Podcasts about building conscious

Please join us for episode fifty in which Open Deeply's co-host, who is a psychotherapist and a two-time cancer survivor, discloses the intertwined psychedelic journey and cancer journey that she experienced throughout 2023. The story begins with a psychedelic journey at a retreat center deep in jungles of Costa Rica that changes the trajectory of her life for close to a year. During her last psychedelic experience at the retreat center, her lung area felt like a concrete block. She tried to use all her somatic psychotherapy skills to move it through to no avail. She describes how she finally resolved her suffering and what happened once she returned home. She had learned from listening to countless stories of psychedelic journeys, that it's not wise to ignore the medicine if it focuses on a body part. So, upon returning to L.A., she decided to get her lungs checked. Months later, the biopsy results revealed that she had a small tumor in her lung. The doctors kept asking, “How did you know to come in?” Strange but true. Now, most people describe cancer as a monster. We often here, “F*ck cancer!” But what if, in some cases, cancer has something to teach us. In Kate's experience, she states that although having cancer both times was brutal, the lessons it has taught her keep coming. She describes it as more of a spiritual journey that has provided tremendous growth. And she has lived to tell us about it in this episode. So, join us, for another episode of Open Deeply, in which we will find out why so many cancer survivors ask the question, “Why did it take cancer to teach me how to live?” Kate's Bio: Kate Loree, LMFT, is a sex-positive licensed marriage and family therapist with a specialty in non-monogamous, kink, LGBTQ, and sex worker communities and the author of Open Deeply: A Guide to Building Conscious, Compassionate Open Relationships.

Sex-positive psychotherapist, Kate Loree joins us to talk about managing mental health within polyamory and consensual non-monogamy -- specifically how mood and personality disorders like anxiety, depression, BPD, NPD, etc., can impact these relationships. According to NAMI  one in five American adults experienced mental illness in 2020. When we combine this with consensual non-monogamy (CNM), things can become even more complex. As Kate points out, CNM tends to poke at unresolved attachment injuries more than is typical in monogamous relationships plus polyamory involves more people which means there's more to navigate. While this conversation is geared toward non-monogamous relationships, the strategies Kate discusses can be adapted to various relationship styles, including kink dynamics and monogamous relationships.

Let's talk about non-monogamy! In the nearly two decades since I've been doing the show, I've never gotten so much interest in this topic as I am right now. Which is why I'm joined today by cultural anthropologist Dr. Wednesday Martin, who in addition to researching non-monogamy for her books and articles, has first-hand experience opening up her own marriage. On today's episode, Wednesday reveals what modern sex research shows about female sexuality and long-term, monogamous relationships: a woman's desire typically wanes between year 1 to 4. In addition, Wednesday and I discuss the difference between non-monogamy, swinging and polyamory, how to go about finding a partner outside of your primary relationship, how to set rules, and the surprising ways opening up improved her own partnership.

When it comes to relationships, most of us have realized one size doesn't fit all. My guest today is Kate Loree. She's a sex-positive licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in the non-monogamous, kink, LGBTQ, and sex worker communities. Kate's also the author of “Open Deeply: A Guide to Building Conscious, Compassionate Open Relationships,” which i think everyone should read regardless if they're poly or not.  Kate's story is an interesting one. She spent a decade in the poly lifestyle and uses those experiences to contribute to her wisdom as a therapist. In this week's episode, she explains how she guides people through the pitfalls of creating relationships tailored to their own specific needs. Additionally, Kate provides useful case studies to illustrate how to use her communication model to help couples manage their triggers. Not only that, she breaks down how understanding different attachment styles or injuries, and historical trauma are valuable and relevant in successfully navigating an open relationship. There's so much to gain from her story and knowledge and can't wait to share it with the world tomorrow. 

What are the attachment styles and how do they impact relationships in general, especially non-monogamy? How do people know if they are non-monogamous? What's the difference between fantasy and innate needs or desires? How do people's unresolved attachment injuries get triggered within non-monogamy and how can they work with this once it's triggered? What are some tools, and do they also apply to monogamous relationships? Lastly, what are some top tips for navigating both monogamous and non-monogamous relationships?

Kate's journey into non-monogamy kicked off almost 20 years ago when she came home from work and her partner at the time proposed the idea of swinging to her. Since then, she has spent two decades figuring out and exploring what works best for her. Like many, a strict label of "swinger" or "polyamorous" doesn't really seem to fit. As Kate shares, the best label she has found for herself is simply "fluid." We hope you enjoy this deep dive into her personal journey.   Kate Loree, LMFT, is a sex-positive licensed marriage and family therapist with a specialty in non-monogamous, kink, LGBTQ, and sex worker communities and the author of Open Deeply: A Guide to Building Conscious, Compassionate Open Relationships.   In addition to her master's in marriage and family therapy, she also has an MBA and is a registered art therapist (ATR).

Please join us for part two in our series on non-monogamy. This episode is all about self-compassion, but also compassion for our partners within consensual non-monogamous relationships (CNM). So often in Kate's psychotherapy private practice she sees clients pleading for compassion while concurrently not giving it. And yet, its arguable that compassion is even more important than communication skills within CNM relationships given that even the most stellar communicators will have a crash and burn if compassion isn't present. First, we discuss self-compassion and the self-work that needs to take place in order for it to be strong. Healing ego states, building positive affect tolerance, and healing attachment injuries are three areas explored. And then we discuss what blocks us from having compassion for our partners. A few such blocks are 1) the need to win, 2) shame spirals, and 3) catastrophizing. For more on CNM and open relationships, check out Kate's book, Open Deeply: A Guide to Building Conscious, Compassionate Open Relationships which can be purchased wherever books are sold.

Well, we're so excited to chat with you because this book is in many ways very groundbreaking. Now, there are many books, of course, on open relationships, but yours is a little bit different. We're going to get into why. First and foremost, though, I'm curious what motivated you to write this book in the first place. And if you can also talk a little bit about how learning about open relationships can actually be meaningful to people in all relationship arrangements, monogamous folks included. Yes, absolutely. For one, let's just delineate one thing that when you think about monogamous relationships versus non monogamous relationships, non monogamous relationships poke at our unresolved attachment injuries way more than monogamous relationships.

Being a part of community isn't required to practice BDSM, although it may seem like it due to visibility. What is important is knowing the positive and negative ways community influences the kink subculture. Yes, mainstream myths and stereotypes contribute to BDSM stigma, however, misleading info from the community causes harm too. On ep 188 of American Sex, Sunny Megatron & Kate Loree discuss this plus give advice on verifying the validity of educational info, sniffing out gatekeeping and “one twue wayisms,” doing effective gut checks in consent situations, and more. Sunny also discusses the far-reaching implications of overturning Roe vs. Wade & how the Earn It Act ties in.  Guest Bio – Sunny Megatron (Kink-Specific Bio) Sunny began teaching about BDSM in 2010. Her area of expertise is soft skills--which center around things like ethics, cultivating self-awareness, and strategies for effective communication. She received a FROST Certificate of Gratitude in 2020 honoring her service to the kink community, was voted XBIZ Sexpert of the year in 2021, Kinkly's sex blogging superhero in 2017, plus her alternative sexuality focused podcast American Sex won the AASECT podcast award in 2020. Sunny also creates curriculum & teaches about BDSM for sexuality educators, therapists, and care professionals including professional certification courses like the Sexual Health Alliance's Kink Informed Certification Program. Sunny's first book, Customizable Kink: A Strategic Guide to Adult Play is scheduled to be released in 2022.

All relationships are susceptible to hurdles & conflict--resentment, attachment injuries, navigating mental health, unhealthy coping strategies, overcoming societal conditioning, trauma, and more. It's hard enough between 2 people; in polyamory, we have multiple partners to factor in plus unique issues like jealousy and couple's privilege.  On episode 187 of American Sex Podcast, Kate Loree draws from her years as a polyamorous relationship therapist to talk about strategies for compassionate communication, cultivating self-awareness, breaking unhealthy patterns, and reconciling conflict in consensually non-monogamous relationships.

Season two of Open Deeply is all about love that gets pushed into the shadows: kinky love, non-monogamous love, neurodiverse love and more. Since co-host, Kate Loree's book, Open Deeply: A Guide to Building Conscious, Compassionate Open Relationships, is published this month, we thought we would start out this season with a series on non-monogamy. This episode starts out the series. We talk a bit about our non-monogamous back story followed by some basics, such as the different types of non-monogamous relationships. From there we discuss whether it's possible to maintain a hierarchical relationship and how different attachments styles are impacted by non-monogamy. The episode ends with a brief description of Kate's EPIC communication model for non-monogamy. Please join us for this series that will help you on your path to Open Deeply.

On episode 184 of American Sex Podcast, Sunny Megatron & sex-positive therapist, Kate Loree, look at BDSM through an atypical lens. We chat about the misconceptions we worked through as people who stumbled upon kink later in life and how that perspective is helpful now in our careers. We discuss the headspace & strategy needed to tap into the customizable nature of BDSM, plus dive into the science & psychology behind kinky play--why do masochists like suffering? What happens to the body & mind during the altered states of consciousness subspace & topspace? How do people use kink to be more grounded, regulate the nervous system, explore intense emotional states with minimal risk, and more? There's a lot more to BDSM than ropes, paddles, and floggers!
