Jealousy to Compersion: Communicating Through Emotions in Open Relationships with Ally Iseman
Nope! We're Not Monogamous
Ever wondered if you can learn to feel compersion instead of jealousy? Or if talking about opening up your relationship means you're actually ready to do it? This episode dives deep into these questions and more!
I'm joined by Ally Iseman, a certified relationship coach and founder of Passport to Pleasure. Ally brings her unique blend of humor, compassion, and practical tools to help couples navigate the complexities of non-monogamy.

- Why "conversation is lubrication" and how to make it work for you
- Reframing jealousy (even the hot kind!) as a tool for growth
- The value of understanding consensual non-monogamy, regardless of your relationship style
- Ally's step-by-step method for moving through jealousy
