Do you feel happy when your partner does something that makes them happy – even if you’re not involved? What if they do something with someone else?

Today Laura and I take a DEEP DIVE into compersion - the experience of being happy for your partner when they experience joy outside of their relationship with you.

It is a way of being that helps you both thrive - but…how do you get there? In the episode Laura and I discuss:

-The definition of compersion

-How it helps relationships

-Is it necessary?

-What if you don’t feel it?

-The dark side of striving for compersion

-Learning from “negative” emotions

-Jealousy in relationships

Sex and the Solo Girl with Janice Formichella is an inclusive space for all adults who are looking to improve their relationships with themselves and others. I believe that singlehood is a portal for opportunities in life and love. I also believe that regardless of its shape, love is love and that there are a wide variety of different types of relationships, and that all are valid.

As a podcast host, I am dedicated to making this a safe and inclusive space for all and strive to portray that in my content. I welcome feedback on my efforts and thank you for being a listener and a part of the show’s community.
