Permission Based Relationship
While we were interviewing someone for the podcast a the other night, they used a descriptor that I hadn’t heard of before in the years we’ve been living power exchange: a permission based relationship. Well, that resonated with me. A permission based relationship. I had never thought of our relationship in those terms, but…

How Survivors Can Thrive in a Power Exchange Relationship
This is a class I (dawn) have been teaching for many, many years. After our first OLF (Ohio Leather Fest) at the beginning of our relationship, I knew this was something I wanted to teach. People were asking questions about it and there weren’t many presenters that were willing to talk about it at…

Team Polyamory
We just got a request to review a textbook writing on Relationship Anarchy and had to turn them down. Basically, we know what Relationship Anarchy is, but it’s not how we do polyamory. As a matter of fact, we’ll be writing a class soon on ‘Team Polyamory’. I’m not sure what the title will be…
