Through a great week reconnecting with a partner, Lee reflects on the fact that polyamory isn’t always easy. Our desires shift, our realities shift, and behavior does not always match identity. From sexy stories to encouragement to construct your own ideal relationship, this episode encourages you to look inward, look outward, and embrace your dreams… even through the muck and the mire.Links Mentioned:Poly Guacamole – http://passionandsoul.com/journal/poly-guacamoleAn Experiment in Power – http://passionandsoul.com/journal/experimentDark Odyssey.com – http://www.DarkOdyssey.com Lee Harrington contact information:http://www.PassionAndSoul.comhttp://www.FetLife.com/passionandsoulhttp://twitter.com/#!/PassionAndSoul

Whenever possible, have her kneel before you and ask to accompany you upon the furniture. Have her get your daily wardrobe ready for you the night before. Have her keep a diary of her journey into submission. And even  Reward her by giving her delicious pleasure. And many others! 

In this month’s short podcast, Lee has finished reading Fifty Shades of Grey and is truly angry.  Not about the bodice ripping, the tawdry plot line, or the unbelievable characters.
