Through private coaching and educational workshops, The Open Dynamic helps individuals and couples strengthen communication, build trust, establish healthy boundaries, and create relationship experiences that are aligned with their values and goals.
My journey into ethical non-monogamy (ENM) began after my divorce. From the outside, I had what many would consider a successful life and marriage. We spent years traveling the world, sharing incredible adventures. But when life settled into routine, I realized something important: adventure wasn't just something I enjoyed—it was a core value that shaped who I am.
That realization led me down a path of self-discovery, difficult lessons, and ultimately a deeper understanding of relationships. After navigating infidelity, heartbreak, monogamy, ENM, life as a unicorn, and a thriving open relationship, one theme became impossible to ignore: nearly every challenge stemmed from communication. Dating one person is hard enough. Dating multiple people while balancing trust, boundaries, confidentiality, and emotional safety add entirely new layers of complexity.
As I explored the ENM and lifestyle communities, I found support through podcasts, events, and the incredible people who became my community. Along the way, I realized many others were struggling with the same questions, uncertainties, and growing pains that I had experienced.
That's why I created The Open Dynamic
My goal is to provide a safe, confidential, neutral, and judgment-free space for individuals and couples navigating alternative relationship structures. Whether you're curious about ENM, entering the lifestyle, rebuilding trust, improving communication, or simply looking for an unbiased sounding board, coaching can help you gain clarity, confidence, and the skills needed to create relationships that align with your values.
