The Biggest Misconceptions About Polyamory — Debunked

Y'all had a lot to say.. and we listened! In this episode we're tackling the biggest misconceptions about polyamory straight from our followers mouths. The idea that it's all about s*x, that jealousy doesn't exist, that it's unstable, bad for kids, or that every polyamorous person is automatically into you. Spoiler: none of that is true. We're going deep on all of it, sharing what love, commitment, and family actually look like inside our quad and how it's unlike anyone else.

The Relationship Nobody Talks About

Today we're talking about one of the most misunderstood relationships in polyamory — the metamour, or your partner's partner. We kick things off with a little game of 'how well do we know each other', then we get into our own metamour journey; the messy beginning, the lessons, the unexpected beauty of it, and what we wish someone had told us at the start. We also answer your questions from Instagram. Whether you're polyamorous, polyam-curious, or just someone who loves a good story time, this one's for you.

Responding to Your Relationship Curveballs

Alysia is back, baby! 🎉 This week on MetaMoms, we’re diving headfirst into some of your unexpected relationship curveballs — monogamous and polyamorous alike. We listen to your voicemails, offer some completely unsolicited advice, and reflect on the moments that make love, partnership, and communication so unexpectedly complicated.After the first one, we get real vulnerable and paused to privately navigate a real-life trigger moment between the two of us. With a little communication, a little grace (and a lot of honesty), we worked through it and kept the conversation going — because that’s what relationships are all about. It’s reflective, funny, and deeply human and we’re proud to sit in that growth with you all. Thank you as always for being here. We love you!

The Cliffhanger

This episode is a little different. Tyler and I are finally, sitting down together to unpack the ending of our PolyFamily season on TLC—an ending that left everyone (including us) with more questions than answers. We talk candidly about the re-enacted, on-camera disagreement that became a major turning point: my decision to date outside the quad. What viewers saw was only a fraction of what had really happened beneath the surface. We open up about how we navigated a major shift in our relationship dynamic, the immense fear that comes with redefining boundaries in real time, and what it feels like when the relationship structure you thought was solid suddenly starts evolving. There were growing pains. There were moments of doubt. And there were hard truths we had to face—both individually and together.This episode is about how our views on love, partnership, and commitment have changed, what we’ve learned since filming wrapped, and how we’re continuing to grow through discomfort instead of running from it.If you were left hanging by the finale…If you’ve ever questioned the “rules” of relationships…If you’ve ever had to choose growth even when it felt terrifying…This conversation is for you.No scripts. No producers. Just honesty, reflection, and the messy reality of evolving love.
