Talking Polyamory with Millie & Nick from Decolonizing Love

“Decolonizing Love” is a social enterprise advocating for polyamory through a critical theory lens, examining the intersections of decolonization, desirability politics, and toxic masculinity. Millie Boella (she/they) and Nick (he/him), a polyamorous couple that live in Toronto, Canada, have been together for 15 years. Millie, of mixed Kenyan heritage with roots in the Dorobo, Nandi, Kikuyu, and Maasai tribes, has lived across Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Europe, before moving to Canada. Nick, originally from Montreal, is of Italian and Greek descent.

Millie, a professional writer and artivist, has always embraced polyamory, drawing inspiration from their upbringing in Maasai territory. With over 20 years of activism, they founded the Toronto Non-Monogamous BIPOC group in 2017. Nick, who holds three science degrees and an MBA, became polyamorous in 2010. He is an executive, AI engineer and relationship coach with a strong background in volunteerism and teaching men to deprogram from toxic masculinity.

In 2021, Millie and Nick launched “Decolonizing Love,” which quickly gained significant traction, amassing over half a million followers across social media and earning features in major media outlets and giving keynotes at prestigious universities. Their work focuses on providing holistic support and peer counseling to make polyamory more accessible and inclusive.
