Episode Description
"Dr. Marcin Bela and I were married in 2017, our relationship was Polyamorous from the beginning. People often ask, why even get married then? Well, there is a lot more to marriage than sharing sex with only one person till death. Relationships of all kinds, whether intimate or business, platonic or it's complicated, have various dynamics with twists and turns. Ideally, in relationships, we keep growing and change as individuals. So, how can you be in the same relationship dynamic if you are a different person? This is where most relationships "hit the wall". Expecting a change in your partner, figuring about how that shifts the way you relate to each other, is (in my experience) often messy. It is the consistent rebirth of what you think you know about this person and yourself. That can be super scary, after all, don't we get sold into relationships to have stability and control over some things, like not worrying if your partner is fucken someone else. What I and my darling husband Marcin have come to realize is that the illusion of control isn't just some cliche prayer about surrendering, it is a gift between you and the divine alignment. This is part 2 of the double episode on the ways we are redefining and refining our connection. Hear how we went from Hierarchy to Anarchy. Thank you for welcoming my honored guest and incredible husband, Dr. Marcin Bela to get unbuckled
