OTWC 002: Stress - On The Wet Coast

On The WetCoast Podcast

On this episode we’re discussing Stress in ethical non-monogamy.

There are so many positive aspects about open relationships but one of the negatives we’ve discovered is how stressful they can be.

Everyone knows that jealousy, self-esteem issues, or mismatched levels of feelings can take their toll, especially when find ourselves managing them poorly or tamping them down in denial or shame. But it's easy to overlook the emotional cost of GOOD stress, like the *excitement* of new experiences, meeting people, and New Relationship Energy.

We’re breaking down a number of different sources of stress in non-monogamy as well as some of the ways we manage, cope with, and process that stress so we can focus on the positive and get the most out of sharing the love.
