#71 - Join Alexandra Stockwell, a physician and intimacy marriage expert, and Jackie Melfi, an author, coach, and operator of clubs related to the swingers lifestyle, for a thought-provoking conversation about the role of communication in both monogamous and open relationships. They delve into the importance of a strong emotional connection between partners before exploring an open lifestyle, and emphasize that it should not be an alternative to working on the relationship. Throughout the conversation, the speakers address the misconceptions and stigmas surrounding open relationships, often due to media focus on the sexual aspects. They advocate for seeing open relationships as a spectrum rather than a binary choice, highlighting the importance of conversation, vulnerability, and transparency between partners. Stockwell and Melfi share their perspective on how a healthy open relationship can be rooted in a strong monogamous partnership, with the openness adding an extra dimension.

How do you know if monogamy is right for you? Ever been curious about what it would actually be like to be a swinger, or date other people while still being in a healthy marriage?Jackie was actually married twice, in two traditional, monogamous relationships (with kids), before she connected with John — or, in fact, reconnected with him, since they actually went to high school together.By that point, John was running several clubs for swingers, and Jackie was curious to hear more. She went on a deep dive in researching monogamy, ethical non-monogamy (open relationships), how people "do" swinging and/or other sexual exploration in a way that feels authentic and true to them, and more.The two then built a beautiful relationship based on openness, trust, and true vulnerability.If you've ever wondered how exactly it "works" in a relationship that's more open, where you can play with other people (i.e. have full-on sex or just to be sexual some way), listen to this. According to Jackie and John, it can actually bring you closer, with tremendous personal growth.In particular, when you don't have to cut off that part of you that engages with the spark of life, things get fun and fiery. Flirting, ethical non-monogamy, jealousy, fulfillment, love, and healthy relationships can all coexist, and bring even more joy and magic into your world.Notable quotes from this episode:“I assumed that once I got married, my partner and I would be 100% satisfied.” “Monogamy never really felt like ‘me.'”“If you're able to walk through your fear you become a stronger person — more whole.”“One of the greatest gifts was it allowed me to get in touch with how I viewed myself, how I can grow, how I can feel confident in my relationship.”“We're very conscious of what we do in our relationship. We want both of us to be operating from the best place.”

In this episode listen as Kiley and Susan Wright from NCSF talk Sexual Freedom, FOSTA, Consent and all things NCSF. Susan Wright founded the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom in 1997, and serves as Executive Director. She currently chairs the Consent Counts Committee that worked with the American Law Institute to revise the Model Penal Code on Sexual Assault to create Section 213:10 Explicit Prior Permission for consent to kink. She also chaired NCSF's successful DSM Revision Project which helped result in the consensual paraphilias being separated from the Paraphilic Disorders in the DSM-5 (2013). Susan's research focuses on discrimination and violence against people who practice consensual non-monogamy and kink, with 18 papers published in professional journals. www.ncsfreedom.org There's still time to grab your tickets to some of the hottest Swinger parties in the nation visit my website for more info https://sexyswingerchic.net/Sponsor Links:https://swingersociety.net/https://www.go3fun.co/ad/TK10098https://promescent.com/kileyFor more info on Sexual Freedom Organization's:https://www.woodhullfoundation.org/https://ncsfreedom.org/ Podcasts I talk about:The Swing Nation https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-swing-nation-a-sex-positive-swingers-podcast/id1582945782Front Porch Swingers https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/front-porch-swingers/id1437745759Open Love 101: John and Jackie Melfi https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-openlove101-show/id1475117736Make sure you add my new Instagram https://www.instagram.com/Sexyswingerchic91
