Episode Summary
This podcast episode delves into the intricate topic of deconstructing monogamy. We engage in a profound exploration of diverse relationship structures. Our conversation centres on the societal norms surrounding monogamy, particularly within high-control faith contexts. A well as the implications these norms have on individual identity and relational dynamics. The episode not only illuminates the challenges faced by individuals questioning traditional relationship models but also highlights the potential for growth and self-discovery. We advocate for open dialogue and the importance of understanding the values that underpin our relational choices.
