In this episode, Danny shares her polyamorous breakup story.

What is polyamory? According to the Oxford dictionary, it's the practice of engaging in multiple romantic (and typically sexual) relationships, with the consent of all the people involved. When we recorded this episode, Danny was in the midst of planning her wedding to her nesting partner, which is already a sensitive, emotional, process to go through - which made me even more grateful that she took the time record with me. You'll hear all about how she processed the breakup, how she grew from self-judgement to trust, how her partner supported her, and the essential role of community in supporting our bonded relationships.
