This week, we welcome Emilie Modaff to the show.
Emilie and Tyler start their conversation by digging into the finer points of addiction and what that means for the many relationships in Emilie's life. Hear them candidly talk about a more inclusive idea of love and relationships, including the families that result from addiction recovery groups. Emilie is also polyamorous and the two dig into the finer details of what that means. They close their chat detailing what it was like to grow up in a more traditional family unit, as well as their beautiful relationships with their parents, living with them during the pandemic as an adult and how that has got them closer.
