Microdosing Our Way Forward 👅

Protocol: What if growth doesn’t have to come from one huge leap—but from a hundred smaller experiments?

In this episode, we catch up on the surprisingly large number of small things we’ve been doing lately as we continue figuring out what open relating looks like for us. We talk about preparing for Scottsdale, attending a bisexuality workshop, taking a Kinsey-style sexuality quiz and an ENM placement quiz, and thinking more seriously about how labels can be useful without having to become identities we’re locked into.

Then we get into an idea that tied the whole episode together for us: microdosing ENM. Instead of treating growth like a series of giant tests, what happens if we focus on smaller experiences that stretch our comfort zones, expand our capacity, and teach us something without completely overwhelming us?

🧪 In This Episode:

• Our latest Scottsdale prep—and what we want to do differently this time
• Why Roz is focusing more on comfort, connection, and being herself
• Why attraction, experience, and identity don’t always line up neatly
• How differently we experience emotions in our bodies
• Our aura photos—and what our couple’s photo unexpectedly revealed
