#71 - Join Alexandra Stockwell, a physician and intimacy marriage expert, and Jackie Melfi, an author, coach, and operator of clubs related to the swingers lifestyle, for a thought-provoking conversation about the role of communication in both monogamous and open relationships. They delve into the importance of a strong emotional connection between partners before exploring an open lifestyle, and emphasize that it should not be an alternative to working on the relationship.
Throughout the conversation, the speakers address the misconceptions and stigmas surrounding open relationships, often due to media focus on the sexual aspects. They advocate for seeing open relationships as a spectrum rather than a binary choice, highlighting the importance of conversation, vulnerability, and transparency between partners.
