			<description><![CDATA[It’s been a while, but WE ARE BACK!!<br /><br />The ENM DNM looks a little different now. It’s just the two of us, Adam and Leonie, which brings a new format, a new energy, and a bit more space to let the conversation go where it naturally wants to.<br /><br />In this episode, we reintroduce ourselves, reflect on what’s changed since the last run of episodes, and talk about what this next chapter of the podcast is going to look like.<br /><br />We unpack why we’re doing this, what kind of conversations we want to have, and why this podcast has never been about pretending to be experts or handing out gold stars for “doing ENM right”.<br /><br />From here on, this podcast is about honest conversations, lived experience, the messy bits, the funny bits, and creating a space where people can feel a little more seen in the realities of non-monogamy.<br /><br />Loved the episode?

It’s just the two of us, Adam and Leonie, which brings a new format, a new energy, and a bit more space to let the conversation go where it naturally wants to.<br /><br />In this episode, we reintroduce ourselves, reflect on what’s changed since the last run of episodes, and talk about what this next chapter of the podcast is going to look like.<br /><br />We unpack why we’re doing this, what kind of conversations we want to have, and why this podcast has never been about pretending to be experts or handing out gold stars for “doing ENM right”.<br /><br />From here on, this podcast is about honest conversations, lived experience, the messy bits, the funny bits, and creating a space where people can feel a little more seen in the realities of non-monogamy.<br /><br />Loved the episode?

			<description><![CDATA[<b>Episode 6: The Good, The Bad, and The Fugly </b><br /><br />From cute friend dates to chaotic sex parties, we’re ending Season 1 with our wildest, weirdest, and most heartfelt dating stories. In this final episode of the season, we swap stories from the frontlines of dating while ethically non-monogamous — the good, the bad, and the downright fugly. We reflect on what counts as a date in ENM, how online dating compares to meeting people in community, and the beautiful chaos of navigating sex parties, group dynamics, and slow-burn connections. There’s vulnerability, laughter, and a lot of honest talk about what it’s really like to date, connect, and grow while living non-monogamously. What We Talk About:<br /><ul><li>Dating while polyamorous and ethically non-monogamous</li><li>Why some of the best dates are platonic</li><li>Online dating red flags and bios that make us swipe away</li><li>First-time sex party nerves (and snacks)</li><li>The pressure (or not) at ENM social events</li><li>How community-based connections feel safer and more authentic</li><li>One piece of advice we’d give to anyone starting out in ENM</li></ul><b>Mentioned in This Episode:</b><br /><ul><li><a href="https://ko-fi.com/enmdnm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ko-fi.com/enmdnm</a> – Support the pod and help fund free therapy and support groups</li><li>The E&amp;M DNM Discord – connect, learn, and share in a supportive space (access via Ko-Fi)</li></ul><b>Love what you hear?</b><br /><ul><li>Follow, review, and support the pod over on Ko-fi — every little bit helps us fund free and subsidised therapy and support groups for ENM folks.</li><li>Join our Discord to connect with other non-monogamous, queer, and curious humans from all walks of life.</li></ul>And stay tuned — we’ll be back with Season 2 soon. Thanks for joining us in this honest conversation about ethical non-monogamy, queer identity, dating, friendship, and community. <b></b><br /><br />Loved the episode?

			<description><![CDATA[<b>Episode 4: Families, Friends, and the (Mono) World</b><br /><br />World What happens when you’re living ethically non-monogamous — but your friends, family, or workplace aren’t? In this episode, we unpack the messy, beautiful, and often awkward moments of coming out in a monogamous world. We talk about the choices we make around who to tell, how we tell them, and why some of us don’t tell anyone at all. From religious upbringings and conservative families to tricky friendship dynamics and professional boundaries, this episode dives into the real-life impact of being ENM in spaces that might not understand it. Whether you’re fully out, quietly navigating disclosure, or somewhere in between, this conversation holds space for it all — with vulnerability, reflection, and a little bit of sass. What We Talk About:<br /><ul><li>Coming out as ethically non-monogamous to friends, family, and colleagues</li><li>Navigating disclosure in conservative or religious families</li><li>Balancing identity, safety, and authenticity in the workplace</li><li>Friendship shifts, chosen family, and community support</li><li>How queer identity, culture, and values shape ENM disclosure</li><li>The emotional labour of educating others about ethical non-monogamy</li></ul><b>Mentioned in This Episode:</b><br /><ul><li><a href="https://ko-fi.com/enmdnm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ko-fi.com/enmdnm</a> – Support the pod and join our private community</li><li>Polysecure (book)</li><li>The E&amp;M DNM Discord – connect, learn, and share in a supportive space (accessible via the Ko-Fi link)</li></ul><br /><b>Love what you hear?</b><br /><ul><li>Follow, rate, and review the podcast — it really helps more people find us.</li><li>Support us and access our private Discord via Ko-fi.</li></ul>Next up: we're diving into dating stories — the good, the bad, and the fugly.

			<description><![CDATA[<b>Episode 3: Intersectionality and ENM</b><br /><b></b><br />What happens when your queerness, culture, neurodivergence, and upbringing all collide with ethical non-monogamy? We’re talking about the beautiful mess that is intersectionality. In this episode, we explore how identity shapes the way we show up in ethical non-monogamy (ENM). From growing up in religious households or navigating white privilege to being queer, neurodivergent, or culturally “othered,” we get real about how our histories affect our desires, relationships, and sense of belonging in polyamorous and open relationship spaces. This is one for anyone who's ever wondered, "Am I doing this right?" or "Is it just me?"

			<description><![CDATA[<b>Episode 2: Initial Struggles with ENM</b><br /><br />Starting out in ethical non-monogamy can feel like learning to walk on a tightrope—in the dark, with no map. We’ve been there. <br /><br /><b>What we talk about in this episode:</b><br /><br />In this episode, we get real about the messy, confusing, and sometimes magical first six months of navigating ethical non-monogamy (ENM). From awkward first dates and emotional overwhelm to finding community and unlearning monogamy norms, we share the stuff people don’t always talk about. Whether you’re newly polyamorous, deep in open relationships, or just curious about relationship structures outside the mainstream, this one’s for you. What We Talk About:<br /><ul><li>Our first steps into ethical non-monogamy (ENM) and polyamory</li><li>Where we looked for information, advice, and emotional support</li><li>Early emotional challenges like jealousy, insecurity, and loneliness</li><li>The cultural and queer identity layers that shaped our experiences</li><li>How support groups, dating apps, and community events helped (or didn’t)</li><li>Good advice, bad advice, and everything in between</li><li>Personal reflections, resilience, and learning to sit with discomfort</li><li>What we wish we’d known when we were starting out in ENM</li></ul><b>Mentioned in This Episode:</b><br /><ul><li><a href="https://ko-fi.com/enmdnm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ko-fi.com/enmdnm</a></li><li><a href="https://yarnn.au" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">yarnn.au</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/polyphiliablog?igsh=Y2VhbW5neGd5c3E0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Poly Phelia Instagram</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/shrimpteeth?igsh=dGI5MmR5ZXV5amVw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shrimp Teeth Instagram </a></li><li>The Ethical Slut (book)<a href="https://www.instagram.com/_enterthedragon_?igsh=c3oyaWF1cXI5OHBm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a></li></ul><b>Love what you hear?</b><br /><ul><li>If this episode resonated with you, give us a follow, leave a review, or support the pod on Ko-fi.</li><li>Want to keep the conversation going?

			<itunes:summary><![CDATA[<b>Episode 2: Initial Struggles with ENM</b><br /><br />Starting out in ethical non-monogamy can feel like learning to walk on a tightrope—in the dark, with no map. We’ve been there. <br /><br /><b>What we talk about in this episode:</b><br /><br />In this episode, we get real about the messy, confusing, and sometimes magical first six months of navigating ethical non-monogamy (ENM). From awkward first dates and emotional overwhelm to finding community and unlearning monogamy norms, we share the stuff people don’t always talk about. Whether you’re newly polyamorous, deep in open relationships, or just curious about relationship structures outside the mainstream, this one’s for you. What We Talk About:<br /><ul><li>Our first steps into ethical non-monogamy (ENM) and polyamory</li><li>Where we looked for information, advice, and emotional support</li><li>Early emotional challenges like jealousy, insecurity, and loneliness</li><li>The cultural and queer identity layers that shaped our experiences</li><li>How support groups, dating apps, and community events helped (or didn’t)</li><li>Good advice, bad advice, and everything in between</li><li>Personal reflections, resilience, and learning to sit with discomfort</li><li>What we wish we’d known when we were starting out in ENM</li></ul><b>Mentioned in This Episode:</b><br /><ul><li><a href="https://ko-fi.com/enmdnm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ko-fi.com/enmdnm</a></li><li><a href="https://yarnn.au" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">yarnn.au</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/polyphiliablog?igsh=Y2VhbW5neGd5c3E0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Poly Phelia Instagram</a></li><li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/shrimpteeth?igsh=dGI5MmR5ZXV5amVw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shrimp Teeth Instagram </a></li><li>The Ethical Slut (book)<a href="https://www.instagram.com/_enterthedragon_?igsh=c3oyaWF1cXI5OHBm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a></li></ul><b>Love what you hear?</b><br /><ul><li>If this episode resonated with you, give us a follow, leave a review, or support the pod on Ko-fi.</li><li>Want to keep the conversation going? Join our queer-friendly Discord community where we talk ENM, dating, identity, and more.</li><li>Next episode, we’re diving into intersectionality in ENM—how our race, gender, queerness, and lived experience shape the way we show up in relationships. </li></ul>Thanks for joining us in this honest conversation about ethical non-monogamy, queer identity, communication, community, and the very real struggles of starting out. <br /><br />Loved the episode?

			<description><![CDATA[<b>Episode 1: Starting Out in ENM</b><br /><br />How We Found Ethical Non-Monogamy and What It Means to Us Curious about how people actually get into ethical non-monogamy? In this very first episode of The ENM DNM, we sit down with our full crew – Adam, Leonie, Ed, Ari, and Jacqui – to share how we each found our way into ENM, polyamory, or something a little harder to define. From queerness and curiosity to dissatisfaction with monogamy, our journeys into non-traditional relationship structures are deeply personal, sometimes hilarious, and always real. We unpack the words that have shaped us – like polyamory, relationship anarchy, and ethical non-monogamy – and how labels can be both empowering and frustrating. Whether you're still figuring out what label (if any) fits you, or you're happily dancing outside the boxes, this one’s for you.<br /><br /><b>What we talk about in this episode:</b><br /><ul><li>How we each came to non-monogamy, and why</li><li>Why labels like polyamory, ENM, and RA can be useful… or not</li><li>What communication, consent, and boundaries look like in real life</li><li>Early challenges and moments of growth</li><li>How queer identity, community, and self-discovery intersect in our relationships</li></ul><b>Mentioned in this episode:</b><br /><ul><li><a href="https://ko-fi.com/enmdnm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ko-fi.com/enmdnm</a> – Support the pod and help us keep going 💛</li><li><a href="https://yarnn.au" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">yarnn.au</a></li><li><a href="https://hausofdizzy.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">hausofdizzy.com</a></li><li><a href="https://kinyalerrk.com.au" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">kinyalerrk.com.au</a></li><li><a href="https://clothingthegaps.com.au" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">clothingthegaps.com.au</a></li><li>Decolonise Yourself Card Game by Aretha Brown</li></ul><b>Love what you hear?</b><br /><ul><li>Join our community on Discord (coming soon!)</li><li>Support us on Ko-Fi</li><li>Subscribe or follow wherever you get your podcasts</li><li>Share this episode with your polycule, your curious mates, or your queer book club</li></ul>Next episode: Navigating The Early Days of ENM– we’re diving into the messy first six months of non-monogamy and how we survived them.<br /><br />Loved the episode?
