Permission Pools: A Polyamorous Co-Working Circle to Own Your Damn Truth
Details
Permission Pools
A Polyamory-Centered Online Co-working Container For The Non-Monogamous World
Permission Pools is a polyamory-centered space created so the polyamorous world can have a home and the non-monogamous world can have a voice.
This is not a workshop.
This is not therapy.
This is a living container for presence, honesty, and community.
At the heart of Permission Pools is one daily question:
What do I need to give myself permission to feel, release, desire, do, or create today?
This space exists so you can slow down enough to hear that answer and brave enough to honor it.
⸻
How Each Session Begins
Every Permission Pool opens with intention.
• Light breathwork to regulate the nervous system
• A grounded hint of spirituality (nothing dogmatic, nothing forced)
• A short mindset or personal development reflection
This isn’t about fixing yourself.
It’s about creating enough internal safety to show up honestly.
From there, we work.
⸻
What You Can Work On
You are invited to work on:
• Your art or creative projects
• Your healing and inner work
• Your business or remote work
• Your “zoo-ified work-from-home life” in a more human way
You are not isolated.
You are not rushed.
You are not expected to perform.
⸻
The Circle (Where the Stigma Starts to Break)
We close each session by opening the circle.
This is where people:
• Practice speaking from personal experience
• Learn to share without defending or over-explaining
• Build confidence in naming their truth
• Release secrecy, shame, and isolation
This is not debate.
This is not advice-giving.
This is learning how to own your story and speak for yourself.
When one person shares honestly, everyone else exhales.
⸻
Masks Are Welcome (And Intentional)
Masks and costumes are fully welcome in Permission Pools.
In the Jungle, masks don’t hide the truth. They hold it for ransom.
Masks allow people to:
• Express character, archetype, or identity
• Feel safer sharing vulnerable truths
• Speak freely without social consequence
You may also see the facilitator wearing a ski mask at the beginning, or throughout the session.
That mask is intentional. It represents the truth being held for ransom and the reason this work exists to fight stigma.
Masks and costumes are a core part of The Jungle Story and appear across:
• The Jungle Podcast
• The Fight the Stigma Tour
• Jungle PolyFit
• Jungle Circles
• Live and recorded Jungle events
We don’t wear masks to disappear.
We wear them to reveal what the world isn’t ready to hear yet.

Recording & Visibility Notice
Short clips from Permission Pools may be shared on @thejunglestory social media as part of the effort to fight stigma.
When we stay silent, stigma survives.
Silence turns into shame.
Shame turns into secrecy, self-censorship, emotional suppression, and isolation.
It forces people to keep hiding from:
• Family judgement
• Societal expectations
• Spiritual communities that exclude
• Psychological programming that says “this isn’t okay”
We believe stigma ends when people are seen, not erased.
We give it a voice by letting the world see us living honestly.
You always have the choice to:
• Keep your camera off
• Wear a mask or costume
• Share only what feels aligned
Consent, presence, and respect come first.
⸻
Who This Space Is For
• People practicing polyamory or open relationships
• People who are poly-minded, curious, or questioning
• Monogamous folks who are open, respectful, and willing to listen
This is a non-monogamous-centered space, but not an exclusive one.
What matters is how you show up.
