159: No More Bullsh*t: Radical Honesty, Emotional Affairs & Modern Marriage feat. JC Wilde

This week Elle and Vee have a deep, free-flowing and wide-ranging chat with JC Wilde, writer and director of the film Wild Fire. They speak about emotional affairs and the radical honesty that nearly burned her marriage down, and then what happens when you stop performing “perfect partner” and start saying the thing that scares you most. Inspired by real-life truth-or-dare confessions, Wild Fire sparks a raw conversation about open relationships, people-pleasing, projection, and the freedom of a no-more-bullsh*t kind of love.

This is a conversation that will stick with you long after it's finished, from how you approach relationships to noticing how ENM and queer relationships are depicted in film and TV.
