Ep. 8: Is this love?

Tuesday Sep 24, 2019

How has your definition of love changed throughout the years? What does it mean to you to love someone? How do you feel loved? Is loving yourself separate from loving others? The way we are introduced to love through our relationship with our parents, the movies we watched as kids or the novels we read, shapes a lot of the unconscious ways we behave in intimate relationships. That perception may change as we evolve, through experiences of love, heartbreak and everything in between. We dive into the topic of love on this episode!
