We’re back again with Alexys part 2 in Asking For a Friend! The girls continue the conversation by talking about jealousy and how your partner flirting with a different person does not immediately mean attraction. Alexys opens up owning a small business, the mental struggles that come with it, and why she decided to go part-time. Alexys asks Jess raw questions about her upcoming "stepping into motherhood" and why people connect Polyamory with "white people shit".

In this episode of Open Late:

• Understanding the truth about flirting 

• Owning a small business and "monetizing" your passions

• Stepping into Motherhood and having hard conversations with your kids

• "White people shit" and different cultural views on Polyamory
