up, Chamberlin found out that she was pregnant. And for reasons we discuss in the podcast, this pregnancy completely shifted their relationship, for the best.
Today we also talk about Michael’s process getting comfortable with having threesomes with other men. So if you are in a heterosexual partnership where you might want to bring a second man in, you might find some useful insights in here.
At the end of the episode we also get an update from Mariah, my bestie and ex-cohost of Polycurious.

Customer Reviews
My fav show
Wonderful podcast that offers valuable insights, practical advice, and thought-provoking discussions on navigating the complexities of polyamorous relationships.
If you’re thinking about a non-conventional relationship
Engaging and informative conversations covering the entire range from those monogamous but curious to those fully polyamorous and parenting. Really great introduction to ideas and experiences in doing relationships a bit differently than the norm.
Just so freaking good!
We’re early on our journey and it has been so helpful to hear other peoples stories told in such an authentic way. When we opened this Pandora’s box we didn’t really know what we were getting into. Something we realized through listening to this podcast is that there are so many ways to approach polyamory. Some that untangle a thread we want to pull on, others were just not interested in exploring. Without the stories that Fer and the guest so bravely share, we’d step into uncharted territory without a map. So grateful I found it and recommend it to anybody who is even thinking about exploring the space or just interested in learning about how these stories can help them understand their broader relationships.
