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 2
RATED R: Language & Sex
How did Rebecca meet Josh? Following Part 1, an intimate moment between Rebecca and her new partner Josh, Shawn joins the conversation. Going into the details of how their relationship developed, they explore the concept of how you love is enough. What you have to offer in a relationship is more important than societal and religious precepts of what a romantic partner should be.
Think about this:
- You don’t have to force yourself to have more space for someone and try to be everything to them.
- We can only be as open-hearted as we can. We can only give as much as we can give.
- Accepting how much we can give to others at this moment is self-love. Communicating that to them is an incredible partnership move.
- The right person for you is the one who recognizes how you love is enough.
- Recognizing that ‘how much love we can give right now is MORE than enough’ will increase our willingness to engage and increase our sense of self-worth.
- Have you come to terms with what you can offer your partner?
- Porn makes us believe that what looks good feels good, but what feels good for us usually feels good for our partners.
- Look to what feels good for you first and that will most likely feel good for your partner as well.
