In this episode I peel back the layers of what non-monogamy is and how I came into this journey many years ago. The 50th episode, I felt, was the perfect time to get a little more vulnerable and talk about how radical of a shift non-monogamy is once it's "on the table". It not only opened my eyes to a world where you aren't punished for expressing your desires, but fueled my curiosity to explore what a relationship could be defined as. This isn't just having your cake and eating it too, but a new way of relating to one another and finding multiple ways of getting your needs met while remaining sovereign.

So I wanted to say THANK YOU for listening to the podcast and reading this description; I hope you're having as much fun as I am. After 50 episodes, I'm going to be taking a bit of a hiatus from the podcast to hibernate (in a manor of speaking) to focus on my life direction and the direction of this podcast to perhaps include guests, among other changes, so I hope you'll join me for that.

Anyway, I hope you have enjoyed these last 50 episodes and look forward to another 50, maybe...we'll see.

Until next time...

This episode is for anyone who is on the same fabulous journey of exploring non-monogamy.

In this episode of The Sovereign Heart Podcast, I am joined by my partner Keegan for a late-night conversation recorded as thunderstorms rolled in — with our microphone jerry-rigged to a spatula and hearts wide open.

Together, we explore how the rise of non-monogamy is deeply intertwined with the digital age, what it means to detox from domination-based love scripts, and why this relational shift may be part of the broader ascension process. With tenderness, humor, and depth, we unpack what it means to love from sovereignty — not obligation.

In this episode, we explore:

✨ How social media is expanding the collective imagination around non-monogamy

✨ The difference between being “good at” relationships vs. being honest about capacity

✨ Detoxing from old-world religions, media programming, and performance-based love

✨ Building relationships from desire rather than default

✨ Non-monogamy as a rewilding of the heart — not a rejection of intimacy, but a return to it

This episode is for anyone who senses that love is evolving — and wants to evolve with it.

Today’s episode is a reminder and a reclamation: feeling good is your birthright. Not some fluke or privilege reserved for a lucky few—it's something we get to practice, consciously, every day. Whether you're naturally joyful or have to work for every breath of peace, the truth remains: you can build a reputation with yourself that says, I know how to return to feeling good. This episode weaves in teachings from The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem by Nathaniel Branden and walks you through a simple but powerful practice I call the High Vibe Bracelet. It’s a somatic way to track your emotional states and consciously shift back into joy, contentment, or even just neutral. This episode offers a bunch of tools—from water breath to walking meditations to co-regulation—to help you return to presence when life knocks you off center. We also delve deep about what happens when we start to feel good and our old patterns fight back. So if you’re ready to build emotional self-trust, and create relationships where pleasure is the baseline, not the exception—this episode is your invitation.

In this episode of The Sovereign Heart Podcast, we dive into the often unspoken shadow side of conscious relationships—the moment when all of our beautiful tools, frameworks, and psychological insight start to get in the way of actual connection. If you’ve ever found yourself becoming the “secure attachment hall monitor” or the “I-statement police,” this one’s for you. Our devotion to doing relationship “right” can become its own trap—turning real-time intimacy into a checklist and pathologizing genuine human moments through the lens of theory.

I’ve been there. I’ve done it. And what I’ve learned is that self-awareness is not the same as self-actualization. So, this episode offers a gentle, embodied practice to tune into your relational heart wisdom—a place beyond all the tools and labels, where you can ask your own heart how to move forward. Because at the end of the day, the truest guidance won’t come from a book or a podcast (even mine), but from the living, beating genius inside your chest.

In this episode, I’m getting real about parts work, a game-changing practice straight out of Jungian psychology and badass modalities like Internal Family Systems and Gestalt (Gesh-tall-t) therapy. It’s all about embracing the dazzling inner constellation of sub-personalities—you know, that part that’s all-in for love, wrestling with the part that’s side-eyeing trust. I’ve learned there’s no "broken" in anyone, just a vibrant mosaic of emotions, roles, and wisdom. Whether you're chatting with your inner child, feeling the vibes in your low belly, or switching chairs to embody your parts, I’m on a mission to help you integrate every piece of you, unleash your true self, and dance your way to wholeness. So, come vibe with me and let’s unlock the magic of our sovereign hearts together!

In this episode of the Sovereign Heart Podcast, we dive into the essence of embodied leadership. We challenge the idea that leadership hinges on extensive certifications or external validation, focusing instead on the strength of leading from an authentic, internal space.

We define embodied leadership as our collective courage to bring our inner practices, values, and lived experiences into any leadership role, whether guiding one person or a large group. Sharing stories, like when we set clear boundaries or express ourselves freely, which inspire others and reinforce our leadership approach.

We encourage each other to embrace our unique leadership archetype, trust our intuitive wisdom, and honor our life’s journey as a source of authority, rather than relying solely on formal training. I believe this perspective unlocks a deeper, more authentic form of leadership that resonates powerfully with those around us.

Welcome to the Sovereign Heart Podcast. In today's episode, we explore the concept of integrity as the new currency in relationships and personal interactions. We discuss how societal values are shifting from traditional, transactional views of relationships—focused on security and material exchange—toward a paradigm where integrity, defined as a state of wholeness and authenticity, is becoming the most valuable asset.

This shift reflects a move away from relationships based on necessity to ones rooted in desire for genuine connection, love, and personal fulfillment. It's my belief that maintaining integrity, especially while navigating polyamory or non-monogamy, requires radical honesty with oneself and others, coupled with skillful communication to express truths effectively and kindly.

For instance, someone asked about when to disclose polyamory in dating, suggesting there’s no perfect moment, but honesty about one’s desires and capacity, paired with discernment, fosters relationships aligned with personal integrity.

I encourage you to cultivate your own "integrity code" to guide your relational and life choices in this evolving landscape.
