Living LUNA: Navigating
Non-Monogamy!!

Are you polyamorous or ENM, expressing joy about your authentic loves? Or, are you curious about non-monogamy and don’t know where to start? We’re here for you!

Living a polyamorous or ethically non monogamous lifestyle in the open often leads to misunderstandings and misconceptions. Ingrained in modern society, people feel obligated to practice monogamy while normalizing affairs and side pieces. 

Finding community and acceptance as a polyam or ENM person comes with a unique set of challenges. Those who openly practice non monogamous  relationship structures are often mislabeled, judged, and invalidated, leading us to feel isolated, invisible, or like we are living a lie.

So much of navigating an ENM lifestyle is unhooking from myths and stereotypes about what these labels even mean. Non-monogamy is a spectrum, from swingers to life partners. We have learned ourselves how to create healthy non-monogamous relationships because WE are polyamorous ourselves!

Our Story

The founding members of the Living LUNA Team are a polyamorous chosen family! Ikenna and Safrianna have been together for 5 years after leaving unhealthy non monogamous situations. Justin and Safrianna have been together for over 2 years now, and Ikenna and Kristen have been together for a bit over a year.

For years, Ikenna and Safrianna explored what it means to be polyamorous in a healthy, open way, while detaching from codependency and societal programming. Thanks to their prior lived and unaligned experiences, along with their own professional experiences as ENM-informed therapists, Safrianna and Ikenna found passion for sharing polyamory education and ENM resources with the world.

A Complex, But Beneficial Relationship Structure

Polyamory and non-monogamy is not just about sex. There is a spectrum of relationships, situationships, and circumstances that these relationships find themselves in. Poly-families can be close knit chosen families when communication is compassionate and curious rather than judgemental or controlling.

Healthy polyamorous relationships can be beautiful and beneficial, with a wide range of benefits across various aspects of life, including emotional, fiscal, domestic, spiritual, and communal dimensions. Ethical non monogamy can provide boundaried ways for couples to have their diverse needs met across a spectrum of preferences and desires. These relationships promote open, honest dialogue about feelings, desires, and boundaries.

Healthy Polyamory and ENM  relationships can adapt to the needs and growth of everyone involved. As desires, needs, and boundaries shift, more support can be provided. All members of the polyam relationship benefit from the broader network. This also applies for caregiving needs, in times of illness, or crisis.

Not to mention… Monogamy, in this economy??? 

Join Our Affirming Community Spaces


Each of us has navigated the intersections of our own fears, shames, and disappointments as they relate to how we show up in relationships and see our own role in them. We’ve navigated romantic, sexual, platonic, and familial bonds.

We are a polyamorous and Ethically Non Monogamous affirming community space, but we are not a dating or swinging community.

We’re excited to have conversations about polyamory and healthy non monogamy (heck, we’d like to talk more about healthy monogamy, too)! When you join our communities, know you’re joining a space where your unique relationship structures can be openly discussed! No need to hide your love!

Resources

We feel blessed to be able to bring our stories forward to help others navigate uncertainties due to societal views of non monogamy. We create educational and uplifting content that offers perspectives, practices, and understanding for those who may identify as polyamorous or ethically non monogamous, may be curious about polyamory or ENM, or may have a loved one who identifies in these ways who they want to understand more.

Ethical non monogamy support–or support for any relationship–can look like:

  • Help navigating interpersonal changes

  • Establishing and improving communication

  • Understanding and setting boundaries

  • Connecting with community and acceptance

  • Creating safety to openly express needs, desires, and values

Living LUNA represents a collective of service providers here to provide you with the best counseling, consulting, coaching, and guidance tailored to your specific needs and preferences.
