In an episode recorded in a community garden on New York’s Lower East Side, Rosie chats to author and relationship coach Laura Boyle about her book Monogamy? In This Economy?, the relative financial and emotional costs of breakups in monogamous and polyamorous setups, relationship anarchy, metamours, slow breakups, de-escalation and conscious communication skills. They’re then joined by storyteller and educator Alex Alberto who discusses their book Entwined: Essays on Polyamory and Creating Home, redefining notions of failure and success, breakups and creativity, professional breakups, professional jealousy and more.
