Dr. Joli Hamilton has spent years studying the unique aspects of romantic relationships and helps couples who color outside the lines to create partnerships that are custom built for their authentic selves. Today on the Women’s Vibrancy Code, Dr. Joli, the jealousy expert, defines what creative consensual non-monogamy is and what it is not. She and Maraya discuss how jealousy and envy are different and how to have more vibrant and honest relationships by addressing the “monogamy” elephant in the room!
IN THIS EPISODE:
- [01:38] Episode introduction and Joli Hamilton professional background.
- [07:40] What is jealousy and how is it different from envy?
- [17:29] The unhealthy response to jealousy.
- [22:10] What is creative non-monogamy and the cultural implications surrounding it?
- [28:47] Maraya’s response and what non-monogamy looks like outside of the sexual aspects.
- [38:59] Episode recap and how to reignite the passion in your relationship in one single conversation.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Jealousy is distinct from envy. It is the fear of interruption of a love bond with a special someone and a threat to survival. Whereas envy is wanting what someone else has.
- In the context of jealousy, violence is more prevalent than we give ourselves credit for. Individuals should seek out therapy, support and foundational safety when there is any type of violence or control issues present in a relationship.
- Monogamy and non-monogamy extend to more aspects of a relationship than just $ex. It can and should be explicitly defined in how you handle your finances, friendships, travel, parenting and more. It’s all relevant when making clear and loving agreements in your relationship.
