Are you curious about “non-monogamous ” relationships? No matter what side of the coin you fall on, this conversation is going to be anything but surface level.

In this episode, I have a raw conversation with Candace Klein, lawyer, entrepreneur, and transformational leader whose work bridges finance, technology, and human development. She’s the author of Typhoon Honey: The Only Way Out Is Through and Polyagony, All the Ways We F*ck Up Open Relating (and What We Can Do About It).

We explore the topic of polygamy and open relating, a dynamic I don’t personally align with and we lean into the tension with honesty and respect. Questioning, if these relationships are sustainable or if they are a way to avoid deep intimacy. This conversation is about curiosity and about emotional intelligence. Asking the hard questions: Can non-monogamy truly create safety? What happens to attachment, trust, and long-term devotion? Where do empowerment and avoidance get blurred?

As someone who believes deeply in commitment and sacred partnership, I challenge Candace’s views and she challenges mine. What unfolds is a grounded, thoughtful dialogue about love, autonomy, jealousy, power, trauma, and growth.

Whether you agree, disagree, or sit somewhere in between, this episode invites you to think critically about what conscious relationship really means and to examine your own beliefs about intimacy, freedom, and devotion.

This is a brave one. And I’m here for it.

(This is the first conversation of a two part series)
