PPP #088: Exploring Relationship Boundaries - Is Opening Up Right For You? Poly Pocket podcast

1:06:09

Well... What a journey we've all been on for the past 100 episodes. In case you haven't listened to all of them, we've tried to sum up the core thinking behind this podcast into a single episode for you. (If you have listened to the previous 99, then this is just some light revision, GCSE style) Thank you as always for your support. We will be taking a few weeks off to plan for what we're euphemistically calling 'Season 2' and will be back in the summer. In the meantime, we'll be posting what we get up to via Instagram @poly_pocket_show and you can e-mail any ideas for the show to hunter@polypocketpodcast.com or ask Butcher on a date at butcher@polypocketpodcast.com For now though, keep us and your protection, in your pocket 💚 H & B x…

There were a lot of feelings and emotions going around with this particular episode. Butcher got angry, Hunter talked her down 🤣 Guess when you’re debating feelings and their place within ENM, polyamory and swinging it really does get people going!

Going to put it out there - Butcher was not well when we recorded this so we hope it makes sense and somewhat entertaining.

PPP #095: Transitioning with grace: Managing de-escalation in polyamorous relationships 54:20

1 year ago54:20

54:20

In this episode we discuss the art of managing the de-escalation of relationships when you’re polyamorous and the potential reasons why you might do this. It still surprises us how difficult break-ups in changes to dynamics (especially if you’re effectively going back on something) can be. In this episode we try and unpick this whilst also asking for kindness and grace when dealing with others heads and hearts. Have a listen and as always, let us know what you think!

PPP #092: Unveiling the Root Causes of Jealousy: Exporing the Psychology Behind Relationship Envy 37:58

1 year ago37:58

37:58

This one was a great topic to get our teeth into. Jealousy is such a hot topic in the circles we move in from poly connections through to monogamous people seeking to understand the dynamic. This was supported by a recent trip to LB last week and the events that unfolded (all good but because of the work and conversations we’ve had surrounding it!) Ultimately though, we wanted to get to the root cause. The THING that sets off this interesting and complex emotional state! There’s still so much left to say on this but it’s a good start (hopefully!) Listen to our latest episode to learn more! H&B 💚…

PPP #090: Fear Projection: When The Imagined Becomes a Reality and What Does This Mean for your Existing Relationships 51:11

1 year ago51:11

51:11

Episode 90 was a deep and meaningful discussion about the dark fears that come along for the ride when you’re on the journey from monogamy through to polyamory. What is it that truly scares you and why. Why is it that a lot of the time we don’t know what it truly is or we can’t say so we project our fears on to our anchor partners meaning that’s our fears inevitably “come true.” Finally what does this means for your existing relationship(s) and can there ever be a way out or forward from this?… Join us on the discussion… H & B 💚…

PPP #088: Exploring Relationship Boundaries - Is Opening Up Right For You? 59:13

1 year ago59:13

59:13

A deep and raw chat about if opening up is for everyone, who should possibly avoid it and if you really want it, what work needs to be done! We also discuss at length if there are different levels people can open to based on the conditioning and willingness to break out of these cycles. It’s an endless topic… possibly without any real answers but we hope you enjoy and take away as much from it as we gained by having this talk!…
