Danielle: Rewriting the Rules of Dinner and Parenting through Ethical Non-Monogamy

What does it look like to raise kids with radical love and cultural curiosity? In this rich and wide-ranging conversation, we talk with Danielle of Openly Committed about parenting abroad, navigating food traditions across continents, and raising children who think critically about the world around them–which in this case, led her son to choosing a vegetarian diet. From trying to find ingredients in the UK for a classic Southern American cornbread, to rethinking what love and commitment look like in her 15-year ethically non-monogamous marriage, Danielle shares stories full of humor, honesty, and insight. We explore the logistics and emotional work of co-parenting, the impact of travel and re-urbanization on kids’ eating habits, and what it means to hold multiple truths in family life and relationships.
