Welcome back to the Beyond, BLBers. This week, Lexie and Andie answered your burning love questions in celebration of Valentine’s Day.

They offer their perspectives on the stuff everyone thinks about: Will I ever find love? Do soulmates exist? Does love stay “on fire” forever?

In this episode, you’ll hear about the stages of love, the brain chemistry responsible for each phase, and why the honeymoon phase feels so intense. Together, the pair tackles everything from boundaries and unconditional love to grief and dating again, and even what heartbreak does to your body. They even get into what love might look like in the afterlife, through the lens of everything they’ve learned about near-death experiences.

They close with advice for anyone who wants to find love: stop treating it like a finish line. Build a life you actually enjoy. And along the way, embrace the fear. Take the risk, go on that date, and love will meet you where you’re at.
