Dr. Joli Hamilton, a relationship coach and research psychologist, discusses her sixteen-year personal journey and twenty-year expertise in non-monogamous relationships. She emphasizes the importance of understanding and managing jealousy, which she terms an "elephant in the room." Joli's doctoral research focused on the archetypal nature of jealousy in polyamorous relationships. She highlights the need for self-awareness, communication, and community support in navigating these complex dynamics.

Joli's "Year of Opening" program, which she co-leads with her husband, helps couples and individuals explore and develop their relationships through a year-long educational process. She also offers resources like the "Jealousy Roadmap" and her podcast, "Playing with Fire," to provide guidance and support.

Anyone should be able to rewrite their sexual script and story if they so desire. Lauren Rogers, a certified holistic sexuality educator, discusses her journey from a strict religious upbringing to becoming an empowered sexuality coach. She emphasizes the importance of rewriting one's sexual story and overcoming sex-negative beliefs. Lauren shares her method of helping clients reconnect with their pleasure through active imagination exercises and solo sex practices. She highlights the role of guilt and shame in sexual dissatisfaction and the need for compassion and curiosity in healing. Lauren also discusses the broader impact of individual sexual healing on communities and families, advocating for a holistic approach to sexual health.

Sarah Rose Bright and Graeme Waterfield, a couple of over seven years, discuss their approach to "making love" as a transformative practice for deeper intimacy and pleasure. Sarah, a love, sex, and intimacy coach, and Graeme, a tai chi and meditation teacher, emphasize the importance of conscious, mindful sex over performance-based intercourse.

They highlight the benefits of this approach, including better connection, pleasure, and overcoming issues like menopause-related pain. They suggest practices like self-pleasure, breathing exercises, and open communication to enhance sexual experiences. They also mention their upcoming retreats and online classes for couples to explore these techniques further.
