#12 Exploring Non-Monogamous Relationships and Attachment Styles with Jemma Hardelle
In this episode of the Tune.In podcast, I am joined by Jemma Hardelle a therapist specialising in the LGBTQIA community, to discuss complex relationship dynamics.
Jemma shares insights from her five-year therapeutic journey, focusing on gender, sex, and relationship diversity, including topics such as polyamory, monogamy, and the concept of 'monogamish' relationships.
They explore the evolution of personal relationships over time, the importance of communication and boundary-setting, and how society's historical and cultural constructs influence modern relationship expectations. This thought-provoking conversation delves into attachment styles, the challenges and rewards of non-monogamous relationships, and practical steps for couples contemplating an open relationship. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their relationship preferences and the importance of vulnerability and honesty within their partnerships.
