Weaponized Autonomy

Weaponized Autonomy

by | Nov 20, 2023 | , , , , , , , , , ,

First of all, yes, you are absolutely entitled ALWAYS to decide for yourself what you want to say and do. You have FULL CONTROL over that. That’s 100% true. AND you also have a responsibility as a human being to treat the people in your sphere well, SIMULTANEOUSLY as you exercise your autonomy.
Prioritizing a Partner is NOT Hierarchy

Prioritizing a Partner is NOT Hierarchy

The inherent assumption is that the status of “highest priority” in hierarchical relationships will remain permanently and never ever waver, which is, for most, unrealistic. And in practice is quite a powerful and sometimes inaccurate assumption. It can also feed harmful behaviours (VETO is an example) and ways of thinking of someone else as intrinsically LESS. Which is personally why I don’t practice hierarchy.

Testimonial

“Leanne was wonderful to work with. She is patient and kind in how she presents ideas and thoughts. I never felt that she was leading me or making me think how she wanted me to think, rather that she was there to help me find my way on a path she already knew. She has been working with me to understand a new polyamorous dynamic in my relationship with my wife and I could not have asked for a better or more understanding coach on this journey.”
