This week Skye and Amanda start love month with their favorite author on the topic, bell hooks. The two discuss hooks’ third book from the love trilogy, Communion: The Female Search for Love. Listen in to hear hooks’ ideas on the female search for love, the purpose of community in our love lives and sexist views that are holding us back. 

They each share details about whether they felt the pressure to find “true love”, what have been their examples of marriage and what it means to be a loving partner.
