Compersion—the warm, fuzzy feeling of joy when your partner experiences pleasure with someone else—is often called the “opposite of jealousy.” But what does it really mean, and how do you cultivate it in your non-monogamous relationships?

In this episode, Anthony, Pinky, and Ava dive into the concept of compersion; sharing personal stories, insights, and practical tips on how to navigate this unique emotion.

They discuss:
• What compersion is (and what it isn’t)
• The role of compersion in different types of non-monogamy
• How to develop compersion if it doesn’t come naturally
• Common challenges and how to work through them
• Real-life experiences of feeling (or struggling to feel) compersion

Whether compersion flows easily for you or feels like a work in progress, this episode offers perspectives to help you explore and deepen this often-misunderstood aspect of non-monogamous relationships.
