Unfortunately, humans 32 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 5: are not a monogamouts species and that four percent. 33 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 6: No, I absolutely agree with you on that. I just 34 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:43,279 Speaker 6: never never seen nothing like that. So how did that happen? 35 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 5: Like you had a husband, Yes, Karl, I've had a husband, 36 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 5: you know, for twenty eight years. 37 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 3: I got married when I was twenty one. We met 38 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: at Howard. 39 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: University and they have children, three children, have three children, 40 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: young children now and who are by the way, very supportive, 41 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: oh and brilliant. 42 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 6: So in that marriage, early on, y'all you was doing 43 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 6: them anonomy thing or trying to do it or oh 44 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 6: you know, because it's because I think. 45 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, And to be clear, Carl is the one that 46 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: first was like I like someone else. 47 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 3: Yes, So we were monogamous for the first twelve years. 48 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 5: But at year four, you know, I found myself having 49 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 5: attractions for other men and he found himself having attractions 50 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 5: for other women, and we would always talk about. 51 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 3: It, you know how you go to the mall say oh, 52 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 3: you know, look at that. But it became like we 53 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: were really have these attractions and we were surprised because 54 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 3: we thought once you got married that goes away.

So 57 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 5: we went through that. But by year twelve, we had 58 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 5: talked about this so much and he had somebody at 59 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 5: work that he was really feeling. 60 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 3: But we never cheated on each other.

Where does this mindset come from? Is it 103 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 5: a Western mentality?

This is what 325 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 5: This is my only company, my business, and it's a 326 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 5: multimillion dollar It looks I can do well because yeah, 327 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 5: you guys have a well, we have celebrities, athletes, people 328 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 5: who really do want an open marriage, but they want 329 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 5: it private.

We have an entire communication system. 490 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 5: First of all, when couples come to me, they say 491 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 5: they want polyamory, but they're not ready. 492 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 3: None of my. 493 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 5: Ready a because they don't have a communication system that works. 494 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 3: They they are using a language of war in their house. 495 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 3: Their house is daily a war. 496 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 5: If you're like that, you have to first heal that. 497 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 5: If y'all had cheating in the past, you have to 498 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 5: first heal that.

If I'm jealous about something, we use up level. 512 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 5: If I'm jealous because I saw I've been jealous, Oh god, 513 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 5: what as some fine women? 514 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 7: Fine?

So I'll come to 522 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 5: him and use up level and ask, listen, I have 523 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 5: a vent somes on my heart.

Then if he says, yes, I can vent, 533 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 5: but I will tell him you're not doing anything wrong. 534 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 3: This is just my ego speaking. 535 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so it's not blaming him. 536 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 5: I'm not blaming him for how I'm I'm not saying 537 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 5: it's his fault.

Okay, so after watching that and seeing that lady, 552 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 8: you know, by the end of the conversation she was interested. 553 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 3: Everyone's interesting. I'm interested in this. 554 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 5: They just don't know how to do it, and that's 555 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 5: why we created the Academy. 556 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 1: Now for a Tiger and David, did you guys have 557 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,919 Speaker 1: some apprehension about actually doing this show? And then has 558 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: there been any backlash because clearly people see you on 559 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: the show, and it's people that you know that maybe 560 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: didn't even know you were in this situation and had 561 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 1: no idea what your relationship status is, like people that 562 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: may have known you from the past, family members, even 563 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: because some family members also don't like this arrangement. 564 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 4: I don't know if David had a for most people 565 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 4: like what was going on. I have to tell him. 566 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 9: Look, first of all, going her page, the men have 567 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 9: girlfriends too, So I know what you're thinking.

That's happening and very respectful. 571 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 9: And again I'm gonna say it one time. Most people 572 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 9: are doing that already. They're just not just hiding about it, 573 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 9: just lying about it. So I didn't feel a certain way. 574 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 9: Everyone who knows me personally, they're like, oh, okay, cool. 575 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 9: I was just wondering. 576 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 4: They thought they all we were all just tag teaming her. 577 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: Okay, what about your family, mom, I'm going pretty much, 578 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: what want to do? 579 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 7: Well, he'll get his two weeks.

They haven't, and it's 711 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 5: hard to for them to learn that. But it's easier with, 712 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 5: of course, our tools. But I remember any time I 713 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 5: would get angry or upset, he would be out the 714 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 5: door like he didn't. 715 00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 3: Want to hear it. 716 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 4: I'm not sticking around for that, right. 717 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 5: But until you what happened?

Then it wasn't that you were blaming me. 721 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 8: It wasn't that you know, guilty or anything like that. 722 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 8: Then it was like, okay, let's break it down.
