You can use tonight. [00:00:15] Brandon Ware: Welcome to the sex with Dr. Jess podcast. Dr. Jess, how are you feeling today? [00:00:19] Jess O'Reilly: I'm feeling all right. I'm feeling good. Talk to me. Why is that? We have just disembarked the Desire Cruise, and I don't know if this was maybe number six for us in terms of Desire Cruising, but we just came off a week in Greece with one stop in Turkey. [00:00:33] Jess O'Reilly: It was a lot of fun, but it was pretty intense. [00:00:34] Brandon Ware: Yeah, it was intense. [00:00:36] Jess O'Reilly: Lots of socializing. [00:00:38] Brandon Ware: Yeah, that's an understatement. I always like to party. Oh my gosh. I can't keep up. I don't know. I gotta, I gotta tell you, I don't know how they do it. They're up at like seven in the morning and they party hard until like three in the morning. [00:00:49] Jess O'Reilly: Is that, is that their schedule? I don't know. I'm asleep long before [00:00:52] Brandon Ware: that. I'm, I'm, I'm impressed. [00:00:55] Jess O'Reilly: But it's super friendly crowd. Oh yeah. Like it's so much fun while you're on, but then, you know, when you come off of something that's so highly social, at least me. Oh, I feel like a total drop. I just need to be quiet for a bit. [00:01:07] Jess O'Reilly: Need some time to chill. Yes. Now we are also on route to Atlanta for Sex Town South via Toronto. Very excited for this. So this is definitely a quickie episode because we just don't have a lot of time. We're stopping in Toronto overnight. So that I can feed my dad and see my mom and my stepdad. Check on my plants. [00:01:26] Jess O'Reilly: Yeah, drop off my cleats to my friend's house because I'm gonna, I need her to carry them to a tournament for me in Montreal. But what for? What are you playing? We're not talking about that right now. Okay, I play Ultimate and Brandon likes to make fun of it. [00:01:39] Brandon Ware: Hope Adam's listening right now. Adam Maurer. [00:01:41] Jess O'Reilly: Oh my gosh. [00:01:42] Brandon Ware: I feel like we've bonded over this. [00:01:43] Jess O'Reilly: Brandon calls it Frisbee. If I call it Frisbee, people who play Ultimate are going to get mad at me, but it's the least Ultimate. It's Ultimate. Anyhow, we have a short amount of time, so we are going to get in to three lessons that I learned from lifestyle couples on the cruise.[00:02:00] [00:02:00] Jess O'Reilly: Three lessons from swingers, basically. These couples are swingers now. Definitely not all the couples on the cruise are swingers or lifestylers. I want to say it's about 50 50. Yeah, I would, I would say so. But everybody's pretty open minded. There's a lot of, you know, playfulness. A lot of flirtation. A lot of flirtation, but not, uh, I don't know. [00:02:18] Jess O'Reilly: It feels pretty low pressu...

Resentment, Anger, and Jealousy in a Relationship Welcome back to Asking for Myself, where I ask all the questions you're too afraid to. Today we're talking all things conflict and communication. I had the privilege of being joined by Jayda, aka your Sex Positive Asian Auntie, and Adam Maurer, your “straight-friendly” sex-positive relationship therapist. So, what do we talk about? How do you notice when resentment is starting to show up in a relationship? Is it possible to overcome resentment? How and when can you address issues in a constructive way that doesn't feel “naggy”? How does contempt show up in a relationship and what we can do about it? How can you step back when conversations/arguments start to turn sideways? How can you address perceived imbalance in a relationship? How does emotional labor and mental health factor in? What can you do when you're in therapy and/or working on yourself but the people in your life aren't willing to meet you in your self-growth? How do you grow together and how do you handle when you're growing apart? How do you handle jealousy and overcome relationship insecurities? Can we really expect “everything” from one partner? How can we outsource our emotional needs? Why do we place romantic relationships on such a pedestal and often de-prioritize our friendships? I was definitely asking for myself on this one!

In this episode, I talk with Adam Maurer, LMFT, LPC. Recently while on Instagram, I came across a post that spoke about the Myths of Monogamy and offered an alternative of Modern Monogamy. I was so intrigued by the points made that I shared it on the SPF Instagram and it very quickly got a lot of engagement from our community. Many folks seemed to connect to or be curious about the comparison of these two constructs. So I thought, we need to get the author of this post onto the podcast. Well that author is Adam, a licensed therapist in private practice in the Austin, Texas area who works a great deal with couples and individuals around relationships, especially folks within the LGBTQ+ community. Adam believes that therapy is a place to explore strengths and challenges with acceptance and an open mind and Adam’s work focuses on empowering clients to thrive in a world that is not always understanding. So this episode explores the myths of monogamy and offers insight into modern monogamy. Want to connect with Adam and Moontower Counseling's services and content? Visit the website here.

Together, we will shake the shame and trash the taboos to strengthen sexual health talks with the children in our lives. Thank you so much for joining us! {Same person speaking} "Hi, Families, recently while on Instagram, I came across a post that spoke about the myths of monogamy and offered an alternative of modern monogamy. I was so intrigued by the points made that I shared it on the SPF Instagram and it very quickly got a lot of engagement from our community. Many folx seemed to connect to or be intrigued by the comparison of these two constructs. So I thought, we need to get the author of this post onto the podcast. Well, that author is Adam Maurer of Moontower Counseling. Adam is a licensed therapist in private practice in the Austin, Texas area who works a great deal with couples and individuals around relationships, especially folx within the LGBTQ+ community. Adam believes that therapy is a place to explore strengths and challenges with acceptance and an open mind, and Adam's work focuses on empowering clients to thrive in a world that is not always understanding. So this episode explores the myths of monogamy and offers insight into modern monogamy. Let's check it out." Melissa Carnagey: "I am very excited to have the SPF community hearing your perspective, and especially on this topic of exploring the concept of monogamy versus modern monogamy, because some of this relationship stuff can make people's heads spin. It can get a little too close to home. But before we get into that I would love to hear, and have you share what your journey has been to the work that you're doing." Adam Maurer: “Yes, so I kind of grew up in a chaotic family, with parents who didn't get along. Mix that with being a young,
