In this episode, we sit down with Desireé B. Stephens, an educator, counselor, and community builder whose work centers on liberation through decolonization and whole-self healing.
Desireé shares her journey of engaging in consensual non-monogamy during her early dating life and first marriage at 19, long before she had the language for it. While her husband dated and had sex with others, she remained sexually monogamous, an experience that shaped her later understanding of polyamory and relationship anarchy. We also explore how her liberation work intersects with her practice of polyamory and what it means to navigate love, sex, and freedom on her own terms.
