I had the distinctive pleasure of podversating with Dr. Nazanin Moali, PhD for her treasure trove of a podcast, Sexology.

We dove into all things outside the box when it comes to poly’ish relationships, including some of the things they can teach the more vanilla among us. Check out my other article on that if you’re curious how such a thing is possible!

Even if you’d never consider such a thing for yourself, you’ll LOVE this episode as a voyeur. Nanazin and I covered everything from religious and societal precedents and taboos to raising children in poly to handling jealousy and more!

We would also be honored if you shared this on your own social media or with someone you feel could benefit from hearing this message. <3

And of course, if you could use a little extra spice in your own relationship or spiritual path, I’d be thrilled to connect in person. See how you might connect with me below. ~ Tamara
