Get Open Talk — $17Is it the conversation about…
The issue may not be the topic itself. It may be the assumptions you each bring to it. Saying “we agreed” does not always mean you understood the same thing.
Imagine having calm, specific words to explain what matters to you. You can discuss protected time, ask for reassurance, and record what you both understand—then choose whether to proceed, revise, pause, or remain monogamous.
Open Talk helps you turn uncertainty into questions you can work through together. You do not have to resolve every difference in one night.
Open Talk’s Guided Communication System gives couples a structured 30-day path to discuss jealousy, define boundaries, protect shared time, and explore mutual decisions. The workbook organises those conversations into scripts, worksheets, and weekly check-ins you complete together.
Work through the guide at home, at your own pace. Identify what you need, practise making specific requests, and record agreements you can revisit as circumstances change. This is a downloadable workbook you use yourselves.
More talking does not always produce more clarity when the conversation has no structure. You may both use the same words while imagining very different expectations.
You do not need to match your partner’s excitement to care about them. Choosing to wait—or remain monogamous—can still be a thoughtful, shared decision.
What do we each mean? What am I feeling? What do I need? What can I ask for? What have we actually agreed?
Use the guide’s prompts to make your needs easier to understand and your next steps easier to revisit.
Jealousy is not, by itself, proof that you are incapable of non-monogamy. It can point toward fear, loneliness, a need for reassurance, or an expectation you have not yet discussed.
Open Talk introduces a four-step process: pause, name the feeling, find the need, and ask. Instead of making decisions in the heat of the moment, you can use the scripts to explain what is coming up and discuss what would help.
The guide helps you look underneath the immediate reaction, identify the need, and put it into words your partner can understand and answer.
Use the “I feel / I need / Would you” formula, your shared agreement template, and the weekly check-in agenda to move toward a specific request or next step. Both partners have room to say what is true, including “not yet” and “no.”
Every conversation used to circle around jealousy without resolving anything. The prompts helped us identify what I was actually afraid of and turn it into a request my spouse could answer. We now finish difficult discussions with a decision instead of going to bed exhausted.
We thought we agreed about sleepovers until the workbook revealed we had completely different assumptions. Finding that gap before either of us made plans prevented a painful misunderstanding. Our agreement now feels mutual, specific, and fair.
I used to treat every jealous feeling as proof that I could not handle this. Open Talk helped me understand what the feeling was protecting and explain it without accusing my partner. I feel calmer, clearer, and far more confident asking for reassurance.
My partner was excited, while I felt pressured to catch up. The weekly check-ins gave us a fair way to discuss pacing, childcare, protected time, and what readiness meant to each of us. We chose to pause, and for the first time that decision felt like teamwork rather than rejection.
What does “open” mean to each of you? What information would help you feel secure? What should stay private? Open Talk starts with shared vocabulary and your individual reasons for exploring.
Then you can compare boundaries, draft agreements, and return to them through regular check-ins. You have space to notice mismatches before making plans—and to revise decisions without treating a change of mind as a failure.
Follow a manageable sequence to explore your motivations, define boundaries, practice check-ins, and decide your next steps together.
Find the words to introduce non-monogamy, express your needs, and discuss difficult feelings without pressuring your partner.
Compare your “yes,” “maybe,” and “no” answers, then discuss where your comfort levels differ.
Record shared expectations around time, health, privacy, and how you will revisit decisions.
Use a structured 30-minute check-in, identify underlying needs, make specific requests, and practice repair after disagreements.

Follow Talk, Define, Practice, Decide—and slow down whenever either partner needs more time.
Instead of piecing together every conversation from scratch, keep the scripts, worksheets, and weekly check-in agenda in one practical guide.
Discuss the uncomfortable details while you are calm. Identify expectations, make specific requests, and decide what works for both of you. The goal is a relationship where each person can speak honestly—not a deadline for agreeing to non-monogamy.
