What really happens inside an open marriage — beyond the fantasies, fears, and assumptions?
Author Molly Roden Winter joins us to share the raw truth behind her memoir More: A Memoir of Open Marriage, including jealousy spirals, boundary mishaps, sex that worked (and sex that very much didn’t), and the emotional renovations that reshaped her 26-year marriage.
Molly talks about the early chaos of opening her relationship, the surprising ways dating men differed from dating women, why rules always break before you do, and how she and her husband grew, built, and redefined trust. She also opens up about her psilocybin journey, forgiveness, what monogamy means after 17 years open, and why desire often has more to do with honesty than novelty.
If you’re curious about non-monogamy, wrestling with jealousy, or wondering what open marriage actually looks like outside of Instagram narratives — this conversation is real, funny, and disarmingly human.
