Rachel Krantz, the author of Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation, and Non-monogamy joins us as we continue the discussion from the previous episode about grooming in the kink scene. However, in this episode, we broaden the conversation by including non-monogamy and we deepen it by exploring Rachel's first- hand experience with it. In the past, all three of us, Rachel, Sunny and myself, have been in kink and/or non-monogamous relationships that we came to realize had some toxic patterns of manipulation, grooming, gas lighting, etc. in them. Often such relationships are mixed with amazing highs that keep one hooked and brutal lows that leave one crushed. It is our hope that listeners who are currently in such relationships or healing from one might benefit from the insights in this episode. We start in the thick of it…that time when Rachel was immersed in such a relationship, including the strong emotional tidal pulls that are make such a relationship addictive, sexy, intoxicating, but deeply torturous. And then we can move to the first few years after getting free, followed by where Rachel finds herself now and finally, who she wants to become. Perhaps in doing so, the three of us can provide a road map, some coping tools, or at least some hope for someone who feels lost in this pattern within kink and/or non-monogamy. We hope that you join us for this vulnerable, bold and honest episode as once again, we dare to open deeply.

Coming into queerness later in life. Kink dynamics. Going from monogamy to non monogamy. Abusive relationships. Sex parties & beyond.All of that, and so much more, is explored in Rachel Krantz's book: Open, and I'm not lying when I tell you I devoured this book in the span of 24 hours and immediately reached out to have Rachel (she/her) on the podcast to get into the nitty gritty of it all — and this conversation does not disappoint. TW: emotional & psychological abuse, manipulation, gaslighting & self gaslighting, power dynamicsIf you're unfamiliar with Rachel's work — she's a journalist and one of the founding editors of Bustle, where she served as senior features editor for three years. Her work has been featured on NPR, The Guardian, Vox, Vice, and many other outlets. She's the recipient of the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award, the Investigative Reporters and Editors Radio Award, the Edward R. Murrow Award, and the Peabody Award for her work as an investigative reporter with YR Media. Open is her first book.And I imagine not her last — or at least, I certainly hope not ‘cause damn, it's pretty fucking incredible, and from a personally selfish perspective, so damn refreshing to have a first person, tell all memoir around the rollercoaster that is navigating the early days of queer liberation and non monogamy. I know so many of you have been waiting for this episode so let's get the fuck to it.CONNECT WITH RACHEL / READ OPEN:Snag your copy of Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation, and Non-Monogamy Rachels Website | Instagram | TwitterLook out for Rachels future podcast: Help Existing ADDITIONAL RESOURCES MENTIONED:Donate/Support to Abortion Funds Sign petition to defend Roe V.

When Rachel Krantz met and fell for Adam, he told her that he was looking for a committed partnership—just one that did not include exclusivity. In her nonfiction debut, Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation, and Non-Monogamy, Krantz explores these questions with an unflinching eye and page-turning storytelling, tracing her search to understand what non-monogamy would do to her heart, her mind, and her life through interviews with scientists, psychologists, and people living and loving outside the mainstream. For the book's virtual launch, Krantz joined us along with Jen Winston, author of Greedy, for a frank and heartfelt conversation on non-monogamy, bisexuality, “stigmatization, feeling too much yet not enough of an identity, and struggling through the accidental poetry of everyday life” (--K., Greenlight event host)--and a resounding reminder to write the book you need to write. (Recorded January 25, 2022)
In this episode I speak with Rachel Krantz, former editor at Bustle and Author of the book Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation and Non-Monogamy. Her book is both a cautionary tale about gaslighting and manipulation and a story about the lessons and fun experiences that being open can bring. We talk about the red flags that might indicate you are being manipulated and discuss why often times partners are not even aware that they are being abusive. We chat about jealousy, swingers, and submissive dominant dynamics. Lastly, Rachel tells us her reasons to still be non-monogamous and how she learned ethical non-monogamy. ------ Rachel's Book: Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation and Non-Monogamy - https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/646533/open-by-rachel-krantz/?ref=PRH59CEBDB9B4&aid=20973&linkid=PRH59CEBDB9B4 Love In Abundance by Kathy Labriola Multiamory Podcast

Non Monogamy. Polyamory. Swinging. Multiple partners. Sex parties. Commitment versus autonomy. These are all terms that we have heard, whispered and wondered about and maybe even integrated into our own personal lives. Guest Rachel Krantz lives a life that turns the social constructs of sex, love and relationships on their virtual heads. In her Memoir, "Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation and Non Monogamy," Rachel tells a vulnerable story of her own experiences with Non Monogamy and it's many facets-- both good and bad. Rachel answers the questions of living honestly, boundaries, safety, love, jealousy and how to navigate non monogamous, intimate relationships. Her account and stories give light to a lifestyle and choice that many don't understand or perhaps don't accept, and her journey of finding the balance between freedom and painful imprisonment. This is a provocative episode that will challenge how one thinks about the "norm" of committed relationships and intimacy. Follow us on Instagram @shesa10times5

Normalizing Non-Monogamy - Interviews in Polyamory and Swinging
Rachel started exploring non-monogamy in 2015 when she was in her late twenties and her boyfriend brought it up. Initially, they went down the hotwife path but through those experiences she realized she was seeking deeper connections. Over the last few years she has been exploring what it is she wants from non-monogamy and how to make it a reality. We have great conversations about confronting jealously from both sides (being the one who is jealous and being the one who is inducing it in a partner), sexual health, and going after what you want in life. It is a beautiful interview and we hope you enjoy it. Rachel is also the author of the newly released book called Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation, and Non-Monogamy.

On this episode I welcome award winning journalist and one of the founding editors of Bustle, Rachel Krantz. Rachel is the author of “Open: An Uncensored Memoir of Love, Liberation, and Non-Monogamy.” The Los Angeles Times, Electric Lit calls “Open” one of the most anticipated books of 2022. In our interview, Rachel shares her very titillating and compelling odyssey into the world of non-monogamy. She talks about sex parties and learning to embrace her bi-sexuality. I was riveted by Rachel's stories of ecstasy, jealousy, manipulation and betrayal. Even if you're the most binary, monogamous, marry-or-die type person on the planet — you can't walk away from this interview without challenging some of your own long held convictions about monogamous relationships.
