In today's episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Jess Lynn of Non-Monogamous Newbies! Jess shared the ins and outs of navigating a non-monogamous relationship, including jealousy, discomfort, communication, and more.

Jess is a non-monogamy relationship coach and licensed therapist. After opening her previously monogamous relationship of six years, Jess quickly learned just how little information there was out there from professionals on how to navigate non-monogamy. Jess is passionate about helping those who are new to non-monogamy OR who have been practicing and find themselves lost, so that they can gain surer footing, dial in on their individual needs, and creating multiple meaningful connections and live their lives more authentically. Through her coaching program, she shares her knowledge and personal stories through the lens of a trained clinician, in hopes that others can reach relationship success and step into their authenticity!

You can follow Jess on Instagram @nonmonogamous_newbies as well as on her free Facebook Group of the same name.

Welcome to Illuminaked!💡 Where we shed light on dating, sex, and relationships to promote sexual empowerment and autonomy while challenging limiting beliefs and shame-based ideologies.

In today’s episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Angela Griffith, The Christian Sexpert! Angela shared the dangers of purity culture, why the Bible doesn't actually teach women that they can't deny their husband's of sex, and how we can protect ourselves against the negative, shaming effects of purity culture.

Angela, The Christian Sexpert brings a unique blend of humor and education to the rarely discussed topic of sex in Christian marriage. She brings hope and healing to those damaged by toxic church teachings of purity culture and phrases like “Men need sex”. With a following of over 100k on TikTok, she is ready to challenge what you think you know about what sex and intimacy mean in marriage. While she comes at the topic of sex from a Christian worldview, about half of her followers are not of any particular faith, and find her unique take on sex and intimacy to be a refreshing change to the narrative you have probably heard before.

To learn more from Angela, visit her website www.thechristiansexpert.com and on TikTok and Instagram.
