063: Unleashing Suppression Through Polyamory, Kink and Compassion with Allison Landry

I’m so excited to have one of my former Dating for Love students here on the podcast this week, Allison Landry! Allison and I talk about what drew her to my course, her beautiful transformation all the way to, you guessed it, the juicy love stories that came afterwards.   Allisons shares her struggles with me including how much fear she had around relationships especially dealing with sexual trauma on top of that. We discuss how her lack of trust started to infiltrate all of her relationships and how it stopped her from being vulnerable around people and feeling really closed off from the world. But when you hear her today, you won’t even think she’s the same person. She’s made a complete 180! After completing Dating For Love, Allison has found herself in a polyamorous relationship where she feels safe and loved, goes out on regular dates, and even visits the occasional play party. WHAT ELSE WE’RE TALKING ABOUT:   Allison’s biggest takeaways from Dating For Love and how much it’s changed her life That learning how to be compassionate towards men lets us understand their own struggles better and how to be a compassionate partner How the incredible self-discovery journey Allison went on allowed her to recognise her unhealthy patterns in relationships How she lets relationships unfold instead of turning away from a lack of instant attraction How play and kink can unleash bounds of suppression society has latched onto us That you can receive so much clarity, openness and connection from playing with your partner (or partners!) Her next pursuit of forming deeper platonic relationships and how she plans on forming those connections Connect with me:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelleymbode Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kelley.bode.90  Twitter: https://twitter.com/kelleybode
