This week's guest is mental health professional Kathy Labriola. Kathy shares her insight on a very potent and timely topic for society as a whole – relationship agreements, polyamory, and jealousy.
Kathy breaks down the difference between jealousy, envy and coveting to help us understand the subtle energetic difference and the behavioral manifestations of these three emotional states.
She also helps us understand the range of different approaches to polyamory, and how our needs in relationship stem from our traumas.
Kathy also encourages those of us who prefer monogamy to explore more openness and allowance of love in our partner's lives.
