🎟️ 🎫 🎁💐💝 This event is free for Plura+ members. Thank you for choosing to support us with a premium membership. We love offering you a monthly free workshop with some of our favorite educators.
About the workshop
- What does it actually mean to be compersive?
- How can we access more compersion for our partner(s) and metamour(s)?
- Is compersion necessary for successful non-monogamous relationships?
In this live webinar, Dr. Marie Thouin will address these questions and more, using her most recent research findings from her PhD studies and upcoming book, 'What is Compersion?'
She will discuss her "compersion roadmap", which will help every attendee understand what promotes and hinders compersion for them. She will also demystify some of the main myths you might have heard around compersion, and share her takes on some controversial questions regarding the topic. Worry not: her compassionate and humanizing perspective will normalize "not always feeling compersion" and remove shame and blame from the equation (hint: you're not a "bad poly person" if you're not experiencing compersion!)
This event will be a blend of information sharing, Q&A, and discussion, so please bring all your questions!
🎥 This workshop will be recorded and available for replay for 4 weeks after the end of the workshop. Only ticket holders who purchased tickets prior to the end of the workshop will receive the recording.
