'What If We Opened Our Relationship?”: The Conversation We’ve Never Shared—Until Now 6s5bk

In this raw and deeply honest episode, Lauren and Trey open up about a conversation they’ve never shared publicly before—one that rocked the foundation of their partnership. At minute 06:49, you’ll hear Trey’s exact words at the bar: “What would it look like if we opened our relationship?” What followed was a weekend of intense reflection, body-based reactions, and tender reckoning. Lauren, a professional sexuality educator and relationship coach, shares the real-time emotional and physical impact of that moment—not the polished version, but the full, human one. At 10:29, she reveals just how vulnerable it felt to speak from her truth, not her title. They discuss how sex can become currency in relationships, the concept of “creative monogamy,” and the invaluable tools they've learned from Dr. Joli Hamilton. Trey reflects on his own missteps and the fear beneath his desire, while Lauren wonders aloud if it might be easier to live alone. Together, they explore: ✨ What it means to choose partnership when it doesn’t give you everything you want ✨ How “ugly journaling,” vibrational alignment, and Human Design can deep repair ✨ What full-bodied honesty looks like—even when it’s messy This episode is tender, complex, and full of grey. It’s for anyone navigating modern love, boundaries, and the courage it takes to grow together—without losing yourself. 💬 Considering opening your relationship—or navigating the complexities of one that already is?
