About the Group

The Exchange Circle is a confidential, judgment-free support group designed for individuals in power exchange (PE) dynamics and BDSM relationships. Here, you’ll find a space of guidance, understanding, and community to navigate the unique challenges of these lifestyles.

Open to anyone in consensual power exchange relationships, whether you’re a Dominant, submissive, switch, or simply exploring your role.

What to Expect

Each meeting provides a balance of discussion, peer support, and education, encouraging participants to share experiences, challenges, and successes in a safe, open environment.

Topics we explore include:

  • Healthy communication in power dynamics
  • Setting and maintaining boundaries
  • Emotional resilience and aftercare
  • Ethical non-monogamy and relationship structures
  • Self-care within intense dynamics
  • Conflict resolution and de-escalation in BDSM contexts
  • Building trust and safety within scenes and relationships

Group discussions are guided with empathy and respect, creating a safe space to express freely without judgment. Members are encouraged to listen, offer support, and share resources, fostering community and growth.
