Non-monogamy: the subject can be a touchy one, particularly as it is yet another relationship road seemingly less traveled, and therefore less openly discussed. The less we know about something, the scarier it is.
There are plenty of people who prefer and enjoy monogamy; for many, however, non-monogamy provides a more fulfilling alternative. The practice of non-monogamy can look different to different people, and exists in a variety of forms. And, as with most everything, communication is key to a healthy understanding of how best you and your partner can approach it.
In this episode of The Sex Talk with Mou, Mou speaks with Shades of Non-Monogamy, the husband-wife team Wayne and Melissa LeSane, about their coaching work and the community-building they support for those interested in or already pursuing opening their relationship. Wayne and Melissa are a sex coach and sex therapist, respectively, who have been navigating their journey through non-monogamy for over two decades. The couple discusses how they came to develop their company entity Shades of Non-Monogamy, as well as aspects of their own experiences along the way.
Wayne and Melissa offer tips on how to navigate the often-difficult waters of opening up your relationship in a way that benefits everyone involved.
