Live Your F*ck Yes Life

You loved her the last time she was here and she’s BACK! Gabrielle Stone (she/her), a fan favorite on the Live Your F*ck Yes Life podcast, makes no secret about her past with toxic relationships & a cheating MF of an ex husband. And she’s shared it all in her best selling books and on her podcast and beyond. I’ve been having a lot of conversations in my DMs and with friends about the expectations and needs we place on our partners and, given that I am polyamorous and inherently bring that bias and lens to any conversation around relationships, I wanted to bring on someone who consciously chooses monogamy to have this conversation with and knew that Gabrielle was the gal to call upon. Things we talk about on this episode: conversations we’ve had with our friends around the important things in relationships our shared need to be seen, loved and championed for who we are how societal norms have informed our paths in relationship dynamics & choices the importance of communication the BS narrative that healing can only happen when we’re single the lessons we can take from the relationships we’ve had and have the idea “soulmate” or “the one” Amanda’s constellation way of viewing her relationships the needs & expectations we have in our romantic partnerships
