G is for Grief & Gratitude
What do we do when love breaks our hearts and fills them at the same time? When grief sits beside gratitude — both insisting on being felt?
In this episode of The ABCs of Polyamirite, Chelle explores the quiet relationship between two truths that shape every polyamorous life: love changes, and love remains.
Grief arrives when a relationship ends, when compersion doesn’t land, when metamours drift, when imagined futures dissolve. Gratitude arrives when, despite all that, something inside you still whispers thank you for what was, and what still is.
In non-monogamy, we’re told to focus on abundance and joy, but grief and gratitude are part of that abundance too. They’re the pulse of love in motion, the reminder that endings and beginnings share the same breath.
What if grief isn’t an interruption of love, but its continuation?
And what if gratitude isn’t the denial of pain, but the way we stay connected to what’s real?
Through honest reflection, stories, and body-based practices, Chelle invites listeners to see grief and gratitude as co-conspirators in healing… two lenses that help us keep our hearts open, even when they ache.
In this episode, you’ll learn how to:
✅ Recognize the many faces of grief in polyamorous relationships — from major losses to daily micro-griefs
✅ Discover how gratitude can soften grief without erasing it
✅ Map your gratitude network and honor the people who shape your polyamorous journey
✅ Reframe difficult emotions through appreciation and perspective
✅ Express gratitude creatively and physically — beyond words
✅ Practice holding both grief and gratitude in the same breath
✅ Understand how grief reshapes love, and how gratitude helps it keep flowing
Grief is love transformed. Gratitude is that love, still glowing.

A is for Accountability
Ever find yourself stuck in a cycle of apologizing but not quite changing? Or maybe you've been on the receiving end of a “sorry” that felt more like a brush-off than a repair. In polyamory, where our actions impact more than one relationship, accountability isn't just important—it’s foundational.
In this episode of Polyamirite, host Chelle kicks off the ABCs of Polyamory series with a powerful exploration of what it really means to be accountable. From everyday missteps to deeper moments of harm, this episode invites you to look at accountability not as punishment—but as love in motion.
You’ll hear:
- Why accountability starts with self-awareness—not just when you’re called out, but when you notice you’ve missed the mark.
- The difference between intention and impact—and why centering impact is essential to rebuilding trust.
- How to embody accountability through follow-through, not just words.
- Real-life polyamorous scenarios—from broken boundaries to double-booked time—and how to respond with compassion and clarity.
- How emotional avoidance and over-accommodation can quietly erode relational safety.
- Scripts and reflections for how to hold others accountable with love and how to receive feedback without shutting down.
- What it looks like when accountability becomes a daily practice—and a living, breathing part of your relationships.
Whether you're just starting out in non-monogamy or are deep in the weeds of complex dynamics, this episode will help you ground yourself in truth, navigate mistakes with grace, and move toward repair—not just resolution.
You’ll walk away with tools, language, and gentle courage to keep showing up—honestly, imperfectly, and with your whole heart.
Listen now and remember:
Accountability doesn’t change the past.
But it can transform your future.
