Family Meeting Time 🧠💔
One listener is in a long-distance relationship that began as polyamorous but turned exclusive, or so they thought. After a betrayal involving an ex from the original poly dynamic, they're wondering:

“Am I wrong for asking my partner to cut off contact with her ex if we’re going to make this work?”

We break it all down:

• What polyamory actually means (and how it differs from open relationships)

• Why emotional and physical boundaries still matter after shifting to monogamy

• What to do when trust is broken and accountability is missing

• The hard truth: Love isn't enough without respect, clarity, and shared values

Plus, we highlight a past podcast gem: “The Contract to My Polyamory” ft. Jerrie Johnson — a powerful conversation on redefining relationship structures and setting intentional agreements. (Go queue it up after this!)

And if you're curious about how real-life poly families make it work, we’re also talking about the show Polyfamily on HBO Max, messy, beautiful, and so worth discussing.
