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.

B is for Boundaries and Belonging
What happens when our need for connection collides with our need for self-protection? In this deep, vulnerable, and truth-packed episode of The ABCs of Polyamirite, Chelle unpacks the complex tension between boundaries and belonging in polyamorous relationships.
From self-abandonment and unmet needs to practical tools for setting—and receiving—boundaries with clarity and care, this episode explores why so many of us struggle to hold onto ourselves in the name of love. We will get real about the cultural pressures that tell us to perform, to stay small, or to “just deal with it” in order to keep our place in a relationship — and how reclaiming our limits can actually deepen intimacy, not destroy it.
Whether you're new to non-monogamy or a seasoned polyam practitioner, this conversation will help you:
- Understand the difference between a boundary and a demand
- Navigate tricky dynamics like hierarchy, scheduling, and metamour tensions
- Learn language and scripts for honest, kind boundary-setting
- Explore how real belonging can’t exist without truth
If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Can I really say no and still be loved?” — this episode is for you. “You cannot truly belong if you are constantly shape-shifting to stay included.”
