This Doesn’t Count As Therapy

Love Is A Verb


Listen Later

Imagine if we all treated love as an action rather than just a fleeting emotion. This week on "This Doesn't Count as Therapy," we draw from Dr. Bell Hooks' seminal work, "All About Love," to challenge the conventional wisdom about love and relationships. By redefining love as a verb, we explore how commitment, responsibility, and intentional effort can transform our connections with others. 

This episode is a heartfelt call to show up intentionally in all our interactions, to celebrate the diverse ways love manifests beyond romance.
