On this week’s episode Skye & Amanda dig deep into the definition of love. The two discuss how reading All About Love: New Visions by bell hooks transformed their views on love no longer just being a feeling, but being wrapped in action. Listen in to hear about the ingredients of love based on hook’s ideology and how the portrayal of love during childhood can impact how it shows up in our adult lives. The ladies give their thoughts on Valentine’s Day as a holiday and what “finding love” really means.
