In this profoundly honest episode of The Sanctuary, host Israel sits down with Danielle, the creator behind the popular platform Openly Committed. Danielle pulls back the curtain on her long-term polyamorous journey with her husband, from the first two years of trial and error to navigating parenthood, perimenopause, and the emotional challenge of telling her conservative Texan parents.
She gets raw about the realities that often get glossed over, sharing why she rarely feels "compersion," why she and her husband abandoned the "veto" power, and how their communication has had to evolve through every life stage. This is a masterclass in the practicalities and emotions of ethical non-monogamy, filled with hard-won wisdom for anyone curious about relationships of any kind.
