In this eye-opening episode of Poly Pathways, hosts Kat and Doc tackle the elephant in the room for many considering polyamory: jealousy and envy. They dive deep into the differences between these emotions and why they're not unique to polyamorous relationships. The hosts share personal stories and insights, debunking common misconceptions about jealousy in non-monogamous relationships.
Kat and Doc explore how monogamy often allows people to avoid confronting jealous feelings, while polyamory encourages facing these emotions head-on. They discuss the fear-based nature of jealousy and how it relates to seeking safety in relationships. The hosts also touch on how jealousy can manifest in unexpected ways, as illustrated by Doc's camping story and Kat's experience with her boyfriend's profession.
Listeners will gain valuable insights into managing jealousy and envy in all types of relationships. The hosts emphasize that feeling jealous doesn't make you "bad at poly" and offer a teaser for strategies to work through these challenging emotions in the second half of the episode. Whether you're polyamorous, monogamous, or somewhere in between, this episode provides a fresh perspective on dealing with the green-eyed monster.
