How to Build Relationships, Hook Up, and Raise Hell Together
In a world designed to keep us isolated, we follow romantic scripts that sabotage genuine connection. Dean Spade dismantles the "Romance Myth"—the belief that one person should complete you, and offers a radical alternative: building a web of deep relationships that can sustain us through capitalism's crises. Drawing on personal stories and therapeutic insights, this guide teaches differentiation over codependency, repair over disposability, and revolutionary care over isolation.
In this KitUP, you'll learn:
• How to recognize and heal your relationship patterns rooted in childhood wounds
• Practicing authentic consent and boundary-setting in all connections
• How to build a resilient community that replaces the pressure of "the one"
