In this introductory episode of Poly Pathways, hosts Kat and Doc introduce themselves as polyamorous individuals who, while not partnered with each other, bring unique perspectives to polyamory discussions. Both hosts share their journey of recognizing their polyamorous identities, with Kat identifying as demisexual/bisexual/pansexual with ADHD, and Doc identifying as demisexual. They emphasize their approach to polyamory as just one aspect of their identities rather than their entire personality.
The hosts discuss how recent global events, particularly the post-pandemic period, have led many to question traditional relationship structures and seek deeper emotional connections. They position themselves as resources for those exploring polyamory, offering practical advice based on their personal experiences, mistakes, and successes. Their perspective is particularly unique as they represent polyamorous individuals who maintain conventional lives while practicing ethical non-monogamy.
The podcast will release biweekly episodes covering various topics including dating, trust, family issues, finances, and relationship repair. Future episodes will delve deeper into the hosts' personal polyamory journeys and provide practical guidance for navigating polyamorous relationships.
