Is non-monogamy really the higher path to spiritual awakening—or just another way to avoid commitment? Lately, I've been watching a growing trend in the spiritual and wellness world that claims non-monogamy is a sign of higher consciousness, an enlightened way of loving that transcends the old, tired ideas of monogamy. Yet, so often, when spirituality merges with social media influence and unchecked ego, it becomes a smokescreen that leaves women doubting their own desires and boundaries.  Join me as I pull back the veil and invite you to remember that your boundaries, your voice, and your choice matter deeply. You don't owe your evolution to anyone else's journey. As a woman who has been married for 28 years, I have explored these questions in my own relationship. I share honestly why I have chosen monogamy as my personal path—not out of rigidity, but because of the power and spiritual growth that comes from meeting yourself again and again with the same partner. And beyond my story, we talk about how this trend often leaves women with nothing but confusion, deep wounds, and a longing to be chosen. In this episode, we explore: The cultural narrative that non-monogamy is an evolved spiritual path Why women are so often the ones “going along” to please a partner, despite feeling the sting of not being chosen The power of monogamy to reveal every hidden part of yourself—and how that is its own sacred spiritual practice The way our bodies speak up when we are in situations that don't feel safe or aligned How to honor your own desires, even when they don't fit the latest trend or influencer narrative The critical difference between choosing from power and abandoning yourself in the name of someone else's idea of expansion Building a foundation of self-love as the deepest trust you can offer yourself If it resonates, please share it with another woman who might need this perspective today.

In this powerful episode of Three Shades Deeper, we sit down with the incomparable Cindy Gallop—advertising icon, entrepreneur, and founder of the groundbreaking platform MakeLoveNotPorn (https://makelovenotporn.tv). Known for speaking boldly about sex, Cindy shares how she “accidentally” got into porn—not the industry, but the mission to revolutionize how we think about it. Dating younger men led Cindy to discover a troubling gap between porn fantasy and real-world sex.

We dive into:     •    Cindy's origin story and what inspired her to create a sex-positive business     •    The disconnect between mainstream porn and intimate reality     •    The role of MakeLoveNotPorn in normalizing open conversations around sex     •    How we can all be part of changing the narrative This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about sextech, intimacy, and reshaping the way we talk about sex in the digital age.

When we open our relationships, we often focus on creating boundaries and agreements around emotions, time, and sex. But there's another crucial element that frequently gets overlooked (until it becomes a problem): money. How we handle finances in our relationships can reveal deep-seated values, trigger old wounds, and create unexpected power dynamics—especially when we start dating outside our established partnerships.The financial aspects of non-monogamy touch on some of our most vulnerable places. They can bring up childhood patterns, highlight privilege differences, and force us to examine our relationship with capitalism itself. While these conversations might feel uncomfortable, they're essential for building healthy relationships with clear expectations and boundaries. Money conversations in non-monogamy can be terrifying—but avoiding them is worse!In this episode, we talk about:— Why money conversations are often avoided until they become painful problems— How our personal money histories shape our approach to finances in relationships (including childhood experiences with scarcity or abundance)— The practical questions that arise when dating: What counts as a "date expense"? Who pays? How do we handle financial disparities?— Why separate accounts can be helpful for financial differentiation in non-monogamy— The challenge of funding separate accounts when income disparities exist between partners— How dating expenses can reveal our values and trigger judgments about what's "worth" spending on— The way money intersects with other resources like time, emotional labor, and childcare responsibilities— Why regular money check-ins are crucial as relationships evolve and circumstances change— How money conversations can actually build intimacy when approached with curiosity and compassion— The importance of allowing partners to change over time and not assuming their financial values remain static— Why examining privilege and socioeconomic differences can be both challenging and a way to deeply connectResources mentioned in this episode:— Imago dialogue as a tool for difficult conversationsJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & support.

Co-Host Adam Darrow (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/risk) My first-time guest Adam Darrow has always been a thrill-seeking risk taker. Early on, that meant participating in extreme sports, of course. But not until he met ONE woman in particular did he ever consider dating and relating to women an extreme sport unto itself. She made it very clear that she was not the kind of woman who wanted to settle down with one man. That led to a path of sexual discovery for Adam that would make Mickey Rourke's character in 9 1/2 Weeks jealous. So who was this woman, and what made her so tantalizingly different? And how did Adam's response to her--and what she offered--differ from most guys who might dream about finding a chick and getting into 'The Lifestyle' with her? When Adam's new girlfriend was quite public about their non-monogamous relationship, how did Adam's family and friends respond? And did he care? How did this new relationship affect his masculinity? Well, given they got married and stayed together for over ten years, you can already sense how amazing the story of this adventure is going to get. What happened when Adam entered the 'underground' sex society of New York City, and what was that like? Were there any pitfalls or was it all pleasure? How did Adam feel about sharing his girl with other men...even in real time? Is desiring and living such a lifestyle a matter of nature or nurture? And is there such thing as 'cheating' is a completely open relationship? Is monogamous intimacy overrated? Can you go back to monogamy after extreme non-monogamy, even if you want to? Ultimately, would Adam recommend a non-monogamous lifestyle? These are some powerful questions amidst one of the most shocking episodes in recent memory, but it all made for a great episode.
