Overview of The Jealousy Workbook

Endorsed by "The Ethical Slut" co-author Dossie Easton, Kathy Labriola's practical workbook tackles polyamory's biggest challenge: jealousy. While critiqued for heteronormativity, it remains the go-to resource for non-monogamous communities seeking exercises that transform relationship insecurity into connection abundance.

Imagine discovering your partner has feelings for someone else-and instead of hiding it, they want to explore that connection with your blessing. For most of us, this scenario triggers immediate panic. Yet thousands of people are successfully navigating these emotional waters using Kathy Labriola's practical approach to jealousy management. Unlike abstract theories, this method offers concrete strategies for one of life's most challenging emotional experiences. What makes jealousy particularly difficult is that most of us have been conditioned to believe it's unmanageable-a force of nature that simply happens to us rather than a complex emotion we can understand and address. But what if we could break down this overwhelming feeling into manageable components? What if we could identify exactly what triggers our jealousy and develop targeted strategies to address those specific triggers?
