Dan and I are hosting a joint fireside
Finally you'll meet Dan and see that I was not lying about the whole thing 😂
You know what occurs to me is that I could have totally been lying about the whole thing. Like, you have never met Dan. (At least most of you)
So I could have totally made up the whole thing about opening up our marriage.
Even the podcast episodes, that whole thing could have been AI-generated or something. (Though it is very unlikely because I don’t even know how to edit a podcast episode. 😂)
But in all seriousness, Dan and I have gone on a journey. Not just in our opening of our marriage but also in terms of showing up in public.
He has always been a more private person, and I have been the social media slut wanting to broadcast all our shit and talk about how interesting I am. I am literally the ultimate pick me girl that everybody makes fun of. 🤣
But as we continue on in our journey, he has become a more avid advocate of my work online. Having gone through the process on our own and how difficult it was for us to go through the work on our own, he has become an even safer space for me to feel like my work matters.
A year ago, I could not have even imagined him being such an active part of my work, my advocacy, and my business. And how he’s become more of a supporter than ever. I would have laughed at you if you had told me a year ago that this was gonna happen.
But here we are.
We are now more in love than ever, holding each other’s hands tighter than ever, building a bigger community more than ever.
And we want to share with you what we can in the short span of 90 minutes.
We have no interest in telling you any “how-to’s.” We are more interested in sharing questions that were helpful for us to inquire what is really going on with us.
We are most interested in and invested in facilitating each of us arriving at answers that feel most endemic to us.
Here are some things we want to talk about:
What was it like when we first started talking about opening up our marriage?
What were the strongest emotions that came up for us, and what kind of information did we excavate from them?
How did we use conflict to bring us closer together?
Where did we take responsibility for our own experiences, and where did we make ourselves available for the other?
What were the most challenging parts of opening up?
How does our marriage look like now?
…and any other questions you’d like to bring. In fact, your questions are the ones we are most excited about.
I don’t like that we aren’t talking about what is really going on in our marriages because the way we relate to the people closest to us is at the epicenter of how we relate to one another at every level in our lives and in the world.
I find it to be an injustice that we are suffering so much in private. Not knowing how to relate through difference and conflict.
Honoring our truth shouldn’t be this hard.
Upholding our dignity shouldn’t be this hard.
We change this one conversation at a time, with what we can, where we are.
Join us to be part of this conversation.
Pull up a chair, bring all of our curiosities and wonder, and don’t forget to grab a late night snack.
