In this inaugural episode of Poly Pathways, hosts Kat and Doc dive into the rich landscape of polyamory resources across social media, podcasts, books, and online communities. They explore how these various platforms and voices have shaped their understanding of ethical non-monogamy and continue to influence their poly journeys. The hosts share their personal experiences with different content creators while offering insights into which resources might be most valuable for listeners at different stages of their polyamorous exploration.

The discussion weaves through various social media accounts that offer everything from therapeutic perspectives to practical advice about polyamorous relationships. The hosts highlight accounts like TherapyJeff, Millennial.Therapist, SteadyPolyamory, Ready for Polyamory, Polyfamory, and Chill Polyamory, discussing how each offers unique insights into different aspects of ethical non-monogamy.
