The Mono/Poly Relationship: Challenges and Solutions with Dr. Elisabeth Sheff
In this episode I speak with my friend, renowned researcher and coach Dr. Elisabeth Sheff returns to discuss the mono-poly relationship dynamic. We explore the challenges, misconceptions, and potential strategies for making such relationships work, emphasizing the importance of meeting partners' needs, effective communication, and mutual understanding. Dr. Sheff shares insights from her research and personal experiences, offering guidance for those navigating relationships where one partner desires monogamy and the other seeks polyamory.
We also discuss the emotional and social hurdles often faced by couples in these dynamics and the significance of seeking support and continued re-evaluation in relationships.
