#ThroupleTalk #WomenInThrouples #RelationshipRetreat #LGBTQCommunity

In a throuple, the strength of each 1-on-1 relationship (aka, “dyad”) will make or break the relationship. We are Char, Josh, and Liv, a throuple that lives together and is raising kids together. In this episode, we share how we have learned to make space for the individual dyads within our polyamorous triad. From discussing the practical logistics of how we make time for each relationship (arranging childcare, sharing calendars, etc.) to how we address challenges such as jealousy and FOMO, we hope this conversation is helpful for any poly family that wants to make sure each relationship thrives and experiences more fulfillment, support, and compersion!
