101 Live Your Love Story: The Point Is Always Love

“Live Your Love Story” is our motto, but what exactly are we thinking when we say that? This episode, we focus on the idea that “the point is always love.” Stories and ideas we share in this ep include: how Toast has created fights in our relationship (!) “Seek first to understand, then to be understood.” - Stephen Covey training in speaking and writing vs. training in listening listening so that your own feelings are influenced “All human behavior as one two things: either love, or a call for love.” - Marianne Williamson   The blog post for this episode is at https://sienaandtoast.com/podcast/101-live-your-love-story-the-point-is-always-love Join the email list at https://sienaandtoast.com/emailsignup –––– Our intention has always been to uplift, entertain, and encourage people, especially fellow LGBTQers and progressive allies around the world, ever since we first started podcasting in 2007. Over the years, we’ve continued to get messages from listeners who’ve shared how it’s helped them through difficult times, like coming out, rejection from family, dealing with religion, or living in the closet, helping them feel more understood, less alone, and just kept them going, reminding them and showing them, that life is worthwhile. That’s exactly why we do it. We managed to self-finance the podcast since 2007. For 13 years! But now, we’re extending an invitation, and a way for you, the listener, to play a part in supporting it.
