Check out my podcast, created because I haaaate it when people who don’t know anything about non-monogamy try to portray anything about the non-monogamous community. What started as a reaction podcast to the reality TV show The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, we now discuss where swinging/ENM shows up in main stream media and other shows. Join me, alongside my co-host Ben, an ex-LDS polyamorous friend. Together, we peel back the curtain on how the media portrays ENM.

what is “lifestyle”
-
Ethical Non-Monogamy
Ethical non-monogamy (ENM) and consensual non-monogamy (CNM) are, for most intents and purposes, the same thing and they are generic terms for participation in romantic relationships that are not completely exclusive between two people (who may or may not be in a committed relationship)…and everyone knows it.
-
The Lifestyle
The Lifestyle is a general term used most by swingers for a community of people (usually couples) that are sexually open with other couples and/or singles. Couples in lifestyle usually consider themselves emotionally monogamous, but are open to sexual experiences with others. Everyone involved knows the arrangement of everyone else.
-
Polyamory
Polyamory differs somewhat in that it is the practice of having or being open to multiple romantic relationships, again, with the knowledge and consent of everyone involved. While polyamory focuses on love, other forms tend to focus more on sex.
The thing to know
ENM, or Lifestyle, can be anything you want it to be as
long as everyone knows about it and everyone is
enthusiastically consenting.
why use a lifestyle coach?
because it’s only amazing when you are both having fun. but then…
Protect the most important thing: your relationship. If you are interested in ethical non-monogamy (ENM), but feel nervous or afraid, that is normal. Instead of focusing on your fears and the unknowns, I can help you focus on what you want to sustain and what you want to create together.
You’ll have lots of questions. I know because I’ve been there. I can answer your questions and those you don’t yet know to ask. I will guide you through conversations that you don’t yet know to have.
…It can be mind-blowing.
