    The Affair I Almost Had and the Spark That Led Us to Open Our Marriage

    The ten years of monogamy that led us to open our marriage. Before Þórhildur ever said the word "polyamory," she spent ten years building a monogamous marriage — one that moved through teenage infatuation, an unplanned pregnancy at 20, the identity earthquake of new motherhood, a devastating low point disguised as wedding planning, a work "friendship" that turned into real feelings, and a slow, hard-won return to connection. In this episode, she tells the full story: the parts she doesn't usually share on the podcast. It's not a highlight reel — it's the honest, sometimes messy account of a normal relationship that eventually opened, and why understanding those ten years matters just as much as the eight years of open marriage that came after. If you've ever wondered whether your "boring" struggles could actually be pointing you toward a different kind of relationship, this episode is for you. 🎁 FREE gifts from Thorhildur if you are curious about Non-monogamy: {Video Coaching} 13 Questions to Ask Before You Redesign Your Love Life - that’ll save you years of struggle & confusion: https://risewiththorhildur.com/video-freebie-nonmonogamy {PDF Playbook} Tired of default monogamy?

    Your Sexual Self Doesn’t Care About Your Logic

    A deep conversation about the “sexual self” — the inner part of you that governs desire, turn-ons, boundaries, and truth — and what happens when you stop silencing it. What if the part of you that governs your sexuality doesn’t care about your self-image, your relationship rules, or what makes sense logically? In this episode, I explore the concept of the sexual self — the independent inner persona that holds your desires, turn-ons, boundaries, fantasies, and truth. I talk about: Why so many people feel conflicted in long-term relationships The disconnect between the logical self and the sexual self Why suppressing desire creates tension, numbness, and performance-based sex My own experience of silencing my bisexuality How conversations about non-monogamy often reveal a deeper issue: disconnection from desire itself The powerful shift that happens when you stop treating your sexuality like a problem to solve This is not really an episode about non-monogamy. It’s an episode about honesty. About listening to the part of you that has been whispering underneath the performance all along. PS. The movie I mention is called Golden Compass.  🎁 FREE gifts from Thorhildur if you are curious about Non-monogamy: {Video Coaching} 13 Questions to Ask Before You Redesign Your Love Life - that’ll save you years of struggle & confusion: https://risewiththorhildur.com/video-freebie-nonmonogamy {PDF Playbook} Tired of default monogamy?

    The Courage to Question Your Life. Marcel Interviews Thorhildur

    What if the people around you are no longer helping you grow, but quietly keeping you small? My boyfriend interviewed me and asked me some deeply personal questions about growth, relationships, and polyamory. We talked about the moments in my life where I wish I had been challenged differently, how new people and fresh perspectives have shaped me, and why growth often comes in waves of expansion and integration. We also explored what I’ve learned from being polyamorous for eight years, whether I’ve ever wanted to go back, and what I would say to someone who is curious about non-monogamy. More than anything, this conversation is about freedom, self-trust, and what it means for me to choose a life and relationships that feel true. 🎁 FREE gifts from Thorhildur if you are curious about Non-monogamy: {Video Coaching} 13 Questions to Ask Before You Redesign Your Love Life - that’ll save you years of struggle & confusion: https://risewiththorhildur.com/video-freebie-nonmonogamy {PDF Playbook} Tired of default monogamy?

    The Rejection Spiral: Why Sex Dies in Long-Term Relationships

    “This isn’t a relationship problem. It’s a cultural one.” In this episode of Radical Self, I’m joined by my partner Marcel for a raw, vulnerable, and deeply human conversation about desire, rejection, and what actually happens in long-term heterosexual relationships when sex becomes difficult. We talk about the quiet despair men feel when they are repeatedly rejected, the pressure women experience when desire feels like an obligation, and the cultural conditioning that traps couples in a painful loop of shame, withdrawal, and misunderstanding. This isn’t about blame. It’s about seeing the pattern clearly — and learning how to sit side by side instead of opposite each other. If you’ve ever felt undesired, pressured, lonely, or afraid to talk about sex with your partner, this conversation will name what you’ve been feeling and offer a new way forward. 🎁 FREE gifts from Thorhildur if you are curious about Non-monogamy: {Video Coaching} 13 Questions to Ask Before You Redesign Your Love Life - that’ll save you years of struggle & confusion: https://risewiththorhildur.com/video-freebie-nonmonogamy {PDF Playbook} Tired of default monogamy?

    Why Your Wife Doesn’t Tell You What She Really Wants in Bed

    Your wife isn’t rejecting you. She’s protecting herself (likely without knowing). And if her ‘no’ isn’t fully deeply safe with you, her ‘yes’ stopped being real a long time ago. 🎁 FREE gifts from Thorhildur if you are curious about Non-monogamy: {Video Coaching} 13 Questions to Ask Before You Redesign Your Love Life - that’ll save you years of struggle & confusion: https://risewiththorhildur.com/video-freebie-nonmonogamy {PDF Playbook} Tired of default monogamy?

    Owning Your Erotic Aliveness: From Shame to Sovereignty

    What does it mean to own your erotic aliveness? And why do so many of us feel frozen, disconnected, or shamed out of our natural erotic essence?   In this episode of Radical Self, Thorhildur dives deep into the four words that can change everything: Owning Your Erotic Aliveness.   You’ll discover: 🔥 What “erotic” really means beyond sex — and how it’s the pulse of life moving through you. 🌱 Why society trains us to shut it down… and how that creates disconnection, shame, and performance-based intimacy. 💃 How to thaw out, reclaim your desires, and step into your erotic sovereignty. 🌹 Why your erotic life is your responsibility — and how embracing it opens doors to freedom, intimacy, and joy. ✨ Practical ways to bloom where you’re planted (and move environments when you need to). Thorhildur weaves stories from her own journey — from economics student to tantric teacher, from feeling like “property” in her marriage to stepping into full sovereignty — to show you what’s possible when you dare to embody your erotic aliveness.   This is a call to liberation. A reminder that your erotic essence is not something to be managed, hidden, or performed — it’s your birthright.   🌹 If you’re ready to release shame, reconnect with your body, and reclaim your erotic life, listen in. 🎁 FREE gifts from Thorhildur if you are curious about Non-monogamy: {Video Coaching} 13 Questions to Ask Before You Redesign Your Love Life - that’ll save you years of struggle & confusion: https://risewiththorhildur.com/video-freebie-nonmonogamy {PDF Playbook} Tired of default monogamy?
