#22 Pod Pod Meat Flask (Coming Out)

Summary

We, the Pod, discuss coming out as non-monogamous (specifically polyamorous, since that is our wheel-house) and kinky to medical professionals, friends, co-workers, and family. We discuss not only the differences in the emotional impact it can have on someone coming out, but on the person to whom one reveals personal information. PS, find out why you should NOT come out at work!

If you’ve followed this journey, maybe you’ve heard some of this before. Or HAVE you? We’ll never tell. Chastain is a relationship coach who has worked with individuals on plans to come out to friends and family as non-monogamous. She shares her best practice hopes for all.

Happy Holidays from the Pod.
