Hi! My name is Radiant Rebecca. I'm a polyamorous woman (aka an ethical slut), a courtesan, and a tango dancer. I love to make people blush. Especially if it makes them think! This podcast is about love. And my love life. And my … um, sex life. In each episode, you will hear me in rich, intimate, brainy conversations with my partners, lovers, and curious friends. We will share with you, often in real-time, how we navigate relationship transitions and jealousy, fighting nicely, practice partnership, communicate consciously about sex, money, and more. Expect big chunks of useful information and science geekery, a lot of inspiration, and a dash of magic on top… and of course, lots of talk about pleasure and its manifestations! I believe that TRUE pleasure improves us, and I aim to follow true pleasure wherever it leads. I'm not always right. But I'm always enjoying myself! Care to join me?

How you Love is Enough Part 1
RATED R: Language & Sex
Rebecca introduces her new partner, Josh. In this intimate conversation, they share details about their relationship and how they navigate polyamory, freedom and the need for a nesting partnership. They want to illustrate the concept of ‘how you love someone is enough’. This implies that you should not try to be more for your partner than you’re willing to give and they’re willing to receive.
Think about this:
- Don’t underestimate the power of negotiation within a relationship: “What are we willing to be for each other?” “What are our limits?”
- Be open about what you need early on in your relationship.
- What does equality within a partnership mean to you?
- What does it mean to find a new sense of self-esteem through your brokenness? (in reference to songs Rebecca and Josh talk about - Listen here).
- Giving your partner the freedom to explore shows that you care that they are happy.
