(Edinburgh, UK / November 6, 2025) – Dr. Lori Beth Bisbey joins host Mehgan Sapphire on a new episode of the Sapphire’s Earplay podcast, “Love Unboxed: Dr. Lori Beth Bisbey on Modern Relationships”, for a candid, wide-ranging conversation about attraction, identity and the ever-shifting terrain of relationships in 2025.
In this episode, Bisbey unpacks the complexities of open relationships, the distinctions between polyamory and non-monogamy, the evolution of identity beyond fixed labels and the urgent need for accountability in sexual health.
“Non-monogamy is the most amazing thing for some people, and for others, it’s hell,” says Bisbey in the episode, also weighing in on evolving identity and accountability: “Identity politics locks people into something and doesn’t allow for evolving,” and “People are really willing to point fingers at other people, but they don’t take responsibility for themselves.”
As a clinical psychologist, accredited GSRD therapist, and sex & intimacy coach with over three decades of experience, Dr. Bisbey continues to use her platform to challenge stigma and foster open dialogue around topics many are still afraid to discuss – especially around attraction fluidity, emotional safety and how modern relationships are reshaping traditional norms.
