Infinite Devotion - Why we have chosen a permanent commitment to each other

Episode 45: Infinite Devotion - Why we have chosen a permanent commitment to each other   In this episode of Dom Sub Devotion, we discuss the profound impact of the permanent, lifelong commitment we have made to each other. We explore how this “all in” approach has fostered safety, freedom, and a deeper connection…all while making it possible for each of us to be on our individual journey of self discovery.   We share personal reflections from each of our first failed marriages, and what we learned from being the ones to leave those relationships that has helped us each grow.   And we discuss the vulnerability and fears associated with making this kind of commitment.   This episode is filled with tears and deep vulnerability from both of us, and we share it with you as an example of why we believe that commitment has even more of a place in today’s world than ever before. And it ends with a very special, unplanned public declaration of this permanence of our love and commitment to each other, shared with all of you as witnesses to this promise.   It’s why we named our business Infinite Devotion. ~~~~~~~~~~     Get Dawn's Manifesto: The Self Respecting Submissive Woman.
