My first time I was in panic mode. I needed this book!
I’m here to help all people who…
- can’t find good material on the subject or open relationships
- want to remain in a committed relationship with their primary partner
- are already in an open relationship and want to get better at it
- don’t know which important conversations to have with their partner about being in an open relationship
- love their partner and want to explore a broader sexual experience without cheating
- want to avoid jealousy, betrayal, and deception in their primary relationship
INSIDE OPEN
IS EVERYTHING YOU NEED
Part #1
Start With Why
Most people who want to have an open relationship don’t know how to start the conversation with their partner, and they don’t really know how to answer the most critical question of why they want to do so.
In OPEN you’ll learn how to start the conversation with your partner for the very first time, and how to clarify the reasoning behind it in a way that’s non-threatenning for them.
Yet many people aren’t able to clarify their reasons for wanting to pursue an open relationship. I mean, why not just cheat, right?
Part #2
Evolutionary Psychology and Sex
90% of people consider cheating to be wrong, yet 50% of people cheat on their partners! That’s chronic hypocrisy, and shouldn’t there be more transparency and honesty in the world? Yet, most people don’t understand the drivers and motivations behind some of our deeper impulses.
In OPEN you’ll find an easy to read guide on why cheating AND monogamy both seem to be valued by the majority of people at the same time. It’s a paradox of evolutionary psychology that can be overcome only in an open relationship.
But still there’s a concern that open relationships are lacking love or trust.
Part #3
Love, Sex, Trust & Transparency
Many people would equate an open relationship with a lack of a good sex life, or a breakdown in trust, love, belonging, or transparency. This couldn’t be further from the truth.
In OPEN, you’ll interact with great stories clarifying the distinctions between love and sex, and encouraging the reinforcing loop of trust and transparency.
And yet some still might say that it’s too risky to navigate an open relationship.
Part #4
The Distinctions of An Open Relationship
Those who think that open relationships are too risky, simply don’t know the right kinds of conversations to have with their partner.
In OPEN, you’ll learn to distinguish between discomfort and pain, allergies and fetishes, rituals and rules, and boundaries and permissions. You’ll have all of the right topics to cover to give you your best chance at a fun and life-giving open relationship with your partner.
And others still struggle with not having the correct tools.
Part #5
The Open Toolkit
Most of those who think an open relationship is too complicated, simply haven’t seen the OPEN toolkit.
In OPEN, you’ll have examples of couples‘ Open Agreements that you can use to create one of your own. You’ll have a set of checklists that will help you clearly define boundaries for you and your partner. And you’ll have The Conversation Starter to both get the conversation going with your partner, and make sure you cover all of the important decisions you need to make together.
What Our Customers are Saying
When my wife and I were first learning how to navigate an open relationship, there was SO LITTLE information available, and most of what’s there isn’t all that practical.
If you and your partner didn’t care about each other, you’d simply cheat on each other. The fact that you’re even reading this means that you value your primary relationship enough to want it to be healthy and improved by an open relationship.
But open relationships are still taboo in most of the world. It’s a bit like being LGBTQ+ in the 1980’s. Open is still a part of the “+” I guess. You can’t talk about it at work, to your family, and even in the small circle you may have confessed to already, you’re likely to be viewed as creepy or unnatural.

OPEN IS NOT a quick fix or a marriage counseling course.

The BAD NEWS Is
OPEN IS NOT for Everyone
- It’s NOT for people looking for an excuse to cheat on their partner
- It’s NOT for people who don’t love or are not committed to their partner
- It’s NOT for people who are willing to betray, lie to, or manipulate their partner
The GOOD NEWS Is
It’s SPECIALLY designed for
People who want a life-giving open relationship with their partner
No matter which niche you are in. It works perfectly for:
- Partners wanting to explore the concept of an open relationship.
- People already in an open relationship who are struggling or want new tools.
- Married couples, heterosexual, homosexual, or otherwise, who are in, or would like, an open relationship.
- Unmarried couples of any sexual or gender orientation who are interested in an open relationship.
- Family members of those in open relationships wanting to learn about what it means.
- Singles wanting to start a new relationship with an open understanding.
“Hi, My name is Dr. James Whittard
… and I struggled with an open relationship needlessly for years”
- I once had NO CLUE about how to navigate an open relationship, so I made my partner wait 13 years before we started exploring,
- But I really did want to have an open relationship with my partner all that time and I just had no idea how to go about it (just like you?)
- I know how important being in an open relationship is. It can end in catastrophe MUCH MORE EASILY than it can proceed with love and trust and freedom. So I had no choice. I had to learn it.
- I clearly remember how hard it was at the beginning. And I don’t want you to experience the endless hours that Rachel and I spent trying to discover boundaries and sensitivities, allergies and fetishes. We’d sometimes stay up all night, arguing, confused, committed to each other but struggling to find shared meaning.
Stop Living in Fear,
Start Loving in Freedom.
“But it will ruin our relationship”
Actually no, once you have a clear and shared understanding of what you want and why, you and your partner can protect each other while exploring an open sexuality.
What I’m trying to tell you is this:
You don’t need to spend 25 years learning to have an open relationship like I did. You can use OPEN and start having that open relationship with your partner right now.
STOP LIVING IN FEAR!
Start the conversation. Start taking action. Start the first chapter in your open relationship.
SHORTCUT!
This book is a SHORTCUT that helps you start an open relationship without the fears of jealousy, betrayal, or deceit.
- Even if you have never considered an open relationship before and you’re afraid of your partner cheating on you. (You are not alone, I was afraid Rachel would cheat on me too!)
- Even if you have never been in an open relationship, or had multiple partners. (Been there… and the tools in OPEN saved me and my wife.)
- Even if you’ve had an open relationship before and failed. (Been there too! Ugh… it was hard. But, please, don’t give up! Try to use OPEN.)
Now is the time.
Stop Living in Fear… and… Start Loving in Freedom
