In today's episode, we explore the concept of unconditional love and its connection to sustainability and self-love. We discuss the importance of setting boundaries and not depleting one's own love and energy by constantly giving to others. Refilling your own cup and prioritizing self-care helps prevent burnout. I also touch on the significance of choosing quality over quantity in friendships and relationships, and the illusion of social hierarchies and societal expectations, as well. Ultimately, I believe that unconditional love is possible when one takes the time to love and care for themselves first. Listen to learn how to do just that. :)   Takeaways:
