We don't know about you, but we could use a big ol' break from all the politics. So it's the perfect timing to introduce the concept of compersion (i.e our wholehearted participation in the happiness of others) as we chat with Dr. Marie Thouin, an expert in the topic. We're discussing how compersion can operate in both monogamous and non-monogamous relationships, why jealousy and possessiveness don't have to be the conditioned response, and ways you can invite more joy into your dating life. Plus, we give updates on our trips to Italy + Mexico City in an extended intro.

To learn more about Dr Marie Thouin follow her @drnariethouin and visit her website whatiscompersion.com and order her book 'What is Compersion?' today!
